| Used to possess one of the longest sigs on the Board (although there was another user with about a 30 line one), though none have pointed out to him that most of it is **||||||||**. Has since modified it, and it is much shorter now, but contains just as much somehow. We think he has used some sort of space continuum compression method to do this, but anyway, it still has **||||||||** in it if people don't use Japanese/Korean/Chinese fonts. | Used to possess one of the longest sigs on the Board (although there was another user with about a 30 line one), though none have pointed out to him that most of it is **||||||||**.

| On AH.com, he joined the [[offtopic:EVIL Party]] after thinking about joining the [[offtopic:Yorkshire Socialist Party]] since he's a resident of [[offtopic:Yorkshire]]. Noting however, that the YSP had become the [[offtopic: British Social-Imperialist Party]] and that [[offtopic:Thande]] wasn't around, he joined the EVIL Party instead as it was the most natural choice after all, offering platforms close to his heart such as [[offtopic:Booze]], [[offtopic:Porn]] and Byzantium. | On AH.com, he joined the [[offtopic:EVIL Party]] after thinking about joining the [[offtopic:Yorkshire Socialist Party]] since he's a resident of [[offtopic:Yorkshire]].

| Midgard left despite the fact he won the Presidency vote. So, Sargon, as the new leader of the EVIL Party, took the position of Acting President. Sargon ran for the Presidency to get the full role of the position in the upcoming '08 elections. Sargon's Presidency has been notable with the [[Sargon Doctrine]], increased wiki activity, [[offtopic:ah.com_politics#legislation|increased legislation]] in [[offtopic:ahcom_Parliament|Parliament]] and the lowing annoyingness of n00bs. | Midgard left despite the fact he won the Presidency vote.

| Midgard later returned to the Boards, and thus assumed the Presidency. Theoretically, Sargon should have been [[offtopic:ahcom_vp|Vice President]], but due to Midgard's hands-off approach, it seems Midgard wass happy enough for him to continue as Acting President in his name at that time. In the 2008 elections, Sargon was elected the third President of Ah.com by a overwhelming margin of 60% of cast votes. After an eventful year Sargon chose not to run for a further term as President due to Real Life health issues, and instead went into semi-retirement for a while. | Midgard later returned to the Boards, and thus assumed the Presidency.

| An avid watcher of //Babylon 5//, he has long be rumoured to have a desire to write a fanfic based upon it. He has gone a step further however and is also penning a work called [[http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=168216|Babylon 5: Fleet of the Mentor - An Alternate Universe Crossover]]. Although it has gathered a lot of interest, he has kept his readers guessing as to the nature of just exactly what it is crossed with.
