Is there going to be an election for king? Does this mean anything or is it purely symbolic?

BTW in case anyone is interested which I doubt here is my formula for deciding who to vote for. I carefully consider the persons dress and the scenery in their picture then factor in the level of dedication which they show for this game based upon their stated prestige honor and playing time. Then I give special weight to any humor or personality conveyed in their profile. Finally I discard all this worthless crap and vote for whoever has the highest combined hot/****ty rating.
