Criticism & Compliments:
The mini event brought a mix reaction that appeared far more negative than positive. This is due to Diedrich being viewed as a nuisance and has been dubbed a Troll by Gaians. Other Gaians got in on the joke and made proposal threads to rally votes for Diedrich and Friedrich, as well as other not nominated NPC. Popular alternate suggestions for candidates were Waffles the Cat and Carl the Elk.

Those who enjoyed the event liked the flash debate and the item involving Diedrich in a binder, a parody to the quote "Binders full of women." Despite the negative postings being more frequent, Diedrich still manages to pull in those who are fans of his presence.
