History

Studying at Electoral College

Before Alec Tinn became known to Toontown, he studied the arts of calculating the number of votes. After he accidentally predicted the exact value of votes for a Cannon game construction, Alec Tinn realized that it was his calling and studied at Electoral College to earn his master's in his innovative major of "Compulsive Vote Adding Engineer".

Toon Council Presidential Elections

"Come one, come two, COME ALL to the most important event in the history of our fair town: The Toon Council Presidential Elections!"

Alec Tinn was eventually appointed by the Toon Council to host the Toon Council Presidential Elections where Flippy and Slappy would run for president. He had not introduced himself until February 15, 2014, where he announced on the Toontown blog that he would host the election. On that day, he and several Toon Troopers began preparing for the event by setting up decorations all around Toontown Central, and they kept all Toons up-to-date on the latest happenings with the event.

On the day of the Toon Council Presidential Elections being held, Alec Tinn walked on stage with Flippy and Slappy as they exited out of Toon Hall. Alec Tinn used the Grand Electoral Counters to announce Flippy and Slappy's votes, and announced Slappy as the elected Toon Council president. When the Cogs initiated Doomsday, Alec Tinn hid behind the Toontown Bank until the invasion ended.

Continuing to host

"My name is Alec Tinn, and I'm the one they have around here for every vote that goes on in Toontown."

Alec Tinn's role as as elector was not over with the Toon Council Presidential Elections. Besides rare occasions like making a small appearance during ToonFest 2014, Alec Tinn continued to host events such as the Toontown Species Election in which he was responsible for counting votes.

Trivia

  • His name is a pun on "electing". Joey stated at OMG!Con 2015 that he created the pun while thinking in the shower.
  • According to Joey, the moment during Doomsday where Alec Tinn hid behind the Toontown Bank was inspired by a scene from Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.[1] Joey stated that this moment was character development for Alec Tinn in which he is "loud and proud on the outside" but "quite scared on the inside".
