In order to avoid a long lull like this happening again, I reccommend that a day before the turn is finished to write a basic outline for the state polls, debates, and National poll and then factor in last minute information once the current turn is closed so you can be ready to post the next turn.

That is what I did last time, but I accidentally closed the tabs in which my drafts were on. I need to be more careful next time.

At the post which I posted at the beginning of the second (the current) turn.


The user, thefoxatnight, who has Butterfield has not been active on this forum for more than a week, thus either he/she has no interest in the forum anymore, or its a puppet of someone.

It make no sense for the players to decide when their own stuff goes viral.

I unfortunately can not mandate or make rules on minor stuff like this. Note however, that no matter how many views or how many people attended or liked your rally, it doesn't affect the polls.

when the Caucuses and primaries happen, will county maps be posted or just the overall result?
I can only really do overall result.

Jindal is in. Nice to see wx has jumped in!


I'm not letting Hannity in because I really want every candidate to have an equal chance of winning, and clearly Hannity would not be getting above 6% in this game and wouldn't really be adding anything constructive to it so I'm going to veto this one.

Turn closed. If you are still working on something, you may finish it. (I'm not as strict as Lumine.)

Can I be an Independent Jeb Bush or Jimmy Carter or George H.W. Bush

Jeb Bush is a republican, and Carter is a former president, and so is Bush.

Jeb Bush is a republican, and Carter is a former president, and so is Bush.

While I am unsure on their chances, Jeb would not be the first person to be in one party, only to run under a third. George Wallace was a democrat who went to a third party in 68, teddy did it in 1912, and both Carter and daddy bush only had one term so could still run.

Well, for realisms sake, I am going to say that Jeb Bush is only available as a republican.

Can I get Mondale Quayle Bob Dole Dick Cheney or Al Gore  as an Indy?

As I have said, no. All of those figures are major alignments with a major party. Realism is valued in this game.

What time exactly? I don't really keep track of time. Only the amount of days I got.
