GoTFan requested an extension, due to a something personal. Thus, there will be a one week extension for everyone.

Can I have Congressman Anthony Gonzalez?

Granted.

For those who have joined the game after the posting of the First Turn, feel free to post your answers to the General questions as well as your opening and closing statements. You can also post your announcement speeches on the Gameplay Thread.

But thank you for joining, everyone. Never thought this game would be so moderately big on just the first term.

Also, did I mention Trump tweets will be a major part of the game? Every turn, a new Trump tweet will happen and this will allow each player to react to them in their own way.

Not really. The guy got accused of sexual assault and is definitely finished politically nowadays. Also, if you can get at least 20 posts, you can have someone else.

Reminder : Please, everyone, the google docs link I have posted are important to this game's mechanics, as in the congress and primary timeline. Please look at them when doing stuff so I don't have to explain much. It helps us all when you do so.

apologies if I seem rude.

For all players, I have an interesting idea. We all know digital media is on the rise while msm is on the decline, so by 2024, digital media outlets such as Louder with Crowder, The Daily Wire, The Young Turks, and The David Pakman Show could have real influence in the elections via the news. So, how would it sound for you to decide whether you can have an interview on MSM or Digital Media and choose the outlet you're going on (Though The Young Turks will likely ban Rubio, Shapiro, and the like because those guys are pathetic).

Of course, tho, someone like Shapiro can't be interviewed on the Daily Wire because that's his website, his company, but he can be interviewed elsewhere.

How does this idea sound? (Yes, this includes the Joe Rogan Podcast)

I think it's a great idea. A nice way of modernizing campaigning. Even the 2020 candidates right now are doing this sort of tactic in real life.

Yep. Just PM for the interview.

So you say, and I expected it, that it would be easier for me to get an interview with Fox News or CNN than with The Young Turks as they are pure left-wing?

That and they are literally the type of people that will despise republicans no matter what they do.

S019 has requested been granted an extension to Sunday. If you haven't posted your schedule, debate answers, ads, and endorsements, now is the time to do it.

Can this be the final extension for this turn? It’s already been extended a week, and I’m looking forward to this game really gearing up!

Yeah, it will be. I'll start writing up the next turn Saturday afternoon at the latest and post the next turn at 7:30 PM EST on Sunday.

Can I actually change to Lindsey Graham? I just feel he is a much stronger candidate post-Trump

Cruz has already taken him as an endorsement, sadly.

Everyone, you have until 7:30 PM EST tomorrow to post your debate answer, your schedule, your ads, and ask for endorsements. If nothing is posted by your candidate, your polling will suffer.

Just posted a poll. The results of the poll will determine which News Org will cover the Primary results as well as the results on Election Night and give State by State reporting as the Election comes to a close.

Turn II is open for business everyone. If anyone is curious why I gave an additional 15 minutes, Alancia was in the process of typing everything up and asked me for another few minutes, which I granted. ANyways, hope you enjoy the new turn, everyone.

November 7th of 2023 or you mean the Iowa caucuses will be posted on next November 7th?

November 7th, 2023 (I figured out election dates)

Ah okay, so that also includes the 2023 gubernatorial elections and the special in UT-04.

Yep.

Fox will also cover the Primary results for both parties, campaign analysis bits, and 2024 Election Night as the participants voted for it in a plurality.

(BTW, thanks to all who voted and remember, this turn ends on the 15th. If anyone needs a day or two day extension, however, let me know.

Do I post my starting schedule here or in gameplay thread?

Also, what are the dates for this turn?

Recommend you post it in the Gameplay thread since we're on Turn 2 already.

September 1st-30th 2023, though Turn 3 (October 1st-31st, 2023) is literally going to start tomorrow.

Would it be okay if I just post my Turn 2 and Turn 3 today?

Also, can I pm you for some endorsements?

Post Turn 2 today. Wait until after Turn three has been posted in full tomorrow to do those.

The next debates will happen in Turn 3 everyone.

Can I play as Senator Rick Scott? GOP and FL.

Senator Scott has already endorsed VP Rubio. Would you like to play as someone else in the game that is shown in the docs?

I do have some suspicions and apologies if I am assuming incorrectly. It is just highly suspicious that two new accounts wind up going to this game and asking to sign up before doing anything else.

Reserving these suspicions, however, both are granted for the time being. For your sake and the sake of my own trust, please, neither of you be socks.

Sorry for my suspicions. I hope you both can understand.

So, I had an idea while listening to Kung Fu Panda 1's Kung Fu Fighting : With the start of every turn, I mention something not politically involved, such as a new Movie that's really big coming out or something to that affect and I can add in a fun little general question for the debates that a candidate can choose to answer or not on the culture thing. What does everyone think of this idea?
