Post-Obama - A Different 2012 (Rules, Sign-up, and OOC thread)

[x-Guy]

Hello everyone! I am just here to spread awareness for another game that's happening as well. We really need more Republicans and Democrats for "War for America." Things are really getting interesting plus if you're able to win the presidency you will be rewarded with a written custom timeline of your candidate's administration and the events that happen! Below is the link to the game! Be sure to post your candidate's announcement speech if you're going to play!

Are you joining this game? If not, I would have preferred it if you had asked me before posting this.

Your game seems good. I'll probably join it. Hope there's no issues.

Is it possible if I can run as South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley? She was elected in 2010.

In my humble opinion, any Governor first elected in 2010, would be at best at a huge disadvantage and at worst unrealistic (which is why I didn't run as Andrew Cuomo).

Hmm..... I am trying to see if there are any other options. I could run as Ron Paul but I want to look into my options. Can someone make a list of potential republicans I could take?

Yes, this is true, but it's still more plausible than some other requests I've recieved (why I granted it). Though, x-guy, if you do want another candidate, you can request it.

y'know what. I might as well stick with Haley. Anyways should I'll post my announcement and schedule on the game and all.

Is it to late for me to do the debate because I'll probably do the next one.

[x-Guy]

Hey guys, I'll probably drop out. I am a lot more busy than I thought.

I’ve really been itching to play a campaign game again. I’ve been thinking of entering the Libertarian Primaries. Might seem like an odd choice but could I join the primary as Jeff Bezos? It will probably make things A LOT more interesting.

You should run as a Democrat since he did say there was an opening for a dark horse there and because the libertarian primary already has three people in it

That actually could be a pretty good idea to be honest. He would run as more of a centrist I’d imagine but would certainly stick out with his business background to build a good base.

[x-Guy]

I think the hole in the Democratic primary is more of a progressive one, and a Centrist entering right now would just cut into Bredesen's base

Keep in mind I still need to do some research on more of his views to really say what kind of candidate he would be but perhaps he could be more of a populist candidate.

Considering the whole was Michelle, and she seemed rather populist, I think that'd be a good idea.  If you can alter him to be a populist progressive I think you could do well.

Alright. Well I guess I’ll run as the Dem dark horse candidate Jeff Bezos.

[x-Guy]

x-guy, nevermind can you just take Penn?  Cause I don't want to have to redo the Libertarian Debate AGAIN, and it'd be far less chaotic than the Dems, who are already kind of set up as Biden v Bredesen

Sorry but I’d say my mind is made up. Sorry to disappoint.

Please god can you just be Penn, Bezos would look like a corporate stooge for the dems anyway, please.

Taking this a bit to seriously don’t ya think? Again my mind is made up.

[x-Guy]

I'm ruling that Besos is not plausible enough.

Dang. Well what can you do.

Choose anyone else

It's just that it would be odd for Bezos, who is not particularly politically active, would jump into an election that is mostly about anti-corporatism.

Eh. Literally got no ideas right now.

Are you completely ruling out Penn?

Don’t plan on running as him. I think I might as well just run as Jerry Brown. I’ll need to do more research on his views though.

[x-Guy]

>Jerry Brown

It's time..

Lol

[x-Guy]

x-Guy needs to confirm first

I’ll be making an announcement as Brown soon and start campaigning next turn.

Now we just need DeMint's schedule posted. Can't wait to debate you x-guy. From the games I hosted, I can tell you're a fighter

Ha! I do enjoy friendly competition every now and then!

Tea Party endorsement has been recalled, it was just a clerical error on my part and the situation has been resolved.

Transit can you respond to my PM on endorsements?

Yep, sorry I've been doing end of term exams, so I haven't checked PMs for about a week now and I probably won't be able to until Friday night, unfortunately.

Nah it’s fine. We all got our live to tend to. I just need to confirm endorsements.

Tennessee is really going to come down to the wire for the GOP.

Something tells me that's not a real poll

Well my assumption isnt really based on the poll. Just by the fact that you have so many sides targeting the state among others is already a sign.
