Waiting, mostly because I want to see how this combination of ranting and anger is different from that which is seen throughout your other posts.

LOL

Don't worry, something will be posted before I sleep.

Mind posting something before I sleep?

And his time zone is a lot later than ours too. Nocturnal freak!

     Hey, don't knock being nocturnal until you try it. Tongue

Hey it was a joke. Check my posting stats.

     I was joking too. I remember being on late at night & seeing you on too.

     I always thought of it more as an alliance for the sake of an interesting game. Truth is, now that there won't be a unity ticket between the RPP & the DA, Lief has been re-elected to another term.

     I will change my sig to include a note of my prognostication failure for a year if Lief or whomever else the JCP candidate may be gets any less than 60% in the final round.

     As a side note, this will be the third October in a row where the result of the Presidential election has been a foregone conclusion.

I'd caution against speculation like that, since many in the JCP, including myself, thought PiT was going to win handily last time.

     Only because of our then alliance with the DA. If the overwhelming majority of them didn't vote for the ticket with one of their own, Lief would have won fairly easily.

I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with that statement, winning is only a positive side effect of good game play. The process itself is what's fun.

True. I had a lot of fun running in the Pacific even though I lost, though I do hope to win some.

     Yeah, though after a while fait accompli elections can only be so much fun. You need either competitive elections or you have to have fun some other way.

Wouldn't it be more fun if we just stayed friendly and ran our campaigns without this contant arguing?

     Agreed! Smiley

Almost the same as my vote, except instead of afleitch, I voted for Vepres.

It's not the vote, it's the voter. The "Hamilton, tell me what to do!" voter.

Wtf? I'm not even in the ARC you brainless moron.

     He was talking about segwaystyle, not you.

     I feel like the current state of affairs is quickly becoming a replay of the feud between bgwah & Xahar, only on the anti-left rather than the left.

     Xahar was the greatest thing since sliced bread until you found out he was in contact with Hamilton (something I thought was already common knowledge), eh? Tongue

     I definitely agree that reinstituting the budget as it was once conceived would be a grave error. At the same time, I fail to see the point of "nobody would care". Very few people outside of the government really care about the bills the Senate passes, but I'm not sure many people would say that having the Senate discuss bills is a mistake.

     I have no clue how the case against Antonio V even materialized. As I understand it, he only changed the color of the Populares on their wiki page. Unless he was changing it to puke or something, it doesn't seem like something that would damage them in the least.

     Last time I checked, criminal cases generally do not get prosecuted unless harm or the potential for harm exists. Not to mention this case specifically requires malice. According to the Fourth Edition of the American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, malice refers to:

     Note in particular the second definition. As far as I know, Atlasian law uses the same definition of malice as American law does. How changing the Populares's color to a slightly different shade of green could possibly be a wrongful act that would result in their harm is as of yet unclear to me.

Haha, how stupid do you think you readers are? Sewer Socialist is not and never has been a JCP insider nor does he have a red avatar nor is he a personal ally of yours. Tony is all of those things, as well as a loyal partisan hack and social democrat.

Vandalizing the Wiki page of an opposing party 13 times over a four month period, after being repeatedly asked to stop, is inherently malicious.


But it's okay, since the precedent has been set, I guess I'll be deciding what's best for the JCP's Wiki article from now on.

     How did his actions cause your party harm?

Uh, vandalizing our party page to contain incorrect information? Forcing me to constantly sign on to the AtlasWiki having to undo his vandalism in a Wiki edit war lasting over four months? How is this okay with you?

One hell of a can of worms has been opened up with this ruling.

     If the incorrect information is of a wholly trivial nature, there is nothing obligating you to bother with changing it back right away. So tell me, what did he do besides changing your party's color?
