Vote Purple State/Marokai Blue in June!

[Purple State]

Good news I wish you both the best of luck. If something stirs, if you think you can seize the moment and make a difference then you should. I can't say anymore as I've not yet thought about what I'll be doing (depends on a few real life issues) come the next race.

Your encouragement is greatly appreciated.

I also want to thank everyone else who has provided positive comments so far. I look forward to working with all of you in the coming months.

You had me until the running mate, sorry.

While I know people may disagree with my running mate, I think you would be hard-pressed to find a more active and hard-working person in this game than Marokai. This ticket won't be about hyperpartisanship, but about hyperactivity. I hope that is something you can eventually get behind.

As a member of the current administration it wouldn't be appropriate for me to comment much, though this certainly wouldn't be a bad ticket. I do, however, have some concerns; essentially, I'm not sure if it's appropriate for either of you to run for partisan office while remaining in your current - politically sensitive - posts. It is true that there's form for this sort of thing, but that was actually highly controversial. I'm not suggesting that you both resign immediately, but I do think that a timeframe of some kind would be advisible.

I will continue to serve as GM in as non-partisan a manner as possible (as I always do). If the President believes that the campaign is interfering with my ability to do my job as GM, I will understand if he replaces me.

As for Marokai, I agree and there are currently discussions underway to create clear and public guidelines for his recusal from cases that may be of relevance to the campaign.

Must say I have one key complain as a partisian hack. Why JCP, which is regaining a key position, is accepting a role of junior partner to party which get their asses badly beaten last election, was kicked out of Northeast and is not in good condition at large?

If some should be V.P. nominee, that should be DA-er. JCP-er should led the ticket. As much as I respect Purple State, that's weird.

And are unity ticket working at all? Just don't start with Afletisch/Smid, they were insurgent against their own parties. Bgwah/Meeker and Lief/BC were able to win on all-JCP ticket. BC/HW was a fiasco.

This is true. The machine ought to be able to push whomever it wants on the voters.

I will admit that I struggled with this and so did some other JCPers, but this ticket isn't about party, it's a statement that the JCP isn't obsessed with power as some people think we are, and a recognition on my part that activity, intelligence, dedication, should not be bound by party affiliation. I believe Purple State and I can be a force for good in office, and an effective left-wing ticket for that matter, and that's really what matters, to me.

Also, Meeker was once part of the RPP. When Bgwah and Meeker first ran for office, it was a unity ticket.

Ok, it's not about I have any issues about Purple State or you politically. But I don't want situation from last election to repeat.

[Marokai Backbeat]

I don't think we will repeat those mistakes. PS and I are extremely active and hardworking individuals in Atlasia. The BK/HW ticket was a good ticket, but got off to an iffy start to say the least. Don't worry, Kal, this isn't a ticket of unity for the sake of unity, not to suggest the others were, but a ticket of two extraordinarily qualified individuals that happened to be of different parties.

Ok, you have my vote anyway

[Vepres]

So a vote for one of my favorite Atlasians is also a vote for Marokai. Oh, why must I suffer so!

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

I guess the picture will become clearer when we find out whether Aflietch and Smid are going to run for reelection. I have no doubt you two will be active executives though.

Just to echo this, I don't want this race to be about party politics or petty personalities. Marokai and I are running on our combined experience, our past accomplishments and, most importantly, our activity.

If you want an executive that will follow and respond to the issues of the day, take a role in policy and put forth a solid agenda, this is your ticket.

I do not necessarily doubt your ability to be non-partisan while handling much of the news, but I would certainly feel much more comfortable with someone else taking over the helm as GM during the campaign. Or, at the very least, a hiatus from posting in your GM capacities during the final weeks.

FWIW, this is one JCPer whose fine with Purple State at the head of a unity ticket. It's about the person rather than the party, and PS will be a great president regardless of what banner he campaigns under.

I don't think this will bias his duties as GM anymore than simply holding political positions already do, and no one cares about that, do they? Atlasia is a game and impartiality is, really impossible. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but people need to be a little more fair about things. Purple State and I have been planning this for some time now, and I haven't seen any change in his reporting.

If you don't want him anymore, we will gladly take him back. After all you were the repository for many of our members who felt unwelcomed in previous situations. However such recovery of lost membership would be highly selective.

We are in a crap hole? Our guy just got the most first preferences votes when he was considered the weakest incumbent running with a good chance of losing. Dream on Kal. What am I worried about, the more these fools say this the more powerful I get?

I don't want to argue with Hashy, I haven't the time nor do I see the profit. I was making a sarcastic joke.
