I don't know if anybody feels this way, but i am so tense with all of this Convention stuff going on right now. Especially since there's still two days until the update.

Conventions until the 70s were always a tense affair, one step away from another 1924 DNC, so it's obvious it'd be tense, but I think that's what makes it fun

Also, it gives us things to do as we wait for the next turn.

Oh yeah i definitely agree with both of those things. I still have a post that i am writing at the moment.

When we get to the 70's the primaries will be a lot more interactive, the only reason they're not as much now is because they didn't have a super big effect on the nominating process, i.e. Kefauver in real life and in-game in 1952, Kennedy in the game, and a few other examples. Though with no 2/3 majority required it's not really possible for a 1924 Scenario to occur.

Sorry, I meant to finish it last night, but I had a pretty bad headache.

That's understandable. Migranes/headaches are seriously the worst thing to deal with while typing.

A day or two's delays is not death. Though I'd like an update today.

Apologies but I'll have to drop out for now. Life is getting towards me and I have an idea to either host an election game or a history game and I can't be playing two games while hosting another without making me rip my own hair out from the stress. I do have two ideas for an Antiquity Historical Game (Two, in fact, though one is more Character Driven than the other, arguably) and I'll post the thread and poll for that in a few minutes. I hope everyone will understand this.

That's understandable. You will be missed as you were a great player throughout.

Sad to see you go, good luck with your future endeavors.

The new turn will be up tomorrow night, I will be including Senator Jackson + co. in the story, but he won't be going for the Presidency, unless NTP joins back.

I've decided to join back in until at least the 1960 election is over and done with, to keep everything consistent with the story and such. If my 2012 game doesn't pick up any momentum and gains more players in the next two days, I'll fully rejoin this game in earnest. Hopefully I'm making sense when saying this.

Totally, glad to have you back for this time. Hopefully you'll be back fully

I hope so. I'm quite liking writing a disillusioned idealist.
