Saruku registered and condemned Young Kim, when asked to do so the Federalist and Labor nominees refused to condemn Young Kim. Saruku also condemned David I*e, and spoke in favorable terms about Jon Tester and Dean Heller. Saruku also got an avatar, while the Federalist and Labor nominees did not.

Windjammer appointed him GM after he was told Labor is a Marxist party in a PM mistakenly sent to him and registered. After he was disappointed with the results of the election in which yet another authoritarian chauvinist claimed victory, he simulated a terrorist attack to kill everyone in the line of succession and assumed the presidency.

Look for desperate Feds to nominate Saruku in June while Yankee is too distracted defending Edmund Burke on the History board to stop them. It would not be the first time they backed a candidate who violently opposes everything they stand for because "Labor bad"!

I resent the implication that Feds have ever nominated someone while I was distracted unless you count being sick as distracted in which case you can...

Also I was fine with YT running I just didn't think he would do it.

Of course you are talking about Siren.

I can't wait now for the argument to be between Yankee and a Laborite to be determined (probably Truman) about the federalists. Tongue

There isn't going to be an argument. I supported Siren and Muaddib and I have no regrets about it. They made a compelling argument on small business and I am not going to let some misguided rl litmus test get in the way of a possibly good ticket.

Well I did not want to say "because Yankee is too sick to log onto Discord" in case I really do have powers of foresight! (edit: I said "distracted" because I don't want to joke about something more serious keeping you from giving the game your full attention. I was not trying to allude to real events from this or any other election.)

I was actually thinking of the time when y'all ranked an actual Trotskyist ahead of moderate Laborite Talleyrand for Northeast Senate, but of course there are many more recent examples of this phenomenon.

Yankee knows that whatever our differences, I will always prefer him and his party to the crooked Dishonest Alliance. At least the Feds have a raison d'être besides prolonging their members' flaccid careers. Wink

Oh really! You of all people going to pull this line about Talleyrand one of the biggest atlasforumIRC shills around back then! I would have back any anti irc candidate over an irc and you know damn well why. You think they became bad when they screwed you over? Two years of victims corpses lining that road ahead of you.

Talleyrand was no damn moderate on the issues I cared about. He supported every issue that we militantly opposed emanating out of AtlasforumIRC, supported TNF for PPT, spearheaded the disinformation campaign that promoted TNF's campaign for PPT, supported judicial term limits after turno-Pacifico, supported Turno-Pacifico itself.

He was a "radical" from June 2013 onwards, and we treated him as such. I didn't give two flying F@%%s what his "RL" views were, just like I didn't give a crap what Oakvale's ideology had evolved IRL at the time. I don't even remember who his opponent was, and don't care. If I was rooting for Adam againts Foucaulf, why the hell would I back Talleyrand?

In December 2013, we even considered him a "radical Laborite" and celebrated that the At-large contained only one such Senator, along with being 3/5 Conservative.

My memory is as good as ever, fortunately! But we both know y'all's opposition to #atlasforum types did not extend so far as to include when those individuals ran for office again as Federalists! We are both members of fundamentally self-interested political machines who will ally with anyone to win —Labor merely has the luxury of being more choosy.

Oh for the love of good Truman. You are really playing this line?

Once Talleyrand was too far ahead of Pikachu to lose thanks to you guys by the way for the most part, he ate up much of Labor's zombie base. I voted for Talleyrand, played up unity and all that crap knowing damn well he had lied to us. The point was to convince our newbies and people who might full for his crap that. We then pushed a series of repeal TNF stuff bills all coordinated with Adam Griffin. Griffin would veto them and then Talleyrand would have vote Aye on them twice, of course as I recall, he fell for the trap and voted no. I then PMed the paper trail to every Fed demonstrating he was a fraud.

We were then going to squeeze him out in December.

If there is one thing that could cause me to put you on the same level as Oakvale and the boys back in the day. It is joking about my health to score cheap points in game. I respect you a lot, have some class and DON'T THROW IT AWAY!!!

Remember what I said in 2017, become are not born Oakvale, they become Oakvale. Oakvale was just a normal centrist politician in 2010-2012.

Most everything that happened in late 2015 was the result of a plan involving Adam, Windjammer, Duke, PiT and myself.

Including your own election to the Senate in August 2015. Tongue It was all about squeezing Atlasforum types out for fear they would wreck the Con-Con. That is why Adam was in AtlasforumIRC with me when we caught Bacon King engaging in the compromising behavior. I convinced him to help me get votes (Gustaf) out for Rfayette, because Maxwell was all over the map at that point and unreliable for anything. One day a marxist, the next day pretending to be Trump. The one thing we did know for sure, knee deep in AtlasforumIRC

If you mean Matt From VT? Yes, not a single regret about those second prefs. Matt was and is a decent guy and I have a great deal of respect for him, especially since we both went through a lot of terrible IRL crap around the same time frame.

Also worth remembering that Matt was one of the ex Libertarians like Leinad and had been a Fed less than a year prior.

Maybe we should run Oakvale against Truman to show him a lesson. I'd be fully on board with that!
