Good idea, The Conservative Club can be the, well, conservatives. The Imperialist club can be the Org Imperial Party or sumting like that, i like it!
I think it would be very fun. Of course it would just be for kicks..
Yeah, if we take it seriously then I fear from Pindar's strong stance against us rebelious atheists. :eeeek:
Hey, BP, that'll be the BEST you can hope for from the Conservative Party. Imagine your sorry lot in life if we nominate and run Kaiser through? :devil: ~D
Never fear any .org government would surely meet the headsman axe when Tosa our fearless despot finds out about any attempt to organize into a political body. ~D
I can already see a civil war brewing ~D .
Lets do it ~:)Quote:

If you vote for me, and I seize power, I can guarantee certain 'benefits' :deal:
If not, and it is found out by the secret axe-wielding Gah police, well... :hanged:
No, I don't think so, it will suddenly turn into a corrupt state... (the moderators have to much power, having election on their side will make them....i don't know...God!!) ~;)Quote:

1) We should demonstrate our political prowess by holding an election
2) The "in love with the idea phase" where everyone waxes on like Solon himself
3) people begin to organize along clique lines... left, right, nihilist, etc.
4) a few outliers make a couple of jokes like the "beer party" and the "yay-boobs" party.
5) everyone realizes the outliers probably have the best idea after all.
6) we all go drink beer and look at boobs. The election has yet to be held.
But hey, let's actually DO it for once before we go scuttle off to drink beer and oggle boobs (sorry Prole).

I'm running for the technocratic party then. No more lawyers that endlessly discuss the wording of irrelevant law proposals anymore, but engineers designing a better future for all us .orgers !
:scholar:
Not a good idea. We have already far to many boxes here.
Aren't there any political topics left? What happaned to that war our American comrades fought? Is it still going on? Or this bad guy? Why isn't he arrested or killed?
I've just taken over the telephone exchange as an anachronistic prelude to a revolution.
Isn't it a bit problematic that we have different views of what certain political parties want?
For instance here in Denmark a Liberal is a market capitalist to some extent, while in UK and US he is a PC lover. A conservative is in fact a conservative, he wants the society to stay as it is, with a general stance towards a more significant market society. And I could go on.
So while I'm a liberal market socialist (I think that says it well), I would not get the votes I wanted, yet the votes I got would be from people I don't have much in common with. And it can be applied the other way round too...
I just think I'm going to be independant, or form the Freedom Party or something.
viva la revolucion !!! :army:Quote:

I guess that'll do since my first pick Supreme High Evisceratrix is a bit lengthy for a title.

I'll aways have a soft spot for Victorian elegance. Not sure how else I could work in a fainting couch.
Not bad at all girl. Can I park my car there too? And uh, who puked on that chair seat? http://matousmileys.free.fr/drink1.gifQuote:

This sounds like fun...
I'll vote for who I feel is the best... I will not a prtizan *Thats for the young and foolish*
I think that the Imperialist club will be happy to enter in coalition with any conservative government of the org. ~:grouphug:
Tories... That should be their name. It just has that imperialistic ring to it, while a nice and to-the-point name.Quote:
