Political Coalitions game (Round 4)

Lowell · Post Post #66 (isolation #0) » Wed Feb 02, 2011 12:08 am

Anyone feeling left out can join Lowell's FACEPUNCH coalition next round. You shall have the last laugh.

As soon as I finish my party incorporation papers, that is....

I think I'm replacing Ultima. As the new Pirate Party head I'll review what's going on.

Lowell aka new Ultima supports the plan above.

chenhsi - 40% = 176M
Twistedspoon - 25% - 110M
Zang - 25% - 110M
yabbaguy - 10% - 44M

I can bid lower if people want to get competitive.

I'll do this for 20M.

Won't back out, either... gets me back to even.

@hopp- can you tell us how the random numbers are distributed? There seems to be a weight towards 1 and 2s, just wondering how pronounced it was.

Lowell · Post Post #119 (isolation #6) » Mon Feb 07, 2011 9:07 pm

or chensi's 114 for that matter.

Meh someone get me in on this. I'll do anything for 30M.

I guess I don't understand this game. Why would Drench agree to this proposal?

Well not really. Basically we're all even again if you refuse and the pot rolls over (and you'd be ahead of folks who paid more for campaigning), but you're getting $20 on a $60 investment if you accept.

Anyway, just my take. Could be I'm just jealous

.

Anyway, even though I'm losing, this is a great concept for a game.

I've been thinking about how to run this with party preferences (aka assign all parties "right", "left", "center-left" or something like that in a way that priveleges certain kinds of coalitions over others), but can't quite think of a way to make it work as smoothly as this. Any ideas?

Just idle chit-chat while I await my one seat in the new parliament.

Also,

mod

, I'd like to change my name to the

FACEPUNCH Party

. It feels luckier.

Drench (5)- $40
zang (5)- $80
Lowell (4)- $60
gandalf (2)- $40

There, I can do this better than yabba this round. I'll buy you guys another round AFTER this one and get zang more money. VERY good for all of us.

Lowell · Post Post #172 (isolation #12) » Mon Feb 14, 2011 12:25 pm

Yah just want to make sure zang is in. No reason to make this more complicated than it needs to be. If we can get this done with four players, we should.

Lowell · Post Post #180 (isolation #13) » Mon Feb 14, 2011 9:03 pm

zang, you want to come give this plan your blessing? Let's all pocket some bling and get on to round 4.

Lowell · Post Post #182 (isolation #14) » Mon Feb 14, 2011 9:10 pm

Meh, kinda want someone who

needs

to be in or they're out of the game. Safer for all of us, I've learned.

Lowell · Post Post #223 (isolation #15) » Sat Feb 19, 2011 12:41 pm

Clearly I'm terrible at this game.

Yeah, because Tony is obviously the biggest threat here.
Yeah, cause Lowell and Zang are SOOOOOOOO charismatic.

Heh. Dude, wtf, unnecessary. Let me lose with my dignity intact.
