Chenshi's proposal seems good.
Why? I'm no longer a one-seater, I should be monopolizing my winnings while I can.

Shouldn't it be our goal to bankrupt other parties though?

No, but your a two seated which isn't that much better.

You need a two-seater to make an alliance anyways. Unless you include mister seven seats.

Who said it was random? :wink:

The game this is based off uses a deck of cards to represent the number of seats, which obviously then have to be pre-determined. Just like that, I also just choose numbers on a whim, and if they add to 30, great! Otherwise, I just fiddle with the seat numbers adding 1 here or taking off 2 there until we've got 30.

I personally think it's more interesting if there's a diverse number of seats. I could in some future rounds go for more a more even spread if you wish (but then most people would have 3's). Obviously, if I did, I won't tell you when, or people will just not spend any money campaigning.

Sure, but forming coalitions around that goal is short-sighted. Parties bankrupt themselves.

I am currently comment-less on Tony's proposal. Zang, do you have strong objections?

Totally knew that >.>

Umm, still kind of neutral. If Tony/Twisted/Werewolf all agree on that proposal, then I'll be fine with accepting it.

Erg. To clarify, communication was due to end today (Friday), at 10pm (GMT), despite what I said in my post previously (which was one day early). If you clicked the link, you would have still been taken to a link with the time for Friday. However, I am willing to extend the deadline by one day to compensate for my incompetent organisation if people request so.

Methinks it is a bad idea to announce that you have sent in a coalition proposal.

ROUND 2 - DISCUSSION OVER



To reiterate, this includes communication over PM as well. You now have just under 24 hours to PM me your coalition proposal.

NB: Even if you have no coalition to propse,
PLEASE PM ME TO CONFIRM YOU STILL WISH TO PLAY NEXT ROUND
. If you have already sent me a PM with your coalition proposal/confirmation for the next round, you do not need to PM me again (however you may if you wish to change your proposal).

Spittle flies around the room as people accuse other people of renegaging on agreed deals and of... being terrorists?

Oh well. All's fair in politics.



Result: Coalition Formed!


Australian Socialist's front of Judea Libertarian all of your sex are belong to us
Twistedspoon (4):
$150M
Zang (4):
$150M
Cogito Ergo Sum (2):
$100M
Drench (3):
$20M
werewolf555 (3):
$20M

Huge kudos to CES for pocketing $100M with just 2 seats.

Once the people realise that the government is happy to just sit and let the money roll in, they promptly call for yet another election.


Pot:
$220m


You now have just under 24 hours to PM me an amount between $0m and however much money you have remaining (in a multiple of $20m) for the amount of money you wish to spend campaigning. Each $20m gets you one extra 'ticket' when the number of seats won is determined. PM's must be to me by 10pm, Monday 14 February (GMT).

You do not need to PM me if you cannot spend any money, however, I did not recieve (or recieved and lost) coalition proposals from Lowell or gandalf5166, so you two
must
PM me to confirm that you still wish to play.

NB: The coaltion proposed actually was not completely unanimous: all but Zang had CES getting $90M rather than $100M (which actually would have a total of $430M as opposed to $440M). It was obvious that they all wanted the same coalition though.
