I launched the attack AFTER he rejected my offers, mind...

You launched your attack, whilst I was deciding.

Lewis didn;t vote in this election, had he not been busy we would have been on par with your party Cieran, and this was just from creating a new manifesto.
We have just as much chance as the next person to win the next election, and to top it all off we will be open to coalition[sp?] around then.
But obviously with parties that we feel would work well with us, not the ones that rig elections and insult us the second they don't get their own way :rolleyes:

Yes, but Jack. Remember what happened last time you were in Government? You're never going to make it in, simply because the fact is, the only people who will vote for you are your party and possibly the FVP come a run-off. My party will vote for any party which ISN'T yours. Even the ODP or Boo party would be preferential to yours frankly. And that's four votes already gone to whoever is facing you :)...

I'm fairly sure I was told that the Dingley in Democratia was different to the current one in Ostentia.
New starts tend to be from scratch, that should include the parties and the people.
you were just as much to blame for The Hyrule Scrolls party as I was, and you seem to be doing well for yourself ;)

Just because you and your party are too stubborn to give another chance, doens't mean the rest of the site is ^_^

Jack, I'm doing well for myself because I've done stuff since then. You havn't. You've been an inactive Boo Party minister in Democratia, and that's pretty much the sum of your experience. And you founded a failed party here.

Also, according to your Wiki page, you're the same person.

I'm not...

Why do you think I wanted to keep the P&PP out of government for now?
So we can do something ourselves, gotta start somewhere XD

Experience is gained not given ;)

...Yes, I've been gaining experience for the last year and a half :|. You havn't, you've been only semi-active with little interest in the political department. Because, to be quote honest, and with no false modesty here, I'm a better politician...

How would you know?
As you aid yourself I've not been around.
You have nothing to judge that statement on, other then the stuff back in democratia, where I had you do everything because I was too busy.

We will see how things go, lets see who the better politician is within the next few elections, when we will be near equal in polling votes, the difference being is one of us won't be rigging Posted Image

But you yourself said that experience is gained. Can't gain it if you're not here can you?

I don't know where this idea that I've been rigging elections comes from. Rigging implies covertly changing votes so I won. Have I changed votes? Have I won? I bought in someone who doesn't post but is active. It's not rigging...

The point being that I will be here, and getting involved.
By the election (i no this one then the one after) I'll have the experience and I'll make a fandabydozy prime minister ^_^

Just have faith ;)

No Jack. You're never going to be Prime Minister. A month's experience doesn't mean you can be a Prime Minister. You had a month and a half in Democratia...

To be fair Cieran, he's probably just as likely to become Prime Minister as you are.

Well, as stand in, I shall say this:

I don't think honestly that anybody cares, just so long as it doesn't happen in the future. If it had happened in the past (and in the distant past every party has rigged votes) then it should all be ignored, discounted and so on.

EDIT: in other news, I have a Cabinet Office up and running. Everybody's in, and I think they're all happy. Crisis averted :)

It won't happen in the future and it didn't happen this election, the last, the one before, or the one before. I think as the Boo Party we may have acted illicitly at the one before that, but it wasn't rigging really, more influencing, as the member in question hadn't even been on in six months...
