You won Virginia but lost West Virginia as a Democrat? In 2000?

Both Virginia and WV were very close. It came down to like .1 or .2%

I've almost won on Impossible as Romney, but I suck at it. I did it before but now I am forgetting how I did it, anyone have any thoughts?

DOMINATED Clay in 1844 and did better than 99.5% of all other games

They added 1988

And took out 1976.

'76 is still there for me.

I went on easy mode to see how big of a landslide I could get. It might have been even bigger if I had chosen to debate.

I know that even in normal you start with a huge lead in every state but Utah. Was wondering if you found a way to maintain that.

It's impossible to maintain. The playboy thing always hurts you, and it's impossible to win the debate.

It's so weird that Carter can't win the '76 debate, but Dukakis can win in the '88 scenario? That pup don't hunt.

I played as Dukakis and 2 out of 3 times I either lost the debate or it was inconclusive

I just played a Duke game and won the debate so I think the option is still out there.

[NeverAgain]

Wait, have people paid to play the other years?

When the option first came out.

I decided to try and do a fun "easy" Duke game. It transformed into a monolithic Democratic wall. RIP Bush. Utah would have been nice though.

My first Wilson victory on Impossible. It's currently sitting pretty as the highest-ranked Wilson-on-Impossible game in the Hall of Fame...and the only actual victory on that list.

Pres. Woodrow Wilson (D-NJ)/Vice Pres. Thomas R. Marshall (D-IN): 299 Electoral votes, 8,985,352 Popular Votes (48.4%)
Justice Charles Evans Hughes (R-NY)/Sen. Charles W. Fairbanks (R-IN): 232 Electoral Votes, 8,660,280 Popular Votes (46.6%)
Allan Benson/James Hanly/Others: 0 Electoral Votes, 920,527 Popular Votes (5.0%)

Wow! Nice! How did you do it?
