Revival Proposal

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Im interested in this

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Some random numbers for our parliament... let's say a parliament of 150 seats. This isn't a big country, after all. As for parties... I think we have to have an unclear election result, right? At least to start with. So...

Social Democrats - 54
Popular Movement Party* - 31
Liberal Party** - 23
Pitfarris Nationalist Party - 22
Cooperative Party - 14
Independents - 4
National Patriot Party - 2

Which gives us a parliament without a natural majority and with significant representation for a very wide range of interests.

*I'm assuming that this is Conservative or Christian Democratic in some way.
**I'm assuming that these guys will be fairly right-wing as well.

Is everyone OK with Al's proposal?

I am.

As am I.

I like it!

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I am up for a restart.

I wasn't around for the previous attempts to start this game up, but it seems like a really novel idea; one which people took care to think out beforehand. If there is enough interest, I'd love to help get this thing running again.

I propose that the next mock Parliament be set in an alternate USA with a Westminister system, if this gets off the ground.

Why, we already have an almost done fictional country for this game?
If we want to play in America 2.0 we have Atlasia.

Atlasia is not comparable to the United States. This would be a more serious game, with less randomness. Plus Atlasia has the same system the United States already has.

So I move we create a Mock Parliament Revival Committee of Correspondence to help bring in new players and get this ball rolling.

If there's a desire to do this I'll help out again. I suggest you don't go for a US setting. Indeed it may be better to aim small and perhaps emulate the political system of a small European nation or of the UK/Canada/Australia etc.

The US would need the level of activity Atlasia has. It would be too ambitious of a project.

We could always form our own parties and place summaries into a thread with a poll in the individual politics section to attract more players and get more votes, and award seats based on PR from the results.

Australia sounds good to me. I think a two-three party system is also good to me, and when we get more players, we can always have more parties.

I will claim Gilmore.
