No.

e: Can we please not forget how boring the game had gotten pre-dissolution - literally every race would end with a small but comfortable JCP victory.

I think an organized merging into two big parties is as silly as dissolution was. Let parties do as they wish. The People's Party has no plans to disband or join a major party. We are pleased with our performance this early in our life.

The thing is, the RPP and JCP were never formed to be huge parties. They became huge due to other party's decisions. If it happens again, it happens, but I oppose some structural merging of all the parties into two major ones.

If the game continues to devolve into personality parties then we might as well.

Yes, your personality does have quite a negative effect on your otherwise stellar party.

No, we need to bring back the days of one-party rule.  We could use a United Atlasia party!

I second this! But was there ever an era of one-party rule?

The whole reason I founded the Silly Party was to combat the big parties and make room for more. In the previous Atlasia, my whole reason for existence was hating how one dimensional it had gotten.

If that happens again, I won't even bother to fight it, I'll just leave.

Or how about we restore the old Democratic and Republican parties that we had until spring 2005?  That would be just as good a proposal as this.

Agreed.  I'm glad we have lots of neewbies in the game now, but believe us old codgers, two-party politics is not the way to go.

what if we were to dissolve all parties alltogether, its a better idea than this, and elections are decided by policies instead of parties.
