Senate Protest and Analysis Thread

[Хahar 🤔]

One week out is when absentee voting begins.

[Meeker]

So was Earl just late in putting up the absentee booth? Why were SPC and gporter denied ballot access?

[Хahar 🤔]

They filed less than a week before that. Or something.

I like the early deadlines; it forces people to tip their hand.

[Meeker]

My point is that the only reason we have filing deadlines in real life is because it takes a while to print up ballots, voters pamphlets, etc. There's no reason that we can't have the filing deadline right up until the opening of the absentee booth in this game though.

[Хahar 🤔]

Yes, but it adds a different dynamic; you can't test the waters too long, you either go or you don't.

[Meeker]

But that's stupid and I don't like it.

[Хahar 🤔]

I do.

But it's not a big deal.

[DownWithTheLeft]

Could someone introduce a bill that abolishes filing deadlines, or at least makes them much more reasonable? There's no reason for them to be so far out from the opening of polls.

I believe my last bill cut it down, but that might have just been registering deadlines.  I think I'll introduce a 48 hour limit

Hey! When I invented that name I was referring to Keystone Phil!

What happened with the filing deadline? Sorry I was offline for three days. The filing deadline is supposed to be a week before elections begin. The absentee booth is supposed to open as soon as practicable after the filing deadline but has often been ignored in the past.

Is Xahar capable of being an objective prosecutor against Ben, given their history?

[Хahar 🤔]

Is Xahar capable of being an objective prosecutor against Ben, given their history?

He's objectively guilty, so I don't see why not.

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Is Xahar capable of being an objective prosecutor against Ben, given their history?

I doubt it.

[DownWithTheLeft]

Is Xahar capable of being an objective prosecutor against Ben, given their history?

Of course not, he's actually not capable of prosecuting anyone.  I wouldn't be surprised if Ben got off, its Peter against someone who thinks reading the Wiki makes you a powerhouse

You think he'll plead not guilty?

If you were the prosecutor and Peter was my lawyer, I sure as hell would

Court cases don't necessarily have winners and losers, you know.

I don't know how things work here, but in the real world prosecutors step aside and do not prosecute people they are having a personal relationship with.

[Хahar 🤔]

We all have personal relationships with one another.

[DownWithTheLeft]

We all have personal relationships with one another.

Yes, but I don't think anyone would let Mark Furman prosecute O.J.

Frankly, I think Ben should be convicted as I should have been convicted if BDD ever did vote.  But Xahar is not the person to do it

[Lunar]

We all have personal relationships with one another.

I wouldn't say that you and I have a personal relationship.

But I would say that whatever your insanely negative history with Ben is is an ridiculous conflict of interest.  In fact, if you do dislike Ben as much as you do and want to see him punished, you'd probably want to step aside just because you remove that argument from Parker.

Recent turn in events of the Gubernational Bill: Anger

Recent turn in events of the Gubernational Bill: Anger

That's my feeling exactly, but we have a chance this time of failing that amendment

Thread is locked, I presume, to avoid the thread being filled with "omg you scumbag" type posts, for better or for worse.  Let's wait and let justice be served.

Humorous to say the least.  To say he meant no harm by hacking Ben's account is absurd.  That's like saying that stealing someone's credit card is okay

Did I post with it? Did I use it in some way that harmed him? No; I used it to recieve access to some hilarious fun.

You used it to access Ben's PMs and try and figure out what Ben was up to
