President Forever results thread...

[Хahar 🤔]

Humphrey/Muskie: 44% PV, 282 EV
Nixon/Agnew: 35% PV, 103 EV
Wallace/LeMay: 20% PV, 153 EV

Those are some weird results. Who as?

I was HHH.

What was your strategy?

Run a massive number of ads with 5 days before the end of the campaign, in every state where the lead is under 10% either way.

That map's...strange.

It is an odd map; especially the Wallace numbers.

Once again that is one strange map. What did the Electoral Map look like on Election Day? Were there many tossups?

A fair number of states were tossups, but my momentum was in the 800's, so I figured most of them would go for me.

800s?

Yup

How so much?

I dunno, but that's what I'm doing from now on

Have fun consistantly getting 800 momentum.

Oh, I wil

I suppose you had oodles of cash?

I spent the whole election in the South, NY, IL, and PA; I just ran ads at the end of it all.

Strange, strange, strange.

Gore/Obama: 51.1% PV, 274 EV
Romney/Huckabee: 48.9% PV, 264

I won Wyoming by only 141 votes, and lost Virginia by 4,849 votes.

That map is unspeakably weird.

[Хahar 🤔]

In a rare case of the game looking just like the real thing, I submit this 1972 Nixon v. Muskie (I played as Nixon).

Nixon: 59.9% PV, 521 EV
Muskie: 40.1% PV, 17 EV

That scenario doesn't look too bad.

[Хahar 🤔]

Clinton/Gore: 59.4% PV, 538 EV
Bush/Quayle: 40.6% PV, 0 EV

Those percentages are weird.

[Хahar 🤔]

433 (63.4%)-105 (36.6%)

Guess.

[Хahar 🤔]

433 (63.4%)-105 (36.6%)

Guess.

You ran as Bill Clinton against Ross Perot? And you won in a landslide.

Close. Actually, it was Brown/Bentsen vs. Perot/Stockdale. And I did nothing but press the spacebar through the whole game.

Jerry Brown sweeping the entire South? The joys of President Forever + Primaries. Reminds me that I ran as Gene McCarthy today against President Ford and Governor Wallace. Wallace somehow managed to win DC and numerous other parts of the United States where his politics aren't tolerated. The bright side was I finished 2nd in the District of Columbia with 17.65!

17.65?!?!?!

Well, I actually thought that the South was realistic; Perot did very poorly there IRL.

[Хahar 🤔]

Total: 118,467,604

Obama: 296 - 58,298,318 [49.2%]
McCain: 242 - 50,122,599 [42.3%]
Badnarik: 0 - 9,480,692 [8%]
Peroutka: 0 - 565,994 [0.5%]

yup....

[Хahar 🤔]

Gotta love this game. I was Poizner.

PF is immeasurably weird with third parties.

I can't get that scenario to work, for some reason.

[Хahar 🤔]

Noonan was even leading Newsom for a good while before LA County came in, I went in on Election Day with most of the state a toss-up, and they broke for third parties in a huge way.

Third parties are coded all wrongly though, earlier yesterday the cookie crumbled against me when Lenora ****ing Fulani grabbed NC and SD out of nowhere to hand the election to Babbitt and leave Ben Fernandez (me) out in the cold. Paul robbed me when I tried it with Biden, so I got fed up.

http://www.theoryspark.com/political_games/president_forever/scenarios/p4e8.htm I assume the one listed there was the one you got?

Aye, that was the one.

[Хahar 🤔]

Jim Douglas/Ross Daniels (D): 268 EV, 41% of the PV (51,928,621)
Fred Nelson/Steve Conrad (R): 259 EV, 37% of the PV (46,139,782)
Nathan Bobrick/Barbara Mitchell (I): 11 EV, 21% of the PV (26,468,248)

In this 2008 custom made scenario for the original President Forever, I ran as Billionaire Independent Nathan Bobrick of Washington for the Presidency of the United States. I ran against Governor of California Fred Nelson and Secretary of Defence Jim Douglas of New Jersey. Coming into Election Night, Jim Douglas was expected to win the Presidency of the United States however when all of the results came in, Douglas missed out on winning the Presidency outright by 2 EV's, thanks to me Nathan Bobrick .

As the 2008 Presidential Election was a tie, the Election was forced to the United States Congress and I expected the Congress to elect Jim Douglas 44th President of the United States. I was wrong, they selected me Nathan Bobrick! Thus becoming America's first Independent President.

Uh, OK...

Kennedy/Johnson: 57% PV, 525 EV
Nixon/Lodge: 41% PV, 12 EV

Candidate editor?  I've never seen that option.

It's in one of the remoter tabs.

It's in one of the remoter tabs.

The what?

Edit Richard Nixon and it'll be in a tab on the very right.

I'm there, but I don't see the tab.

I think it's a general statistics-related one.

[Хahar 🤔]

I have excellent news. I bought President Forever

Which one?

[Хahar 🤔]

I actually "won" playing as the nutjob Royer, but "lost" due to a weird EC result

Barack Obama/Bill Richardson (D) 310 EV, 48.3% of the PV (56,671,767)
Jean Royer/Sam Brownback (R) 228 EV, 51.7% of the PV (60,688,656)

lol @ DC. A Royer-like Republican would poll like 1% there.

That's a pretty big loss for a win.
