Whilst I won't be lobbying for you vote a certain option, I can answer questions if you wish me to. Also, I need you guys to make demands if you would join the new coalition (i.e. you want this kind of policy, you want this ministerial post etc).

EDIT: And out of respect, I request that either side does not conduct any lobbying or force debates. Let the Lib Dems decide among themselves and only answer questions that they ask.

I suppose I'll cast the first vote, though I reserve the right to change it later, depending upon the overall party reaction.

I vote in favor of joining the new coalition.

I'm going to counter Lemanrussland's vote and vote to stay in the Progress Coalition.

I vote to stay in the Progress Coalition for the time being. I am also interested I the answer to Glasgia's question above. As for the other coalition, what would they be willing to concede to this party?

They've offered to shift the coalition to the left a bit, and they sent an invitation to TR. Wolfmanne is going to appoint one of us as prime minister.

Well, if we are indeed getting the PM spot, I think we'd also want two ministries or so, and we would want economic individuality, ie the ability to decide ourselves.

We already have free vote in regards to taxation, so that's most of economy as free vote.
As for ministries, we haven't divided up ministries but I am sure we can get enough for everyone (even if we have to create new ones)... they are like free currency.

We're asking for full individual economic determination, not just taxes. As for ministries, could you post all involved parties and their numbers? That would help us figure out who gets what and how much they get. If you want to, look on the Progress Coalition thread for a method that I used to divide seats.

We haven't been invited to anything as far as I'm aware.

At the moment? 12 but I was thinking we can increase that to fulfill every party's demand. MFP allows prime minister to create as many ministries as he wants.

The TR, CSP, and the NSP have been invited, but there has been no response.

So dividing the 12 ministries between this would mean that for every 9.25 members, a party gets a ministry:
PC - 3 (+.46)
LD - 3 (+.13)
LFP - 3 (-.41)
NCP - 2 (-.38)
CFE - 1 (+.19)
That's out of 111 members. Assuming the VP, Pres, PM + DPM are left from the hangovers of the Cabinet positions, Pres=PC, VP=LD, PM=CFE, DPM=NCP (assuming order of importance is Pres, PM, VP, DPM).

If we add the Transportation and Commerce Ministries, then it's one for every 7.93 members:
PC - 4
LD - 4
LFP - 3
NCP - 2
CFE - 1

Also we need at least another party (if this coalition does form) if we're going to form a viable coalition.

Admin, New Democrat member for Lüborg (504) and ambassador to the Red-Greens in the Aurentine Senate. Minister of Business Safety of Aurentina. Apparently that deserves a ministry, but I'm not complaining. I'm probably none of these things anymore. | The Aurentine Phrasebook, my magnum opus.

With Transportation it's 13, which gives 3 each to the first three parties on there, and then 2 to the others.

Alright. Although, as I said we can fullfill every ministerial demands by creating more ministries.
