So I realize I'm not in this party, but I do read this thread a couple times every day. Ovisterra, that was a great piece of writing. I myself thought about stepping out due to all the bovine feces being flung around. Yeah, even with the Coalition and the Admin spot and everything. However, I've decided to give it more time, albeit with less emotional involvement. So thanks for writing that.

It was my pleasure. Thank you.

I will ensure that no one will quit.

I'll be with you every step of the way.

*Sigh* And there's Hath saying he won't disarm either.

Honestly, I'll give it until the end of the week, but odds are that I'm out. I honestly can't stand the fact that certain elements have turned this from a politics simulation to something about paramilitaries performing coups.

The Admins will eject the ones not willing to follow the rules.

But if you leave, I'll cry and then give speeches that make everyone else cry and the whole goddamned party will be crying. Do you want to be responsible for that?

Ovisterra 5 (46%)
Ainin 5 (46%)
Abstain 1 (8%)

So, eh... Yeah.

(Yes, I just voted for myself. Screw principles.)

I knew it would come to this.

Still, it's what I did and I can hardly give out to you for it.

Sir! I must protest!

When I withdrew my candidacy from the position of Minister of the Treasury, it was with the knowledge that there was a better man to take it over. Are you telling me that a bunch of god-damned self endorsing vitriol spewing hatemongers are going to make a fool of me? I will not allow it! Sir you will stay in your position until such a time as those radicals have taken over every inch of this Senate, and then, only then, will your resignation allow my honor to stay intact!

Fucking hell, I'm not quitting.

Me and Divair started this party from nigh scratch, from a TET post, a joke and a liking for mammaries. Within a few weeks, this was the biggest party in the whole goddamn Senate. I was there from the very start. I saw it grow, mature, and turn into the best damn fictional party ever. I'm its deputy leader. That very title is now hammered into my blood.

And radicals? You know what, radicals? Eff you and eff your screwery. I am not going to be driven out like Divair was. Just today, our dear pal Irredento called me out for the time I initially got sick of your fuckery. Said, if I remember correctly, that he hopes I'll be forbidden from what he called stupidity. Aye. I may have gone too far, gone into making angered decisions based on emotion. But I stand by what I did, because whether the fasciomonarchists like it or not, I will not stand for fucking up this game. And I sincerely hope their small party big egos will deflate when progress, moderation and sanity win in the end.

I will not give up, never, never, never.

Posting a poster I just made in a moment, if I can get my internetz to work properly.

Churchill wrote:But for everyone, surely, what we have gone through in this period - I am addressing myself to the [Senate] - surely from this period of ten [days] this is the lesson: never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never-in nothing, great or small, large or petty - never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.

[] = edited to fit the circumstances.

This, my friends, is what we need. This kind of attitude is what this party was founded upon and what it should continue to be fuelled by. An unwillingness to accept anything sub-par. An iron will that will stand up in the face of all aggression. A level of determination that will bring its wielder to the ends of the Earth in the pursuit of a brighter future.

There is a single tear in my eye right now.

*Churchill voice*

"We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in lobby, we shall fight in the coffee shop, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the chamber, we shall defend our values, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight in the HQ, we shall fight in the event threads, we shall fight for the bills and the the amendments, we shall fight for what's right; we shall never surrender."

Guys, we are a leftist party.

For every modified Churchill quote there's gotta be at least two modified Clement Attlee, Olof Palme, or Willy Brandt quotes.

I'm sorry, but Churchill's speeches during wartime were fan-freaking-tastic.

There's no denying there, that (and a lot more) I'll grant you.

I don't see why we can't just make our own speeches. I like doing that.
