Well, Sarian (Priscilla Krishnan) of the CU won the presidency. We have a new election model where you can file to run for seats. The RGA did the best of any of the parties in those elections, I think. Yes, the NPP is dead. Some new parties have been formed: the Communist Party of Fernao, which is communist; the Fernao Phalanx Movement, which is fascist; and Forward Fernao!, which is centrist and neoliberal.

You know what we should do? We should put the CPF and FPM together and see who kills the other.

We're less violent than you'd think. The communists I can't speak for though. :p

Ah, okay. Is the NPP dead as in disbanded or as in inactive? And where could I find some sort of guide to this new election model? Also, the parties with seats aren't the only parties left, right? I remember there being a few more. And what of constituencies? Do you have to win the elections in them?

Also, sorry that I'm asking so many questions, I'm just a tad bit confused.
Relax people, this nation doesn't represent my real political views.

Full list of parties here.

The constitution provides for physical, geographical constituencies and list seats. The former are contested at each general election, the main thread here. Anyone who loses or doesn't contest is assumed to be a list seat senator. It's not official, so some people ignore it.

Thank you, one last question, are we allowed to be Independent and what exactly do we put for the Constituency section in the Constituency Claiming Thread?

In terms of the constituencies, yes, you can be independent.

We aren't holding elections right now. Usually you would put the constituency you're running for, which can be found by clicking on the map in the OP.

Is double posting in daily life okay if no one else is campaigning? It's been a day since my last post.

Was Sarian okay with that last Daily Life post? Is it their puppet? Kind of godmoding if not, right?

Fake news isn't godmodding.

But yes, only Sarian has determination over whether this event actually happened.

So treat it like the news actually broke, but make no determination about whether it's true or not?

Hi all, just a follow-up to some earlier announcements. I will be stepping down as Head Admin effective June 16, next Friday. I will retain the position of admin.

Taking my position will be Zurkerx, a fantastic admin, as you all know, who's been in his position for quite some time and a regular contributor to the RP for even longer.

The next week plus will serve as a transition period, even though nothing much is being transferred except for the title and a couple Head Admin-only duties. I'd be keen on an exit interview of sorts next week or the week after if anyone would be interested in conducting that on the IRC. I hope that's not too indulgent to ask, but I think it's always a good thing to have a continuity and transparency of information between administrations.

Sarian is President and obstinant, RGA is disorganized, CU is frustrated.
