I was saying its mainly a first draft.
But there is no real reason, could be lazyniss, wrong communications, bad understanding, a love for pizzas, but that's not the subject of the issue.

the problem presented here, is that opposition received a lot positive press coverage after their reception.

You'll want to really cut down on how long each option is. Too much redundancy.

I do like the options getting into the various foods and categories. Redundancy has worked in other options in other issues, but it depends on the context.

OP, is that the British spelling of "dining?" Not saying it's wrong, but my American brain doesn't seem to process it right.

Why are you posting behind a puppet responding to your puppet? Anyway, the title should be changed, and I would also suggest it to be more catchy.

Me and Sweden are not the same person, we are both puppets of different people in the same RP Region. And also, I agree, perhaps the title could be some pun involving "press."

what do you suggest for title ?

Unprepared diner ?
Dining with journalist
Where's the diner ?
Pizza press
Look, english is not my native language, as so, punt is a bit hard for me to come with ?


Also I wanted to point the issues, the fact the opposition received the press with a Royal banquet, while your team barely prepared a meal.

You'll think of something. Just have it be catchy and original while relating to the premise.

3 Serving lemon to journalists
4 Losing the cooking game

6 Your diner is mystery food


Any of these are fine ?

Instead of pizza, maybe have curry. You can add toilet humour

instead of both option variants having "vegetarianism" as the validity, one needs to have a lack thereof.
