	Apolyton Politics: Apolytics! Inflate your Upload Space

Choose from the poll your party, then after the poll closes in a week, elect a leader, then roleplay in a UN setting, agendas are:

The Apolyton Communist Party (ApolyCommie)
- Good old homegrown Communist Ideals in a post-USSR world

The Pragmatical Communist League
- Utopic Communism mixed with Socialism and Liberalism as well as Anarchism and of course- Libertarianism

The Fascist People's Republic of APOLYTON
- To propogate our goals we will assimilate other forums with spam and flame anyone who dares insult our members.

The Junta
- Made up of ex-militia, ex-army, and ex-hackers, the Junta is a society based on one sole purpose (The purpose is to be decided at a later date) and to accomplish their purpose they will use any means avaliable; lying, cheating, spamming, etc.

ConservApolyton
- Conservatives. their goals are: Free enterprise, free oil, free market, free weapons, and are willing to imprison people for life if they do not agree.

The Liberal League
- Against big business they are for a government that controls the people. Democrats. Liberals. A mix of Fascist and Communist ideals.

The Feudalists
- We wish to instill a rigid class structure at Apolyton by making those who have been here the longest and have the most posts all powerful administrators

AntiAmericana
- Against all things American

La Sociedad de Dictators
- The society of dictators believes that only one entity should administrate the board.

The Uncertains
- Goal: Spam
They don't understand the political ideals and wish to fill the board with pure, lovely buckets of spam.

To be honest, DarkCloud, I like the idea, but these "parties" are horribly flawed. Needs a little more thought I think...

Hey Bob, calm down, its only a game - no real commies here (or only a few)....

More thought?
I spent 10 minutes off-line writing that up. It was as good a joke as I could make for a story/ real life debate thread.

Heck, I consider myself Conservative, Bob.

When I said "Liberal" I meant Left-Wing.

BC- I would add it, but it would have to replace the Uncertains... In retrospect, I should have added the Atheistic Humanistic League... but there are only 10 options

Don't be so pedantic, Iaian. Everybody's heard the correction you're aiming at. The useage of the word has changed...

Mmm...sounds good

"Everything for free, free, free!
And imprison those who don't agree!"

Oh but Sneior Dalgetti, in less than 24 hours three threads on this topic alone appeared with all of them debating the definition of the various parties AND (shockingly) no actualy stories going on. This is the same thing that happens everytime one of these ideas pops up here. Four or five threads emerge with OFF TOPIC style discussion. And in rare cases a story actually emerge with 10-12 contributions tops, and half of that is bickering over the rules.

All I am asking is that if we must endure this 'nitwittery' can it be contained to one thread per topic?

For a Confederate, you're a helluva Prussian, Ruffhaus.

While on the subject, the point of S&D is exactly the title of the forum: Stories and Diplomacy. We don't have the time or patience to deal with the pedantic horseshoe that is politics in all its crude forms. Here, we have conquests to plan, nations to cleanse, and worlds to bend to our will by the only force that matters: Power. And once we are done rending the fortified cities as the rushing passage of Time rends cheap cloth, we tell stories about it every so often. Anything else is unnecessary detraction from the point of this forum.

These threads are not a story, nor are they Diplomacy. Logically, they should not reside here.

There are other places for such things as this. I humbly suggest you who were responsible for placing this (these) topic(s) here find one more appropriate.

Alas, the opertunity has come.... for we can conquer this forum for the glory of the Grenzland. This will be but the beachhead, and from this place we can spring forth and vanquish teh Apolytoner nation.

Err-hmmm, I mean, I'm kind of interested, as long as it doesn't take too much time....

well don't look at me . It was darkcloud's Idea , and it's not my fault it's not working yet . where is darkcloud , anyway !

Ruffhaus , just the way you said it , made me feel terribly uncomfortable , like we were posters of lower breed or something . It wasn't our idea to go to the SD forum anyway.

I'm here.

I started the story.

Perhaps we should tell Ming that we are not welcome here and move to the Off-Topic where we can get more posters to post in the game?

death_head- we are just going to debate for fun made up situations and argue like the UN about whose better (or more badass... )
