I think it's better if we could post our comments about the election is a single thread rather than having them litter the subforum.

As of now, the PNL, SN-RF and THP are all going very strong. ;)

I meant like current time.

What's the current GMT, time.

Darn, I have to explain everything?

I'm slightly certain that it's my time, but just want to make sure without right clicking my timer in the corner.

I think? But isn't 12 pm, Friday midnight and 12:01 am, Friday morning. I edited my last post to 07:00 CET but to be picky, he must have meant noon, it should be 19:00 CET.

Strictly 07:00 CET tomorrow, Saturday, but if he meant noon, 12:00 am, its 19:00 CET today, and if he meant 12:00 pm Thursday or 00:00 CET today that would be 07:00 CET or 7:00 am today.

Just in case I don't catch up to Dan before tomorrow at noon CDT (GMT-5).

I wonder what if former PUC members show up and find their party no longer exists. :eek:

I say it's a bad idea to dissolve PUC.

Meh, some of them might care enough to re-start it. Seems like nets doesn't care enough to even register it as a running party though.

PUC started the game really well with people like Nets, Clausewitz and AA etc. they looked really strong as a party.

It all went down hill after the election. I had lots of sympathy for Donald who tried to single-handedly revitalise the PUC.

Another thing worth paying attention to is the clash of personality in the SLD. It got a few really talented and ambitious people but there is only one leader and that's the problem.

No... It's noon. So, the official starting time for me is 1:00 PM EST-D. For UTC, it would be 5:00 PM.

From the people who have voted so far for them I can't see much difference in the way of ideas and that they are a lot more to the left than they used to be. Also the SN-RF behemoth will probably force a few of the right wing parties to join up as well, probably the PNL and POP. Right now that single party has more votes than all the right combined.

It seems it can be either and depends on usage.

Well, we need to wait for more SLD voters to see which direction they are likely to go.

It's a common problem in the centrist parties like SLD (despite it officially being centre-left, it has been pushed to the right more than the liking of some of its own members) and PUC that they tend to be internally divided between members who learn to the left and those to the right. The more leftist and rightist parties are much more stable internally because of this - you see very little conflict within PoP, PNL, CA and SN-RF.

Also the SN-RF behemoth will probably force a few of the right wing parties to join up as well, probably the PNL and POP. Right now that single party has more votes than all the right combined.


That's a possibility. Though it's a lot harder than people imagine for a couple of parties to work together harmoniously. It's evident in all of the previous alliance discussions.
