 FAILURE TO VOTE FOR EBB WILL RESULT IN A 100,000 HOUR PROBATIONOn February 28th, EBB's tenure as Idiot King of GIP will end. In order to have a peaceful, orderly and democratic transfer of power, we must begin the election season soon. What's the plan? First, it's time to think about political parties, starting with EBB's establishment party, which he may influence. Maybe it's the Party of Shame Cubing (or maybe that's one of his party platform topics?). (On that note, I will arbitrarily decree that there are no term limits for IKs, but that they must wait a number of IK terms (months) equal to the number they have served before serving again. So if you have been IK once, you must take one month off. Two IK stints = two months off, and so on. At some point this means nobody will be able to be IK, since we are a dead gay internet forum with a declining population. We'll cross that bridge when we get there.) Anyways, suggestions for other political parties: The Dog Thread, The Army Megathread, the Nuclear War Party, the Katy Perry Party, etc. How many parties, then? I don't care what we decide on, but one party must be the establishment. There will be one other party, for a total of two, and to decide this, I will take into account good posts in this thread calling for a party's creation & agenda, and other posters' support. I will try to be fair in deciding this. Keep all of these discussions within this thread, please. What's after the political parties? Okay, once we have our two parties, we have to have primaries! We'll worry about that when we get there, but it will probably involve the creation of two poll threads. And then? Finally, we will have the general election between our two parties' candidates. Of course, independents and write-ins are welcome (HCT, I'm looking at you) and totally valid. Good luck. Thread / Event Rules: GIP-tier chaos and zany posting is encouraged, but please refrain from all-out shitposting. Do not make extra threads concerning this event. Schedule 2/15 - 2/20: political party formation, debate, empty rhetoric, etc. 2/20: political parties officially named, formed. 2/21-2/23: primary season. 2/24-2/27: general election. 2/28: lame duck shenanigans by EBB, pardons, etc. Edits/clarifications: -joat mon now's your time to shine! -anyone can join a party (but only one party), but if a bunch of non-regulars join one specific party it will probably harm your image -losers of the primary and general elections have to make concessions speeches or get probated Somebody fucked around with this message at 20:45 on Feb 15, 2017 |

I like what I'm seeing so far but maybe just maybe something more original than the repetition of GIP memes will get your party recognition! Or you do you boo

Deathy McDeath posted:I propose a simple party with a simple idea: the Slap Zeris in the Face party. We have no platform other than the ability and willingness to slap Zeris in the face. The face slap does not need to arise from any particular grievance. Just a simple desire to have hand-flesh meet face-flesh at high velocity. Our party is especially flexible! We are willing to slap face with either the forehand or back of the hand. As this is a party of inclusiveness, all slap techniques are welcome! Go on
