OOC: I'm just worried how RT is going to react to all these debates.
Also, this whole electing people thing is taking a lot of space, we should just elect someone who isn't Hitler.
And I'm kind of disappointed no one is going to react to Mbeza being arrested in Boston, but whatever.
OOC: People will probably just leave the story for you 5 to keep discussing about whatever you are discussing. Instead of making several small posts like a chat you should try to make posts better worked, without all that fighting that has been the rule since the communists took the government.
E.G. @TheNoob: Only 4 people didn't say anything about your post that could have said. Have you considered you got disappointed with an information only less then 1 hour after you posted it. Nobody else could have seen this yet, only you 5.
People have lives and other things to do, just check how many hours you have spent discussing the alternatives to pacify the mess that alternatively we all did when commies came to power, another alternative episode of america's elections on this alternative story RT has started months ago.
If something is directed to few people, it should go to the talk your own mind group indeed. Here we should let the story go. Of course debates should happen, but not so fiercely, and most importantly: not so fast!
The worst problem is the speed. It's so fast that people lose interest because they can't keep with all this info that's popping tremendously fast.
Even the power RT gave us to create side stories on this universe are being cast away to favor direct confront by supporters of USSA and supporters of Secessionists.
It would be a lot better if we kept having Atlantic Pacific stories, most of the voters giving their opinions in what has been happening, and most importantly, RTs reports on the situation. If it gets so fast, even RT won't have time and patience to drive this anymore. He can't even find time to look the other threads here, imagine going to sleep and waking up to see 10 full pages of '1-5 lines' posts about Capitalists and Communists brawling to see who the hell is going to accompany who to see the possibility of a forced labor camp in northern Canada.
Even when RT states that someone has died we dare to say he is wrong. I know we got a lot of liberty to create our side stories, but we should have some rules, even if they are not written and oficialised. RT is the creator of this, if he says: To hell with this, I'm tired of this story! We lose one of the most epic stories of S&T (I may have entered S&T not long ago, but seeing the other stories, and the stories labeled as the best stories of S&T, America Write your own History has 30.000+ views and ~2000 posts, and more then half of both came in less then a month. Celestial Bureaucracy doesn't have as many posts as this, and 90,000 views for 3 years of story compared to 30,000 for less then a year story).
My proposal is: When someone discussing here judges the discussion is getting somewhat personal (between few people, or chat-like with few lines posts falling in rapid succession) it should be transfered to America: talk your own mind.

Sorry if I forgot someone, I tried my best to list most people I remember were alive for a big part of the story
And while I was writing you could complete another page and start the next one, and adhiraj.bose came back. This is kind of annoying, you can't lose time writing because you'll lose several posts that may outdate yours and turn a part of it useless.
Don't take me wrong friends and comrades, but we can't continue this if in 2 hours we are completely outdated and must take several minutes to read everything to catch up
Instead of flooding this, try to give some of your efforts to the other stories being hosted here. Many people are trying their first attempts, others their masterpieces, and we all are stuck on RTs story, but actually just to keep brawling about Commies vs Capitalists. Give the others a chance (I swear this isn't self advertisement )
