i'll push the update as late today as i can, but those of you who havent sent orders for this turn gotta do it in the next 6 hours or i'll just use your orders from last turn.
Rnes8: Run for President
- Thread starter RoddyVR
- Start date
Late runner-up presidential Caaaandidate: Harm Rabb!!
I'll start by flying my jet to Alaska and convincing the people there I will represent their cause!
Quote from Presidential candidate Harm Rabb: "It's ok to bomb China because they challenge our authority and a few planes have crashed because of that."
Harm Rabb has received a million dollars from his lawyering friends and he is now running around the country convincing academics that the words 'Harm Rabb, you may now command the United States.' deus truth to behold and spoken on every lip in the top gun academy.
Mr. Rabb is currently campaigning in Alaska, he has also spent $500,000 dollars on an ad campaign in Vietnam to find the grave or corpse of his father.
He has mentioned something about his fiance (and potential first Lady) being a representative of citizens with partial ethnic minoritie background and highly educated jet-setting New York liberal academicians.
....
To Mod: Is there any chance China might attack? Even 0.1 percent would be greatly appreciated.

ye, real funny. you now owe me 5 minutes. that's how much time i wasted making sure that you hadnt joined the game somewhere and i missed it.Toteone said:
do you want to join? if you do, then say so.
(I edited my post, you happened to read it before it was edited. I guess so: sorry.) Yes, I would like to join.)
Harm Rabb: "We should attack China!"
... wait until you hear his eloquent arguments... for real§!...
------could I be a Republican?
Toteone:
Candidate: Harm Rabb
Home State: Arizona
Color: Dodger Blue
VP: John C.Y.S. Grønvold -- Norway
Independant
Anti-Environment (but only if it's up against a military base or say a bunker), Anti-Abortion, Pro-Free Market, Anti-Monopoly, Anti-Communist (Anti-China), Pro-Military (pro-navy (carriers)! pro air-force!!)
Base of Support: Top Gun Military Academy, Military Elite (dude, he can make fun of 5-star generals and get away with it), Fighter Pilots, spread across the states but the most intense support is found in Area 52 Arizona.
...
I'll wager anyone my remanining $500,000 and my base support that I can defeat them in a debate.
PS. I do not have an infatuation with the sh... not so good Top Gun Harm Rabb series, in fact I hate them; but a friend once wrote down the name Harm Rabb as leader of the USA in Civ 2 and it really cracked us up when the game began. I'm serious about kicking your respective asses in a debate though, as long as it's about going to war with China or something reasonable like that (I'd love to kick ass on abortion too, but I joined to fight about something new).

if you're joining, i need the following:
Home state of your candidate
Color you want to be on the map
PMed orders for today's update (with a break down of how you're spending your 16 hours)
and there's no spending money outside the US states. you get imprisoned for using campaign funds for non election stuff. and there is no campaigning allowed in foreign countries because they dont vote for US president.

DID SOMEBODY SAY FASCIST!!!? *Mussolini comes from the grave and begins dancing around*
now for my actual stuff
Fascist Party Rally
*Ernest walks on stage with a Giant Picture of Franco behind him*
"Greetings my fellow americans, we have grown slightly since the last time I talked to you, I assure you our time will come" *Crowd begins cheering* "but we must begin to prepare for what happens once I'm in power, I plan to annex Western Canada and northern mexico into the United States, we need living room and the truth is that the American population is far bigger than the Canadian, so they shouldnt miss Alberta Manitoba and British Columbia, then in mexico we can push the people who already live there farther south and we will have room for the rich to build resorts, thank you and remember a vote for the Fascist Party is a vote for your own Superiority, Sieg Heil!!"
*crowd goes nuts until Ernest leaves, they then trash the whole arena*
OOC:Ernest looks so evil in that pic LMAO

ok, all the people who havent sent orders have been to CFC since the last update, so its your own fault for not sending orders, and you cant claim that you didnt know that the update was today, its in big letters up there.
so anyway, those who have not yet sent orders, get their orders from last turn repeated.
NorthKing - i'm still hoping you're not realy quiting. so will process your late orders for last turn as orders for this turn. hope you rejoin the game.
EDIT: i've got something to do now, so update deadline in half hour.

I thought I would like to play a board NES once, so far I have not enjoyed it too much. Sorry, but I am giong to have to quit do o lack of interest, and a severe lack of time.

oh, aint that just dandy. if you people have such time restraints then why the hell do you join games? go see to your time restraints and leave the NESing to people who dont quit games on the second turn cause they dont have time for it. you didnt know you wouldnt have time when you joined? what has changed since then? you get married? go to school? have a kid? what in your life changed so unexpectadly that your available time for NESing is so much smaller then it was last week when you joined the game?
i'm sorry to rant, but this is by far my biggest gripe with this whole dam forum and nesing in general and i hate it when people do this. if it wasnt for the autocensor (and fear of warning/bannings) i'd be swearing.
/end rant.

My time constraint is that the first quarter just ended for my school, which happens to be St. Ignatius College Prep, the hardest and most demanding school in the Chicagoland area. You have to beet out two other people just to get in. My grades have been slipping a little so I have to cut down on NESes. Sorry, but some of us do have serious lives you know.

ZOMBG I took another candidate's home state and ended up with 4 million dollars! I'd be happy to retire right now!
Well, time to keep campagining, and maybe win some of those empty states...
Roddy: Can we get a vote list like we got last update?
