both were President

both later hitched themselves to the dominate leftwing party

both were At-large Senators

So the only thing left for Truman is to be elected President

Purple state was also criticized for only posting in the fantasy boards

Truman barely posts anywhere else

But the fantasy boards are the only good boards😛

I get most of my #analysis on discord😛

Agreed

11% of all the posts on the AFG board are mine

17,000 out of 154,000

You swamp creature!

Why did Windjammer resign in 2014 as VP?

Idk

I was hoping Yankee would explain

I am not actually 100% clear myself

since I lost my internet Aug 6th 2014 and didn't get it back until Oct 23rd, 2014

So I only got small snippets of information

At the start of the administration

Windjammer was VP and the Senate was tied

rather than have to choose between me and TNF for PPT, Windjammer tried to punt by claiming TNF had declared too late or something

for a month it was tied up in court while he ran the Senate himself, the first one to do so.

He came under withering fire for this

because it was unusual for a VP t orun the whole Senate, it was only a year ago when the VP was expected to do nothing, and since then had been managing a few slots

Averoes Nix was one of these critics along with Oakvale

and it is part of why they nuked the responsibilities of the VP later that year

Finally the court case was resolved and TNF became PPT

Windjammer resigned at the beginning of August

it was really before the whole nationalized power thing heated up, but I dod know that Windjammer is still angry at DemPGH

so perhaps DemPGH asked him to go

I also think Windjammer's claiming of credit for June 2014 as being all on him, is a subtle jab at DemPGH

either way, he resigned and his seat got Garlanded by the right

which was easy since I was gone and thus unable to really vote on most things as IDS Senator

Lumine, Cassius, Libertarian Spiral (in his unevolved form)

and JCL

had five seats, since the VP was vacant no tiebreaker

ooh

This remained as such through the power controversy until Labor lost a seat in August 2014

This reduced Labor to just four seats and Lumine became PPT.

Unfortunately the nominated VP was Tyrion the imperialist

who after labor no longer had a majority seamed like a safe bet to confirm
