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
