Apolyton Politics: Apolytics!
Choose from the poll your party, then after the poll closes in a week, elect a leader, then roleplay in a UN setting, agendas are:
The Apolyton Communist Party (ApolyCommie)
- Good old homegrown Communist Ideals in a post-USSR world
The Pragmatical Communist League
- Utopic Communism mixed with Socialism and Liberalism as well as Anarchism and of course- Libertarianism
The Fascist People's Republic of APOLYTON
- To propogate our goals we will assimilate other forums with spam and flame anyone who dares insult our members.
The Junta
- Made up of ex-militia, ex-army, and ex-hackers, the Junta is a society based on one sole purpose (The purpose is to be decided at a later date) and to accomplish their purpose they will use any means avaliable; lying, cheating, spamming, etc.
ConservApolyton
- Conservatives. their goals are: Free enterprise, free oil, free market, free weapons, and are willing to imprison people for life if they do not agree.
The Left-Wing League (Known as Liberal League in poll)
- Against big business they are for a government that controls the people. Democrats. Liberals. A mix of Fascist and Communist ideals.
The Feudalists
- We wish to instill a rigid class structure at Apolyton by making those who have been here the longest and have the most posts all powerful administrators
AntiAmericana
- Against all things American
La Sociedad de Dictators
- The society of dictators believes that only one entity should administrate the board.
The Uncertains
- Goal: Spam
They don't understand the political ideals and wish to fill the board with pure, lovely buckets of spam.

DarkCloud: the Idea is great . my preposition is to post a pre-poll site , that would ask for people's Ideas . let's say ..err .. you and err ... I choose the winning Ideas .. 9 of them , for the polls . then we post the poll . people will vote and then we'll kindly ask them to place their political affiliation on their location , so that everyone could know who is who .
*NOTE*: all steps should be coordinated with forum moderators so no spamming or threadjacking would be allowed .
P.S.Libertarianism - what is it ?

4 More Parties
ADDENUM:
The Atheistic Humanistic League
- For the abolition of Religion. Against the abolition of Post counts.
The Christian Democratic Federation
- For the abolition of Atheistic practices. Against abortion. Against money. For equal rights. For equality.
The Archaic Christian Federation
- For the rights of all White, Christian Males who think alike. Against anyone who thinks differently. "thou shall be burned at the stake for heresy."
Hebrew.com
- The website and alliance for all Hebrews who bitterly oppose the hated AHL and CDF. Closely allied with The Uncertains because of their ties with Eli

Hail,
You're missing at least one important category... the anarcho/minarcho-capitalists. You do mention libertarians, but for a lot of us it doesn't mix with Communism under any circumstances...

Good idea Dalgetti
This way we can come up with alot of clever parties. Personally, I'm with the fascists. I like the idea of protecting this place against certain *cough* other forums.
Not like they could ever successfully hurt this place.

But the definitions should at least make some sense - I mean "Left-Wing League" - A mix of Fascist and Communist ideals -
However it IS fun

Oh, I dont know, that Blizzard forum was pretty active!
And AoE Heaven, they had so much clout they got 2 posters banned!
And NewsMax, you can't forget NewsMax!

Perhaps we should do like Dalgetti proposed and maybe rework the Left Wing Legaue

And it also seems that there is no poll needed - since nearly every poster will have its own party...

Okay, everyone since most people are going to have their own party, please post it here and its goals. After we get about 5 parties, lets start the game.
(Note: If you want, you can join other people's parties)
So... Eli- You're joining the Archaic Christian Federation?
I'll choose my party soon.

Based on this summary which party is best for me:
Christian with scientific degree background (i.e most definitely not a Creationist)
Right leaning on economic issues
Left leaning on social issues
Spam tolerant as long as it ain't obvious
Anti-communist
Anti-fascist (Pro-Apolyton though )
I think I will stand as an independent.

ConservApolyton
Leader- DarkCloud
Title- Conservative God of Justice
Goals- Free enterprise, free oil, free market, free weapons, and are willing to imprison people for life if they do not agree.
They also support allowing companies to charge for their merchandise, allowing that they are forced to have 'free-sales' at various times where the merchandise is only taxed (outrageously)
[Money-Free Holidays where all proceeds go to the Communistic-Type Government]
Slogan- (courtesy of Zopper)
"Everything for free, free, free!
And imprison those who don't agree!"

Okay. I started a thread for it!
Let's start after one or two more members, however.
Dalgetti- while you are waiting, could you please invent a title and draft some goals, thanks

Dalgetti, what is it with you?
I'm a veteran of the previous elections. I can give you insights that you wouldn't have otherwise.
Chill.
Don't sick the Mossad on me, OK?

I'll be the head of the AVP. Apolyton Veteran's Party. You newbies may not realize that this party actually exists/existed. This is the place for all Royals, Xenophobes,and Archivists.
This shall be the party of Ming, Colon, Lordstone1, etc...
(Unless the AUP starts up...than LS1 may branch off.)
