United Front Coalition - Page 6

Can we see who in the UFC was elected in the recent elections?

Switch · July 17, 2002, 22:42

With all due respect, I would like to retract my membership from the United Front Coalition. This is not due to disagreement with the party's goals, necessarily, but meerly due to realization of responsibility.
Being relatively new to the whole Civilization Democratic game, I got caught up in all of the politics and such, and forgot the true purpose of the Thinker's Guild: to question the system. To do this I must keep myself from becoming involved with or influenced by a political party, and so must remain independant politically.

I wish the best of luck to the United Front Coalition, especially to Trip and other members running for parliament. I may not vote for you, for doing so would be showing favouritism and, ultimately, making my membership to the Thinker's Guild moot, but I still wish you luck.

(snicker.) It's just so cute to read that kind of thing with evilgrin on one side and the Simpsons nerd on the other, clenching his lil' fists!!!!
(A somewhat snarky remark, I know, but I figure it's warranted, here in UFC territory.)

I will be expecting my bananas in the mail shortly?

It looks like this was a rather disastrous election for the UFC vs DIA, since it was 2 - 5 in favour of the DIA, at least I am deputy Imperial Expansion Minister!!!

Luk · July 18, 2002, 17:47

But president was elected not in democratic way... And many of citizens do not recognize Ninot as rightfully president, but because of Apolytonia do not oppose much. But Ninot - Im sure that you feel that your presidency is not backed with peoples will, but backed by many conspiracy things. Maybe we see new dictator. Saddam Ninot

Will 5001 · July 18, 2002, 18:06

Well, maybe if we can sort out the election process by next month, the real president will once again reign

!!

The_Spartan · July 22, 2002, 22:31

I got to page 4 before posting this, so im not sure if it was already suggested, but why not have an election of some sort with a candidate from both parties and whoever wins gets the support of the rest of the party?

Will 5001 · July 23, 2002, 17:29

It seems as though UFC members are no longer discussing things here!

Togas · July 23, 2002, 18:24

Guess there's not much to discuss.

Anybody got a beef or an issue they want to rant about?

I'm a little downtrodden about getting left out of The Court, but I can't really complain about the folks who were nominated. Perhaps if we win the next Presidency I can coax our new President (Uber?

) to put in a UFC legal expert on the Court.

Epistax · July 23, 2002, 18:37

Epistax appears on the thread for the first time out of no where

nah

Well anyone will be able to have beefs with court rulings. You are urged to complain, it's the public's wrath you might face.

jdd2007 · July 23, 2002, 20:13

president uber, hmm, i would vote for him.

Micaelus · July 24, 2002, 01:32

the end of the world as we know it...

Will 5001 · July 24, 2002, 14:27

President Uber?????? Nothing against Uber, BUT his military attitude to each and every problem would lead to lots of blood lost, from Apolytonia soldiers I fear! But if Uber can tone done his militarism then he might make a fine president!

Epistax · July 24, 2002, 14:30

our workers dont perform fast enough. let's send them into battle to increase their skills.
&lt/mock&gt

Not sure who I'm mocking, but I made my point.

UnOrthOdOx · July 24, 2002, 14:32

Bah, if anything making him President and removing his authority over the military would make us less aggressive. But, then, he can't remain SMC forever, and that is a shame.

Will 5001 · July 24, 2002, 14:36

Agreed, but maybe someone just as aggressive may take over as SMC!

jdd2007 · July 24, 2002, 14:38

[bold prediction]uber would be elected to whatever position he runs for[/bold prediction]

GodKing · July 24, 2002, 14:55

independant guy sneaking in his voice.....

UBER cannot be the next SMC, he has had that position 2 time in a row adn that is the max. But I do suspect that whatever he wants next he will probably get.

independant guy sneaking out the back door....

Epistax · July 24, 2002, 15:00

I believe we do it 3 terms in a row.

Length of Office Terms:

Togas · July 24, 2002, 15:18

Yep, Uber is the most electable guy in the UFC. And after his third term, he's going to have to choose a different job.

Is there anybody else in the Coalition that seems to be a good leader of the future? Perhaps we're on our way out of favor for good. Once Trip leaves, I'm not sure who will rise up to lead the Imperialists, if anyone. You Hawks, however, should continue to flourish. Perhaps in time the Hawk party will take over and we Imperialists will become independents or the like.

jdd2007 · July 24, 2002, 15:21

i thought i was somewhat electable, but i didnt even come close in my election. that puts off my campaigning plans

The Hawk Party is not doing so well itself. The only other members i have seen around are Uber And Ortho.

I don't know why! The Imperialists have a much better platform!

jdd2007 · July 27, 2002, 22:25

I am running for the Foreign Affairs Minister, against, currently, the Banana...

You can find my campaign thread here

I hope the UFC will support me *cough* a little better than last time *cough*

Will 5001 · July 28, 2002, 05:24

Of course we will support you, I will anyway!
