Has this been approved by a mod?

EDIT - I see that it has been. Cheerio!

CalBear, yes.

I'm voting for the Father of the American Nation, George Washington!

 

[Aero]

Yay! I loved the original run of this series.

One vote for George Washington.

 

[Turquoise Blue]

Yay! I loved the original run of this series.

Are you going to be doing the same format that Nerdlinger did? One or two elections every week?

One election every week, to prevent clutter. The qualification needed for a place in the polls are lower, though...

Voted for John Jay. As much as I respect Washington, having our first president be anti-slavery can only set a good precedent.

 

[Gryphon]

It was a tough call between the two, but I ended up edging GW.

 

[NKVD]

John Jay of course. Being anti-slavery should really be the only thing that matters here.

 

[Megaman03]

My vote goes to George Washington

 

[Nofix]

The man with an eye for character, John Adams!

 

[Fleetlord]

Is there going to be any other difference between this and the first series? Maybe make the TL more "interactive" so that, frex, if Jay wins he runs for reelection next turn, have primaries, etc.? I'd be willing to assist.

No, its just the classic way, only with a lower requirement.

 

[Red Arturoist]

CalBear, yes.

How do you get mod approval? And when do you need such approval?

 

[stefanbl]

How do you get mod approval? And when do you need such approval?

You ask.

When you think you're in an iffy area.

 

[stefanbl]

John Jay of course. Being anti-slavery should really be the only thing that matters here.

And I suddenly have a reason to vote for one of them.

Would be interesting as a separate concept, though.

I will ask a mod -- I know clutter is a concern, but the TL-191 and Two Americas elections seem to be dead and gone...

 

[Turquoise Blue]

Vote more, everybody!

 

[Turquoise Blue]

George Washington/John Jay everybody!
