Lifthrasil: Yes. Taking away one variable may make the game easier,
easier for whom?

Do you mean 'make the game easier to win'? or 'make the game easier to play'?

PookaMustard: I'm not a fan of this play idea either.
Did you try it before? What was the game like?

I haven't actually, but I'm not convinced it will make a fun game.
I liked in the game I played on discord where scene called me and pooka 'gentlemen', whether or not we play meta can we try and all be real classy and call each other gentlemen and such?

Just less complex. At first glance that's an advantage for the Liberal side. But if you think about it, it isn't. It can be (ab)used by Fascists too. "I didn't have any particular reason for nominating him as Chancellor. The meta-rules dictated it. So, this meta-rule would reduce confusion a bit (which is good for the Liberals), but it would also take an analysis opportunity away from the Liberals. ... All in all it would still be balanced, just less complex and therefore, in my opinion, less interesting.

Sure thing ma'am
bump!!!!

Classy rules.
Sidenote: I was watching a bit of the british house of commons on twitch and was impressed with how they go out of their ways to compliment each other on civility, politeness, and general niceness, even if they disagree bitterly on policy. :O

Were we watching the same thing, I wonder? I ask as from what i've seen, they may ACT nice to each other(wording/etc) but one can tell they are often subtly making fun of or insulting others there(i.e. the niceness appears to be surface level only, and mainly for appearances, in some cases). o.0

Yeah, it must be said as much as they are cordial and polite with one another they are in equal measure embarassingly petulant and rude. It would be folly to expect otherwise I suppose. The vulpus may change her socks, but never her coat, as I have heard it wisely said.

That aside, that's one thing I dislike about society.....all the false niceties people do or are expected to do at all times lest they be thought less of by others(always crying at any tragedy, however minor....always seeing some events as bad/good depending on how society suggests we should view them....not speaking ill of the dead ever....etc)....tbh I have more respect for the more open and honest(yet still civil) people than those who do such(in general).

Disclaimer: I sometimes use such pleasantries offline and online to be nice and often(90% of the time or more) they are genuine.
Dear fellow council members. Of course we will be civil to each other. Are we not all striving for the same goal, the betterment of our society? Therefore, petty grievances and harsh words shall have no place in our parliament. We will be polite and smile at each other while we stab each others back. That, my friends, is called diplomacy!
Fuck that crap. Swearing is part of every modern human being's life.
