So, Sunday 25th we have thse eleections througout the continent ( although some countries vote earlier ). In therory, the big novelty this tile is that there are actual candidates for the post of Commission President. While I doubt very much that this will actually play like that and I am pretty sure that the Council ill anyway chose its candidate of choice, diregarding the result of the elections, let's find something positive in this farce.

I'm giving away a pack of 3 games : Pharaoh ( fitting the Euro-oligarchs, methinks) , Zeus (You know what role he played in the myth of Europa) and Caesar III ( The old roman empire too had its emperors taking the various "elective "functions of the state

Choice will be made by a random generator , once the first results of the EP elections are published ( 25th , end of the day )

Cool idea, not in but +1 for you :-)

Nothing I like better than closely examining a giant election.

Not in, but I'd like to be in for someone else once I see who's entering ^_^

In and thanks. Unfortunately, no viable candidates in my country, so i'm not going to vote.

I am not in Europe, but I am interested in those games, so count me in, thanks.

In my country they are organised together with national and regional elections. On top of that, I've been appointed as president over an election office, so I have got no other choice but to vote The only problem will be: who for? I do have an idea for the European list though.
Not in, because I have all of those games already.

edit: just noticed the OP'er is from the same country :-p

I am in thanks (i already have Caesar III and don't mind passing it on)

I can't see any positivity in this farce, unlike those games you mentioned where you atleast have some sort of saying in things.

+1 for you, not in as I've got them all already!

+1
But I really worry about the results.

I don't see it that negative. Think that the big fractions that nominated are absolutely willing to make one of the two candidates the future Commission President.

Problem is that there will be a very low turnout of voters in many countries and because of that probably a great number of anti-european politics will get a seat in the parliament and in the end there might not be a majority for either of the candidates

im in

and i seriously dont look forward to the 25th as i will have to vote on 3 different elections at once

What's your third election: Europe, community and...?

Ok, didn't think of that, because I live in one of the bigger cities for nearly 15 years now and for that reason community and city is the same (the only extra election is mayor).

well its community, city council thing, mayor for the part of the city im living in
