| Message | We would like to thank all the people of Rutania who turned out to vote on our behalf. The results were even better than we had expected. To all the new parties, we say, don't be disappointed at the results. Gaining power takes strategy, dedication, and above all, patience. |

| Message | Stupidfly, you had the chance to be part of the government after the last election cycle but declined to join it. You are no longer relevant. |
| Date | 12:21:15, September 06, 2007 CET | From | Neo-Epicurean Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of April 2451 |
| Message | Imbriglicated, your moxie is admirable. I suggest you work with the government during this administration to help get bills passed that are important to you, which will raise national awareness of your party and secure your place in the next coalition. |

| Message | I will NOT vote for any cabinent coalition that doesn't represent my Party's interests at the table.......unless of course we amended the Rutanian Constitution to allow ONLY the President (Head of State) to submit a cabinet coalition. |
| Date | 05:15:25, September 07, 2007 CET | From | Neo-Epicurean Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of April 2451 |
| Message | If Vox Popularis doesn't vote by the deadline, we will have to consider another coalition. |
| Date | 05:27:06, September 07, 2007 CET | From | Deus Ex Machina Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of April 2451 |
| Message | We are quite offended by this proposal. |
| Date | 05:31:45, September 07, 2007 CET | From | Stupidfly Urbanist Exapansion Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of April 2451 |
| Message | Indeed, of course I was thinking of my own interests and my 13 seats, rather than the two parties that have well over 100 seats yet are completely unrepresented. Well done, Neo-Epicurean Party. |
| Date | 11:47:51, September 07, 2007 CET | From | Neo-Epicurean Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of April 2451 |
| Message | This is called power politics. In the last election cycle, we proposed a government that included the Deus Ex Machina and Stupidfly parties. The robots voted against it and the Stupidfly representatives could not be found to even cast a vote. Vox Popularis and the Neo-Epicureans had been the most active parties before this most recent election, and we constitute a majority without the need for any further aid. We felt that the government could be better run with the interests of only two parties represented. |

| Message | Feel the power peasants. Now we will RULE! |
