Message | this would be an interesting change. it would spice the game up. although the lll has supported giving this a try for some time, there doesn't seem to be wide support for it. |

Message | It also, coincidentally, gives the CPV an advantage and the PPP a disadvantage based on my reading of the last election results. The PPP wonders if the CPV has alternative motives. |

Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
