| Message | I apologize for these long bills, I won't post them after this election is over. |

| Message | And I'll get back to properly debating after the next election. This week has been kind of odd. The authoritarians have never had a majority, and we really dislike libertarianism. We did help you get your visibility up incredibly fast, though. You should do well in the elections. |

| Message | Yes, I was extremely glad that we didn't have early elections. No one should benefit more from NLP's abandonment than me. The post election climate should be more even than it has been in a long time. |
