| Message | I'd like to enquire why the Lib-Libs keep making proposals against their own beliefs. It's not a method of trying to win more seats due to the game system, is it? |

| Message | How is it cheating? As there is no campaigning present in the game, this is the best substitute. Anyway, you're more likely to benefit from it than my party. |

| Message | It doesn't simulate real parliamentary Bills, does it? |
| Date | 04:11:36, December 07, 2005 CET | From | Txurruka/Aperribai/Mayoz's OPX | To | Debating the Economy Antiact |
| Message | No but its hard to propose the current law and vote for it and I won't give up top spot because I have to stick to "real" bills. |
