| Message | Yes! |
| Date | 21:54:15, September 23, 2012 CET | From | Dolgava Confederation Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of October 3369 |
| Message | We will oppose this. It makes no sense to assign two portfolios to the smallest party, especially such prominent portfolios as Finance and Justice. |
| Date | 22:00:31, September 23, 2012 CET | From | Dolgava Confederation Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of October 3369 |
| Message | We will support any proposal that assigns both Head of Government and Finance to us. If someone manages to figure out a way to continue to include every party in the cabinet, we will gladly support it. However, it seems that a couple parties (primarily the Republicans / Democratic Party / Anonymous -- they keep changing their name, maybe we can call them the Undecided Party from now on?) are determined to oppose any power-sharing proposal. |

| Message | I'm sorry Confederation party but the whigs may be the smallest party, you want to assign the parties where they are experienced, you have only just joined but you want 2 prominent roles.. you think that makes sense. |
| Date | 22:24:51, September 23, 2012 CET | From | Dolgava Confederation Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of October 3369 |
| Message | That would be consistent with the will of the people and the fact that our party won the most seats. |
| Date | 22:39:07, September 23, 2012 CET | From | The Dolgavan Conservative Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of October 3369 |
| Message | So did the DPP and then they lost it so we still believe in this cabinet |
| Date | 22:41:54, September 23, 2012 CET | From | Dolgava Confederation Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of October 3369 |
| Message | Yes, the DPP did lose their previous status as the largest party, which is why no one is proposing that they form government. |
| Date | 08:31:39, September 24, 2012 CET | From | Traditionalist Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of October 3369 |
| Message | This doesn't effect the traditionalist party so we abstain. |
| Date | 23:47:36, September 24, 2012 CET | From | Progressive Green Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of October 3369 |
| Message | Just in case anybody didn't know, if any party involved in the proposed cabinet votes no or abstains, the bill will fail. |
