| Message | Are you going to change number of senators every month? |

| Message | Given that the Senators present cannot change until the 2055 election anyway, we might as well just wait until shortly before the election, and changing it only the once - this time is redundant. |

| Message | Although I see what DS means. Would it be voted for if it was proposed nine months before the next election (giving it eight months for voting)? |
| Date | 15:01:13, May 14, 2005 CET | From | Democratic Socialists | To | Debating the Seats of Senate Act II |
| Message | Yes, we would vote for the necessary seat alteration at that point. |
