| Message | OOC: Seeing all the regions are practically the same size, I don't really see any issues with the current system. I saw that DNVP got more votes but less seats than me, I think that's mostly attributed to the presence of the Liberal Socialists as they still got some votes. |

| Message | What's this? The Fortschritts Partei is against democracy? The system will make it so all parties get seats that are equivalent to the amount of votes that they have won. |

| Message | And your LSVS hypothesis is total bs. Why would I get less seats because of a party that not only has no seats, but is at the complete other end of the political spectrum from me? I am a socially conservative, economically liberal party, and they are a socially liberal, economically socialist party. |

| Message | But yes, clearly the "most pro-democracy party in Dorvik" is not what it seems. |
