| Message | Members of Parliament, I do not in any way know how a separate HOS/HOG didn't work, personally I thought it was an excellent success. My party disagrees with Articles 2, 3, and 4. They are undemocratic. I am neutral on Article 5. I agree with Articles 1 and 6. Penny Sargent Leader of the Secularist, Socialist Party of Baltusia |

| Random fact: Players have a responsibility to differentiate between OOC (out-of-character) and IC (in-character) behaviour, and to make clear when they are communicating in OOC or IC terms. Since Particracy is a role-playing game, IC excesses are generally fine, but OOC attacks are not. However, players must not presume this convention permits them to harass a player with IC remarks that have a clear OOC context. |
