User talk:Vivaporius

Welcome!
Hi, welcome to Wikination, the Lovia wiki! Thanks for your edit to the User talk:TimeMaster page. Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Semyon (Talk) 03:24, October 22, 2012

Hi, welcome! To start a business, all you have to is create a page about it and buy stores or offices for it in one of more of the various settlements. You'll probably want to first make a character and give him a home, though. You can have up to three houses and you get political rights once you have been active for four days and have fifty edits. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 11:00, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

By the way about developing that community, when you choose that home, you'll need to ask the Governor of the state to build it. For example: Time is the governor of Kings so if you got his permission you could set up a muslim hamlet in that state. Hoffmann Kunarian TALK 20:13, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

Congress will also have to recognize. I'd also advise creating a neighborhood rather than a hamlet for the Muslim community. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 21:44, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

Buy a residence in one of our settlements and create the page about the business, I'd say. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 23:07, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

You change a FOR SALE sign on one of the maps, or in an apartment building, to your character's name. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 23:56, October 22, 2012 (UTC)

Interesting. A bit ominous-sounding. 77topaz (talk) 03:01, October 23, 2012 (UTC)

Welcome! :) --O u WTBsjrief-mich 12:40, October 23, 2012 (UTC)

LMB
You probably know how to write in arabics, so could you create a logo for the LMB??--George the Greek (talk) 09:49, October 24, 2012 (UTC)

Green Party
I welcome you to Green Party, on behalf of our leader, Nicholas Sheraldin!--George the Greek (talk) 23:14, October 24, 2012 (UTC)

TimeMaster is the governor of Kings. 77topaz (talk) 02:27, October 25, 2012 (UTC)

I would prefer not, but you can create a mosque in Newhaven. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 10:57, October 25, 2012 (UTC)

Hey, are you still here? —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 23:14, November 4, 2012 (UTC)

Alright. I've made a spot for your mosque in East River. Pick either 2 Cedar Street or 1 Juniper Street for it. :) —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 02:11, November 5, 2012 (UTC)

Good. Also, would you be alright with changing your sig to something with Viva or Vivaporius in it? Just a request, not a requirement. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 02:15, November 5, 2012 (UTC)

Do you think the GP should join the CNP-SLP-PL coalition? 77topaz (talk) 19:33, November 7, 2012 (UTC)

Citizen
Since you now have more than 50 edits, you can become a citizen! :) 77topaz (talk) 23:23, November 13, 2012 (UTC)

Actually, technically, you're not a citizen yet, since you haven't completed the process. 77topaz (talk) 23:33, November 13, 2012 (UTC)

You need to "submit" these details: your character's name, gender and address(es). 77topaz (talk) 23:36, November 13, 2012 (UTC)

You submit them to Ooswesthoesbes or Semyon so you can be added to the Citizen page. 77topaz (talk) 23:44, November 13, 2012 (UTC)

Just to warn you, you may have to wait several hours for a response since Oos is not usually active at this time of day. He'll also probably respond on his own talk page. 77topaz (talk) 23:51, November 13, 2012 (UTC)

Do you still want to know what you can do as a citizen? 77topaz (talk) 00:15, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

As a citizen, you are able to own up to three residences, vote in the state elections (governor and deputy governor) and the federal elections (Congress and PM) and also stand in them. The next federal elections start in December, so those may be of interest to you. 77topaz (talk) 00:18, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Hmm... do you want to know about the process? 77topaz (talk) 00:21, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Okay. Once the process starts (the page will be cleared out), you put your character name, user name, political views and political party in the list. Some users will post something (a campaign message) at "Speakers' Corner" (which you can do at any time, including before the candidacies start). Then, when the voting starts, all the users will be in a list. You get three votes, a Major, Minor and Support (they all have their own templates). The Major vote is worth three points, the Minor two, and the Support one. Votes can be cast for anyone, including yourself, but all the votes must be cast to different people or not cast at all (this is optional). At the end of the voting period, a user gets a share of congress's 100 seats proportional to the amount of points they received. These seats are used at the First and Second Chambers. A person can assign the seats they get to whichever party they wish, including the party they are a member of (usually, you give that party most of your seats). Usually, the person with the most points in total becomes PM, but a coalition also has to be formed. If a coalition is not formed within the required time, new elections have to be held.

Is that clear enough? 77topaz (talk) 00:34, November 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * One thing: "The person with the most points in total becomes PM" WAS the case. It's been changed so that it can be anyone, and it usually ends up being the person with the most respect, experience, ability to cooperate, et cetera. Coalitions also do not have to actually form, just a government. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 00:42, November 14, 2012 (UTC)
 * Some pages need to be updated. :P 77topaz (talk) 00:45, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

So, have you thought about a campaign message-ad yet? 77topaz (talk) 00:38, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

With an ambitious goal like becoming PM, it's probably a very useful thing to consider. Especially since you/Rakham are not very well known yet. 77topaz (talk) 01:19, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Do you have ideas? 77topaz (talk) 01:34, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

I've thought of something: you could have your character interviewed on The Trio Presents! 77topaz (talk) 01:45, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Rougly what time UTC would that be? 77topaz (talk) 01:52, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

You mean November 15th 02:00 UTC? I wouldn't be able to at that time, I have an exam. :P 77topaz (talk) 02:07, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

What times UTC will you be available? 77topaz (talk) 02:11, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Have you guys considered having your conversation on the same talk page? —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 02:13, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

It's a Conworlds thing, I think. The two-talk-page system occurs a lot there (as well as having conversations on the talk page of an inactive, third user), and Viva is most experienced with Conworlds and Althistory, where it also occurs. It's up to Viva, I guess. 77topaz (talk) 02:15, November 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hmmm. When I was on Conworlds about a year and a half ago and before, I usually had conversations on the same talk page. We also didn't have these new fangled contraptions like chat. :P —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 02:23, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Heck, if you guys are okay with using a single talk page, then it's no issue for me. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 02:17, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

On the 14th, I'll be available intermittently from now to 06:00, a bit more from 06:00 to 09:00, not at all between 09:00 and 19:00, available again between 19:00 until 01:00, when I have my exam until 04:00 (at least 03:00, probably). Does that make sense? 77topaz (talk) 02:21, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Yup. I'll be ready. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 02:28, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

When? 77topaz (talk) 02:32, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

06-07:00. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 02:35, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Good. I'll get the page ready (it will be "held" at The Trio Presents/Show). 77topaz (talk) 02:37, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Gotcha. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 02:38, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

What do you think? I've made the page ready for the interview. 77topaz (talk) 03:12, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Nice. Just in time too, because I've got to head in for some sleep. Night. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 03:13, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Viva? 77topaz (talk) 05:52, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

It's past 06:00. The interview's ready and waiting for you to start. 77topaz (talk) 06:23, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Sometimes unexpected's come up. I may have to go. If I do, I'll be back at around 19:00 UTC, probably. 77topaz (talk) 07:30, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, I'll make my posts quickly. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 07:32, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

@Continuing the interview: Okay. I'll leave you a message at about 19:00 UTC. I'll be available for after that until approx. midnight UTC, and will then be available again after approx. 04:00 UTC. 77topaz (talk) 08:34, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

No, for Oos it was 00:30, so not really active for that time of the night :P --O u WTBsjrief-mich 08:38, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Muslim neighborhood
If you're interested in Muslim/Arabian-inspired locations you should check out the Arabian Quarter in the wikination Brunant. It's not a religious community but it does have a Mosque. HORTON11 : •  18:23, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Yep. Brunant is like the 2nd main wikination, first being Lovia.  Happy65   Talk CNP   18:24, November 14, 2012 (UTC)


 * 2nd main ENGLISH wikination. ;) —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 00:46, November 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Here's a list of all the ones in this "universe". But I'm not sure Vivaporius knows any languages other than English. :P 77topaz (talk) 04:30, November 15, 2012 (UTC)

Awesome, thanks for the information. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 18:28, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Hopefully you can join there, or at least expand your business. HORTON11 : •  18:34, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

I'll be looking foward to it. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 18:39, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

I'm kind-of back, but I'll be back properly in maybe forty-five minutes. 77topaz (talk) 19:16, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

It took a bit longer than expected, but I'm back properly! 77topaz (talk) 20:38, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Great! Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 20:43, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

So, do you want to continue your interview? Donia also wants an interview. 77topaz (talk) 21:01, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

Sure I'm ready. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 21:07, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

The page is ready! 77topaz (talk) 21:57, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

So, what do you think? 77topaz (talk) 22:23, November 14, 2012 (UTC)

The nominations period for the federal elections starts in five days! 77topaz (talk) 08:16, December 5, 2012 (UTC)

The nominations start about 48 hours from now. I presume you'll be running as well? 77topaz (talk) 01:41, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

Why not? 77topaz (talk) 01:45, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

I mean, having some seats in Congress is always useful. 77topaz (talk) 01:56, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

You need to run in the Federal Elections if you want seats in Congress, not just if you want to be PM. 77topaz (talk) 19:27, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

But, to get any seats at all in Congress, you need to run in these elections. 77topaz (talk) 19:44, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

First of all, please have your conversations on the same page. :P Secondly, Viva, if you would like to get more respected and powerful in Lovia, I recommend joining politics. There's nothing wrong with getting a couple of seats in Congress so that you can have a voice in the votes. Thirdly, since you're being kind of ignored by the other users on Conworlds, you can have a second chance here. Lastly, topaz is right in that the earlier you join politics. . . the more seats you will get in following elections as you build up support each election. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 19:50, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

So about that. I guess you are correct (Super and Woogers seem to be the only active users on ConWorlds anyway). And I will get involved in politics then if that is the case. Seems to be a worthy endeavour to pursue. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 19:56, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

Alright, great! Keep working on your non-politics endeavours, too. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 20:02, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

Of course! Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 20:15, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

Did you add the in-Lovia section to Rakham's page yet? 77topaz (talk) 20:22, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

Not yet. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 20:49, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

That could be something for you to work on. BTW, the nominations start in a bit more than 24 hours and end at the end of the year. 77topaz (talk) 20:56, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

Gotcha. Thanks. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 20:57, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

Okay. Anything else you want to know? 77topaz (talk) 21:03, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

Nope. I think I've got everything I need to know. Thanks. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 21:05, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

Okay. Like I said, it could be a good thing to work on Rakham's page, or create/work on some other pages. 77topaz (talk) 21:08, December 8, 2012 (UTC)

The nominations period starts in a few hours! 77topaz (talk) 20:15, December 9, 2012 (UTC)

Familiar
Since i've been consturcting my althistory on Althistory wikia i've noticed your name but never said hi. Ciao! Hope to see cooperation on both wikias :D Marcus/Michael Villanova 20:12, December 9, 2012 (UTC)

Well thanks for the hi. I look forward to working with you one day in the future. :) Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 21:35, December 9, 2012 (UTC)

Actually, he's in our coalition, so you may be able to work with him soon. 77topaz (talk) 21:59, December 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * He's actually not, topaz, though there's nothing wrong with working with him. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 00:56, December 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * I know, I confused LP with PL because of the SLP-LP proposed coalition. 77topaz (talk) 01:10, December 10, 2012 (UTC)

Awesome. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 22:32, December 9, 2012 (UTC)

Hey, because of some timezone problem, the starting point of the federal elections seems to have been moved to 09:00 UTC. But this isn't "certain" yet. :P 77topaz (talk) 00:52, December 10, 2012 (UTC)

Ah, okay. Thanks for the heads up. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 01:24, December 10, 2012 (UTC)

The federal election voting has started! 77topaz (talk) 11:12, January 1, 2013 (UTC)

Tomorrow, you might want to vote here. 77topaz (talk) 19:31, January 3, 2013 (UTC)

Cool, I'll try to remember. Vivaporius says: "I don't need a slogan!" 19:56, January 3, 2013 (UTC)

Actually, it got ended already, earlier than planned. :P 77topaz (talk) 20:25, January 3, 2013 (UTC)

and voting was autoconfirmed too.  Happy65   Talk CNP   08:06, January 5, 2013 (UTC)

Please take a look at this. 77topaz (talk) 21:09, January 22, 2013 (UTC)

Hi, please fill out your National Congressperson Order. Elections ended - you won four seats. Topaz posted a recommendation above, so you should probably use that -- you don't have to though. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 23:13, January 23, 2013 (UTC)

There's a PM referendum here. 77topaz (talk) 07:56, January 31, 2013 (UTC)

There's a government-composition bill in the Second Chamber! 77topaz (talk) 08:32, February 7, 2013 (UTC)

Voting for the Supreme Court judges has begun in the Second Chamber! 77topaz (talk) 19:05, February 17, 2013 (UTC)

New wikination: Tagog
Hi Vivaporius, I just founded a new wikination called Tagog (link). Topaz said it probably would be something you'd like, so please have a look at it :P 4kant,6FRÅGOR??? 10:27, March 2, 2013 (UTC)

There is a new bill in the Second Chamber! 77topaz (talk) 02:39, March 6, 2013 (UTC)

There is another new bill (constitutional amendment) in the Second Chamber! 77topaz (talk) 19:52, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

There is a new vote in the Second Chamber. 77topaz (talk) 02:52, March 22, 2013 (UTC)

There is a Constitutional Amendment in the Second Chamber! 77topaz (talk) 02:40, March 26, 2013 (UTC)

Hey, do you realise you actually have four votes, not just three? 77topaz (talk) 03:50, March 26, 2013 (UTC)

There is a State Reform bill in the Second Chamber! 77topaz (talk) 03:43, April 8, 2013 (UTC)

Marcus (Crystalbeastdeck09) seemingly likes to make logos, you could ask him. 77topaz (talk) 21:12, April 13, 2013 (UTC)

Well, there's a State Reform attempt currently ongoing in the chambers, and Brunant is having elections atm. I might be a bit too busy already to rejoin FW, but I'll think about it. 77topaz (talk) 21:21, April 13, 2013 (UTC)

There is a new vote in the Second Chamber! 77topaz (talk) 21:04, April 20, 2013 (UTC)

There's a number of new polls at Forum:The Pub! 77topaz (talk) 01:28, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks! :) It appears to be the case that some parties are pushing for mid-term elections (referring to the current Congress as being too inactive), so keep your eyes out for things related to that. 77topaz (talk) 01:40, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

There is a new bill in the Second Chamber! 77topaz (talk) 20:49, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

There are two more new bills! 77topaz (talk) 20:12, May 19, 2013 (UTC)

There're new polls at The Pub! 77topaz (talk) 20:35, May 22, 2013 (UTC)

We have Free Society, which could function as a recruitment method. Freedom Press's news is quite widely read (it had the first and most extensive coverage of the recent coup-crisis). 77topaz (talk) 03:53, May 23, 2013 (UTC)

To see the usually conservative Muslim community support a Green Party would definitely be influential. Not sure how much luck you'd have with founding your own hamlet, though (you should first give it a page in your own userspace, btw). OOC, I tried bringing a few users I knew from other wikis to Lovia shortly before the last Federal Elections, but it didn't really work out. 77topaz (talk) 04:03, May 23, 2013 (UTC)

One person initially said they were interested, but then suddenly said that they thought Lovia was boring; and another person liked Lovia, but had no idea how to contribute (I don't recall exactly what they said, but I believe they also said something about not wanting to accidentally disturb things). 77topaz (talk) 04:16, May 23, 2013 (UTC)

On a page in your userspace. "User:Vivaporius/Hamlet" or something similar. Once it's ready, you could then move the page to the article mainspace. 77topaz (talk) 04:37, May 23, 2013 (UTC)

Logo
Hey, did you ever look into designing the National Reserves logo? I was hoping to talk to you in chat with you to discuss it over. -Sunkist- (talk) 00:04, May 24, 2013 (UTC)

There're new polls in The Pub, and also local elections! 77topaz (talk) 05:51, May 31, 2013 (UTC)

There is a new poll at The Pub! 77topaz (talk) 00:16, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

There is a new poll in The Pub, about the one-vote-per-party system in the (Train Village) Local elections. 77topaz (talk) 21:09, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

Viva, where is your house in Sylvania? Only people with a house actually in Train Village can vote with a Major; people with a house elsewhere in Sylvania only get Minor and Support. 77topaz (talk) 22:34, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

Citizens can have up to three houses. You could buy one in Sylvania. ;) Any Lovian citizen can use a Support Vote, btw. 77topaz (talk) 22:40, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

I guess Sylvania would be useful since it has the most activity in state and local elections, and I'm also planning to run in Sylvania in the next state elections. 77topaz (talk) 23:01, June 2, 2013 (UTC)

If you want to be able to use a higher-level vote in the local elections, you'd have to do it quickly, of course. 77topaz (talk) 00:14, June 3, 2013 (UTC)

Depending on where exactly the estate is, you could now change your support vote to a minor or even a major (if it is near Train Village)! 77topaz (talk) 19:52, June 3, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry to jump in, but according to the rules he'd of have to been there more than two months prior, he just created it yesterday of course you should ask kunarian he'll know what to do. Marcus/Michael Villanova 20:25, June 3, 2013 (UTC)

Fantastic stuff, it's good to know you're set up, I don't think you'll have it long enough in time for the Charleston local elections however I will be attempting to pass the taxation act and maybe another act after I'm finished with the two main local elections so the ones after that might be good for you. Hoffmann Kunarian TALK 23:15, June 3, 2013 (UTC)

Well, then, I guess you could still use a minor vote (instead of just a support) since the article says it is in Sylvania. 77topaz (talk) 03:35, June 4, 2013 (UTC)

You mean your support vote? :P A minor vote is worth two points, a support vote one. 77topaz (talk) 03:12, June 5, 2013 (UTC)

Are you sure you did so? Your vote is still listed as Support (not Minor etc.) in the Local Elections page. 77topaz (talk) 20:06, June 5, 2013 (UTC)

User:Kunarian/Local Elections. Pretty sure I already linked this on your talk page a few days ago. :P 77topaz (talk) 03:42, June 6, 2013 (UTC)

Hi Viva, Thameen (the Muslim hamlet) has been added as a hamlet in Eastern Kings, if you would be interested in continuing work on it. I noticed you changed it to Sylvania, I do hope you will continue work with it in Kings. :P —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 22:56, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

Alright, great. You can see where it got located to on the map in the Pub that Cadaro made. Once you've finished, tell me, and I will review it and then move it to the main namespace. :D —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 23:35, June 25, 2013 (UTC)

It does look interesting, so I'll think about it. Is there any space left on the map? Also, on another topic, have you had your Sylvanian Residency for two months yet? If so, you could run in some of the Sylvania State Council elections that I haven't run in. 77topaz (talk) 05:56, July 18, 2013 (UTC)

Our Campaign


Expand education, Create services, Sponsor Business, Support Sylvania

What Have we Done?

Here in the State
 * We have worked hard to ensure that democracy is strong in Sylvania, we have devolved powers down to local levels so that people who care about places can have their say on what goes
 * We have established the very state council we are now electing members to, so that the Governor cannot act in an authoritarian manner on issues important to all
 * We have worked on expanding information about the State, such as road maps, railway maps, what settlements are like what and have worked towards documenting a colourful and detailed history of the state
 * We have worked across the party line to establish a much needed railway line to Charleston, ensuring that it's economy can grow and prosper and that transportation is more accessible to all
 * We have revived the fruitful, interesting and varied culture of the State, and are asking others to help us in this revival
 * We have started the repair work on Train Village and are planning further works as part of the local government to improve it as a part of the state

Across the entire Nation
 * We have updated our national police so that they are a modern force that can combat the problems Lovia faces, the new potential of our police has been proven recently and stability is at it's highest since before the civil war
 * We are working with parties across the spectrum to establish vital legislation that Lovia needs or else it will be inable to run as a modern and liberal nation
 * We are working towards supporting Unions so that all workers have the chance to defend their livelihoods however protecting Unions from being exploited by unhealthy interests as well

Our Policies

There isn't much time until the November State elections, and each round of proposing and voting on legislation takes two weeks, so we are setting out three main points we want to work towards. This is to allow time for other issues and to hopefully get one Act passed a month.

State Education Act
 * Legislate for the establishment of a school support system, including a voucher system to expand choice and school start-up grants, to help get the necessary schools started so that all Sylvanians can be assured of a quality education
 * Should the private sector fail to make use of the grants, I'd like to build community owned schools using State funds, operated by the community and for the community

Public Services Act
 * Legislate for the establishment of a proper healthcare system, which will include the funding for the creation of clinics in all major settlements (villages and above), so that every Sylvanian knows they can get care wherever they are
 * Legislate for the establishment of a Sylvanian fire service, which will operate out of every major settlement, work to expand knowledge about fire safety and assure protection for all Sylvanians
 * Legislate for the establishment of a Sylvanian waste service, which will operate out of every major settlement and keep Sylvania's streets clean and ensure that as much recycling is done as possible with waste produced
 * Legislate for the establishment of a Sylvanian water service, which will operate in every major settlement and will provide clean hot and cold running tap water for all of Sylvania

Commercial Activity Act
 * Legislate for the establishment of a business support system, including a start-up grant system, to generate more independent businesses in Sylvania and allow every Sylvanian the chance to pursue an independent life in business

So if you like what we've done, like what you see us planning to do then and want Sylvania to have a better education system, better public services and more support for businesses then VOTE CNP! Give us your Major, Minor or Support, anything will do, because a vote from you means another voice for you in government and another ear for you to speak to

More Personally
I'd really like it if you could vote for me Viva, I'm standing 3 lists that you can vote for where the Greens aren't directly competing for them and on top of that I hope my above campaign persuades you. Hopefully if the GP and CNP get plenty of seats in this election then we can be part of a (perhaps larger) coalition as part of the Government of Sylvania. Hoffmann Kunarian TALK 13:30, July 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * Great, I'm glad we have a chance of working together. :) Hoffmann LogoCNP.png Kunarian TALK 14:26, July 22, 2013 (UTC)

Are you sure you've only been in Sylvania for two weeks? I thought you created the Estate in May. Anyway, I believe that the State Council elections' voting periods have started. 77topaz (talk) 18:42, July 22, 2013 (UTC)
 * Just to help things out on this one, he's been in Sylvania for just four days less than two months, so Viva consider yourself a resident and everything with full votes because you will be by the end of elections. Hoffmann LogoCNP.png Kunarian TALK 18:46, July 22, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, also, Viva, there are two new votes in the Second Chamber! 77topaz (talk) 20:12, July 22, 2013 (UTC)

Alright then. Thanks Topaz and Kuranian. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 20:45, July 22, 2013 (UTC)

Hey, Viva, did you forget that you have four votes in the Second Chamber, not just three? :P 77topaz (talk) 06:30, July 23, 2013 (UTC)

Yes I did. Thank you. :) Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 14:36, July 23, 2013 (UTC)

Hey, Viva, are you going to vote in the Sylvania State Elections? 77topaz (talk) 19:34, July 26, 2013 (UTC)
 * Please do vote, the Greens, CNP and PL could all use your help. Hoffmann LogoCNP2.png Kunarian TALK 19:41, July 26, 2013 (UTC)
 * Not to mention CCPL! We all could use seats. Hoffmann LogoCNP2.png Kunarian TALK 19:42, July 26, 2013 (UTC)
 * Pretty sure that you just covered every single party in the elections except Labour. :P 77topaz (talk) 20:08, July 26, 2013 (UTC)
 * Labour directly competes with almost every party because it tries to form a big tent, that is why. Hoffmann LogoCNP2.png Kunarian TALK 20:22, July 26, 2013 (UTC)
 * Doesn't PL call itself a big tent party, as well? 77topaz (talk) 20:50, July 26, 2013 (UTC)
 * Because it isn't. Hoffmann LogoCNP2.png Kunarian TALK 23:09, July 26, 2013 (UTC)

Viva, the Estate is in East Sylvania, right? That means you'd have the full three votes in the East Sylvania district, but only Minor and Support in the other ones (including Noble City). 77topaz (talk) 20:10, July 27, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, I don't know. I've only just been planning to run for governor... :P Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 14:39, August 12, 2013 (UTC)

I meant running for governor in Kings, not for the actual King position. :P 77topaz (talk) 20:10, August 12, 2013 (UTC)

I know. I assumed that's what you were speaking about. I don't know how I'd actually become King when I'm an unknown on the wiki. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 20:13, August 12, 2013 (UTC)

Well, one user (User:The Master's Voice) has been repeatedly trying to organise a referendum to get himself declared King. Becoming Governor of Kings would be possible for you, though, of course (though it would of course require effort). The State Elections start in late September, I believe. 77topaz (talk) 03:52, August 13, 2013 (UTC)

Hey, there's a new (albeit strange) vote in the Second Chamber! 77topaz (talk) 20:16, August 13, 2013 (UTC)

You've got a residency in East Sylvania, do you want to run in the Sylvanian State Council Elections? there's a link in the pub and remember you can't stand for Senator atm but you can for Representative, you can only stand in five districts and you can only stand in places where there are not other green party members standing. Hoffmann Kunarian TALK 22:02, September 26, 2013 (UTC)
 * By the way I must say that your answers to questions in the pub are really interesting. I really feel stuck now between you and the other two candidates for various reasons. Hoffmann LogoCNP2wt.png Kunarian TALK 23:27, September 26, 2013 (UTC)

You're only standing in three districts so far - you're allowed to run in five. You could still run for Representative for the Sylvanian Highlands or Discovery Island, no GP members are running there yet. 77topaz (talk) 11:18, September 28, 2013 (UTC)

You still running for only three districts, aren't you? :P 77topaz (talk) 21:53, September 28, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, also there seems to have been a change to the one-person-per-party-per-district rule, that's something that might affect you. 77topaz (talk) 22:07, September 28, 2013 (UTC)

Viva, I think you accidentally entered those in the Senate elections, which you're not eligible for yet, instead of the Representatives ones. :P 77topaz (talk) 22:13, September 28, 2013 (UTC)

Sylvania State Elections


Hey just as we're coming to the end of the candidacy period for the Sylvania State Council I'd like to draw your attention to my campaign for both seats in the Council and for the position as Governor of Sylvania. In our culture policy we're aiming to really bring knowledge about local and state culture to our youngsters, we want more libraries and museums as well as local and state history being taught in schools. With our economic policy, we want to bring business and unions together and we want to support entrepreneurs and fight multinationals. And in policing, we really want to crack down on anti-social behaviour and invest in a police academy. Not to mention we want to actually build the health service we've recently legislated for.

I'd like you to take a look at my campaign in speakers corner where you can ask me questions about my policies and how the CNP will govern in Sylvania. You can also take a look at our policies in more detail, we're currently constructing our policies so if you want to query us about a policy not yet detailed then feel free to go ahead.
