Lying about the coming card order seems risky even if Q is next. Lying about card order if next 2 are Q, that seems to be somewhat less risky.

Anyway I know I’m moderate, if you are also moderate than the only way we get FR policy passed is if MA lied about the upcoming cards and they are FFF in which case both of us along with MA are going to get a lot of shade for some time.

And in that case, you still pass an M, and you get just as much information on YT as you would on any president that would be next in line. Unless you for some reason trust someone else more than YT.

I see BF wanting to be president, because that means he can verify for himself. But you get to be VP and we aren’t going to make it all the way to you as pres, so you are going to have to trust someone as pres.

Apologies if I held up the game! Busy day.

Polls are closed. Nearly everyone got their vote in.

Did it pass?

There were at least 4 N’s.

How many Y's?

At least 4 as well.

What is the "ninth" vote?

It was a Y.

-Why did MA vote “No” after getting mad at us for considering voting no?

-I was passed FM

Red flags about you.

  1. You voted no on my first government (and got lucky justifying it with my draw)
  2. You harping on how rare the card order would be, which doesn’t make much sense. Yes small percentage, but all combos of first 5 cards have small probabilities. And 7% isn’t like an inconceivable event, which as an actuary you should know.
  3. Jumping all over the “skip” theory by talking about how me and YT were in cahoots. Seemed like cover for you to pass an F and blame me based on the foundation you were setting up. Or that you knew YT was a moderate and didn’t want him to get credit for an M. It was odd.

Time to dig deep. Theres already a lot of funny business in the game so far

177

If I follow the pattern from the first two presidencies then I should nominate JSM. I don’t have any concerns with that at this point. Unless someone gives me a better alternative I’ll go with that tomorrow morning.

MA was truthful about the card draw they came in the order the CIA told him.

JB specifically why would you vote No when you know there is a great chance to pass M policy?

To the other 3 who voted No, you may be making a list. Any particular reason you voted No?

179

Well MA gave his reasons. BF & IPD why did you vote no?

180

IPD’s theory had a non-zero change of being right. The cost seemed to be nothing, so it seemed like a reasonable call.
