NYJIm77 0 Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 http://campaigns.270soft.com/2018/05/11/2018-ny-gubernatorial/ NYGopGuy/NYJim77, happy to finally be getting involved in the community. A couple of months ago I created an early rendition of the 2018 NY Gubernatorial Election using a previously posted 2010 scenario, but not so accurate as to candidates and information. It was also early in the race, so candidates who never ran full, successful campaigns were involved. I updated the scenario with the projected final nominees, fixed percentages, endorsements, and events. Hope you enjoy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted May 13, 2018 Report Share Posted May 13, 2018 @NYJIm77 You want to do the AG race now that it's contested because of the whole schneiderman thing? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I actually have a large number of State-specific (not generic Federal) party logos for New York State cropped to the dimensions used in the TheorySpark games, if your interested (including all the ones you listed, and several others - including the Rent is 2 Damn High Party).

There's only a select number Statewide U.S. elections I have on my possible docket, and they're all historical (the 1990's being the most recent era of them) and all have a strong Independent or Third Party challenger or very strong Primary challenger who significantly breaks their party mold (in both cases I have in mind here, in a way where a new and strong Third Party ends up forming around them after said election). I can send you the above mentioned party logos gladly, but I can't guarantee much else is likely. I'm just being honest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lizphairphreak 14 Posted May 16, 2018 Report Share Posted May 16, 2018 I'm so glad this was made! I did notice, though, that Cynthia Nixon is only in the WFP when in real life she is challenging Cuomo in the Democratic primary. Is that a part of this campaign or will it be at some point?

I wanted to include her, but was unsure if I should, as I previously had a glitch in the game where (with another scenario) I had the same candidate running in two different parties, making the scenario unplayable.

FrancisXKennedy 0 Posted May 16, 2018 Report Share Posted May 16, 2018 Yeah I wish there was a way in general for candidates to switch parties and continue their campaigns as circumstances allow. For example a what if scenario where Bernie Sanders accepted Jill Steins offer to run as a Green Party candidate after losing the dem primary. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also, forgot to mention this in the previous post, I have added Cynthia Nixon in my edit of your campaign into the Democratic party, and removed the extras like endorsers you put as Parties and put Cuomo and Nixon into, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lizphairphreak 14 Posted September 14, 2018 Report Share Posted September 14, 2018 @NYConservative do you have a scenario finished that I could download? Want to re-live this campaign vicariously and try to see what I can do to change the results haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lizphairphreak 14 Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Sorry for the delay, yeah I'd like to play it! I was just going to edit the original myself, but there's no straightforward way to move a leader to a different party (I was going to move Cynthia to the Dems) and then the issues for this were completely pulled from the original game and not NYS specific.

Yes, I hate when custom-made Gubernatorial Elections do that. When candidates for State Governor are running on issues in their platforms around foreign and military policy and such, as though they'll be deciding these things...

lizphairphreak 14 Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Same! I totally get that it's easier to make and try to run some models, parricularly when you can make stark ideological differences, but it just was so out of left field to see a NY scenario with no mention of the MTA haha, and then to also see that the candidates were basically made to hold the same ideological standpoint on every issue (Nixon was all "Far-Left" and a few others were just given one spot.) I could adjust as necessary but not when there were a ton of other issues with the scenario to fix too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NYJIm77 0 Posted September 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Started college and got a job since I created this scenario, lol - if anyone has a ZIP of any changed version, I'd love to play it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lizphairphreak 14 Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Sorry wow, I did not mean to discount your work or insult the scenario at all! Totally get that, being busy-- one reason why I rarely make scenarios that take a lot of editing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
