Hardrightconservative Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 I am planning to add more candidates to the whom vs. whom 2008 scenario I created. I want to add all possible Democrats and Republicans who would consider running. I know I made Jesse Ventura too tough in this scenario (he really kicked my ass too! ) I will make it as realistic as possible. Please give me your ideas, changes I should make and candidates I should add/change to the scenario. Any input would be much appreciated.

Kerry Edwards for President Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 Don't forget Lamar Alexander, Ed Rendell, Russ Feingold, John Kerry, John Ashcroft, and Cecil D. Andrus. I thought that was a good enough scenario already , just please remove the line attacking Democrats on Mr.T's bio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And will add the candidates you mentioned. I will also add those candidates to the United North America scenario as I intend to add roughly 25 candidates to that as well.

Hi Johnny, I have always used bmps because the jpegs, gif and tif pictures do not work. I usually modify all the pictures to bmp format because it is the only type of file that the program recognizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny_raoul Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 PS me, I didn't realize the Congressional Majority in the Regional_Centers file was national, I always thought it meant the State legislature! d'oh don't think it has much impact on most of my scenerios, but it might in my "The Wedge" which seems to go to the House frequently (at least in my inept attempts - I kinda liking making scenerios more than playing them, ya know?). I'm gonna go back and even it up w/ 20 Republican, 20 Democrat and 10 Progressive, just to see what will happen thanks! *hopes Anthony will be tolerate yer another file sent from me!* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
