From-CA 0 Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Hi all: While playing a game as John Edwards, the situation going into the Democratic Convention was: John Edwards, with 2139 Delegates, 35 states and territories Hillary Clinton, with 1654 Delegates, 19 states and territories Al Gore, with 520 Delegates, with California only Northern Mariana Island didn’t count 2157 delegates are needed for the nomination so it was a broken convention. Then, Al gore throw his support behind Hillary Clinton, and my candidate John Edwards, despite being a handful of delegates shy of the nomination and having won the majority of the states, was left without the nomination. Furthermore, I was given the option to continue playing as Hillary. I was fuming! Then, I though about pulling a Joe Liberman strategy and running John Edwards as an independent. I am wondering: Can we do something like that with a scenario change, or it has to be done at the program level. It is just a provoking though, but if it worked in real life, perhaps we should consider it as an addition to the game. From-CA PD: BTW, thank you all for all your comments and hard work. You are GREAT!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

progressivedem 2 Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 It was talked about early on when making the game, but I believe it was rejected because there's no way to get accurate percentages in the game files. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jimservo 0 Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 Hi. I'm new (although I played the 2004 version of the game and lost it when my old computer died on me). If it is possible to send me the much discussed scenario (jimservo@aol.com) I would much appreciate it. I would be glad to look it over and forward any suggestions I have as well.

Grey Fox 0 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Looks good. I just browsed through the candidates a bit (just got the scenario, so I haven't played yet), and I noticed Kucinich has no stats to speak of. Now, I know he's really liberal and is unlikely to win, but I don't think his stats should be that bad. 1 Experience for someone who has served in politics since the late 1970's? No issue familiarity, low stamina, etc. It just doesn't seem completely appropriate. That's just the initial observation. If you had a real reason for doing so (game balance or what not), then I could probably see why you did that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you had a real reason for doing so (game balance or what not), then I could probably see why you did that. I think Clark/Bayh has done it because Kucinich won way too many primaries before,even when he started off with 1%. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oxymoron 0 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 And the reason Kucinich wins so many primaries is that he gets a lot of endorsements, because his stance on most issues is the closest to the Far-Left of the endorsers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
