Is Sabai corrupt or a bad possibility for eThai?  Because if not wouldn't it be better to work with them to ensure that the TNT gets as few seats as possible (in other words: why compete with them in the south when we could spend resources elsewhere)?

I'll go out for Congress in Northern Thailand too.
I would like to see one or two people contest in the North
Looks like you got your wish.

Sabai is not corrupt. TNT is the only party that has exhibited active corruption; the other parties all formed a coalition to oust them. Sabai has also shown a great deal of willingness to listen to other parties and work with them, up to and including having 1/3 or 1/2 of government ministers in a Sabai government coming from non-Sabai parties.

I'm running in the NorthEast. Would be nice to have a seat since I'm running the lottery but not essential.

Beorn: we don't have so many candidates that I'll turn anyone away who wants to run. Frankly, I'd like to see at least one more running in the NE so we have 4 candidates, plus another in the North (I think we have a non-B12 TRP candidate who should be contesting there). I really don't want to see any seats going unfilled or getting eaten by TNT for want of a candidate.

Right. Once all candidates are listed I'll tally semi-probable votes an send out PMs on eRep haranguing people to vote for persons X, Y, or Z. Those will be done by end of day Monday.

And on Wednesday, we get to find out what oversights and/or bugs slipped into the admin's latest attempt to make Congressional elections.

If there's a need for a candidate somewhere, I can run. I wouldn't want to take the place of someone who really wants to be a congressman though.

And Wallish, tell your eUSA loving brother to give me back my moving ticket! >:(

Heh, with the way he thinks he'll probably insist on keeping it.  I just sent you a shiny new one, though.

But I really need the question answered of should I stay in the iron industry?  Should I switch over to grain or wood or even jump to manufacturing/construction?

Wooty: sure go ahead. I'd say North or NE CENTRAL would be best. Depending on how many people we have to vote in each area and how many TNT visibly does, I'll take your lack of an overwhelming desire to run into account when considering who to assign voters to (i.e., if it looks like we won't have enough voters to take all contested seats, we'll end up prioritizing... but we may well have enough to take what we contest).

Wallish: your call. The eThai Weapons industry is probably currently the most profitable one we have, given the glut of war and rumors of war. So Iron is in demand. But then, so is Grain and Wood. I'd stay in harvesting though. There's been some effort to shift people into that domain.

Eep! Any B12 people who aren't already standing for Congress, please stand in Central Thailand. We currently have 0 people standing there, and we'll certainly have voters there (no matter how hard I might try to re-distribute them elsewhere).

i am not standing for the congress, but i am not in central thailand. i was told to stay in NE (or was it north? i'll check later) to vote.
and i don't think i should go to congress... should i still go?

Ugh, I don't know if we can spare the voters in NE, but... yes, go, if you would, please. I can always try to herd some cats to NE by end-of-day tomorrow, but candidates need to be in place today.

Ticket on its way...

(As to the prices, don't ask. The Moving Ticket market seems to set its prices randomly...)

done.

i hope people don't mind if i didn't write anything about it...
i didn't think i would ever run for the congress. and i don't have a newspaper.
i ran ,mainly to help my party, that needed a candidate in central thailand. but if i get elected, i promise i will do my best to make thailand a better place, by using my vote as wisely as i can.
most of you barely know me in erepublik, and i haven't spoken much; how can you be sure that i will do a good work as a congressman? you can't. neither can i. but , while i am still new as a politician, i'll work to be better, to improve myself.
and i'll spellcheck my post (if you read them, you will find that they have many errors).
also, if i get elected, i'll use part of the money to make a newspaper, to communicate both with the people who voted me and those who didn't.
