Aim Of The Game
[A01] The aim of the game is to win more than 270 electoral votes in the general election.
[A02] To get there, you must win a majority of delegates in your party primary, or otherwise be voted the nominee of that party by the delegates to the convention.
[A03] Two people will win the nominations of the major parties. If players choose to run as third-parties, they may also win nominations of a party. All those players nominated will then compete for the victory.
Character Creation
[B01] To play, you must create a character. Character creation is below: you should submit that, privately, to the mod.
[B02] In each phase of character creation, you will be given a number of points to spend on attributes, allowing you to adjust how your candidate will do. It is impossible to fully max everything out: you have to balance your priorities.
[B03] Additionally, you will be given a shared pool of points, which you can spend in any phase
in addition
to the points you are given for each phase. Spending costs differ: refer to the phase for details.
[B04] You begin with
thirty
points in your shared pool.
Spoiler: Character Creation
Party Declaration
[C01] If, after creation is complete, you have not yet declared a party, you will be required to do so. All party affiliations and characters will be revealed.
Relationships
[D01]
If
you have any points left over in your shared pool, you may spend them to improve relationships with a particular player. Relationships all start at "normal" and scale from very bad to bad to normal to good to very good--you may move one spot for one player for
two points
, or for the rest of your points, whichever is the lesser.
and then we rolllllllllllllllllllll hell yeah

Spoiler: Party Platforms
FL = far-left; L = left; CL = centre-left; C = centre; CR = centre-right; R = right; FR = far-right

also one final note: additional phases may be added without warning before we set this thing off if it turns out theres some other shit that needs player input
note to all potential submitters: the character creation thing probably won't change from this point onward, the main things i've added are a) please submit multiple colours because we're probably gonna get double ups; b) now there's a description of ambition and look its not really relevant but who knows it might affect other things; and VERY IMPORTANTLY c)
it will cost you 1 point to make your home state a battleground state as defined by 270towin, or any of the first four primary contest states as defined by the democrats and gop
I don't know if I was ever going to do this but now that you beat me to it I don't have to be unsure anymore.
You've probably already thought of having yourself play as an independent so that you can see the general but in case you haven't, you should probably do that.
Would it be a waste of effort to include the little blurbs about each issue/position combination?
When you say I have eighteen/thirty points, I'm assuming that means my total in that area must sum to eighteen/thirty, and I am obligated to put at least 1 in everything, yes?

i'll try type them up today but it's like 7 positions * 15 to 20 issues or something so it'll take a while and its not really game-relevant (although, definitely, it helps if you wanna like match to your irl position or something)
