Sorry, sure thing! 1. The Lily-White strategy is not really effective at all. I would increase the boost in the Southern states by an extra 0.02 points. That way, you still gain a boost that is at least usable, even if it is still suboptimal. 2. Small nitpick, but with the Hanna 3b question, you can loudly proclaim Hanna as an Ohioan, but you also need him to be a New Yorker. Would that sort of doubling be considered okay in that time period? I legitimately don't know. 3. For 5a, OH, MN, WI, and WV were all still major farming states at that time period, and were moderate on the tariff issue. McKinley should still get a boost, but more of 0.0025 than 0.01. In addition, for 5d, McKinley was often considered a highly moral man, nigh Puritanical. For him not to attack Bryan would be very in-character for him. Don't give him a boost, but also don't drop him by any number of points. (Also, I find the feedback calling McKinley "bucko" when he tries to attack Bryan absolutely hilarious.) Other than that, I have no problems with the McKinley questions. This has the chance to become one of the best mods out there. |

Itโs like with Dick Cheney in 2000. 3. For the last point, sure. For the first point, I want consistency soโฆ sorry. |

Gerd von Rundstedt 1. Please review new Bryan writing. 2. Iโve changed the lore. After further research, I have determined that Bryan could not have won in 1896 against McKinley. Hence, I have changed the POD to: Quay doesnโt run and uses his connections to ensure Reed wins in Pennsylvania. Reed manages to win a divisive convention, and nominates Garrett Hobart as VP. Reed proceeds to lose against Bryan. I have hence also changed the Reed VP option to Quay.

Sorry bud. Right now I'm working on essays for graduation and I won't have the time to. I'll be tied up until Feb. 22.

This is still on! Code 1 is done, a soundtrack is coming soon, there will be custom quotes, 5 banners and a theme, and the Bryan writing will be done by the end of March!

Josip Broz Tito, A couple minor things: Bryan: - Under Tom Watson's feedback, use foisted instead of pushed. - 9a, do you mean Reed? - 11a, make it sound just a tad more of your own. - 11c feedback, do you mean Weaver? - 11d, it seems like Tammany is too favorable. could you drop PA and NJ down to 0.1? - 12cb, 19bb, rephrase the latter phrase as "_____ is now furious with you". - 18a,b, increase Debs by much more. - 18c, Affect Currency by 1 with importance 10. - 21d, remove the Global multiplier. - 24d, it honestly isn't that bad for you. So I see two options. Either you nerf the option (maybe -0.03 in each of the Northern states), or you edit the feedback (The South is thrilled with this response, but McKinley's attacks that you are a bigot are only vindicated.) - 27a, rephrase the intial question (Maybe to "Republicans are attacking Adlai Stevenson on his decision to remove tens of thousands of political opponents from the U.S. Post Office and replace them with Democrats during his tenure as assistant Postmaster General under President Cleveland. How will you respond?) - 28c, I would get rid of the State Bryan boost (while still keeping the McKinley drop). It just seems like that option would be too good right now, and I would add to that by making the 28d Bryan drop 0.01 instead of 0.005. - 35bb, do you mean RunningMate=Teller? - 37b Feedback, am I missing a reference? That's all! One thing that I think would be helpful would be to work on releasing the Bryan side first. Furthermore, now is a great point to release Code 1 with news that the writing is almost done while reaching out to any coders in the community.

Furthermore, now is a great point to release Code 1 with news that the writing is almost done while reaching out to any coders in the community. Thanks for the feedback! I plan to release both sides by the 98th anniversary of Bryanโs passing (July 26th). Failing that, Iโll release the Bryan side by that date. Iโve made four banners, a soundtrack system similar to the newer mods like 1968Romney, and a working Code 1. Astro already showed off some of my Code 1 on stream, and Iโm actually going to do Code 2 on my own. |
