Hey folks, RTKH here (the 2022jair/2278louisiana guy)

Because I said I was against mandatory race-mixing and they interpreted it as meaning I support segregation, so that's le wrongthink.

I know this sounds like a biased description, but if you don't believe me, just check the message logs on Discord. I said "I like being White" in response to "why are you against mandatory race mixing?"

Would Humphrey made a good compromised candidate for the 1976 election and if not then who?

>>1862484
Probably better, Ford was a better administrator than Carter, and a Republican win in 76 basically guarantees a democrat in the 80s, likely Ted Kennedy.

No, I'm questioning why people even like this game in the first place.
US Presidential election what-ifs are perhaps the most boring possible alt history.
No wonder people from this game's modding community hijacked TNO and are busy cutting anything fun out of it, arbitrarily using "realism" and "current standards" as a cudgel to remove things they don't like and add things they do.

you're a retard if you think the fags who run TNO came from here. it's the other way around

I struggle to have any sympathy for Tom when he was the one who made it a personal crusade to exile the IW guy, using the complaints about the Dixiecrats to mask his own ego-driven motive. He started the decline. He took pride in driving that guy out the same way these people take pride in driving him out. Is there a conspiracy? Yes. Did Tom have the same negative qualities as these people, but with a conservative coat of paint? Also yes. These things are not mutually exclusive

This is why yupperdoo is my favourite modder. He has an absurdly high output of mods, never engages in drama, and never responds to criticism. Most of the community agrees his mods are unfun, badly written, and historically inaccurate, but he doesn't care. He makes mods purely for the joy of making them according to his own autistic specifications. He's the polar opposite of these microcelebrity shitters who live and die on clout.

Just finished my first, blind playthrough as Liam. His side is a very odd case because I found it more difficult than Languedoc's not because of game mechanics but because I found it a lot more challenging to get into Liam's headspace and understand what he and his side wants if that makes sense. Still I think I did pretty well. I sold the medicine for a low price, went all in on Violet, and got a surprise buff towards the end from heavily diluting my isolationist message.

Update: I got the new ending for Languedoc. I'm not ashamed to admit that I had to look at the source code to find this one (the choice that unlocks it to begin with requires 5 or more bad karma, which interestingly doesn't seem mathematically possible without killing Camp Thibodaux)

Honestly I kinda like it? It's bleak as shit but fitting in a way since you have to go so far out of your way to act like an unapologetically evil jackass, and then ignore the story all but spelling it "do not fucking do this or everybody will die."

I'm a little surprised by that, I figured his ideology would be similarly easy to wrap around as Languedoc's.

This was a real punch to the gut. It was actually a truly devious move to make it an achievement because on an evil playthrough a player might sincerely think Chamberlain isn't a serial child molester only for the achievement to pop up and more or less confirm out of game that the accusations are true.

The first time I got this cheevo I had to get up from my computer and stop playing for a few minutes to process how the game unironically managed to make a pacifist just as morally repugnant as a social darwinist warmonger, without compromising his stances and killing anyone.

The premise for the mod, as Mango says:

I find L&L to be pretty bland, but this is an incredibly shitty takedown. Its ridiculously vague, and the random lack of capitalization makes obummer look like a rambling retard.

Its mediocre. Was I supposed to scream and shit my pants when the entire government exploded? Fakeouts are overdone, the reason why they worked in the past was because they were genuinely unexpected, now when anybody releases a mod and some faggot says that its soooo crazy you know that someones going to die, or some candidate is gonna gets swapped out for a super secret guy, or some other bullshit. If you can't innovate in any meaningful way then you might as well make a straight forward (bryanesque if you want to call it that) mod, something like that can at least be evaluated on its quality rather than triggering an immediate fanbase of redditors going "OMG this is amazing I didn't expect that!!!!!!"

This is the one time that the W.fags are right. The mod sucks. Its a buggy mess filled with typos. The basic premise, most of the government dying right before an election, was only used to create a neolib fantasy where the US can destroy Iran in two weeks and be justified in doing it. The only reason that its getting high praise is because the tct community is filled with absolute retards that can't conjure up a single rational thought after they see a big explosion.

>>1866751
Even reading it as a pulpy Tom Clancy premise, it's still really stupid. Usually those stories would make mention of a hardliner getting into office or some unhinged general gone rogue. Iran had its president die in a helicopter crash this year, and held a snap election. Plenty of opportunities to incorporate that into this premise. Instead DM's writer didn't bother with this (or spellchecking) and just assumes they're a country run by the villains from True Lies. There is one country that's been assassinating foreign political leadership with bombings lately, and it isn't Iran.

>>1868413
>The basic premise, most of the government dying right before an election, was only used to create a neolib fantasy where the US can destroy Iran in two weeks and be justified in doing it.
That's another gripe I have with it. The W. writers at least understood that an invasion of Iran would be a disaster regardless of justification.

the problems I have with it are more the fact that

3) he assumed that the purpose of the exercise was to be a stupid game with a "winner" and a "loser" when in fact the point of the exercise was to stress-test the command and control systems. granted he was told by the event organiser "try to win at all costs" which was a stupid instruction

Tl;dr Everyone loses World War 1

Longer explanation; It's an Entene Phyrric Victory, with France and Germany falling to Futurist and Communist Revolutions respectively, while Russia is technically ruled by a White Army Junta which is more like a loose alliance of warlords against anti-government forces. Britan lost India and is barely holding on and the Great Depression started under Coolidge because everything is so fucked.

This type of shit is a recipe for another Obamanation. Can't wait for the retarded vacillation between INSANE right wing NONSENSE where Hillary is sacrificing babies to Baphomet and bland center left critiques about drone strikes or whatever. Unfortunately, I don't think it'll get the same reaction as Obamanation, since that was pretty much a perfect storm of garbage, but a man can dream.

I mean Obamanation itself was supposed to be a commentary about Obama's rather mild mannered personality, and the extremely vitriolic reaction the dissident right had to him.
It actually kinda succeeded in that metric, but I question the amount of the mod dedicated to Obama's ties with further left political figures, I think Obamanation makes that connection out to be a bigger thing than it was.
>>
>>1880625
Obamanation wasn't "supposed" to be anything past W. but Obama. Theres no actual narrative or creative through line to it. It randomly swaps between (usually ill fitting) Tea Party terminology, facebook tier Obama is a communist muslim shit that doesn't go near as far as real facebook republicans did (seriously is there even a single birther reference? Or even Obama being a homo and Michelle being his beard/secretly a man?), and bland lefty criticism about drone strikes. Obamanation was a failure on every metric, mechanically overcomplicated, narratively confused, and creatively bankrupt. An absolutely terrible mod in concept and execution.

>>
>>1880648
Obamanation clearly started as just a complete recreation of W., which is the source of most of its problems.
The confused tone comes from trying to rip off the very anti-Bush tone of W. without actually picking a side of which way to attack Obama on.
The alt-history is there just because W. is a no 9/11 scenario, and so the creators thought they needed an alt-history element, even though that adds nothing to the actual mod.

There is a lot of good in Obamanation, the writing is generally good, I love the amount of paths and opponents and CYoA stuff in there, but the faults are very visible.
Also I think these CYoA mods really suffer when the various hidden variables aren't explained to the player. It's no fun to pick random answers and not know what changed, it's more fun to start out with a plan and then built on that.

Carter was a better president than Ford would have been. Carter was a pretty shit president as far as post-war Democrats go because he was too conservative and was quite simply incompetent.

So what you're telling me is all of them gave up on their leftist larp and are just liberals now? Leftists specifically wanted Trump to win because of that accelerationist bullshit about it leading to class consciousness. It's basically right there at the top in their Project 2024 mod

Ettingermentum is hilarious because he clearly wishes he was a genuine leftist. But if you're that emotionally invested in American "left" electoral politics, you're forced to become a liberal. He facetiously brought Dark Brandon and the fucking coconut emoji shit into being and felt all contrite when a gigantic mass of dumbass Democrats ended up taking it seriously. Pic related.

Nope, Astro added North Carolina, because obviously Harris was going to outperform Biden. Especially funny because Harris pulled all her funding out of NC a few weeks before the election, I guess Astro didn't think too hard about that.

Any quality 2024 mod will give you the option to swap out both trump via assassination and biden via dropping out

It should also give you the opportunity to have Biden alllow an open primary or not.

Depends on if he had continued his first debate performance for the rest of the campaign or not. If so, he'd lose badly. If not, it would be a narrow win or loss.
>>
>>1891135
>it would be a narrow
But why would it be narrow?
>>
>>1891140
It'd be narrow because no matter what the rise in grocery prices and other costs was going to hurt the Dems due to them being in power. So if he ran a coherent campaign, his appeal in the Midwest would make it a lot closer. But If he kept on his post debate downward spiral, he might have wound up like Carter in 1980.

Its a shame that Liberty and Liberalism is so ass. Ron Paul is an interesting figure, and a mod about trying to keep his bizarre and contradictory coalition (ranging from anti-war activists to Buchananites) together until he reaches the finish line would be great. L and L just isn't that though, instead its a scenario about a kook that needs to downplay his opinions to be a more boring repub. They also get a bunch of shit wrong about him and how the inevitable republican backlash would manifest. Some of which they fixed in the updates (Ron Paul is no longer pro-campaign finance reform, but he still claims to support NCLB though the feedback now acknowledges that he didn't which is very weird) but a lot of it wasn't (Rush Limbaugh of all people leading the third party splinter, the only ideologically aligned vp that Paul can take is the tv guy). It sucks that a mod featuring the funny internet guy is so bland, just another mod in the pile of W. rip offs that might have been good had the creators been a bit more creative.

I haven't even talked about the Kerry side, but long story short that one sucked too. Of course there is only so much you can do with Kerry, as establishment dems are not particularly overflowing with interesting story potential. I was toying around with the idea of an Edwards presidency instead, basically moving the point of divergence to Edwards getting the nomination in 04. Then the mod would be more about trying to pass Edwards' populist, left-from-orthodox-dems agenda while his massive character flaws threaten to destroy everything hes working for. You'd probably have to do away with the Ron Paul side, because Paul kinda relies on going up against a more establishment figure, but I think it would be an interesting mod nonetheless.

Send Bradley to the Upper South, but do not change Harrison's speeches to cater to the South. That'll keep your margins in the North solid while allowing you to crack some of the states like Virginia and North Carolina.

I pretty much already said it, but I'll go into slightly more detail I guess. Paul's side should be all about on maintaining broad anti-establishment appeal, he should be focused on squaring all the contradictory stances that fuel his campaign. One wrong move puts his scattershot base in jeopardy, but constantly going for bland unoffensive answers deflates his anti-establishment enthusiasm. If the cyoa is still there this is where it'd come it, there would different endings depending on how Paul balanced out his support. Whether he goes hard on the anti-war stuff, hard on anti immigration to shore up the paleocons, emphasizes the socially liberal aspects of his libertarian ideas, emphasizes the fiscally conservative aspects of his libertarian ideas, etc. Third party backlash would come in the form of establishment neocons, probably someone from Bush's cabinet (Cheney, Huntsman, Rice)

For the Kerry side, I dunno, use my Edwards mod idea instead? Honestly if it was me I'd just cut out the Kerry side entirely, make the mod completely about Paul vs the establishment. A theoretical Edwards mod would similarly be entirely his side.

When I tell you these people are traumatized by it, I don’t mean it in a “this shit sucks” kind of way, I mean it in a “You’re only allowed to make these about le heckin ebil rethuglicans” kind of way. They wanted Obama to be portrayed as the second coming and now they want the same for Bernie.
