Guys, the game has actually started now. Stop pimping yourselves and vote.
I realise this. I meant to do post it a little earlier but I wound up having dinner first.
Why do we fall back to earth? Because our weight pushes us down, no laws, no gravity pulling us. It is the law of intelligence.

"A spy is appointed by parliament secretly (if they vote to appoint a spy then the MPs have to send the speaker a PM saying who) the spy sends a pm asking about any baron, the information is not sent back to the spy but every MP"

How is the spy appointed secretly? How de we vote exactly who will be the spy? Is this all via PM?

Anyway, if elected I promise to start appointing spies as often as possible and then using that information for the benefit in the best way possible. It may not sound much, but at least I promise some sort of action that may win the game, rather than Thork who will probably just give you a load of dick jokes.

I'll explain that on the start of the legislative period.

Presumably in the first legislative period, the single elected PM gets to do whatever they want? After all, one vote out of one is a majority.
I'm going to side with the white supremacists.

Yep, as I said, before, the first MP has unlimited parliamentary power. (Well, they can choose to enact any one of the actions described in the OP)

Can they do just one action or can they do many actions?

You can't vote for yourself:

Every player [...] can vote to elect someone other than themselves to parliament.

(Emphasis mine.)

Also, you forgot to count my vote for Supertails in your tally.

Taking both of these points into account, the current tally is:

Pseudonym (1)
Supertails (1)

- Every player (except the Speaker) begins as a Baron, they cannot vote during legislation but can vote to elect someone other than themselves to parliament.

That said, I encourage people to vote for me. I vote for Baron EnigmaZV. (1)

Also, what voting system are we using? Does the person need a majority of the votes, or a plurality?

Also:
Quote
-In the event of a tie, the candidate who got the most votes first will be elected
(e.g. if Mr X and Mr Y both have 6 votes, then the one who first got 6 votes will be elected)

So Supertails is winning at the moment.

You are the best Gayer. :-*

Also Lord Dave, Parsifal is already the press. If you make him the only MP as well, there isn't going to be very much anyone can do to stop him winning.

So we all want a gay kingdom? A big pink kingdom where all the barons oil themselves up and jump into a large pile and writhe around instead of legislating. >:(
