CAPITOL HILL v.2.1! From: "Herr Elfers" <erik.kravets@gmail.com> Date: Fri, 28 Oct 2005 05:14:51 +0000 Do you have what it takes to lead your senatorial coalition to victory, passing legislation vital to your constituents' interests, deciding on national security policy, debating the confirmation of Supreme Court justices and hobnobbing with the elite? If you answered 'YES!', then you have what it takes to join CAPITOL HILL v.2.1! http://www.capitolhill.proboards42.com/index.cgi The game is set in 2008. President Rick Warder, a maverick centrist Republican, sits in the White House. Iraq is a free country with its own capable, standing army, but is still subject to regular terrorist attacks. The process of European Integration has accelerated again, culminating in membership talks for Turkey. In the Americas, outsourcing continues to change the face of the American economy and immigration presses at the borders. What will you do in the face of these challenges? Whether you are a Republican, a Democrat or an Independent, your office is waiting! 1. Give a stirring floor speech 2. Bring home 'The Pork' for your state 3. Watch the effects of your legislation change the country 4. Win elections, beating your opponents 5. Fundraise at galas, talk to your constituents Does this sound appealing? Then head over to http://www.capitolhill.proboards42.com/index.cgi and check out the board. How to BEGIN: 1. Decide on a character name 2. Write a character biography, to be posted in the Biography section 3. Start posting and giving speeches! As you do things, news will appear in the news section of the board, providing a running commentary on current events. I hope to see you soon on Capitol Hill! Take care. Elfers Up
