Enough Black and White.

I'm really getting sick of black and white issues, that is, issues with only 2 choices, both of them extreme.

I have dismissed issues 4 times in a row because I keep getting black and white issues that have no logical outcome.

I propose that all issues have 3 outcomes, one of which is not extreme. A good example of this is a recent issue about the "Watershed", the hour after which porno can be shown on TV. One outcome is to have porno on TV at all hours, which is stupid. The other is to ban violence and porno totally, which is also stupid. Where is the option to have the "Watershed" pulled back to 9 or 10 PM?

We're not rewriting preexisting ones; they are supposed to be extreme; and if you would like something different please take advantage of writing issues for us -- because the bulk of our issues were player-submitted.

Well actually even those issues which you claim to only have 2 choices actually already has three and you claim that you have used this third choice 4 times in a row.

Yeah. Sucks, doesn't it? I mean, being forced to play this free political satire game created nearly six years ago as a way of advertising a book. Some people just don't comprehend how hard it is having to drag yourself to the site every time you come online so you can answer these dumb issues, but don't worry. I feel your pain.

Agreed! Also, though I can't take the issues seriously, I do sometimes get a good laugh out of them.
