Hi new party in Talmoria (http://classic.particracy.net/viewparty ... tyid=34774) using a a character that is eerily similar to Steve Bannon and it is also not in alignment with the CP of Talmoria but that's another story.

Do real-life fictional references apply to your own fictional work or is just limited to others? I do try to keep my own fictional work separate from my Particracy content, but recently they have been converging and I feel it will become impossible to avoid without renaming everything (which becomes impractical). The two stories are very different, but the factions and ideology is becoming essentially one and the same.

I guess that depends on whether you are a published author. JK Rowling would not be able to use "Harry Potter" if she were to play Particracy.

Not meaning to be harsh, though I don't mind the party's name being in a made-up language but out of consideration to others shouldn't there be a translation? I mean I couldn't translate this even with the fabled Jelbic dictionary. I think I was playing over a week before I knew what it meant.

That’s a fair point, since you can’t exactly just google translate it. What does it translate to?

Maybe it would be a good idea to make English translations of party names in the party description mandatory.
