Question about the past election in this country:
Athlorcaea just held the Sept 2737 election. I'm not complaining about the outcome, I'm asking for a rationalization. The Saiserists proposed three large pieces of extreme legislation, none of which got passed, and went from inactive to over a quarter of the legislature. Now I understand the principle that differentiation makes it likely a party will do better, but this is a little weird.
Also, the Lib-Dems and RASU have rocketed to the #2 and #3 positions, even after almost exclusively abstaining from the last 10 or so votes (in the LibDems case) or just being much more inactive than usual (in the RASU's case). Since the last election, the FMCP has proposed 10 pieces of legislation that have passed, has refrained from abstaining ever, and yet has lost almost 50 seats in this election (2737).
Again, I'm not complaining solely because the outcome may not have favored my party. I am wondering if someone experienced could explain to me how this happened.
