For me, you'd probably need to show up to some Zoom events to show that you have the command and independence you assert.

Almost everyone thinks that you immigrated after it became clear that your husband was not able to recover from his scandal, and only a few months later he resigned from the long leadership he had of his political party and you, a very new member, assumed command after a private vote. In fact more than one person told me exactly that this was going to happen after you immigrated.

Unfortunately, it's really hard to prove that you aren't just serving as a figurehead for your husband. If that's untrue, it's unfair to you, and probably it wasn't very nice of him to put you in this position in the first place. I know that I personally wouldn't react to public disgrace by inviting my spouse to share it with me.

Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN-GC on September 18, 2026, 05:29:05 PMIt's worth unpicking this phrase "guilt by association".

Does anyone believe that Crement is implicated, personally, in Breneir's sex-pestery? I hope not. I certainly don't.

The problem is that you are politically inseparable. You admit to being politically inexperienced. There is no way anyone thinks, right now, that you could be involved in government without Breneir in the background "advising you". And that is intolerable. If you did want to be seen as politically separate from him, cheerfully letting him nominate you as Túischac'h was a bad move.

You must understand that, to anyone with a mental age of above 11, Breneir splitting from the Greens was seen as a transparent and laughable ruse to create an illusion of non-existent distance.

I am open to suggestions as to how I can demonstrate Green Party independence from its founder other than his resignation and leaving the party. What do you suggest?

Posse on the podium, nice. I am going to try and nudge Crement early for the next round.

That's because your husband stinks in the nostrils of broad popular opinion and you've in no way seriously distanced yourselves from him.

This sounds like guilt by association, Miestra. Something that I hope also stinks in the nostrils of self-respecting people. I encouraged Brandon to step down and make an apology to the person who he hurt so that the Green Party could separate itself from him. He did that. If he had not done so then I made it clear to him I was willing to put out a statement disavowing his past behavior.

For those who intend on behaving as adults we continue to be open to help the nation.

FINAL RESULT:

Pos	±		Team	Pts Ove	Pts Today
1st	(+1)		Naziun Cjovani (CJO)	8746	+1595
2nd	(-1)		Cézembre Caçeirs dals Mailintzarăs (BDC)	8445	+1290
3rd	(+1)		Velociposse Florencia (VFL)	7280	+1425
4th	(-1)		The Manilows (MAN)	6735	+805
5th	(+2)		Els Talossaes Rexhital (REX)	6524	+1530
6th	(=)		Gordon Hiatus Support Team (GHS)	6221	+660
7th	(-2)		Cyclohexane (CHX)	6208	+490
8th	(=)		Port Maxhestic AC (PTM)	6136	+1320
9th	(=)		Dirnalaiset Mortescu (DED)	4240	+630
10th	(+1)		Cézembre Fieschā (CFA)	3745	+390
11th	(-1)		Maritiimi-Maxhestic Mençeis (MMM)	3484	+45

The Menceis basically had no one left in GC (except Vermaerke at place 28) as a result drop to the expected last placed, having not succeeded at beating the previous all time worst score of 3776.

Cézembre Fieschā actually did not perform much better, as Skjelmose dropped further in the final mountain stages. Martin actually ended up their highest GC rider, but still outside the top 10.

Cyclohexane looked like they were competing for podium at some point, but drop to 7th in the end due to having only Onley in the top 10, who dropped to 6th in the final mountain stage. They do get points for Van Aert winning PC and finishing second in KOM

Dirnalaiset Mortescu were always too far behind the top 8, but not in any real danger of finishing last. Onley in 6th, Rodriguez in 9th and Aparicio surprisingly in 14th are not enough for a big end-of-tour points haul

GHST also suffer from Skjelmoses poor performance in the final week (in addition to Widar not really competing for GC after the first week), leaving Carapaz, who did get a respectable 4th place as their only top 10 GC rider. Of course they do also get PC points from Brennan, who won a whopping 5 stages. That is good for stage points of course, but not so much for end of tour points.

The Manilows did well in their second TCAT participation but fall just short of the podium. They are one of four teams to pick Mas, the overall winner, but without any other top 10 GC picks there aren't enough eot points to be gained to stay on the podium.

Banqeu da Cézembre also picked the overall winner (Mas), along with 6th place (Onley) and a very impressive 7th place (Omrzel) and the winner of the most stages (Brennan). However without Pogacar or Vine this wasn't enough in the end against a still complete Naziun Cjovani.

Port Maxhestic finished with the fourth largest eot total, even if its not enough to climb to 7th place. PTM ended with 4 riders in the top 10 GC: Roglic (2nd), Kuss (5th), Onley (6th) and Omrzel (7th) Unfortunately due to Groves early crash they never managed to score a lot of points in the flat stages.

Velociposse climb to the podium due to having the top 2 on their team (Mas and Roglic), along with Rodriguez in 9th.

Perhaps unsurprisngly, the two teams who were not affected by the Pogacar crash got the biggest eot score. Els Talossaes Rexhital, like PTM had 4 riders in the top 10 gc, including the winner (Mas), along with the 4th (Carapaz), 5th (Kuss) and 9th (Rodriguez) placed riders. As a result they climb two places to finish in 5th overall.

Naziun Cjovani are the only team to finish this edition complete. Van Aert was the biggest scorer this time and he gets KOM and PC eot points as well. 3 of their riders made it to top 10, but all of these ended up in the top 5: Roglic (2nd), Gall (3rd) and Kuss (5th). Additionally there are quite a bit of assist points for Cjovani, due to the efforts of Gall and Chamberlain. After a strong final week, including a big victory in the TT, the end of tour points are enough to overtake BdC and win TCAT for the second time since the very first edition!

Quote from: Crement Itravilatx on September 02, 2026, 06:15:42 PMIt was my first time but I think we ran a positive campaign asking Talossans to be kind and consider a future of possibility in the Kingdom. Thank you to the voters who responded to our campaign with their support. Thank you to all Talossans who took the time to consider the parties and candidates and participate in our democracy. Thank you to the other parties for mostly running campaigns about ideas to solve problems and create a safe and fun Talossa.

I am chatting with party members in Discord should we be asked to contribute.

For public notice, after a positive campaign I am disappointed Greens have not been involved in discussions concerning government formation. We now assume that we will be a party on the other side. We remain open to discussion on how we can help.

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on September 17, 2026, 11:40:27 AMI nominate my wise husband @Crement Itravilatx

I accept the nomination.
If I am selected I need to caution I would need patience as someone new to Talossan politics.

Don't forget everyone, the league draft takes place tomorrow. You may select your own players by being on the league draft page at 1:00 talossan time tomorrow or let the computer select your players for you (only big problem with this is that it will sometimes select players who are injured or not currently on an NHL roster)
