The Way Forward [TWF] Sign-Ups Thread
This is the Sign-Ups Thread for The Way Forward [TWF], my new nation game set in the present day. (Find the Dev Diaries here.) Public signups are now open. Everyone plays a party or faction rather than a country in TWF.
Sign up by saying you're in and posting a list of parties that you might be willing to take. Countries smaller than Malta in either population or area are microstates and can't be played. You can't play your home country in The Way Forward. Note that if you sign up as an opposition faction and there's no one playing the party of power, you'll be catapulted into the party of power.
Slots we need filled:
US Democrats (need backup player)
US Republicans (need backup player)
Prefer to have filled:
Canada
Indonesia
Israel, Zionist Union/Left Wing
Poland
Sweden
Turkey (prefer backup player)
Here's the list of countries already reserved, and by who. You can still pick countries on this list, because some of the reservers might not confirm (see below).

Sample Signup:
In!
1. Portugal, Social Democratic Party
2. Sweden, Moderate Party
3. Portugal, Socialist Party
(It doesn't have to be 3 parties/factions, but people seem to like the number 3. If you want to sign up as a backup, you can do that while playing another country.)
A lot of you already have reservations. You need to confirm these reservations or you'll lose them.
Sample Confirmation:
I confirm my reservation as the Communist Party of China!
You have one week to sign up or confirm. I'll close signups around noon PST a week from today, on 10/23 (~7 PM GMT), and post a final list of who's player what later in that day.
EDIT: PS: The Way Forward has an official IRC chat on Coldfront, #TWF_Main. Go to http://www.coldfront.net/tiramisu/ and type '/join #TWF_Main' to join.
