Context

On 8th of November, The SwagBall mod team has retired their local chatbot Girard and put him into an isolated channel to rewrite him, with members getting the option to do this, this led to many homestuck's and memes made, with a tiny community growing amongst the new girard fans. With Girard being the greenies favourite source of entertainment, many called him a prophet. The movements On December 3rd, member "charter" was given the unhonourable role of a "greenie" what angered many SwagBallers, since the greenie role is a symbol of either bad humour or being a newgen. There was a minor manhunt all across the server to hunt down the admin that has done these changes to charter's profile, but in the end they haven't been found. With Gatesby trying to to make amends with mods to get charter's role back he miserably failed, and a clear distinction between the mods and the proletariat was beginning to show up. After the movements have begun taking their shape, crochampion has annoucned a full on war between so called loyalists and revolutionaries. Revolutionarie believe that their all-knowing God Girard has predicted the event in advance, are spamming his shelter to make him spew out their spam during the inevitable event on 8th of December.

Loyalist thoughtTotal mod control, greenie mobbing campaigns

Loyalists were a major faction in the Macromaniac Wars. They believe into total greenie death, with green role being the lowest you can go in the swagballs hierarchy (except for punishment roles). They mostly believe into a bourgeois depiction of Swagballs, or alternatively upholding the current status quo.

Swagmen thoughtTotal dictatorship and monarchy, third way.

The Swagmen was a proposed faction during the Macromaniac Wars. It was dead set on creating total dictatorship, claiming to take the best of both worlds.

The Directorate,

Furthermore, I'd like to send out my list of proposes and changes to the governance of swagball team. The Swagmen cooperative (furthermore The Cooperative) wants total independence against revolutionaries and loyalists, and aims to bring the best of two worlds. The Cooperative is calling on ratification of our Swag-Men convention furthermore predicting the following; stop violence against greenies grant launchpad permission to The Cooperative during 8th december parole of Girard (furthermore The Event) allow total murder of both sides, if needed declare The Cooperative as a humanitarian aid organization, fulfilling the needs of girard and the people, granting us total defense from any attacks from both sides, if one does attack The Cooperative, they are declared a war criminal and shalt be hanged at the gallows during the aftermath of the Event, grant The Cooperative rights as a full fledged organization. grant The Cooperative rights to voting ballots and ability to vote in mod only voting. if ratified, the cooperative gains the aforementioned rights and The Cooperative can exercise however The Cooperative wants. The following is the manifesto of the cooperative The Cooperative strives to bring social justice and anarchy into the lands of Swagball Discord, and aims to establish a totalitarian surveilance state and profit off The Event. Verbal violence against greenies will always be allowed, and even encouraged, and the higher up class can choose to or not to exercise those rights. We shall abolish few rules and prepare Swagballs for a New Swag Order, ruled only by the top 10%. Soyjak Gold members will be allowed to participate in votes, while greenies will be locked out out of most institutions, with a really steep mountain ahead of them to become a full fledged gold member. The Cooperative shall hold rigged elections shortly after ratification of the Swagball Convention, what will predict the aforementioned events. If elected before The Event, The Event will be canceled, bringing peace and keeping Girard locked in his detainment centre. Billions will live, however their living conditions will be a whole other question. After ratification of this convention, The Cooperative will be fully established, and the aforementioned - fullfilled, if not ratified however, The Cooperative and records of such institution being attempted shall be erased and never brought up again, with the penalty being thrown in The Pit. Signed by Gatesby

— Gatesby/Koknese, The Swagmen Convention [2]


The Convention was signed only by a single mod, leading to Gatesby voiding the faction.
