With the elections in full swing, many new parties started to spring up, although unable to achieve the same level of popular success as the already established opposition. | |||
The '''Swag and Security Party''' (<b style="color:#66FFFF">SASP</b>), led by '''Ballistyx''', sought to stomp out chuddery and increase '''Mod-Prole''' cooperation by establishing a volunteer watchguard that would report any suspicious activities to the server leadership. Despite allegations, independent fact-checkers have concluded that this was not a fed operation to influence server political discourse, and that '''Ballistyx''''s high-ranking status in the '''Party''' did not influence the <b style="color:#66FFFF">SASP</b> party's integrity in any way. | |||
The '''Firetamers United Nation''' (<b style="color:#CC66FF">FUN</b>), started by '''Barley''', got its name from its dedication to the fight against '''FIRE''' ('''F'''ights, '''I'''nsults, and '''R'''eckless '''E'''vils), wishing to put an end to negative behavior which had plagued the server for so long to make the server a more '''FUN''' place to use, encouraging stronger community participation in making it happen. | |||
The '''Anti-Swag Militia''' ('''ASM'''), a double-plus-orthodox Moexist-Lesterist paramilitary group led by '''Kelpwave''', split off from the '''Party''' leadership, believing that the '''Party''' had led the server far astray from its original goals, leading to the rise of chuddery and collective '''swag giving'''. Its military actions, however, were not fully successful, and the movement was soon co-opted by the larger '''Party''' from which the movement had split off. The remaining members merged with the <b style="color:#DDDD00">LPDF</b>, fighting with the Lininist cause against the status quo. | |||

'''Chauka''' dropped out of the race, throwing her support for the newly formed union. | The first debate of the March 2024 election cycle was held on '''March 14''', at '''20:20 GMT'''.
