[QUOTE=Ehera;24408900]Please enlighten me then. Name one thing besides internet integrity and copyright related thing they care about.[/QUOTE] Please answer Tippz question. And calm the fuck down and read up on our political history. Don't you think people raged and cried about the Miljöpartiet, 29 years ago? Kristdemokraterna 1964? Hell, even Folkpartiet and Vänsterpartiet has been targeted for being for such slander! All political parties has to start small. They need to speak for something that people can identify themselves with. It's not until they get a political foothold they can start develop new ideas how things should be. Grow the hell up.

Could someone help me get some details and help me fing the replays when they're done? I'm getting AnharisStarcraft to cast them.
[QUOTE=TippZ;24419649]I want him to see him answer the question now when you posted this. This is what I wanted to say.[/QUOTE] Well, I think both MP and KD had a general idea of how they wanted things to look like, I just can't see PP's politics working with everything else as a whole picture. I'm not against what they're trying to achieve in any way. But giving them a seat in the Riksdag so they can vote for a few questions just doesn't seem worth it for me.
The thing is, they didn't have a general idea. They were just the same as PP.
[QUOTE=Ehera;24430620]Well, I think both MP and KD had a general idea of how they wanted things to look like[/QUOTE] No they didn't. They started out just like PP. Although KD was more accepted. MP met a public outrage.
God Bless Sweden!

My question is Why are they doing this? It seems really cool of them but everything has a reason behind it.
[QUOTE=zombojoe;24456311]My question is Why are they doing this? It seems really cool of them but everything has a reason behind it.[/QUOTE] Probably to get more youths involved in politics.
[QUOTE=belink;24456367]Probably to get more youths involved in politics.[/QUOTE] I hope Politics are more like that in the future.
The pirate party lost? Well, no big surprise. [i]They can't even play online.[/i]
[QUOTE=zombojoe;24456311]My question is Why are they doing this? It seems really cool of them but everything has a reason behind it.[/QUOTE] It's to raise awareness of the unfairly high VAT (25%) for games in Sweden, since movies and music are at 12%. Arguments against it have been that it isn't culture or art, which is bs. This tournament could show just how large gaming has become worldwide, and change politicians' minds about the high VAT for games.
I love my country :sweden:
were there replays for this? please post if anyone can find them i dont know where to look
So anyone got any clue where I can find the replays and details?
if you click the link in the OP and then click on Forum at the top it says this at the bottom Dexxy & Louie: Streaming will not be arranged and Observer will have to have a good reason to sit when it has been expressed that some teams might cheat by telling someone what your opponent is doing. Therefore, we will use the matches commented after the event + release Replays free. thats translated, im still looking for the replays ill post here if i find them
