Agitating has gone well but some menace fixing would be appreciated.

I have joined the cause, for who can stand the taste of gin!
I have roused several mobs and set them upon the supporters of Feducci , but find that my dreams have been troubled in return. Is anyone willing to provide counselling against the night terrors?

If you could provide your profile name (since Strokeybeard didn't seem to work), I'd be happy to send help your way.

Ask not what the Campaigner can do for you, but what you can do for the Campaigner.
When you take the time to send letters and coffee invites to other players, you discover interesting things that don't show up on the forums, where everyone who posts regularly tends to have hard to change opinions and more-often-then-not knew who they were supporting the moment the candidate lineup was complete. Here are three things I've noticed:
First, there is actually a not-insignificant number of players who are investigating the campaigns in detail and weighing platforms and arguments before actually choosing their candidate. Second, there are quite a few late deciders who are only now getting involved or making up their minds. Third, a lot of these late deciders seem to be breaking for the Campaigner or very open to her. These same late deciders tend not to be all that taken with Feducci.
We can help increase these numbers with letters and coffee invites (coffee invites being the better of the two). I myself have made seven recruits to the Campaigner this way in the last 24 hours. I also cost Feducci a supporter, though I don't know if they joined our side or the Detectives.
Just, as a rule, only contact a person once, unless they write back and are open to further discussion. Never be a pest (I know most people know this, but some things are worth emphasizing just in case).
.
Generally campaigning via letter box and Caligula's is a lot of fun. Other players role play, they might take the opportunity to send you social actions or calling cards, they might try and convince you that their candidate is best, or they might write you something hilarious. One even sprung a dirty trick on me by asking me to help them with scandal.
So I'd really recommend letter and coffee invite campaigning both as a good strategy and as an enjoyable way to spend the election.
Set goals for how many letters or invites you want to send out per day and try and meet it. Five, ten, whatever works for you. Just don't neglecting building up your election careers.

My character has a large stockpile of Blackwing Absinthe. In line with temperance philosophy, these bottles should be emptied, and so she's emptying them, one bottle at a time. So if you're a Fixer, helping her cleanup the aftermaths each morning should give you something to do.

My apologies, I thought I'd amended my username. As it happens I've had a kind offer from Wan Bowler that I shall be taking up once I get some actions back and fisnish my flash lay.
I've also added my details to the google doc.

This everyone should try and get their election career numberes as they as they can, because that will be reflected in the election update that explains the state of the race.
Note: I made some changes to THE TRUTH ABOUT FEDUCCI. Someone pointed out we probably shouldn't explicitly cite the Nemesis stuff or place those links in character to character letters (as opposed to forum posts). I've also added spoiler warnings at the start of each segment. Please make these changes if you're using the template for letters.
I repeat, the template for letters on page 4 of this thread is now different from the forum only version in the Salon.

Hi! Both my profiles are with the Campaigner cause. The Professor is a Campaigner and Derek is a Fixer. I debated with myself if I should go with the Implacable Detective, but the Professor is the exact opposite of her and would prefer the Campaigner, despite all her annoying habit of minding businesses that are not hers about other people's lives, rather than the quasi-militaristic take of the Detective and, of course, Feducci (pretty sure she can't be in good terms with him after taking a gallon of blood from him).
I'm open to exchanging of donations. Derek got into quite a mess with UP (I don't even know how did he get 9 of it, weird) and has a ton of menaces right now. If you can kindly help him with those menaces, he can fix everyone else in return.

I really need a caricature of Feducci wrapped in Fettuccine noodles instead of bandages. Maybe something with an owl being constricted by a giant Snake in a verdant Parabolan landscape?

For Fixers still looking to clear names: I am keeping my scandal well above 3, so fix away! Right now, my suspicion is high as well, and if anyone would be so kind to help me with nightmares, I would be very thankful (and could repay in kind, just let me know).

Hello all! I'm one of those people who was really torn and trying to research all the candidates, and then one of Anne's letters tipped the balance. I'm a Campaigner without many social contacts, so I'm looking forward to adding my name to the document and jumping into donation trading. Writing Short Stories makes a lot of roleplaying sense, but it does get quite boring...

Anne does good work with those letters. Not everyone appreciates them, unfortunately, but we're always delighted when someone does. Besides, her manners are a damn sight better than mine.
I've a few thousand Echoes I'd be happy to devote to the Campaigner's, er, campaign. Do feel free to send donation requests; I try to reply within a couple hours or so.

No problem. Feel free to ask again. Anne's purse has a bit too heavy lately and it's hurting her shoulder.

Oh, alright! You can see how I've expanded my original campaign message concept *grins*
Also, I ought to mention I've got a few echos myself if other campaigners wish to request donations as well.
