Playing Politics Step Three: the Game

Finally, after you draft your team and your MCs hit the floor, you're ready to play the game. Your team of MCs must balance between doing well in one category (e.g. legislation) against another category (e.g. voting attendance). As the Citizen manager of your team, it is up to you to choose what the best method to strategically win over others in your league. Choose to substitute or bench an MC within your drafted team.

As always, you can message fellow league members and other folks within the community with bluffs, hopes for the season, and generally talk smack.

After a week's worth of activity, Fantasy Congress calculates the rankings for each week (relative to other Citizens in the league) and assigns points for the week. The team with the most points in the week will win trophies and will have bragging rights as someone who can really "play politics." No matter, win or lose, everyone gets the privilege of civic participation and a deeper understanding of Congress.

So go ahead, start playing politics!
