The Talossan Democracy Institute is proud to present...

The Talomat!

54th Cosa General Election Edition

If you're unsure about your vote, or you're simply curious about how your opinions compare to the parties, Talomat is the voting advice tool for you. Answer 45 questions spanning the current Talossan political discourse and see which party is more like you.

Note: Talomat is now complete! If you took it when some parties were missing, consider re-taking it to have a complete picture!

Note 2: starting from today (17th Nov) we also offer an equivalent Talossan language test!

My score:

PNP - 90
NPW - 54
AMP - 48
MTGA - 41

Interesting to see the common grounds and differences. Very interesting to see such a large gap between the PNP and NPW scores, clearly showing that the two Peculiarist parties do offer very different flavours of Peculiarism.


Great tool. Huge thanks to Luc and everybody involved in making this happen.

[Sir Alexandreu Davinescu]

AMP - 74
MTGA - 57
PNP - 54
NPW - 40
FDT - 0
ZPT - 0

Really bizarre results.

[Magniloqueu Épiqeu da Lhiun]

It is sad that not all parties are yet included in the Talomat. Will that be the case, or have other parties declined to answer?

[Lüc da Schir]

As it says on the Talomat's landing page, the Free Democrats are working on the answers and I haven't heard back from the ZPT. I will update the Talomat as I receive additional answers.

[Ian Plätschisch]

AMP - 90
MTGA - 55
PNP - 48
NPW - 46

Very similar scores for the two peculiarist parties for me.

Also, the name of AMP is listed as “Amplifying and Magnifying Passion” again.

Fixed now, but might require recaching to show up for those that have already taken the Talomat.

[Lüc da Schir]

Heads up! The Talomat has been updated to reflect the answers of the ZPT. That means we only need the FreeDems to have a complete picture.

Once we do get those answers, I will tag everyone who posted their results so that they can re-take the test if they so wish.

[Miestrâ Schivâ, UrN]

I told Lüc that the FreeDems needed to approve my answers to the Talomat. I'm disappointed that he rushed to put the Talomat up without even giving us 24 hours to do so. Anyway, we've done so now.

[Lüc da Schir]

The Talomat is complete! Tagging people who may want to take/retake it with all parties included: @etho Sir Alexandreu Davinescu Magniloqueu Épiqeu da Lhiun Glüc da Dhi

With regards to the FreeDem answers, yesterday I said I would publish Talomat as soon as I had "three or more sets of answers", so that hopefully it would be ready for Balloting Day. This morning I already had four sets ready, which I had not expected, and at that point I didn't want to go back on my word.

[Ian Plätschisch]

Retaken:

AMP - 90
ZPT - 62
FreeDem - 59
MTGA - 55
PNP - 48
NPW - 46

I suspect AMP’s similarity with the ZPT is mostly because of our matching (mostly) stances on the Monarchy. The FreeDems are only three points back from them though.

[Glüc da Dhi]

My scores out of 110 (this varies based on skips/double-counts so its worth noting) are:

63
61
59
59
57
44

If I had treated the double counts as normal questions and skipped everything else it would have been:

11 (out of 20)
10
10
8
8
5

Both lists have a different order though.

[Béneditsch Ardpresteir, O.SPM.]

ZPT is the one who I should vote according to the Talomat.

[Magniloqueu Épiqeu da Lhiun]

Out of 96…

FreeDems – 75
AMP – 60
MTGA – 59
NPW – 56
ZPT – 52
PNP – 46

I must say, I am delighted by the results. I am especially surprised that the ZPT has such a “high” score, considering their ämreçh-ful platform. (Yes, I coined a new word for the horror, fright, anger, and powerlessness I felt while reading its rhetoric and its policies)

Thank you to everyone who helped make this happen!
