Gluon ran on the [[The Evergreens|TheEvergreens Party]] ticket for Redmont's House of Representatives. Gluon won a seat.<ref name=":3" /> | |||
'''Speaker Election''' | |||
The following information about the Speaker Election is based on Gluon's testimony due to a lot of the old discord group chats being disbanded thus there's no physical evidence for Gluon's claims. | |||
Gluon was endorsed by the [[Workers' Party of Redmont|Workers Party of Redmont]] and also had various allies in [[Labour]] such as [[MJL]] and [[Stanley]]. Both sides demanded Gluon support their preferred candidate for speaker. | |||
Gluon originally announced her vote in favor of [[RaiTheGuy07|Rai]] ([[Labour|Labour's]] candidate) since she wanted to have their help on her Wild Legislation. [[Workers' Party of Redmont|WPR]] contacted Gluon and demanded she vote for [[Xtheory]] since Gluon owed them a favor in exchange for the endorsement. Gluon switched her vote to [[Xtheory]]. | |||
[[Labour]] then threatened [[Raz0Baz0|Gluon's party leader]] claiming that [[Labour]] would make sure [[The Evergreens]] never passed a bill or won a election again. [[Raz0Baz0|Gluon's party leader]] ordered Gluon support neither side. Both sides constantly messaged Gluon demanding she pick a side. Both sides threatened Gluon that they wouldn't pass her legislation unless she sided with them. | |||
Gluon then had a mental breakdown and turned to drinking (in the video game not IRL). Finally, Gluon decided to ignore her [[Raz0Baz0|party leader]] and support [[Workers' Party of Redmont|WPR's]] speaker. Gluon declared that [[The Evergreens]] could not remain on the fence due to how polarized the Labour and WPR dispute was. | |||

'''General Strikes''' | |||

Willow rights and willow farms were killed permanently. Gluon pointed out that the Willow agenda was dead but [[The Evergreens]] continued to run on it. She also pointed out that subsidizing farmers was being advertised as 'support farmers' rather than 'fund trade jobs'. Gluon argued that fund trade jobs could get [[The Evergreens]] more voters rather than a vague support of farmers. This was used in a few election ads but it did not stick. | |||

Gluonmaster (joined 26 September 2025; username Gluonmaster), Gluon for short, is a Redmontian and Mironian politician as well as entrepreneur. She used to be a policymaker for TheEvergreens Party[1]. She served in the 37th House of Representatives.[2]
Congressional Career
Gluon ran on the TheEvergreens Party ticket for Redmont's House of Representatives. Gluon won a seat.[3]
Speaker Election
The following information about the Speaker Election is based on Gluon's testimony due to a lot of the old discord group chats being disbanded thus there's no physical evidence for Gluon's claims.
Gluon was endorsed by the Workers Party of Redmont and also had various allies in Labour such as MJL and Stanley. Both sides demanded Gluon support their preferred candidate for speaker.
Gluon originally announced her vote in favor of Rai (Labour's candidate) since she wanted to have their help on her Wild Legislation. WPR contacted Gluon and demanded she vote for Xtheory since Gluon owed them a favor in exchange for the endorsement. Gluon switched her vote to Xtheory.
Labour then threatened Gluon's party leader claiming that Labour would make sure The Evergreens never passed a bill or won a election again. Gluon's party leader ordered Gluon support neither side. Both sides constantly messaged Gluon demanding she pick a side. Both sides threatened Gluon that they wouldn't pass her legislation unless she sided with them.
Gluon then had a mental breakdown and turned to drinking (in the video game not IRL). Finally, Gluon decided to ignore her party leader and support WPR's speaker. Gluon declared that The Evergreens could not remain on the fence due to how polarized the Labour and WPR dispute was.

Bills Gluon regrets voting in favor of
Gluon regrets supporting the Contracts Act because she feels that it was an overly complicated law.
Gluon regrets the Moderate Bank Tax not necessarily because she's against bank taxes but because she claims it was rushed during the end of her term. She also doesn't think it did a good job at encouraging banks to loan money. If Gluon had a due over she claims she'd make it so if banks loan a certain percent of their money, they can avoid the tax.
General Strikes
Right towards the end of Gluon's term in congress, the June 2026 general strike occurred. Gluon took a sympathetic stance but ultimately refused to vote in favor of congress going on strike.[4]
Later another general strike occurred. Due to both of these strikes, Gluon ultimately gave up on Redmont Politics and resigned from the DoI as well as the DHS.
TE's Downfall
The Writing on the Wall
While in congress, Gluon kept promising the "green wave" where The Evergreens would win more seats in congress. Unfortunately The Evergreens got trounced in a series of elections.[5] While Gluon claims she kept campaigning harder, The Evergreenscontinued to lose thus Gluon became more exhausted.
Due to the Jaron Wave, The Evergreens started facing harder elections since more people could show up to vote and generally ended up voting for people that did mass DM campaigning.[5] Gluon claims that The Evergreens refused to use this strategy despite her demonstrating in a special election using SimplifiedMax that the strategy could win lots of votes.[6]
Gluon understood that The Evergreens party was also losing ground federally due to running out of policies to try to implement and losses in Federal Elections.[5][7] Gluon claims she tried to get The Evergreens to focus on economics, local politics, and events rather than clinging to its existing strategy.
- The Evergreens were losing wild town support despite running on Gluon's legislative record of helping the wilds. The Evergreens were running out of ideas to implement to help the wilds but kept running on being pro wilds.
- The Evergreens ran on supporting Willow Farmers. They wanted to do this by granting Willow rights, allowing Willow farmers to sell items on their plots, and subsides for farmers. Willow rights and willow farms were killed permanently. Gluon pointed out that the Willow agenda was dead but The Evergreens continued to run on it. She also pointed out that subsidizing farmers was being advertised as 'support farmers' rather than 'fund trade jobs'. Gluon argued that fund trade jobs could get The Evergreens more voters rather than a vague support of farmers. This was used in a few election ads but it did not stick.
- Gluon argued that The Evergreens needed to run in Wild Towns or in local elections to make up for the fact that The Evergreens was losing ground federally. The Evergreens leadership decided against this.
Mironia would turn against The Evergreens while other towns did not support The Evergreens.
- Mironia started supporting Labour and Loose Leaf over The Evergreens. When Labour died, Mironia started supporting the Redmont Liberation Front and the Jaronite political party instead of The Evergreens.
- Mountain, Labor Cape, Abedul Valley, and Outer Redmont continued to not support The Evergreens.
The Evergreens members weren't as excited due to the movement underperforming and being no longer novel. The Evergreens had to deal with new political movements like the Jaronites, DIP, Alliance for Better Redmont, Progressive Conservatives, the Redmont Liberation Front. Each of these movements pummeled The Evergreens.
Gluon Leaves TE
Disappointed by the decline of her party, running out of ideas to implement, and watching her favorite idea, the New Player Purpose die, Gluon decided she didn't want to run again.
Gluon tried to mentor various people to replace her such as BennyBoi, SimplifiedMax, and PaintballSteve. These candidates continued to cling to the Willow Wild policies. The coalition Gluon made with the Galactic Empire of Redmont deteriorated. Evergreens were ultimately beaten by GER after Gluon's term ended.[8]
TheEvergreens would form a alliance with Jaronites, DIP, Alliance for Better Redmont. This alliance alienated Gluon according to her since she had personal beefs with Jaronites over their recruitment of MJL as well as beef with the ABR since Gluon thought they betrayed TheEvergreens because Multiman's previous party had promised to join TheEvergreens but Multiman and his core supporters never joined. Gluon decided to leave TheEvergreens.
Early Redmont Career
Gluon took a job as Starlight's lawyer and builder. This meant Gluon was responsible for protecting Starlight from eviction. Gluon in exchange received a 10k Loan.[9]
Gluon used the 10k Loan to invest in equipment and elytras so she could raid the End for more elytras as well as shulker boxes. Gluon traded these to earn cash.
Gluon used that cash to rent commercial property in Aventura. Gluon sold items in Aventura that she got from her End Raids, resales, and scavenging in the Wilds.[10]
Gluon joined TheEvergreens Party, she ran for the TheEvergreens Council and then rose through the ranks to be put in charge of policymaking.[1] Gluon ran several times on TheEvergreens party ticket.[11]
On the first few tries for Redmont House of Representatives, Gluon was overshadowed by her own party members but slowly took off gaining more popularity after her involvement with Mironia.[12]
Before the election that got Gluon elected to Redmont House of Representatives, Gluon was far more extreme in her policy objectives. For example, Gluon wanted to stop "the orange scam", that being her belief that the cheap lava industry ruined coal mining. Gluon became hostile towards any use or mention of lava.[13][14] Gluon in response to people calling Willow a backwards feudal town decided Willow should have a honorary royal family to celebrate Willow's feudalism.[14]
Gluon would run a more moderate campaign focused on rewarding businesses that hire new players and cleaning up the International Community Framework Act. Gluon also ran on not imposing preemptive taxes or taking out preemptive loans to the mere threat of the Jaron Wave (a giant wave of new players that could result from Yeah Jaron posting a video). Gluon however said that the Jaron Wave was going to happen and congress needed a emergency plan in place.[15] On 10 May 2026, she was elected to the 37th House of Representatives during a general election.[3]
Mironia Career
Gluon moved into Mironia while DaanBanaan was President. This was originally intended as a mission from TheEvergreens to establish a embassy/party headquarters in a Wild Town, thus demonstrating that TE supports Wild Towns. When Gluon arrived, the Crimson Empire was attacking Mironia, Gluon helped with repairs after the attack.[16][17]
Gluon has been a major philanthropist to Mironia, she donated a ton of money to help with claiming and repairs.[18] Later, TE officially built their Party HQ, this HQ also serves as Gluon's house in Mironia and a shop.[19]
After Mironia's President Daan stepped down, Gluon ran for President in Mironia against several candidates. Gluon was a very strong candidate who tied with Evefield but lost the tiebreaker. Evefield thus became President of Mironia.[20]
After Gluon was appointed Secretary of Culture, she built a museum in Mironia.[21][22]
