So yes, if they both joined in the same thread then you have to go to the thread and see who posted his affiliation with the party first.

If a party exists, then I absolutely understand that seniority is easy to determine if two new players join who joined first. My problem is with the INITIAL members. A party is not 'formed' until the end of the proposal phase; prior to that it is 'in utero'. So judging seniority based on 'who posted his affiliation to the party first' is meaningless in terms of 'the formed party' (which all other language seems to equate to 'the party') because you can't join or affiliate to something that has not been formed yet. However if you add affiliation to the 'in utero' party (which comes into existence as soon as someone posts the fact it exists) then the problem is solved. But it is not a biggie at all, as I say I am just nit-picking . I am happy to leave as it is.

I could join a party that has a goal of always voting together on particular proposals, and then I could just vote whichever way I choose. I could ignore the will of the party and the party leadership with impunity. I did not see anything that allows a player to be ejected from a party, or indeed refused entry if the party so desires. The last bit is because if I was wanting to be really annoying I could join a party, go against its goals at every turn, perhaps get kicked out (if you add language to do that), then rejoin and repeat. I don't think there is anything to stop me rejoining at any time.

What advantage do I gain from joining the party?

Should there be a point incentive? Proposals passed by a party member gives x points to fellow party members?
I'm intending this to be primarily a tool to build coordination between players. Say you have a goal you want to achieve that will take more than one piece of legislation. The party system makes it easier to build those coordinated campaigns to transform the game.
