US Gov Sim, short for United States Government Simulation and also further abbreviated USG, is a forum-based simulation of American politics. In addition to crafting and attempting to pass legislation as a member of Congress, players can also take on roles as media pundits, governors, cabinet members and presidential advisors, or even the President of the United States.The game is played in resets, typically beginning with the last or the next upcoming real life election year with a backstory explaining how the real life American political leaders gave way to the player characters as well as introducing a few basic storylines to start. From there, the players pick things up and run with it. After some time has passed (usually a little over a year in real life time), the game resets. USG is a long runner, currently playing Reset 14.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })The game can be found here.

Aborted Arc - Any arc that's still ongoing when a reset occurs; parts of storylines that are still ongoing when an admin leaves the staff and many storylines that just don't catch the attention of the players

Adaptational Attractiveness - Politics has been called "Hollywood for Ugly People" in real life, but many players have actors and models or other attractive people for their avatars. This has been described as Self-Fanservice and become a Berserk Button for several players.

Alternate History - Technically you could say that all resets are alternate histories of a sort, but Reset 8 began with a brief, mini-reset period played out in an alternate 1990's. The first few years of a reset also usually have some rewriting to set up the initial storyline of a reset.
