Synjex Administration

*Preceding administration: Spikester Administration*

The **Synjex Administration** is the currently running administration of Nightwork. Its tenure began on March 1, 2020 after Synjex won the March 2020 Nightwork gubernatorial election.

Synjex ran on an anti-corruption, anti-authoritarian campaign. Synjex stressed the importance of transparency and no secrecy. Upon being elected, he kept much of his promises, being transparent and revealing to the district in every action he initiated, even when it was negative.

On March 16, 2020, Metal15 attempted to launch another coup against the administration, however it was successfully blocked due to increasingly developed platform security. This caused the people to build trust with the competency of the administration.

Synjex promoted the idea of less interference to allow freedom for the people. This meant that the administration deliberately took less action and enforced less to allow as much freedom for the people as possible. While rules became more flexible, the severity of punishments increased. Banning became a more used option by the administration compared to the previous ones.

This administration is the second administration to not have one of the Founding Four of Nightwork to be its leader.

In October 4, 2020, the day when Solarburst and Astrocore were abolished, Synjex left the Original Party and formed the Preservationist Party, which stressed the sustainment of the community in order to avoid another instance of Underground expansion. The party, however, was socially more open towards concepts of "country roleplay," stressing the importance of the community's political environment. This attitude created discord among conventionalists who were also opposed to the political concept of the community. Despite this, policies of expansion remained hardine conventionalist.

From 2021, the administration began to have frequent clashes with the Capital Administration and the district of BobaBase. Eventually, the community began to divide between the Preservationist Party and the Original Party. The Original Party shifted more towards the center in terms of expansion policy while the Preservationist Party remained in its staunch stance against anti-expansionism. However, the divide centered more around the issue of the social environment of the community, where many OP voters felt sick of the dominating political environment of the community.

In the January 2021 Nightwork gubernatorial election, the Preservationist Party proved its influence, demonstrating how most people were still conservative to the idea of moderate expansion. However, within months following the election, division increased ever more while the Capital engaged in more conflicts against the Synjex Administration. This ultimately resulted in the extremely close May 2021 Nightwork gubernatorial election, where Synjex won by a single vote. Three General positions became occupied by the Original Party.

While becoming less popular over time, much of the administration's stances have been consistent. When the Synjex Administration made actions which would negatively impact their popularity, they were still mostly honest about their shortcomings. Overall, Synjex has been consistently above 50% in approval ratings, which is considered a strong number for politicians.
