What do you think of creating Intelligence and Exploration Division (in short: ID or IED)?
It would be concerned with those two main objectives. That could be subjected to supervisory of (one selection):
1) Military
2) External Affairs Office
3) Prime Function
The ID would have its own scouting units and probe teams. The advantage would be that someone would be able to constantly take care of exploration and intelligence. I think exploration is very important now when the territory of the CyCon can still spread without need for war.

Frankly I dont hink it is necessary to create own division to it. We have reconstructed most of the map of planet already. We dont do very much intel anyway.
At least not in-game, anyone can do intel outside the game via PMs, MSN, IRC, or other ways as long as it isnt spying, extorting information or any other hostile mean, of course you must be very careful about what you tell about cycon, the less you tell the better. Also in the past there have been attempts to manipulate inter factional relations by rogue members who have then been thrown out of their faction, so do anything stupid.
From my own experience it might be better if you'd just take your time and get to know your own faction first, then get to know people from other factions. Chit chat a little and you might learn something. Dont try too hard since many people are exteremely hostile towards 'cyconians trying to milk information'

I thought more about probe teams in the game, not the forum intelligence.
Also there are unexplored territories very close to current CyCon borders - thus exploration effort to make it easy to decide where to build new bases, how to arrange them, so no bonus tiles are omited. My thinking is 70% of map uncovered is always worse than 100% uncovered. It may not be priority at the moment to explore, but suddenly we might need a lot of new territory. And it is much better if we recover as many Unity pods as possible, so others couldn't put hands on them

I can make old saves review. Just need to collect them.
The External Affairs office could remain with one governmental official. However there could be formed three new departments under Ext.Af.:
1) DC (Diplomatic Corps)
2) CCA or CCM (CyCon Army or Military)
3) IED (Intelligence and Exploration Division)
---under IED: SPEF (SPecial Probe and Exploration Forces)
This would make some order in issues and separate forums would make discussions easier. Some people could be members of several departments, as they see fit. E.g. if military people would complain that probe teams are not under their jurisdiction, then they should join IED.
SPEF would cooperate closely with the Army, but being separate, it would not have to be concerned with all that military stuff. Spy should think like spy, soldier should think like soldier (in most cases....) And there is no cost to form SPEF now, as i recall there is one probe foil already and one unity rover.
I understand that exploration is not priority now. There is though some security issue i think - to the north from Garland Crater i saw a Believing scout rover. It would be good not to allow them to form a base on the same continent as Cycon exists. If they have a rover over there we might expect colony pod in the future.

Is there any place i can download those zipped game saves? If not, my email is in my profile and it is also here:
marcin777@hotmail.com
if the file is under 1Mb it should go without problems. I can always take several files one at a time.
So it seems i am analysts of the Intelligence office. It would be nice to have special thread for that, where i could post findings for discussion.

But do we have enough members interested in a government position? We already have lots of trouble to fill just the four current positions.
