Forums and Faction Leaders Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

It seems I have been newly elected as Mod, so the first thing that needs doing is sorting out the forums.

Firstly, do we want to continue with this forum, use the police state game one, or have a new one? All options are subject to Ming/the owners veto, but would be good to see what people want.

Secondly, who will be the mod and authoriser for each forum? It's up to each faction how it decides, although I suggest some form of democratic way, and then I'll PM the names off to Ming and ask that the new forums be created. In the state of the game thread, it had been posted that obstructor would be for Gaia and Skanky Burns for Sparta, but please confirm this.

If someone has the civgroup images, that would be a big help too

As for the rules, HongHu has a thread concering what is cheating and what isn't, although that is unofficial, and solely confined to what is or isn't cheating. The rules have been discussed in many places, it seems, but no obvious consensus reached on all, so I'll start a thread discussing what the rules should be, and what should be left up to a faction to decide. Once we've got ideas down, and a coherant set of rules, I'll poll for them to be accepted, and then we're ready to go

If anything else needs discussion, please tell me.

1) If we used the police state game forum I think it would just defeat the purpose of having a new forum in the first place...
2) Here are the civgroup images I have (kassi has the other spartans one)

Oh yeah, regarding what to do with the fora, I'd suggest to just start a poll about it. Otherwise we could discuss about it forever.

Regarding the Police State Game forum, once this ACDG3 has started, I'll offer MWIA to take over moderatorhood and responsibility over that forum. If he doesn't want it, I'll ask DanQ to remerge them with this ACDTG forum, as I already planned to do some three months ago, but refrained from on MWIA's request.

Well, what I was thinking is about private forums. They can be added to the PSG, butwe already have them here, and do we want to just delete them? If so, then I'd say keep it here.

We haven't held any formal or even informal poll about it, but the only two nominees were Jamski and Skanky Burns, and Skanky certainly has Jamski's and my votes, so I guess Skanky it is.

We'll have 5 members
Drogue
Method
Kody
Honghu
Buster

And three of those members are super active. Activity wise we'll probably be more active than half the teams, so we deserve a forum.

Also Moderators can discuss issues and rules in that private forum. While the Narrators need somewhere to store the Histories and organise roleplay.

Sounds good I can't be that active until Friday, since I have an exam on Wednesday (last one ) and my brother's graduation on Thursday. Once we have this sorted out, I'll PM Ming, poll for rules, and then get it started.

Comeon the game has started, setup the private forums?

"Skanky" is the mod for the Spartan forums.
"Kody" is mod for the CMN forums

For Gaians make "obstructor" the mod
For Data angels make "Geomodder" the mod
For Morgans hrmm that's a tough one "jtsisyoda" since he stuck with the ACDGII right to the end.

Also if anyone is concerned about the forum bug maybe someone who's friendly with MarkG or DanQ broach the subject. I personally think it would be really easy to fix, just need to put in an extra if statement in the php code.

Well as has been posted elsewhere, certain key Morganite players cannot access Apolyton, and so if we're being forced to use a poly forum exclusively then that seems to be a harsh ruling.

We would request to continue using our current private forum, and we will keep the poly forum upto date with all our current discussion so that anyone who wants to use poly exclusively can. We would of course allow all the moderators access to both our forums so as to be fair.

Also, our discussion on the poly private forum mod-ship is currently leaning towards myself or AndiD. We'll let you know this time tomorrow if you could hold off until then.

I think given a hour or two and the forumdisplay.php plus the showthread.php I might even be able to learn php and point out what line or two would be need to be inserted to fix the bug.

Sounds fair to me. If peopel can't access Poly, use another forum as well for those that can, and hopefully the Poly problem can be sorted soon.

If there is a reason a team wishes to use another forum a lot too, then I'll happily agree to it, but if there isn't, main forums on Poly is the way to go, IMHO.

That's fine. ASAP, but a day or two isn't much of a problem.
