Wow this is one heck of a long thread, no way I'm reading it all.

I remember the old days.

Then there wwere the days of the UFC, ... the UFC was the United Front Coalition and that was the Hawks, Imperialists, and 3WC (or something like that) and maybe some other groups joining together to oppose the DIA.

And there were those guys Trip and Timeline making waves causing arguments/discussions between UFC & DIA.

Then there was some loud mouth independents complaining about all the party politics and so all the politicians became "independent", well many did.

Oh yeah, in those days being a member of the DIA or any other group wasn't immediate cause for bashing by undercover UFC'ers calling themselves independent (the UFC members were out in the open).

And there were those great weekly installments in the Jungle Gazette about an adventurer, whose name escapes me.

Ahhh...the good old days.

I was actually thinking of science minister, but thats already loaded with candidates. Thats would have been the best fit for my schedule. Instead, I'll just cruise from thread to thread complaining about how much time we waste planning for war after war, and so little planning we do for our culture. Some loud mouth Hawk or undercover Hawk will tell me that its war that got us here, I say that there is a time for war we all now know, but soon we will know that there is a time for peace if we don;t already, and peace needs to be planned for to.

Go DIA....we need to start thinking about a break from war for the time being and some spend some time on proper building up of our infrastructure, culture and science.

Good Luck to all those running.

Gosh, TWELVE PAGES of posts and still no one to run against me. Sigh.


That's because you are doing such a GREAT Job as MoE. I'll have a look at it, but I'm making my own so that I can quickly reference it when I want to (Excel loads up MUCH faster that Civ III). Plus, it gives me something to do with that MS program that just usually takes up room on my hard drive.

Apoc - I have one more 2000 word essay to right and then it's

EXAM LEAVE!

Hence I will have just over ONE MONTH before I go to Canberra for summer and have to leave my comp (and possibly all access to games) behind. Whilst there (until middle of Feb next year), I will hopefully have 'Net access, but will be unable to be Minister of any sort - they need to be able to look at the game to be effective :

OPD - I have not been avoiding things, merely concentrating on getting the pettiness of RL out of the way before my final deadlines on Friday. I have some more to do, but soon there will only be exams left.


And two candidates making a good election?




I would like to run for President one more time here, in these elections. I expect to leave the country the 16th (my time), so I can be here a full term. There are only a few days that I have commitments of amy kind until then (4 exams), and I will do as many turnchats as I am able to. It may certainly be necessary to do threads occasionally, but I will be damned if I gave up on chats completely without a few more tries.

Now if you will excuse me I have RL to attend to, then I will post my intentions in the campaign thread within 24 hours.

MWIA grins and raises an eyebrow at OPD

OPD looks at the ground

Meh, i don't need to run for any post really. and President is the only post i have the urge for.

I will give MWIA as much of a challenge as I can, but if I should lose, the nation will be in good hands, im sure. May the best Ex-President win!

Since this isn't the campaign thread and we don't have to toot our own horns here, everyone keep in mind WhiteBandit - this guy has been stalwart with PW Minister for two terms now - I don't want him to be forgotten just because two ex-Presidents are in the running as well.

I was nothing in this game before becoming President, and there were problems, but everything turned out OK. Just imagine what it could be like if someone with actual Ministerial experience was elected for once?

Ninot, WB - this is great. How could I resist the opportunity to run against a legendary President like Ninot and one of the most consistent, experienced Ministers we have, like WB?

What a shame. Three examplary Apolytonians, all in the same race.

Hey guys, i got an idea. Lets split up into some of the other campaigns. We could beat anyone

we could have a party! The Winners Party!

oops... ill shutup now.

ahem... legendary President? Thank you MWIA, you make me blush . Your no slump yourself, had a good term, and your Citizen 1!!!!!

and White Bandit is truly one of the best all time ministers we've had.

Something I said troubling you, Ghengis?

And it's Anarchist - I am/was the sole member of the 3A2C3 - whose only policy was to prevent over-detailing positions and rules within the game, in an attempt to get things to be more on friendly agreements, as in the Civ2 game.

You can see how successful we were by looking at the size of the Constitution.

And what can I say about UnOrthO's entry to the VP race?

Re: Term V Nomination Thread. Got spare money?

Just for fun people:

ELECTION 490
Analysis and Coverage of the Apolytonian Elections

Executives:
President:

Ninot (Independent)
"Independent"? If it talks DIA, walks DIA, and smells DIA mamma sez it IS DIA. The old geezer wants all the benefits of being DIA and none of the hassles.

WhiteBandit (Independent)
More of an actual "independent" WB ususally goes into stealth mode and only appears to post orders then vaporizes from existence again.

MrWhereItsAt
Where's he been? Referred to as "the Anti-Christ" by UnOrthOdOX, he is trying to reclaim the throne 'usurped' by OPD in the last election.


Vice President:

Arnelos (DIA)
Considered to be one of the most analytical politicians in Apolytonia, Arnelos has been rapidly rising through the offices of Apolytonia in a race to the throne.

UnOrthOdOx (Hawk)
The 'puller of strings' in Apolytonia's media industry. The publisher of the Gazette will once again try to generate his own stories from a political office.

Ministers:

Military:

Aggie (Independant)
Currently the only candidate as the other four who announced they were runing have disappeared.........

Economy:

Reddawg
One of the greatest economists in known history, does anyone really care about economics?

Science:

Duddha (Hawk)
Leader and Founder of the theory of Apolytonian pure blood policies, he has several plans for experimenting on foreign nationals...............

Thud (DIA)
He's running now, but he may disappear again tomorrow.

ThePlagueRat (Independant)
A mysterious candidate, he has hinted on several disease based research strategies.

Foreign Affairs:

Nimitz (DIA)

Having spent the last term digging up dirt on his superior, he now feels it is time to show Apolytonia the "brains behind the ministry".

Togas (Independent)
Probably the most entrenched incumbant in our electoral history. He will be difficult to beat.

City Planner:

E_T (??)
Is he not party affiliated or simply confused, we shall soon discover the truth.

Zeit (Independent)
So eager for the job he has attempted to boot out the current office holder and take over already.

HistoryGuy (Hawk)
Rumor has it, he's running for office simply so he can rename all the regions to his liking. (Thought I forgot about that, didn't you.........)

Public Works:

GhengisFarb (Independent)
What is there to say? Excellent candidate, great family heritage, perfection incarnate............( )

Imperial Expansion:

Meshelic (Hawk)
Rumored to be connected to the Shadow Service, he appears to be the heir apparent for the Imperial Expansion post.

Apoclypse (Independant)
Angered by an apparent Shadow Service assasination of his pet cat, Riskles, he now seeks answers to what really happened on that fateful night.

I AM surprised by this election term, many SOLID candidates are running and there seems to be some very close races. The only nominees NOT facing an opponent for their position are Ghengis and Reddawg....
