another question:
Are we restricted to voting in schools that we are members of?

No we haven't decided on that yet. I propose that the term lengths be similar to the C3DG where it was once a month that the government changed hands (or didn't...).
I think it would be easier to go by real life days or months, rather than game turns. I could see that as getting confusing after awhile. |
I agree that a month based system would work better than a turn based system.
The question is, when will the first term end? I would say that it would be better to have it end on, say, January 15, than to have it end on January 1st, obviously avoiding complications due to New Years. And then continue changes (or not) every month on th 15th after that.
Thoughts?
Of course, a month=probably 6 turns (5 teams/30 days). Ugh, slow moving, eh? Not a long game-wise term.
edit: I will start a thread on procedures, to avoid spamming this thread.

Although I certainly had no intention of running for an office, if there is really know one interested I would be willing to be organizational head of the economic schola. I have no desire to “run the show” but I can compile ideas and organize orders, etc. I, like Sir Ralph, also have RL issues that come up (and unfortunately the first week of the game is likely to be one of these; hopefully things will be simple enough at that point that it won’t be to much of an issue). From what I’ve read there are more qualified people on this team for this position than myself, and I would encourage them to stand up, but if they are taking on a firm “no minister” stance than I would be willing to take to chair of the economic committee (I do have a B.A. in economics ).
P.S. I just had a worrying thought that this post might discourage others from running for this office; please don’t let this stop anyone who would like this position. |
So does this mean add you to the list? 
To comment on something, the ministers really don't necessarily run the show, that's not the intent of ministers, the ministers mostly 'keep the show going'. The SCHOLA's run the show technically, or they SHOULD, but they do this by all discussing ideas/orders and etc and submitting them to the CHIEF who takes those ideas and puts them into effect. Even if faced with ideas that go against each other, by being CHIEF you basically get to decide what orders to submit or not. Kind of like a Staff Editor for a newspaper, it's up to you how the story comes out.....make sense?

Yes, this is what I was attempting (apparently unsuccessfully) to present as not only how I feel a minister should act, but as the only "minister paradigm" I would be willing to act under. The reason I felt the need to say this is form observation of the SP-CIV3DG ministers, which in many cases (but certainly not all) seemed to listen to comments and respond to poles, but formulate actual policy autonomously.
DeepO: If reluctance is a sign of a (possible) leader than you fit the profile even better then me . In fact if this is the case than this team is overflowing with leadership abilities (BTW I know what you're saying).
Add me to the list? If you want, if anyone else wants the position (or is concerned enough with me having it to sign up ) I'll withdrawal.
edit: BTW well said Meshelic
