Dat is voor sommigen misschien mogelijk, maar ik vrees dat het overgrote deel dan totaal geen clou zal hebben waar we mee bezig zijn

On topic

Since real life is showing it's ugly head again...you all will be saved of my monstrous poll's ... I'll be a "silent citizen" voting and arguing why we should impeach our government

I personally nominate Hydey to be our next minister of War...I think he will do a fine job.

I'll toss my Aussie style snap-brim camo-style hat into the ring. I have a burning desire to lead the glorious Chosen Ones to ruthless and glorious conquest, to explore and pillage all the recources available, and to make our cities centers of military prowess and weaponry.

I seek the office of President. And I welcome many other contestants for that position! Let's have a good contested election with several people going for the job.

Give the Citizens a lot of choices! These 1 or 2 candidate elections are boring.

Announce, announce, announce!

Hmm, lets try something new... I nominate War4Ever to be our Minister of War, H Tower to be our City-Planner, and Gramphos as our Foreign Minister.

No reason why we shouldn't demand the best!

While we have usually depended on self-nominations, is there any reason why we can't ask for those who seem best qualified for any specific time of the game?

yes, but if there don't want to do it, we shouldn't force them.

I suppose you could nominate anyone you want, usually that person should accept the nomination, otherwise they may get elected, but be on holiday for the whole month and never be around.

Perhaps we should hurry this along if the president is unable to play any turns.

Thank you

hydey can have the minister of war position this time around...thanks for the vote of confidence Cavebear.....!

i will wait till it gets a bit more exciting....after all, building warriors in all your cities doesn't require much skill

I nominate John for city planner.

It's a lot more then building warriors and I trust he'll do a good job at it.

(Even though he forgot to put the position into the nomination thread )

when do the nominations end and the elections held?

Incoming ministers should make sure they are ready to go straight away, we need to get this thing moving.

OK, but you better show what you can do in the early game, or people aren't going to be too confident in you when things get complicated! Deciding how to place limited numbers of military units for maximum defense and attack isn't exactly formulaic.

Maybe you'll join us next month's elections... We should be well into medieval times then.

But I see Hydey is running for MiniWar and (if I am elected President), I will be very pleased to have his excellent advice!

C'mon folks, can we *please* have more than one candidate per position? Be brave, take on the challenge! It's not *that* hard and it is good to have fresh thinking in this game...

Thanks for this thread, john.

cavebear is right - it is an easy (and fun!) job, especially at this point of the game. You get to know the other DGers and Apolytoners quite well also. And if you're interested at all in improving your own game skills, there's no faster way then doing it yourself after listening to the experts!

I would consider running, but it would be a bit of a conflict of interest if I did.
