I am willing to continue the game. However, perhaps we could ask the court to postpone the game until such a time we can fill these positions, as per the constitution? In the mean time, we should "advertise", as it were, in the other major CtP forum, CtP-Multiplaying, so we can bring back some of the supposed 50-odd members.

a little question.
What do you have to do for these posts.
Like Junoir Judge. What is that.
And what is the job of the Minister of Infastructure and Foreign Affairs. I don't see what infrastructure has to do with foreign affairs.
and also the jobs of other posts.
Maybe I'll participate.

OK, let's say I put my name down for something (or anyone else with absolutely minimal CtP experience), and, due to lack of competition, I "won". Then what? Would I be expected to make decent calls, to know what exactly to poll on and the options to make, any exploits/ clever tactics? Would anyone help me with this? Would the recriminations abound when I screwed up? What is the workload? Is this place full of absolutist Democrats or the Democrats who yell at you for making non-polled decisions?

I think you get the picture - I have plenty more questions where they came from if you like.

Forget about tactics. Give general options and if necessary specify in a later poll. I would be more than happy to aid you in anyway possible, and I am sure the same applies to the others. No one gives a crap if you screw up Workload is next to nothing the way we are at the moment.

I wouldnt worry about screwing up. The biggest problem will come from the most experienced players, if they ever show up, bickering about the course of action.

Workload? Depends. What position are you interested in? The president, when he plays the game, should ask his ministers what he feels needs addressed the most. They make a few polls and the citizens will debate it. Then the minister gives thier final orders. And the process starts again. Viola!

having been involved with about a gillion demogames already, i think MWIA knows how they work, just that this one in particular runs differently than any others i've seen, in that there's only about 5 people playing

all games are different so i think his questions are about the intricacies of this one specifically

Troll! We could use an experienced hand like you

There is an FAQ here( http://apolyton.net/forums/showthre...&threadid=73783), but I'll give you a brief run down:

We all work as a democracy, like in Real Life (US, UK, Canada etc.) with our own constitution. These postions are the Government positions.

The President physically plays the turn and moves the men etc. He takes "orders" from the Ministers (Defence, Infrastructure and Foreign Affairs, and Domestic Affairs). The Ministers may a) go by their judgement and advise the president or b) poll the people to see what they want.

After the president has recieved orders, he plays the turn. He can do whatever he wants, but may lose his reelection in one month if he doesn't listen to the people.

Troll, as we all control the same civilisation, we are all "Atlantians", citizens of the Atlantis civilisation.

At the moment, we are at war with Greece, and have recently met the Thai nation.

The next stage is to wait for Method/TKG/whatever he is calling himself (the overseer of these elections) to post the Election threads.

However, we really need a Minister of Domestic Affairs

Well, as Presidente'..I..ugh mean Mr.President, I would declare a state of national emergency, thus "incorporating" dual leadership positions and thusly moving forward onto our growth!
