Well, I think I will run for *some*office this time, I just haven't decided which one. It is good to be President, but Minister of War sounds interesting, too. I really enjoyed wiping out the competing civs in Demo Game #1.

Still, I am loyal to my Demo Game and may choose to serve in any position not sought by others. I'll see what develops tomorrow.

If you're waiting for a report, I'll get it sent off today I didn't know we were on deadline for this.

And, to stay on topic: since I'm on vacation in August, I think I will refrain from running next month.

Though I know he said he was unable to run in for July, I nominate Atawa for President in August.

Though I am pleased with the job of King Shade , I would like to see a different King/President every month , and I have it on good authority that Atawa, who has apparently been around demo games for quite a while, has never been President .

It would be nice to see some new citizens step up and try their hand at running some part of the government. I would be highly disposed to supporting new candidates for Ministers.

He's not the only one.

I don't think I'll have the ability to run for a position until I go back to school in September with my good civ cd.

I'll still be an active citizen, so whoever becomes the new cityplanner won't have much slack.

Given that no one else seems interested in the position next term, I will stand for election as Minister of War.

My fellow citizens, as it is summer and about half my colleagues are either on sickleave or holiday I have to work 45-50 hours a week.

So unless its an easy job I wont have time to run for anything again this month

It is understood that some Citizens are not available to serve as Ministers in the next term. Real Life intrudes, some of us are away from our computers, we have different schedules for the Summer, etc.

But surely there are some among us who *are* available to serve, even if they have not previously or are unsure of the requirements.

Every person who was ever a Minister did it for the first time once, not knowing if they were up to the task. I assure you, it is not fatal. You will survive the attempt and you will be pleased you did it.

We are a team. We help each other. What you are uncertain of, someone else has already done. Ask and you will be enlightened.

Though I have enjoyed the past Month as Science Minister, I am unavailable for a good portion of the Month of August (holidays ) and as a result am unable to give the time committment required. I do intend to run again in September for a position, and will actively be participating as a citizen in August.

* Sparrowhawk Science Minister


Edit: Being a minister has more benefits then negatives , and is a fun and refreshing way to look at the game of Civ , so I encourage all, even those new to the Forums, or new to Democracy games, to put their names up for election. No need to necessarily put your name up for President right away, Science or Foreign Minister seem like a good place to "get your feet wet" so to speak. Get involved people!

Well, I'll have some time off between semesters, but towards the end of the month I will be starting up again. So I guess you can put me in as a candidate for the Office of City Planner till then.

I think our past polls and the President's discretion can handle that.
