If I do lose the Consular elections, I'd like a spot somewhere in the FAM. As I'm sure some PTW ISDG members can testify, I do have a good amount of diplomatic experience.

Beta · December 26, 2003, 22:31

I would like to put my name in the hat for two positions:

MOI and FAM.

Inverse Icarus · December 27, 2003, 20:21

/me dusts off his sword and throws his name in the hat for "Minister of Defense".

my first act in office will be to change that sissy ass title to something more supreme.

jordie · December 30, 2003, 05:05

Ok, I would like to apply for MOF, but can somone please clarify exactly what this includes:

From the Consitution:

Quote:

"The Minister of Information is responsible for the timely availability of game-related information to the People."

Is that like what's happening in the game world, and like maps and major events etc. ?

BigFurryMonster · December 30, 2003, 09:34

The Minister of Information is responsible to provide everyone with "basic info" about the game. This includes, but is not limited to:

Turn reports (a report of what happened during the turn);
Intelligence gathering (for example, report the F11 screen of the game);
Maps (screenshots of our position);
An overview of the teams in the game;
An overview of 'current state of affairs' about the team - for example, a list of government officials;

Information is vital in a Democracy Game, since the people need information to make decisions, and therefore, the Minister of Information has a big responsability.

Preferably, the Minister of Information receives the turn before and after the team (Consuls) play it, so he can analyze and post about it.

BFM, you seem like you know alot about the MOI position. Would you like to run?

BigFree · December 30, 2003, 15:55

I'd like to be considered for the Minister of Offense....err Defense, yeah, that's what I said.

Woops

I pressed edit instead of reply with qoute

jordie · December 30, 2003, 21:21

Ok, I'm still putting my hand up for Minister of Information, unless BFM officially does the same.

conmcb25 · December 31, 2003, 07:20

Put me down for a FAM slot.

Im currently running for counsel but would like to work in this ministry if it doesn't work out.

Even if it does work out I won't be a counsel forever, and after I serve (if I do) this is the ministry I would prefer to hang my hat in.

GodKing · December 31, 2003, 12:48

Put me down for Domestic Minister, er, um , whatever it is called. If I am elected / choosen, that will help to get me involved.

Just to let everyone know, my plate is full, so I won't be running for anything.

BUT, I'll help the MoIA as much as I can

If the MoIA wants you could always get a job in the department.

Paddy · January 4, 2004, 03:24

I present myself as available for the Ministry of Internal Affairs
(I take it that this is the Minister of the Interior in the Constitution)

Beta · January 4, 2004, 10:05

Just to set the record straight. I am not running for consul - despite the asterix next to my name above. And, I am also interested in the FAM job, as well as MoI.

So, we have only two people willing to run as a Consul? Hmm...maybe I will give it a go for the first term. Sign me up NM.

Tassadar500 · January 4, 2004, 21:01

Sorry for the confusion Beta

The people running for Consul are: Conmcb2, OctavianX, Kloreep, and Togas. BigFree are you still interested in running? I want the elections up tonight.

BigFree · January 5, 2004, 01:43

Thanks NM for clearing that up. I was only going to run if there was an empty spot. I wanted to make sure this game gets off the ground. I'm glad there's more than 3 running.

BTW, all the candidates a good ones.

jordie · January 7, 2004, 05:03

So VERY sorry, but i regretfully have to pull out for the running of Minister of Information. I really wanted to do this. I thought I would have more time to participate, but now that is not too certain. So i didn't want to try and squeeze it in as i may let down the team if I can't end up doing it. Sorry all. I still wish to remain as a part of the team, just not as a full-time ministerial role.

Cheers.

MrWhereItsAt · January 7, 2004, 07:45

So how long will these positions last? Will there be periodic elections, or do you just retire when no longer able/interested?

There was some discussion earlier about rotating the Ministers similar to rotating the counsels. If that is something we want to do then we need to discuss it probably in another thread.

Togas · January 9, 2004, 02:47

Now that the Consuls have been selected, let's get the rest of the team in place.

--Togas

Tassadar500 · January 9, 2004, 11:55

Will someone please run for Minister of Information?

Kloreep · January 9, 2004, 17:52

What the heck, I'll run. I can't promise any analysis of scores or demographics but I'll do my best to keep the team informed.
