Hello everyone,

Due to work (a customer with tight Internet security restrictions in place) and family needs, I am unable to check the forums very often.

I have not seen the latest turn from xeno yet. Hopefully, he will be back soon. If you ever need to check with me on turn status, you can contact me directly at: Qantaga@aol.com

knowhow2 · November 5, 2002, 19:12

The word on the street is that xeno's gone.......

Replacement?

straz · November 6, 2002, 22:11

Yep, to whom shall I send the turn?

Hi all I've taken over from Xeno in this game. My address is cathal.mullaghan@ntlworld.com I am looking forward to joining the game.

Qantaga · November 13, 2002, 00:02

Welcome aboard Hercules.

I don't know if you have the turn yet, but straz can send you the latest turn and Tau Ceti has the password.

Thanks for taking over so we can continue the game.

You will be sending the turns on to me. My e-mail is: Qantaga@aol.com

Apologies, I welcomed Herc to the game and then promptly sent the turn to the wrong address. Corrected now.

turn to straz

I have just received the turn from straz. Note Planetary Council has been called by KnowHow2. (Shouldn't Knowhow2 have posted this?). Anyhow these are the candidates: Straz and Qantaga

Straz has 78 votes
Qantaga has 152 Votes
KnowHow has 70 votes
Hercules has 55 votes
Yang is out of it
Santiago has abstained
Morgan has abstained

Knowhow2 has voted 70 for Qantaga
Unless Qantaga in an extraordinary gesture, votes for Straz, the Governor elected is Qantaga

Please advise before I pass the turn. Shall I just cast a vote and send it on?

knowhow2 · December 2, 2002, 07:22

damn, I know I forget something. sorry bout that

Qantaga · December 2, 2002, 22:00

Obviously, it's easy for me to say, since I will benefit from the vote, but it doesn't look like notification would have changed the outcome. I would guess that it should be okay for Hercules to vote and continue the game.

Of course, you can contact Tau Ceti for his opinion, if you desire.

straz · December 3, 2002, 10:09

As I am the one to lose out on this vote, I would normally want to follow-up on the rules. As it is though, KnowHow is the one who called the vote and I got it next after he had already voted against me. I see a few scenarios here under which the non-notification would only apply to one:

1) Quantaga convinced Knowhow to call the vote

2) Knowhow called the vote to hinder the current top faction (i.e. me) and balance out the game

3) Knowhow mistakenly thought he was going to be a candidate and called the vote, then voted against me either because:
a) see #2
b) he just felt like it

Only under scenario 3B would notification and any subsequent negotiations have possibly affected the outcome. As he called the vote, he could of course have initiated said negotiations anyways but chose not to.

So really the only question now on my mind is whether or not Knowhow and/or Qantaga have decided to go after me. I'm afraid a procedural check won't help that.

knowhow2 · December 3, 2002, 19:17

I have to say that it was #3 - and I voted without really thinking about it.

But if its any counsolation I would have done it the exact same way if I had to do again.

Qantaga · December 3, 2002, 22:41

As knowhow2 has stated, the election came as a complete surprise to the Peacekeepers. While we are very grateful to the Gaian people for their vote, there was no collusion involved and certainly this does not imply any hostile intentions toward the University.

I am pleased to have the consensus of the people of Planet to retain the Governor's office and I wish you all peace and prosperity during my term.

2202 to knowhow2.

straz · December 4, 2002, 00:08

I wouldn't call that a consensus by any means...

Best wishes though!

straz · December 4, 2002, 22:42

Apologies for all previous comments on the election and various diplomatic gaffes. I seem to have been under the delusion that the Univ had the governorship and not the worthy PKs...
