Can I be vice-president

civman2000 · June 9, 2002, 22:39

I would go for vp, but I have very similar view as those of space05us and don't want to draw votes away from him, so i'll go for science advisor. I'll be in Utah from june 28-july 10 so my deputy will have to take over during that time though...

MrWhereItsAt · June 9, 2002, 23:15

Let's keep things simple, else we'll take forever on all our first decisions. As for Ministers, we don't need any more than the ones specified in the poll that has been put up. Air Force, Navy etc Ministers? Maybe we will need them if the Minister of War is getting overworked, but surely that can wait until we are actually at the point.

Am I the only one who doesn't want things overly complex??????!!?!?

Jon Shafer · June 9, 2002, 23:28

Agreed. For now let's keep things simple. If the need arises for more ministers, then the current ministers can vote on it and a new office can be created.

Adc · June 9, 2002, 23:40

Edited: I will be travelling for part of this term so I am dropping my candidacy for all positions (for now at least...)

civman2000 · June 9, 2002, 23:48

MWIA: I agree. The only position I think should be added is public works, because workers are so important in civ3 vs in civ2...

Chandragupta · June 10, 2002, 01:08

My god that's a lot of posts... I know I'm new at this but still! At any rate, I'll run for Minister of Imperial Expansion if it still exists in the final list of official ministerial (that a word?) positions.

Oh, I'd also like to run for City Planner and Science advisor, if one can run for several offices.

Of course you can, there are no rules.

I would also like to announce my intention to run as Minster of Imperial Expansion.

I feel I would be ideal for this position as I am an avid Civ 3 player and take great pride in my city placement ability

.

I value proper city placement for long-term expansion, but do not follow this line of thinking as rigidly as some do. I understand the importance of balancing short term needs with long term benfits.

Vote for Timeline, and put our nation in line for building cities that stand the test of time

.

Space05us · June 10, 2002, 01:41

MrWIA I think you should go for Military advisor!

Jon Shafer · June 10, 2002, 01:47

I think a party member in office is always good

. MWIA has also been quite instrumental in helping to set things up and give us a baseline, I would like to see him in some kind of minister position.

If we have a Financial minister he'll be in charge. If not we'll have to fine someone to trust that he is not giving more to some pepole...

hello my fellow Democrats,

Assuming with the new beta patch now released for mac, I can read the saved files, and assuming there is still room in the citizenry - I would love to join.

If I have assumed wrongly, please let me know (and why etc. - the techy side of this is not my strongpoint). As a mac user I can only hope that my flouncy artistic input in the cultural advancement of whichever civ we choose to be, can aid in the utter destruction of our enemies. (just completed my first regent game as the Persians, and running out of time to get into space, I won by icing the opposition wit' my ICBM's - still feel a bit filthy)

Questions:
Is there a regular time to clock in for each instalment of this lengthy fiasco?
If there isn't compatibility between mac and pc, what the --- can I do about it?
Why, (in the game I mentioned above) did my automated workers keep returning to my capital and dieing - was this a hunger strike due to my barbaric military tactics?
Also, why did a great leader I got get shot by one of my infantrymen when he tried to enter the city? - not the welcome home I was expecting!

Answers to any of the above would keep my forces safely within my borders

when do we vote on these?

I set up a poll asking that.

Cyclotron · June 10, 2002, 14:28

Please note:

Unfortunately, some surprise schedule anomolies will prevent me from being close to a computer for the next two weeks or so. Thus, if it is decided that the game will start in the next two weeks, I feel I must retract my candidacy for Minister of Trade. Good luck to... er, whoever wants it.
