Slow down boy, you should wait for it to be confirmed...

Nevermind, you shouldn't. Nevermind. jk. nm.

So I assume that means you want to be part of the SMAC Demo game?

Emvepe · August 4, 2002, 02:33

DIE!!!!!!! I mean yes...

Mr. President · August 4, 2002, 03:24

I'd like to join.

Archaic · August 4, 2002, 03:51

Count me in as well.

Pandemoniak · August 4, 2002, 05:34

Should a military advisor be a mad gunman ?? I dont think so... elections are not planned yet, but we can still go fro the democracy game...

Main_Brain · August 4, 2002, 07:33

Wojit · August 4, 2002, 09:02

I would like to join

Of course, it's worth mentioning that I lost interest in the Civ 3 democracy game quite quickly.... Though I prefer SMAC to Civ 3...

MarkG · August 4, 2002, 09:10

from the civ3 game

Quote:

What is a Democracy game?

In the Democracy Game (DG), the whole community plays the same game, and the same Civ. Many people decide commonly what we should do next. Nobody has the same absolute power as a player has when playing Civ3 alone.
This is called "Democracy" game because we all participate, and we all give input on how we want the game to be played. For example, nobody has the power to declare war to America, it needs a vote. If a majority of citizens want war with America, than war is declared.

Technically, this is a single player game. Only one player gets to play the game physically : the President (elected every month). Everyone can access his save. Nobody can "play ahead" on this save, meaning acting before the president actually does it on his own computer.
But the President has to obey the ministers (also elected every month) who give precise orders each turn. Each minister is specialized in a specific field : war, science, economy, workers, city planning, diplomacy.
The ministers often consult the people via polls on what policy they should promote. When they poll the people, ministers have to follow the poll, or risk losing all credibility.
The people can also express their views whenever they want. We are currently following a strategy thouroughly reflected by a normal citizen.

A DG is a game, and thus it has rules. These rules are called the "constitution". The constitution can be mdified by a 2/3 vote whenever an amendment is felt needed. To enforce these rules and punish cheaters, we are making up a judicial system.

In a Democracy,you can't hinder people who think the same to unite. That's why we have parties : the Democratic Industrialists of Apolyton (DIA) and the United Front Coalition (UFC). DIA is more oriented towards builder strategies, and UFC is more oriented towards warmongering, but both parties are pretty moderate. We have no longlasting third party.

If you want to participate, just vote in polls and express your views in the forum whenever you think it's good. Also, you can officially join the DG by saying "I want to join" in this thread. It's never too late to join !

DeathByTheSword · August 4, 2002, 09:52
