Nomination Thread - September Elections

-Jrabbit · August 19, 2002, 08:55

Let's move forward!! Please post your intent to run for office in September. Our beloved VP will handle the actual election polls as is his duty.

I'll run for Foreign Minister again -- cuz it's so easy at the beginning.

ixnay · August 19, 2002, 13:25

I will run for president.

H Tower · August 19, 2002, 14:14

i would like to be science minister again

mrboo123 · August 19, 2002, 14:56

I will not run for anything (because I'll get by ass kick)

Nah, I'll vote for you as a minister.

Like I said in the other thread, it's better to serve a couple of terms as minister before going for president

shade · August 19, 2002, 17:53

I will...be running away from those angry warriors whos spears I stole.

(<--- angry warrior's)

: (<-- me )

... and a little later

(I don't think I can do a minister job from this place,can I?)

I think with experience as 3 time foreign minister in the 1st game that I am the right man to lead our nation out of the shyte we seem to be stuck in.

I would make use of the great knowledge of our famously brilliant ministers in making the correct choices for our nation to move forward.

Darkness' Edge · August 20, 2002, 04:44

Firstly I'd like to see what atawa's plans are, as I won't challenge him if he decides to nominate, but I'm interested in taking up the job of City Planner.

Jrabbit - perhaps you could start compiling a list of nominations?

-Jrabbit · August 20, 2002, 08:59

You missed my self-nomination for president. It should be an interesting race, running against Hydey.

I thought I was expansion minister

Darkness' Edge · August 21, 2002, 00:07

ooops
sorry
ixnay has that job

as ixnay is running for president, i hereby nominate for city planner...

Hydey · August 21, 2002, 06:10

so what other jobs do we need filled?

Darkness' Edge · August 21, 2002, 06:48

i'll go look...it's been so long, i've forgotten

Vice President (incumbent, me, vacating for City Planner)
Minister of War (incumbent MWIA, haven't heard from him)
Imperial Expansion (incumbent atawa, hasn't announced a candidacy)
Historian (incumbent civman2000, not running for office this time)

also note that science/trade is the same portfolio in this game...

civman2000 · August 21, 2002, 07:33

hmmm, I forgot that I was historian

...I do not plan on running again

-Jrabbit · August 21, 2002, 08:43

Sorry about the omission, ixnay. Now fixed.

Civman -- Your gig looks pretty easy for this month. You could retain your title, do nothing, and no one would notice! (Take it from me -- I know!

)

atawa · August 21, 2002, 13:06

I'll run for a second term as Minister of Imperial Expansion.

you could always be the historian, all you have to do is write down the history of apolyton as i tell it to you, with of course, you extolling many of my virtues(it would take forever to write about all of them)

cavebear · August 23, 2002, 19:48

I hereby announce for the position of Minister of War.

I promise to do the following things:

1. Harrass the President for more (and better) military units
2. Push to seek out the other civs and find their weaknesses
3. Post our units on commanding and strategic terrain
4. Think strategically and act tactically
5. Post not only regularly, but of topics that matter

i thought you weren't going to actively participate in this game, CB. guess that impeachment preceding rekindled your interest

H Tower · August 24, 2002, 02:47

Well, as of right now, i'm uncontested for science/trade minister, but i'll campaign anyways

In the role of science minister I want to continue our country to finish researching Monarchy , then mapmaking so we can continue colonization of the world, and after that i want to pick up writing, currency and trade so that we may begin building caravans and diplomats to interact with the other countries we come across. I promise to provide detailed explanations of technologies available to research so that people may make well informed decisions. As trade minister, i'll continue to moniter the tax rate so that we may optomize our trade arrows and i will push to build caravans once we are able to build them.
