any comments or suggestions are welcome. :)

Great work. As a resident of Philadelphia, I am behind my governor 100%. I can't wait to attend our new temple & help construct the marketplace!

I'm not sure if it is a written rule, but may I suggest keeping the first post up-to-date with the build intentions? It might keep the ease of finding it simple. Alternatively, it could also appear in the chat instructions. I am unaware of the current protocol.

Good Idea about posting in turn chat. i think I will do that. I am also glad that you are supporting my term as governor of this great province.

we have 12 citizen with an average age of 22

here is a citizen list:

Name City Mandate Function
Benjamin Miller New York
chiefpaco Philadelphia Junior Councilmember
Civanator Civanatoria Science Leader
dingclancy San Francisco
disorganizer San Francisco Head of Census Office, Chat-Operator

Padma New York
Plexus San Francisco Governor of "Ameri" Mayor of San Francisco
SKILORD Civanatoria Chat Operator

Thank you dis for posting this census information. I will post this on the site when I get home from school. :)

you can always download the excel-file for most up-to-date info and extract the information yourself (excel2000 format)

and here is the map.
maybe someone can do a more art-like drawing instead of a screenshot-map?

we should start naming our mountain-slopes, rivers, valeys, bays and oceans!

I will start on a map. If anyone wants to name a physical feature, PM me. I will start off by naming our Lake, 'Lake Plex'

This is a rough map, if anyone wants to do one better, I would like a provincial map maker.

Your work is astounding! Keep it up! Can I request Cathedrals too? We have the Sistene Chapel & a Cathedral in some large cities will make so many people content! Heck, we might even celebrate with Fireworks! :) [party]

I'll change the queue to include your reccomendations, Chiefpaco.

Plexus, you might need to synchronize your build queues between this thread & the chat instructions, or just post them in one place, maybe just here :)

i updated the citizen list. i will update it in the post, but i will not be able to regularly update it though. it would be better if you, plexus, could use the census-excel-file to get up-to-date data.

will do :)

*sigh* I miss the days when Civanatoria was the Capital. But those days are gone and i don't think you'll move the Capital. The glorious city named after me was the Capital, but its gone now.
Anyway I think we should name the mountains around Civanatoria:
"The Iron Mountains"

Nope, not moving the capital, sorry. And the Iron Mountians are officailly named.

Plese welcome our newest citizens, Padma, lithium30, and Lord Caspen, they are all citizens of New York and have been updated on the site census file.

All out citizens should vote for philadelphia as the place for the forbidden palace in the citizen vote!
This will make our glorious province even richer of culture!

I like the red map you made of Ameri. Can you make one that shows out whole country? We can't keep track of which province has which cities. We need a map!

Might take me a while, though.

plex,
could you contact crabapple (gov of normandy) to name the former american plain the "plain of doom" ? since this landmark crosses both provinces you should both comply to this name.
tnx.

sure

Governor Plexus,

In my capacity as acting domestic leader I am having our luxury rate reduced to zero in an effort to boost our revenues. I am sorry to say that this will have a temporary sad effect on your great city of Philadelphia. Please see to it that entertainers are hired in that city to keep the people from rioting. Phiadelphia's market will be complete next turn and the entertainer can then be sent back to the fields. I thank you for your cooperation in this matter and respectfully remind you to update your build queues and post them in the turn instructions thread. (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=22952)

Thank you,
donsig

Governor Plexus,

Would you take a look at the cities in your province, and see how many could start WLTK days with one worker as an entertainer? Especially if that worker is not working a very productive square. Test this with the current 10% luxury rate and with a 0% luxury rate.

Thanks,

Eyrei
Interim President

Note: This in no way is an attempt to trump Donsig's desire to move the luxury rate to zero. That is his decision to make, and I do not even think it is a bad one. I would like for this to be tested first, however. I had already posted in the Normandy thread when I read your post here, donsig. Sorry.

What do you think we should name it? You can name it HERE (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23200)

i got some other naming proposals for landmarks:
mountain range:
Cori Celesti

river:
Ankh
a city at the River: Ankh-Morpork (i would propose new-york)

others:
Great A'Tuin, Berilia, Tubul, Great T'Phon,Jerakeen

Well, the new name of San Francisco is Zon Phronzizko. Now all I have to do is get re-elected.

Dis, I think you should run for governor of Province #6... then you could Pratchett-ify it to your heart's content :D

elektikos: i have something else in mind... wait and see... ;-)

I'm scared.

Alrighty, people, lets vote for me! ;)

Donsig, our Domestic advisor, had some recommendations in this post:
Citizen discussion: Wonder building! (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23425&pagenumber=2)

What would you say to these build recommendations in Ameri? How do our goals match those of our nation?

plexus:
if you want to rename our capitol, you must post a citizen poll for it to comply with the constitution. you will not be allowed to rename it without a poll.

I will post a poll if i win. :)

ok. just wanted to remind you not to fall victim of a investigation

Thanx :)

Well, looks like I have been re-elected with 75% of the popular vote. I would also like to congradulate civanator and tell him thanx for being a great compeditor. Oh yea, I also got deputy of Foreign Affairs (again). :)

This is the words of the One for Plexus, gobernor of Ameri:
A wizard, a false prophet is among you this is the begining of the end if You don´t put attention to the words of the ONE:
"If a prophet, or one who foretells by dreams, appears among you and announces to you a miraculous sign or wonder, and if the sign or wonder of which he has spoken takes place, and he says, "Let us follow other gods" (gods you have not known) "and let us worship them," you must not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer. The One your Deity is testing you to find out whether you love him with all your heart and with all your soul. It is the One your Deity you must follow, and him you must revere. Keep his commands and obey him; serve him and hold fast to him. That prophet or dreamer must be put to death, because he preached rebellion against the One your Deity, who brought you out of the sin and redeemed you from the land of slavery; he has tried to turn you from the way the One your Deity commanded you to follow. You must purge the evil from among you."

chat representatives
could you please port the order for your chat representatives in this thread (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23795)?
