Reasons for changes:

We need infrastructure so we can prepare for the next war!!!

Micromanagement:

Bremershaven: Please move two laborers from the irrigated plains to the forest tiles to incread shield produciton.

Eklektochtitlan: Please hire an entertainer from the irrigated desert tile and move the laborer from the hills to the flood plain in order to reactivate WLTKD.

Izibia: Please move the laborer from the forest to the grassland.

Pensacola: Please move the laborers from the forest tiles to irrigated plains tiles so that Pensacola can grow.

Our goal is to be the best province in Fanatika! The Southwest Province accounts for roughly 20% of the country's production and about a third of the gold that enters the treasury. My personal goal is to improve on these figures while the province also supplies its fair share of Fanatika's military might.

I'm not sure who our mayors are! Please show yourselves so I can add you in to the first post of this thread. I would be eternally grateful for mayors to supply suggestion for bth build queues and micromanagement of thier cities. As always our queues should reflect the will of our citizens and citizens are encouraged to post any suggestions here.

My appointment was confirmed less than twelve hours before the upcoming turn chat so I had no time to go to the citizens for input on the build queues. I hope to be at tonight's chat and will check this thread for suggestions.

I would like to thank FortyJ for nominating me and breaking thecouncil vote tie in favor of my confirmation. I would also like to thank those who voted for me in the council vote.

Donsig, Dapperdan is in the North Provance :).

Congratulations on getting the Governorship of the SWP, donsig. I know you will take good care of it. Maybe now we can stop mining around the road from Eklektochtitlan to Bremershaven and get some irrigation in. Good Luck!

The irrigation project from Eklektochtitlan to Bremershaven will continue so that those cities affected by the plains will be able to grow to their full potential.

Congratulations from the former Governor of the SW Province! :goodjob:

At this time, the only mayor in the province is Civanator(Civanatoria, of course).

BCLG100 and TNG have expressed interest in becoming a mayor.

I myself would like to be considered for mayor of Tlaxcala, as I didn't find it appropriate or necessary to appoint myself to the position last term.

40J, if I'm not mistaken, last time I looked at the save, there was a worker building a mine outside of Tlaxcala. I'll go look again.

Nothing new in the queues except for more units in Bremershaven and and a market in Eklektochtitlan. The are added as the current queues for those cities will run out during the next chat.

Our province grew from 39 to 42 citizens, a 7.7% increase. Happy citizens increased by 5 or 17.2% while unhappy citizens decreased by 50%!

Happy citizens are productive citizens. Our net shield production went from 42 spt to 48 spt, a 14.3% jump.

We have new temples in Cuernavaca and Eklektochtitlan and a new univeristy in Bremershaven. Our cities contribute 35gpt to the treasurty. This is offset by expenses of 19gpt for our cities' buildings leaving a net of 16gpt into the national treasury. Our new temple in Eklektochtitlan was rushed thanks to the approval of Fionn, our domestic advisor. The cost was 128g which represents 8 turns of our province's net proceeds to the treasury. No requests for rushes are currently being made by our province, though in the future we may ask to spend some gold on an aqueduct for New Falcon's Nest since that city cannot grow without one. Cuernavaca will grow once more thanks to the national irrigation project.

Citizen's input on the build queues is always welcomed.

Excellent thread, donsig.

I happily announce the appointment of two new mayors in the Southwest Province:

Donovan Zoi is now the mayor of our provincial capital, Tlaxcala

and

General Falcon02 has consented to become mayor of New Falcon's Nest.

It is particularly exciting that the military leader and his deputy have strong ties to our province.

They join our only incumbent mayor, Civanator, who is mayor of Civanatoria.

Bremershaven, Cuernavaca, Eklektochtitlan, Nocsfiedera and Pensacola still need mayors. Please pm me if interested.

Please place a link to the Term 4 thread in the first post of this thread.

As the new Mayor of New Falcon's Nest, I suggest we alternate the build between Knight and Musket, instead of building strickly muskets. I also suggest retasking a worker.

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads3/NFN_Before.jpg

This is how it is now

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads3/NFN_After.jpg

If we move that one worker to the one Furs Forest tile, we will increase the spt and we won't waste food on a city which needs an aqueduct to grow. As you can see we can shread 2 turns off the Knight, which should be useful.

An excellent suggestion Mr. Mayor! I have adjusted the build queues and asked that the furs tile be worked. Thank you!

I would like to appoint SKILORD as our Deputy Governor. I think I have to post a poll to have SKILORD confirmed. Unless there is an unexpected clamor against SKILORD's appointment I will post the approval poll tomorrow.

RE: WAR WITH INDIA

We must halt any production of improvements in your province. Concentrate on building military units only. All gold is for Military and Foreign Affairs, please do not request to rush any improvements until this war is over.

Thanks

Our population grew 9.5%. Happiness edged up slightly though unhappiness is at an all time high in the Southwest Province due to our crowded cities. :(

Our good shields per turn rose 10.4% to 53spt. Our treasury submissions (before city expenses) jumped 20% to 42gpt. Our province continues to become more efficient as both these increases out-stripped our population increase. :)

We have a new market in Pensacola. That brings our city expenses to 20gpt. Our net to the treasury is now 22gpt, a 37.5% increase.

I am sure our citizens will join me in our switch to military production to meet the Indian invasion.

Governor donsig,

Please look over and respond to my plan for our military response to India's agression. It needs some ironing out so please join the discussion.

Our population grew slightly while unhappiness decreased despite the war. Our slowed growth was due mainly to the war effort as we focused more on shield production at the expense of food producion. Our commerce also decreased slightly due to the shift towards shield production. Our net input to the treasury was also reduced due increased corruption in the form of a Black Market.

SKILORD rec'd overwhelming support and is now officially our Deputy Governor!

Congratulations SKILORD! :goodjob:

Governor donsig. It's good to see Bremershaven will soon be a size 10 and that Tlaxcala is growing again.

Despite the short time from the last summary our population has grown. Even better news is the fact that the citizens of the Southwest Province are happier![dance] [party] Our shield production dipped slightly but our gpt increased a bit. Nocsfiedera has a new barracks.

Here's a task for you SKILORD: We have only three mayors, but eight cities. I'm putting you in charge of recruiting us some more mayors and ensuring that they open threads for their cities.

One more thing: Would you check the census or the citizen reigistry and see how many citizens live in our fine province?

gimme a bit, i just got back from a weekend retreat thing where i got an average of 5hrs of sleep a night.

This may be fine for some, but i need to catch up.

Proposed build queues are in the second post of this thread. Citizen input is wanted and needed. I've suspended military recuitment in our major cities for a short time (6 turns) in order for a market and three aqueducts to be built in that time. Our national treasury has been depleted and our cities must be allowed to grow in order that our revenues will increase so that we can upgrade our military. By turn seven, five of our eight cities will return to full military production.

I have also formally requested a public investigation of our Vice-President and Military Leader (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=724118#post724118) for unlawfully changing the Southwest Province's build queues. Citizen comments are welcomed on this very important issue.

Falcon02 - New Falcon's Nest
Shabbaman - Bremenshaven
Donovan Zoi - Tlaxcala (Remember, I owe him some cash)
Sinage - New Falcon's Nest

I do suggest though that we could boost population hugely by changing Tlaxaca's name to N/A, because it seems that damn near every registered citizen wanted to live there.

Hey donsig, what does a Mayor do, exactly, and could i get one of those jobs while simultaniously being asst. gov?

The governers are revolting! All right!

This war has been a fizzle, so far, thanks to adroit movements by our military and even more adroit movements by the Foreign Office. The Indians are folding and the Babs are going to put all their efforts into fighting Russia. We need to get out of emergency mode and switch to building up our infrastructure.

The job is what you make it! Generally, speaking, mayors start a thread about their city. Screenshots would be nice. They can build up the city so to speak through roleplaying. I'd also like to see mayors who will also keep an eye on their city and suggest build queues and micromanagement for thier city.

Yes, you can be a mayor and hold any other office. I'm actually mayor of Palanthus though I've been spending my time in Tlaxcala doing governor stuff. :)

I'll move to Pesacola and Mayor there, I'll open a summer home there, in addition to my cheif residence in Valhalla.

The captured city of Izibia has been added to the Southwest Province. Not since the ancient Aztecs have we had foreigners residing in this province!

Just a dumb question but when did we start adding cities to provinces without asking the domestic department first. Also id like to see ducts, markets and a bank in your highest productive city

When we defined the Southwest province. :rolleyes:

Here is a map of the Southwest Province. (http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads3/fanatika-1000ad-04-lg.jpg) It clearly shows Izibia within the borders of this province. This is an example of something working the way we meant it to work. We defined the province ahead of time so that when foreign cities became our property we would know who the governor was.

Any more dumb questions?

Bremershaven already has an aqueduct. I'd like to see all these improvements there myself but someone has to build the military units we need to keep us from getting pounded by other countries.

Yeah!

I have suggested that we reduce the garrisons of Civanatoria, New Falcon's Nest and Pensacola to one unit each. This will free up three units that could be upgraded and used to start building our Eastern Wall.

I have decided to run for President which means I cannot run for re-election as governor of this fine province. :( I will miss this job but I do long for my home in Palanthus. I have nominated our Deputy Governor for the governorship and General Falcon himself has expressed interest in it. I am sure either would make a fine governor.

I have made my suggestions for the next build queues in the second post of this thread. I do hope the new governor will take a look at them. :)

Governor donsig,

On your last day in office, please consider the following suggestions for tomorrow's chat:

Tlaxcala
Immediately switch from rifle to Marketplace(3 turns); then continue with riflemen.

Cuernavaca
switch laborer from roaded plains to forest to get granary in 2 turns.

But my bags are already packed and I'm anxious to get back to Palanthus! The new governor should sure be posting instructions for Saturday's chat!?!
