Turn Chat Schedule

Thursday, 9 January - 0200 GMT (Wednesday 2100 EST)
Saturday, 11 January - 1500 GMT (Saturday 1000 EST)

***** Scheduling Change *****
Tuesday, 21 January - 2100 EST (Wednesday, 22-Jan 0200 GMT)
Saturday, 25 January - 1000 EST (Saturday, 25-Jan 1500 GMT)
Tuesday, 28 January - 2100 EST (Wednesday, 22-Jan 0200 GMT)

Note (25-Jan): There is no schedule for a chat next Saturday (1-Feb) at this time as that date will fall in the next term.

Note on Upcoming Turn Chats: Whenever possible, Preturn instructions, specifically updating build queues and city micromanagement issues, will be carried out shortly before the turn chat's scheduled starting time, so that the actual gameplay can begin promptly on time (at least, in theory).

Also, I don't necessarily expect the weekday chats (particularly the Monday Evening/Tuesday morning chats) to last very long. As these chats will be taking place only two days after the previous chat, it may not be possible to discuss/poll all issues to carry out a full 10-turn chat session. Nonetheless, I feel that with the advent of the Industrial era on our horizon, this schedule offers us more flexibility.

First Order of Business - Governmental Appointees
There are several positions that need filling. Edit: The Vice President has opened a thread on this subject. Please post your application there if you are interested in helping out.
  • Judge Advocate
  • Gov of North Province
  • Gov of Southwest Province
  • Gov of SDC (South Doughnut Coast)
  • Gov of Hafen Land
  • Gov of Unnamed Western Province that used to be unofficially referred to as "Sugar and Spice" or something lame like that... ;)
The gubernatorial positions represent a rather large portion of our Senate, and as we intend to be voting on some ammendments to our Constitution this term, I hope to fill these vacancies soon. All interested parties, please contact this office ASAP.

Second Order of Business - Having Fun
While this difficulty level may prevent us from pursuing some game actions and limit our options from one turn to the next, we still can find a way to have some fun. Rather than trying to divorce ourselves from the RPG or vice-versa, we need to look at ways to bring a little of the RPG back into the DG and similarly, bring a little of the DG back into the RPG.
 
Yes, after 5 consecutive terms of running for President, I now am serving my fourth term as Vice President. And, I must say, considering the title my office holds, there is ABSOULUTELY NOTHING I have to do. I just sit around until the President croaks or goes on vacation. Considering that, my agenda this term shall consist of trying to increase the responsibilites of the future holders of this prestigious office.

Also, fellow Fanatikans, watch this post for various Vice Presidential News (like there was any:rolleyes: )


I will first point out that another thread has been created for the specific purpose of finding nominees. This is the thread. Serve your country, and get into office! Newbies are encouraged to apply.

Congrats to 40J and Octavian :).

*Grand Admiral CivGeneral waits for 40J to fill Chieftess's Request of a Council Vote to confurm me as a Trade Deputy :)
 
Forty, I'd like to ask for a confirmation vote for CivGeneral as Trade Deputy.
 
You don't need the Pres for that, CT. Just do a poll "Confirm CivGeneral as Trade Deputy?" with Yes, No and Abstain options. Let it run for a minimum of 48 hours or until quorum is met.
 
Chieftess & CivGeneral
What he said. ;)

However, I will be looking to fill our various vacant positions sometime today, so be on the lookout for a series of council votes soon.
 
Welcome into office FortyJ. I hope your reign is a long and prosperous one, to be remembered by all.
Congrats, old friend :)

Congratulations to 40J and Octavian X for being elected to their perspective offices. This is an exciting time for Fanatika.

Mr. President, please review the "PLAN A" submitted in this thread and the posts following it. Is there anything you can do to help move this proposal forward?

I realize that you are not only against attacking America, but also against connecting the Saltpeter that will allow us to train Musketmen. But this plan can be effective in a universal manner as far as our target goes. It doesn't matter which target we choose, the plan will still help get our Nation online in terms of Military Production.

Please tell us what you can do to help move this plan forward. Thank you.

I have reviewed the plan as you requested and I find it full of merit. Considering that there appears to be some sentiment in favor of connecting this resource sooner rather than later ;), I suggest we formalize this plan of action and poll the citizenry on it.
 
An Informational Poll has been started HERE. This poll deals with "PLAN A" concerning Military production. Please vote. This poll will remain open for approximately 24 hours. Governors are encouraged to voice their opinions.
 
Congrats, Pres. FortyJ. If you don't know who I am, I am Lord Master Zarn. I am a very influencial being in this nation. I hope you rule justly and bring prosperity to the nation.
 
I remember you Zarn. Previous Domestic Leader and Grandmaster Jedi of the Jedi Council. Good to see you have you back noble warrior.

BTW, have you registered a city name yet....

Oops. A little blurring of the offices. :) Can't help myself sometimes...
 
attention governor/department leader.

If you need something rushed, or upgraded please post so in the budget thread located here . Check to see how much it costs then post the amount and the reason it needs to be rushed, or upgraded.

Thanks
 
(we're in the casino, no pigeon needed, but a copy is sent to Octavian X)

I recommomend postponing the next turn chat to fully discuss our defense and counter attack. Our cities need barracks now for the musket upgrades. The Indians hit us where it hurts - in the center, attempting to split us in two. We need a message here to address the Citizens of Fanatika.
 
Mr. President. I've read your closing comments for the t/c today, but I can't find a copy of the t/c chatlog on the file server. I need a better explanation of what happened at today's t/c. Before we lose any available windows of oportunity, can we re-post the chatlog and extrapolate on the situation a little more?

P.S. Please make any t/c chatlog a full one, not butchered to protect the chosen people, ty.
 
Well, it appears you people have buried the chatlog to cover your mistakes. That's a very evil thing to do. You must be high level politicians. Sorry I've interupted your very important day. Now I have to waste my time trying to figure out who to PI!
