I vote for the truck full of peat ;)
 
Here are my three stars:

*Other than the Internet, there's really no reason to keep researching. If we choose not to have the Internet, then I'll advocate for an indefinite stopping of research.
*Since we're at war, trading will be of little use. Besides, we don't really need anymore luxuries.
*If you like my thread format, there's no better way to keep it other than keeping the same guy.

I ask for your vote. :)

Pete, what are your stars?

RegentMan,

You have gotten my vote hands down for quite some time. But now I must ask:

Why have you decided to bow to pressure and change your vote over the fate of Gordium? You have taken a clear refutation of shady practice and placed it right into the Culture Ministers lap! Imagine, a Culture Minister denying culture to his citizens.......

Until I get an adequate response, or you retract your option to switch votes in that poll I shall withhold my vote.

Donovan Zoi,

I have followed your posts throughout the day regarding how the DemoGame has turned into a GOTM style game. I must say that I agree with your thoughts.

However, this entire game has been played like a civ game and not a role-playing democracy. People have spent hours upon hours planning and trying to make this game's outcome a cultural victory. We could have achieved a domination victory long ago, but we decided for a cultural victory, and have spent a lot of time getting there. Think o

Note that I said:

Thus far it looks like culture is winning. If that's the case, then I ask for my vote in the Gordium poll to be changed from keeping its culture buildings to selling its culture buildings.
As long as culture is winning, I'll have my vote be "yes." However, if domination wins, I'll ask for my vote to be back to "no." I should have looked to the future and saw that I might be considered a flip-flopper in the DemoGame community now; I pray that I am not.

That was what I started typing. However, as I was in the second paragrah, I realized how hypocritical it was. My gut instinct was to not sell the buildings, and that's what I want. I'll post no more on this subject, and want my vote back to where it is. I'm sorry to all for my back-and-forthness, and hope that I just didn't commit political :suicide: .

How long have you been in office? ;)

If the people want to research, then we can research what the majority of the people want. I see we almost have the entire tech tree.

I too, think we don't need any more luxuries unless we really want them.

You the people get to choose who to run the R and T. :goodjob:
 
The only luxury that we don't have is probably furs. Having 7 of the 8 luxuries in the game is more than plentiful. Peace is hard to obtain so international trading won't be an option.

I am for new guys to try their hands on politics and making the game fun as possible.

Hence Truckingpete gets my vote! (p.s. to Truckingpete, get RegentMan as your deputy!)

That sounds good enough for me, RM. :)

I only hope that my endorsement here doesn't reverse your recent upsurge in the polls.
 
Vote RegentMan!!!!!!!!!

Thank you, truckingpete. It was a good race. The deputy chair is open to you, if you'd like to sit there.

And thanks to you, Fanatannia. I look forward to working for you for Term V. I appreciate all of the support in this thread, and pray that I don't fail you.

To the eight dissenters, on the other hand... :whipped: ;)

I voted for truckingpete just to get a new face. As you knew, I also suggested that if he won, you would be his deputy. So no whipping please! I wanted both of you anyway.
