Alright, something to break up the monotony. This poll is just to collect your preferences. There is no discussion thread as we're only looking for your gut reaction. What part of the Demogame keeps you involved? What sparks that urge to come back? Listed below are 9 options, Other, and Abstain. A lengthy list of options, I know, but I wanted to cover as much ground as I could.

This is a Multiple choice poll, but I'm asking that you only select two of the options. That 2, dos, zwie? Hold up your thumb and your middle finger, that's two. :) Sometimes just choosing one option doesn't cover it. You CAN only vote for one if you'd like.

This poll will stay open for 7 days. That's 1 week beyond the date and time in the upper left-hand corner of this post. :thumbsup:

BTW, this is a Public Poll. ;)

The options are:

Debating Policy - Discussing the plans we put forth for our government to follow. These can be long range or ethical strategies, it's not real specific.

Debating Current Moves - Discussing what's happening NOW. You're not really interested in long range planning, but you really want to direct the path of that ship or choose which mountain range the explorer goes. That kind of thing.

Debating the ruleset - You're the type of person who cares about the structure of the Demogame and/or the legalities of our government. You find you want to contribute in this area.

Setting Build Queues - Determining the production of our cities is key to you. The position of Governor was designed with you in mind.

Planning an Attack - Production? Nah. Directives? Get real. Take out the neighbor? Now you're talking... You feel that Military aggressiveness is your department. Let's put Horsemen in the Mountains and Archers in the tall grass. ATTACK!!!!

Voting on Policy - Doing your civic duty in voting for Policy decisions is always something you strive to perfect. Attention to detail, seeing the big picture.

Voting on the Ruleset - Doing your civic duty in voting on the ruleset is always something you strive to perfect. Attention to detail, seeing the big picture.

Running for Office - The thrill for you is running for the Office of your choice. Election Days prime your pump.

Holding Office - Serving as an elected official for the people of the nation is the honor you seek. Helping to determine our path in a responsible manner by way of your Office is key to your involvement.

Other - Please state what does it for you.

Abstain - What? You mean I'm supposed to LIKE this stuff? :p

What??!! Only that many? Sheesh! Where's the "all of the above" option, you bozo?

:sad: Sorry people, I probably would have voted all of the above too.
 
Since there's no "voting for abstain" option, I voted abstain as well with most of the other options :)
 
Ah, good! Now Blackheart and mhcarver can wear the bozo shoes!

I think that describes my favorite part :evil:.

Which Steve Martin dance? Steve Martin with Queen Latifah? Steve Martin the Swinging Brother from Czechoslovakia and Wild and Crazy Guy? Or Steve Martin trying (and failing) to keep time on Mama's porch?

I'm guessing the middle one............ :lol:

OK, gotta run...........Foxes! :banana: :banana:
 
Organizing chaos to make the gameworld understandable in real world terms for enabling the game to become a more realist DG. This means Army organization, a finance minister and so on. An end to gamey setup based on the arbitrary advisor screen setup.
 
I voted before reading all the instructions. When it said we want your gut reaction I went up and voted. Then I saw you only wanted 2 options. Subtract 1 from Voting on Policy and Holding Office.

I just realized I did the same thing! :lol:

Nope - not all of 'em ...

Yup. The wild and crazy guys dance. Normally, I do the Mama's porch one (but that's when I'm trying to dance). I don't remember how the Queen Latifah dance goes...

Yeah, we've been backordered on Bozo shoes for years now. :) I usually just loan mine out. Heck, we don't even charge for them anymore, we just hand them out as they arrive. :lol: But like I said, I could have voted for a lot more than two options, myself. :sad:


It looks like Debating Policy and Running For/Holding Office are the big winners here.

Debating Current Moves, Planning an ATTACK! (BTW, Civanator, I believe I wrote that description based on what you've posted), and Voting On Policy are a strong second grouping.

Thanks to everyone who voted.
