peter grimes said:There are no term limits in the Constitution... you can nominate anyone you want. However, I'd like a Psychic's Poll titled "Will Feaurius III remain Foreign Minister for a second term?" I know where I'd put my money
I believe he said he was taking a break from office this term. If he wasn't I certainly would 2nd him.
Emp. said:
no offense, but you haven't been around much, I know it took a day or two for fe3333au to talk to you set up a chat. I wouldn't have any problem voting for you if you could promise to be more active, but otherwise, I don't think I could.

Hes around commonly enough. I think it was just that first time which could be for any number of reasons.ybbor said:

Has someone set up that poll ?! ... damn I could probably actually get some psi points up on that one ... 
I also thought that people had to change positions after 1 term ? ... accademic either way ... as I feel a bit shell shocked ... and will sit back and concentrate on Looking Glass and other stuff,
At the same time feel that we are off to a very good start ... we are the only team to 'meet' with 2 other rivals
I will vote for a Foreign Affairs Minister who will
>Consult with the people on all big deals
>Advertise in advance when big meetings will take place ... that way proper briefings can happen
>Retain the AIM Whispers Room which will run concurrantly with major negotiations (It really gives us an edge)
As to the powers of diplomats ... I guess my way is to give them less powers so we (as players) at least get to have some fun ... and feel involved in the process ...
We have developed a system that suits this and I think that the other teams will learn to respect that ... therefore I would also vote for someone who will continue to devope this ...
I will of course offer my skills and advice to any future Minister ...
I must say that I was actually looking at a position to give me a slow and easy feel of what a demo-game it all about and to lesurely develope through consultation, a diplomacy system ...
ended up a baptism by fire ...
Anyway ... It's a fun position to have for 20 turns ... goodluck

There are no turn limits anymore. We had an amendment to that effect, and the 'offening' language was stricken from the Constitution.

I am still running and I plan to give basic guidlines to ambassadors. But a agenda is needed, however it is never set in stone and other things can be talked about.
As of right now, Emperor is the only candidate.
Questions For the Candidate(s)
Do you plan on appointing separate ambassadors for each rival, or will you simply have one ambassador that acts as a representative to all teams?
What are your thoughts on our current Diplomatic Treaties? What about them will you work to refine, and what will you try to achieve with our neighbors in the next term?

Separate ambassadors for each team, more people get diplomatic exp that way.
As of right now, I will go along with the wishes of the people are keep the alliance with KISS. Right now, I do not think it is a good idea for us to get into the war (if there is one) on the other side of the pond. We should focus our money on buding up our nation over here. Sooner or later we will fight the other continant, and we want them to waste money on the war.

I hate to see uncontested races, so in the interest of turning this from an appointment to an election, I nominate

I accept ... the nomination of Foreign Minister
Been thinking hard about it ... I think we are in a very critical point in the game ... all teams know each other ... officially or with strong suspicions.
Following from this ... we will need to be able to react swiftly and decisively on the diplomatic front ... We cannot allow extended time between action ...
Therefore as someone who has time and will sadly not be distracted exploring the other game
because of 
evil, stupid Firaxis who in their wisdom only released that game in DVD format 
in Australia ... and even through an eventual equipment loan suspect that I will probably need to upgrade my system anyway :suicide: ... <deep breath>
Anyway ... I will have time to act virtually everyday ... and instruct others to fill in when distracted by ... ummm ... other delights

I had planned to make nominations in all threads regardless, but this one is tough. There are already three nominees... Three citizens who not only have experience, but are also easy to work with....
I nominate Rujikin. That should stir things up!

I must decline. Recently, I have not been as active as I should be (school.)
Sorry If this is the wrong place:
A FM must be active, and I am unable to fill this role anymore. However, since elections are so close, I appoint Fe my deputy for the duration of my term. I had promised myself to be active, and I was not, but still the Forgien Ministery worked out with the hard work of my ambassadors. I second Fe's nomination.

meh
I was going to nominate my self, but since fe cant play civ 4 and i can, it would be unfair of me to run (no i am not running)
@Emperor Napoloen: Sorry to see that you don't have the spare time here. I hope that your schedule and work load open up in the future to allow you to participate at the level you want. We'll look forward to your return to active duty

Azza you can still run ... I'll have fun either way ...
One thing i plan to do apart from sticking my nose into every deal and chat ... is to be making an irritating pest (a mosquito at 2am when you just want to sleep) of myself in requesting Embassies to be built ... constantly
