There is a new cabinet suggestion poll on how to handle turn chats here.

 

[Strider]

If it is possible could you post the Citizen Honor ranks by June 5th (sorry about the late notice )

If it isn't possible (with the recent birth in your family) I understand...

Anyway CONGRATS!!!!!

 

[Chieftess]

This is a reminder too all cabinet members and governers to post their turn chat instructions here for tonight's turn chat, if you haven't done so already.

Turn chat 1315 AD (June 12)

Phase one of our military modernization is complete and I have called on the military department for phase two plans.
I have called on our trade department to re-open the wine route from England and to get our gems back from Hiawatha.
I have asked the NSD to formulate plans for gaining the tech lead.
I have urged the Culture Ministry to rejuvinate CAP!
I have asked the domestic department to re-evaluate our wonder building program to orient it more towards pre-building these great projects.
I have urged FA to clear our lands of the Greek infestation.
I have thanked our governors for thier cooperation with NEP and have asked them to continue to cooperate with the domestic department and Culture Ministry.
The President's office plans to continue work on building our national railway system.

 

[donsig]

I would like to call our citizens' attention to a discussion about NEP and what our workers should be doing.

We are also close to a new poll concerning the fate of our foreign workers.
The discussion is here.

Please voice your views and concerns!

Turn chat 1340 AD (June 16)

The previous turn chat was halted after 5 turns so our citizens could consider selling medicine and also formulate a wonder building plan that encompasses universal suffrage, theory of evolution, Hoover Dam and a military academy.
Greece and India are also at war with the Iroquois. Two cities have recently changed hands (Oka and Hieraconpolis). We should consider using CAP to bring Phoenatica's culture to the people of these war torn cities!

 

[donsig]

I would like to call citizen's attentions to the following two discussion:

Should we trade medicine?

Wonder building.

I would like to file an official statement of protest with the President's office. It seems our esteemed Domestic Leader has requested that todays turn chat be limited to 4 turns so he could set up another poll to direct the path our nation takes. He did this 6 ours before the turnchat. A person in his position should now better. Last time, he called for an end of the chat out of the blue and caused a whole bunch of discontent, including an investigation on you and a council member. Now he wants to preclude the turnchat so he can direct his nation in the way he sees fit. And don't tell me it was only a request. This circus is getting to be a bit much to take.

When he called for a stop of the last chat, he claimed he wanted to take the issue to the people. Now he wants to spring his issue on the people 6 hours before the chat, without a discussion or any input what so ever from the citizens. Very low handed, Eyrei.

The turn chat schedule for the coming week is:

Tuesday, June 18, 2002 at 7:59 pm eastern US time which is Wednesday, June 19, 2002 at 12:59 am Greenwich time.

Thursday, June 20, 2002 at 7:59 pm eastern US time which is Friday, June 21, 2002 at 12:59 am Greenwich time.

Sunday, June 22, 2002 at 2:59 pm eastern US time which is Sunday, June 23, 2002 at 7:59 pm Greenwich time.

Tonight's chat will most likely end after 4 turns when we discover scientific method. The next chat (Tuesday) may well end when we get universal suffrage in 3 or 4 turns. Hopefully the Thursday and Sunday chats will be 10 turns. I'm holding Sunday's turn chat earlier in the hopes that more of our European citizens will be able to join us!

I am not really sure how this was lowhanded, nor do I agree that I should not post my opinion about turn chats because they do not fit your opinion. I do, however, take my job very seriously, and requested that the turn chat be held to four turns because it is important that we have time to discuss and poll on the science queue. I am trying to get more polls posted so that we have direction based on the wants of the majority, but I seem to be doing most of it by myself. First I have to start a discussion, and then I have to wait 48 hours to post the poll, which means that unless I start the discussion the instant the turn chat ends, the poll will not be valid by the time the next one starts. Notice I didn't post a poll about changing the science queue until it was up for discussion long enough, which would have been low handed.

What on earth is wrong with posting another freaking poll to find out what direction we should take? Isn't that the point of this game? What the hell are you talking about?

Please stop with the accusations, Cyc. I have done nothing wrong here.

Turn chat 1360 AD (June 18)

Tech race proposal discussion.

Please participate in this discussion!

The current NEP report is here.

Since Philadelphia has contributed greatly to the NEP in the last 20 years perhaps we should consider allowing some of our foreign workers to settle permanently there?
