Realpolitik CIV - An Interactive AAR

[Whosit]

Let us see what ImpSoc can come up with! I hope you will not give me too much to oppose!

Same.

Time to confer with the alliance on the plan.

Lighthearter, I will PM you for some minor clarifications on things. No huge photo-dumps, I promise.

I want to schedule negotiations with the Khan in New Horizons. My foreign minister, mechaerik will represent the Administration. I also name Ravus_Sol as special envoy to the Irish to assist mech. I will PM you both additional instructions before the talks.

Inform Saladin that we will meet with him. I will decide on a location later.

And I will make plans to deal with that whole host of events Ravus decided to dangle out there. Some things on that list surprised me--I hadn't realized the scientists were still an issue, and we've never had confirmation on whether or not Arya actually arrested Caesar... I've heard conflicting things.

My goal for this term is to stabilize our internal affairs, strengthen our military, and to avoid any unwanted foreign conflicts. A bright new age is ahead of us, and we must be ready to grasp its fruits. Today, we take the first step towards that future. I hereby announce that all major industries are to be nationalized. The State shall assume control of industrial and strategic assets, and these resources shall be distributed according to national policy. From this day onward, "from each according to ability, to each according to need."

All hail Britannia!

(OOC: Just to make it perfectly clear, I am announcing that the turn-set will begin with a revolt to State Property.)

 

[Ravus_Sol]

Damn i wanted to vote for Sanity as well before it closed.

So i'm a Special Envoy am I? Publically my goal is just to sort things out without created another drama. I'm sure there will be some option that keeps most people happy.

The Scientists were something i revealed when Arya took the Presidency. But he doesn't seem to have put any specific orders about them in his plans... and so they just sort of fell by the wayside.

Caeser was kidnapped and taken to Arya's home according to what it said... so unless he did something without telling Caeser is probably locked in his basement.

Ravus it was never done to my knowledge.

TW I'm sorry to say that your not part of an opposition. Your part is independent of any coalition, therefore either WIM or myself is OP. I will leave it up to WIM to decide.

 

[W|M]

arya is OP, I'm on MP BtS and other parts of the forum too much for me.

 

[Dem Taqat]

SAnity got more votes than your entire coalition put together. That should put TT in as oppositon leader, even if he isn't in a coalition, as he is the opposing party with most votes.

[arya126]

DT if he wants the OP position so badly, then he can split the opposition, making it impossible for anything to be done. But as sanity is not part of the opposing coalition he can't be leader of the peace opposition.

 

[Lighthearter]

OK, the GM doesn't decide who the OPLDR is. That's for the opposition to figure out. If you have a dispute, split the opposition.

[Twinkletoes89]

arya I was burned once already with you being in a position of power being propped up by my party, I will not make that mistake again in a hurry.

I have more votes, if you want a united opposition you join with me under my leadership. If you can't swallow your pride to do so, then the opposition is split.

 

[arya126]

....How have u been burned? You were a big influence on what I did. It looks like your just holding a grudge because you thought you would be supported by the patriots this election. I never even promised such, but you assumed so anyway. I am not totally at fault for it anyway. If you blame anyone, blame Aysee. He was the major party of the coalition.

But if you insist on holding a grudge, then consider this opposition divided. But don't use mE as an excuse. WIM would be my first choice. But he declined. So I took it.

 

[Ravus_Sol]

Oh dear... so we have a Whosit Administration with two oppositions, one nuetral and one more opposing led by Arya... Is anyone else having flashbacks?

So Ceaser was never "dissapeared"? then Arya? Or is it more of a case you gave the order then never recieved any follow up yourself? Just need to know whether it's on the list of issues to deal with.

 

[Dem Taqat]

Oh dear... so we have a Whosit Administration with two oppositions, one nuetral and one more opposing led by Arya... Is anyone else having flashbacks?

OH, NO!

The time of Pain is coming. Pain for all the supporters of this Foolish 'Reformation,' but mainly pain for the Admin.

I would like to poit out that I support The existance of TT's opposition, as I trust them to give Responses formed completely out of Logic, rather than Ideals.

Flashbacks

 

[arya126]

Wow does this bring back memories. Same prez, opposition split, me as op. All that's missing is the narrative. If I can get on the computer I will start one.

 

[Twinkletoes89]

There is one difference!

There is a voice of sanity in the opposition even if there is a lesser faction within the opposition that doesn't subscribe to their policies.

 

[Whosit]

Wow does this bring back memories. Same prez, opposition split, me as op. All that's missing is the narrative. If I can get on the computer I will start one.

Y'know, I've been wondering: Should I be writing narratives? Would that be a good thing for me to do? 'Cuz I could do that.

 

[Twinkletoes89]

Its gone a bit quiet again!! Give me something to oppose!!

 

[Whosit]

Its gone a bit quiet again!! Give me something to oppose!!

Yeah, I know. I've become busy again, and I thought I'd try waiting for LH to deliver the information I requested before doing much, but I suppose I ought to make some preliminary plans first.

I should be able to squeeze in enough time Friday evening (my time, of course) to have something for Parliament to consider, but I will not submit a final Plan before I have LH's info.

Members of the administration: I'll try to get some bare-bones ideas to you soon, so keep an eye on your in-boxes.

Happy Bday Man!

 

[Twinkletoes89]

Indeed Happy Birthday LH!

Can't believe you are only 16 - your writing is great for someone years older than you!

 

[Dem Taqat]

Sorry I haven't been active - today's my 16th and I've been partying!

Happy Birthday! (yesterday)

16 was a good year for me. The coursework, the Exams, the last minute revision; I remeber it well . (Not hard, it wasn't that long ago ) Hope you enjoy it too!
