Rebel Pub (Customer Single Item Sales)

We avoided political parties right from the start. We learned from the previous Civ2 demogame what a nightmare they could turn into. Our decision proved fortuitious based on what we've seen in the other Civ3 demos.

Are you planning on removing them?
 
Not yet... They are quite popular with the people, and have so far only contributed to our DG. But if party politics get out of hand, we may well have to amend to remove them. CFC's experience in this matter would be a good political argument should it come to this.

Another thing I've always wondered about is turnchats. I've seen them here and at Poly and I can't quite get my mind around it - are they really that useful? The 1BC Constitution is set up so, that the various Departments make and present plans, the Assembly as a whole votes on them, then the President carries them out. If something pops up that was not covered in the plans, the Pesident freezes the game and awaits a new Assembly decision. This requires either very detailed plans (useful early on or in delicate manoeuvers) or plans that allow the president some slack (useful as the game becomes larger).
 
Another question - how large is your citizen participation? I've noticed we collect votes from about 50% of the citizens in important polls (elections) and more like 35-40% in less vital ones. This comes dangerously close to the 30% required to make an official poll valid. While terminating inactive citizens is something I've kept in mind for a while now, how do you go about this? Have all citizens reply to a census thread or something?
 
at the moment there pretty much all active but later on people will come and people will go we normally have about 20-39 at least active citizens
 
We don't purge inactives from the citizen roster. Instead, we use the returns from the monthly elections to find our active citizen count for that month. This gives us a reasonably accurate determination of the participation that we can expect.

I must be going too. Duty calls. :)
 
@BC: coke (i believe you mean the tasty brown sweet water including VERY much suggar) is one of the "non-dizzy drinks" costing 4 gold. You buy one?

@Shaitan: Good Idea for the Beers... Consider the drink for Monkey as going on the house and a free beer for your tips ;-)
 
We could order you a bring-in service next time :-)
