Term 4: Presidential Quarters - The Dragon Awakens

[Gingerbread Man]

Welcome to the office of Chairman Gingerbread Man, President of Fanatikou! From the forests of Shen Ling to the Mines of Cha Ching, to those unusual cities to the north, mortals tremble at the sound of his voice!

The Fanatikou dragon lies dormant, a sleeping giant. But this term the winds have changed. Our greatest enemy has been crippled, and our expansion phase is now able to be completed, hopefully un-interrupted. It is time to revolutionise our corrupt government, ingame and out. This term is a revolution, my friends.

First of all, can the previous president (Octavian, I think) please PM or email all the chatrooms (both ours and embassies), email addresses, websites, and their respective passwords to me?

Also, CivGeneral, Bootstoots and Donovan Zoi have volunteered (Or been elected) to be assistant DPs and/or Chat-Room eyes. I will organise a schedule for our chatrooms, and the savegame. Please post your timeschedule (in GMT) if you haven't already.

That's it for the moment, more coming later

 

[Octavian X]

Christ, you can't even name your previous president with certainty? Shame.

On a serious note, do you mean our chatrooms, or the chatrooms/addresses of foreigners?

Also, if necessary, I'm still very able to play saves as necessary, though my RL schedule means that I could only watch out at sporadic points.

 

[Cheetah]

I could assist in DP'ing and chat-room-eyeing.
Lets see... Nearly every day from 07:00 GMT to 22:00 GMT.

 

[GenMarshall]

Here is my Times. I will run from 5:00pm EST ( 22:00 GMT) to 11:00pm EST ( 04:00 GMT)

 

[Gingerbread Man]

I want to have as few DPs as possible. I can go from 0500GMT until 1100GMT, and CG 2200 until 0400. Which leaves 1200 to 2100 for the VP (Bootstoots) if he can do part of that. The rest will be green hours, or Donovan Zoi if I have asked him (and he is available).

By the way, if the save turns up in your hours, wait at least three hours for Bootstoots or I to turn up before you take matters into your own hands, mmkay? And for the first couple of saves, please leave them to me until I have things organised.

 

[Cheetah]

Hm ok. So if I wake up and sit in front of my computer at 08:00 GMT, and the save came to us at 04:00 GMT, I'll first wait till 13:00 GMT and then wait 3 more hours before playing the save, if none of you comes around?

 

[Gingerbread Man]

Cheetah - does time run backwards in your country?

Give me time to organise this. Obviously not everyone will be able to participate, as I want to have control of our country. For the moment there wont be this system, I will take care of it.

 

[Cheetah]

Why do you think it runs backwards?

 

[Donovan Zoi]

Actually, my times would pretty much mirror CGs, so it is your call. I plan on being very strict about our Military moves, at least until GCA has been eliminated.

Keeping that in mind, now that all prospective DPs are present, we must take heed of the barbarian camp north of Yun Qiuling. I would also consider changing Yun's build queue to a Galley immediately. We would get it in two turns. With this galley, we would not only be able to move our troops to the front more quickly, we would also be able to scout the coast for approaching GCA troops.

That's all I have for now. I will open my thread and give my suggested moves later today. Please try to refrain from playing a save until these are posted(within reason, of course).

 

[Bootstoots]

I would be able to play the save from 2:45 PM EST (19:45 GMT) until about 9 PM (02:00 GMT) on school days and basically any time from 8 AM to 11 PM EST (13:00 to 04:00 GMT) when school is not in session, checking at intervals of a few hours.

 

[Cheetah]

The galley is already in production IIRC.

 

[Octavian X]

Just a reminder: the green hours that were defined before are pretty much defunct at the moment. The time counter is no longer being tracked, and even if it was, it isn't enforced.

We generally should plan on trying to make someone available at all hours of the day.

 

[Ankka]

Nice. Now we need a settler to put into the boat and sail to those islands to the west...

 

[Cheetah]

There is another galley being made in - that city southwest of Shen Ling - IIRC. It will transport the settlers. The galley in Yun Quiling will help in the war.

 

[Ankka]

Ok. Nice.

 

[Gingerbread Man]

I will be away for the weekend. This means that Bootstoots is in charge until I post again.

Disclaimer: If for some reason Boots is unavailable, go for the Chain of Command idea.

... and I who hoped all the posts from Donovan Zoi held lots of interesting thoughts, but all except one points to the only one with ideas!

 

[Donovan Zoi]

Mr. President,

Please read this before you play the save.

I have opened a new thread to discuss the possible ways we should spend our gpt. Please visit the thread below:

BTW, the save is here...
