I was just wondering how you were going to decide the make-up of the legislative chamber. Since the Fortaleza folk came to an agreement on the composition of the local city council.

I believe the Constitution gives a method, but I'd have to check to be sure what it is.

The Free City of Fortaleza, with administrative parishes, railroads and motorways.

EDIT: In case you wonder why the motorways in the urban area look like a grid... they are. The only reason that Fortaleza would be in the interior (based on NWO's earlier map) would be that it's a planned city.

I am interested in signing up, but I want to know more. Does Fernao have a factbook or some general information that I can look at?

Roose, I'm using the famous pictures of Koreatown during the Watts riots which are pretty much exclusively during the day. Is it really something to fuss over having them in daylight?

I really want to adopt them without objection (congress-esque), but I know one dude will probably object.

Hopefully we can just invoke cloture and do the mandatory 24 hours of voting.

yeah, basically because Ainin was putting focus on what not appointing judges was effectively doing in Fernão, other players thought hey, if people can't be sentenced, they would surely go ahead and start committing crime and a riot.

If we're going to riot please make the posts of better quality than a paragraph or a single line. Not talking to anyone in particular, but I know because we're in F7 and attention spans are fleeting we're more inclined to do the bare minimum. If you guys want to go further with the lack of judges and stuff, be my guest, but make it enjoyable for people by putting in the effort, don't make it not fun by burning down a city in a two line post and ruin everything for everyone.


Please and thank you.

By the way, the Watts riots are different from the Rodney King riots.

Okay, I have always heard that riot as the Watts Riot. I did not know it was actually the Rodney King Riots

Can we get the actual list of nominees and the report from the committee?

I'd love to move forward and get some stuff done, but I really can't vote for someone if I don't know who they are.

Right now we are only voting to head to executive session so we can confirm judges. I would guess that the nominees will be linked once the vote expires and the move to executive session is approved.

I get that, but we could be preparing right now and possibly get things done faster if we have the actual list and the applicable reports now, rather than later.
