Nah, it's a bit too well constructed. Because there are so many people in government in the chain of command, there will always be plenty of people to step up in an emergency, IC or OOC, and at least some of us knew who all of them were. It's important that the Cabinet can function as a group and select an interim leader.

Question to the Prime Ministerial Candidates

If elected, what is your stance on creating a judicial branch, or some similar mechanism, meant to peacefully resolve prolonged OOC disputes by jury vote?


Yes the elections are long over due.

That's why the PM has the most effective power in our organization and we have a well constructed set of laws. In order to ensure a fluidity of governance in these cases. While I hold the permanent position of Founder, my role is more symbolic, like the King in a Constitutional Monarchy. I will restructure my nation a bit,,,,and maybe we can revive IFC in a positive way, but I leave it to some brainstorming for now...

Well, I for one like the idea that Novo Wagondia floated of an OOC commission/panel, so that the IC government can continue to focus on IC business, and doesn't get distracted resolving OOC problems. OOC and IC affairs need a slightly different sort of mentality.

Hey everyone, sorry for being inactive for so long, and I was planning to step down when I got on today, but it looks like that's already been decided for me! ;)

Anyways, I am back, and this time intend to be more active (less pressure of leadership will be worth it for sure!)

no problem. You got busy. No big deal :)

However, we need someone with lots of free time on their hands, imo. And we need to take a more brave, war-ready stance. This coalition was built on the ideas of freedom, and while diplomacy is nice, we have become too soft and look cowardly. So we need to get into shape.
I assume some war games to replenish our cooperation and revitalize this organisation is in order?

What?! you talkin' shit about my term in office! :P

I'm more than willing to get involved in some RPs... or as much as time permits :P

Yep and I know that from first hand experience too. I worked on a dig site of a Chamorro village and a Spanish Church in Guam a few years ago with a field school (my Dad was in a Micronesian Studies master's program there and I tagged along and helped out).

Modern-day realization of Bolívar's efforts to unify Latin America, with a twist of constitutional monarchy and a dash of overseas empire. The United Fruit Company never existed, and Henry Kissinger retired as an accountant. It all started that one summer, back in Panama, 1826...

Well, I'm not an archaeologist, but a well-connected history nerd. :lol:

I don't have any technical knowledge other than helping dig through some sandstone and sediment and helping find some stone tools, crucifixes, pottery, and other stuff. Heh.


Still, quite an experience. Just being in Guam must have been a blast; Micronesia is a fascinating area of the world. What kind of history do you specialize in?

It was. Cute girls, No snow to shovel, 87 all year round, what's not to like? :lol:

Well, mostly 20th Century stuff. I'm looking to get a degree in Air Power Studies/Military Aviation History if I end up going to USNA, USAFA, or Embry Riddle. Serving my time, and then figuring out what I'll do next.
Thank God for OS!- Deian
