    Tell me if I'm doing Jrabbit's job, but I have been trawling through the past of our game, and have found some intriguing (and not so intriguing) useless facts.

    1. shade is immune to all toxins.

    2. 0n March 6, shade (Military Advisor at the time) named Marquis de Sodaq the General of the Apolytonian Pigeon Fleet - basically Air Supremo for our nation. As far as I know this has not been rescinded. Does this mean MdS is still our Air Commander?

    3. Marquis de Sodaq was aiming to form a political party supporting him - they were to be called the Sodaquistas

    4. I don't know how exactly this fits in with our style of play, but the President has exclusive right to veto on any Cabinet decisions, but will be impeached if he ignores the poll results from the people.

    There's more to come. But for now, I must return to my FORTRAN.

    Yes, my pigeons keep an eye on all of you.

    The Sodaquistas are doing well - as yet, I have not faced an opponent in an election (except the first, in which Shaka was actually running for vice-prez). Did you not get your cash-stuffed membership mailing?

    Also, during my presidential term, dogs were banned from the kingdom until the discovery of the 'Poop-scoop' tech (future tech 1, perhaps?).
    The first President of the first Apolyton Democracy Game (CivII, that is)

    The gift of speech is given to many,
    intelligence to few.

    Guess so.

    Some other little facts:
    1°MrWhereItsAt seems to be invulnerable to bullets
    2°MdS has some really good hitmen who work freelance

    Here's some juicy tidbits from the recent past...

    -Jrabbit is a "nascent Sodaquista"
    -shade promised legalizing marijuana during his term - is that still in effect?
    -I signed an "Acceptance to Slavery under Exceptional Circumstances" Declaration during shade's Presidency.

    -Jrabbit officially and publicly rejects membership in any and all political parties.

    I love you, Marquis, and playing Sodaquista was fun. But the Historian cannot afford to be tainted by party politics.

    "Proper"????? "Need"??????? BULL!!!

    Personally, adamsj, I think you should stop comparing our game to the "other" one.
    But go ahead, have your fun...
