Nomination Thread - Term 1

[Anodyne]

Yes, that might be appropriate. Or we might wait till every position has two, provided that it doesn't take ages.

i think it would. i was reading the civ2dg and every post had only 1 candidate, even president.

[Voltaire]

BTW, when are elections going to take place, and who is eligible to vote?

[Anodyne]

Voltaire> We're discussing about the election time at the moment...
And everyone in the Democracy Game is eligible to vote.

Heh, that's true. Actually, the two times I was elected City Planner, I had no opposite candidate.

How about electing just the commissioner at first, and let him worry about organizing directorate elections? It's not as if the directorate has anything to do before the game begins anyway...

[Method]

i thought we discussed that before? just before the game begins, the commissioner holds polls for directors, right?

[Leland]

Oops, I didn't know it was already discussed. Anyway, in that case we shouldn't really worry about nomination deadlines quite yet, except for the Commissioner's post.

[Anodyne]

On this thread? Did we have another proposals?

Well, that seems viable, anyway.

Perhaps someone can complete a list of all the candidates, what positions they’re running for, and what parties they are part of. That would make things easier in preparations for elections.

It doesn't look quite up to date to me. Though I’m certain it will be in time.

Well, we had two candidates for each position most times, but then the Civ3 game started, so ppl flooded over to join the squabbling (it's still going: NEWSFLASH: Military Commander UnberKruX is calling for a revolution to change the leadership ). We lost a few more in my Presidential term when we won the game. There seem to be enough ppl here to have more than one candidate for each position, at least to begin with.
