  • Constitutional Committee: article II

    ARTICLE II: Government policy

    Amendments:
    Amendments to the Constitution can be submitted by any member of our faction. First in a form of a thread where exact lines can be discussed and after that in a poll. An amendment is passed and made official by a 2/3 or greater vote on the amendment's inclusion.

    Office Terms:
    All office terms shall last one month. A member can run for a different office at the end of his term, but he cannot change offices during it. If a member is elected three times into any government office, that member mat not run for any government office the fourth consecutive term. After the fourth term he may run for any government office that is available. If this rule let not have a fully seated government, the rule will be deemed invalid for that term.

    Impeachment and Resignations:
    Every ‘group of X’ members of our faction are recognized the right to bring foreword the issue of impeachment of any government official at any time.
    The rules for the poll:
    *there has to be started a one-choice-poll with the options: YEA, NEA and ABSTAIN
    *5 days open
    * 2/3 YEA vote to pass the proposal or under 1/3 NEA vote to pas the proposal
    the rules for the first post:
    *The unbiased reason why the person in question could be impeached
    *The job of the person in question
    *the time when the poll ends

    If impeachment happens the alpha talent takes his place until a new election has been held

    Every government official may resign from office the alpha talent will do the same as with impeachment. If the alpha talent has to take over 2 or more goverment places we will freeze the game until new election are held

    Playing ahead:
    No person is allowed to play ahead to:
    *gain information about foreign factions

    base names:

    the alpha talent or the commissioner will pick 5 names from the name thread and will put them in a poll where a name for a new city can be chosen. this poll has to be open for atleast 2 days. the name with the most votes will be chosen for the base and will be scraped from the list. the same counts for landmarks. if someone wants to name a place without a landmark a poll has started about giving it a name or not. this poll will also have minimum of 2 days.
    waht does everone think?

            Oops!
            I just posted this in the other Constitutional Committee-thread, but; (copy / paste)



            Some notes on the Impeachment-process;

            As there are three options; Yes, Nay and Abstain, I'd suggest that the Impeachment would occur when

            a) the amount of Yes-votes is over 66%, OR
            b) the amount of No-votes is under 33%.

            Otherwise, if only the a)-choice (as in present suggestion) is taken, the Abstain-option would be quite useless and identical with Nay...

              *the games freezes until a new 3 day election has been held
              or the alpha talent takes his place for the duration of the election, rather than freezing the game. the second option is no good because the citizens might not want that person in place.

                Well, the 2nd option would be possible in a case when a Director has been impeached.

                But in case of commissioner being impeached, that would have to be disregarded (wouldn't be quite logical having the invalid commissioner choose his own successor ).

                  if the commissioner is impeached the alpha takes over and Pande if you work out the court part (or al ready have) we can vote on it that my opinion.

                  But overall is this in the right way?

                    i don't like the second option in any case.

                    if commissioner impeached
                    1. alpha talent takes over
                    2. New elections are held

                    if director impeached
                    1. Alpha Talent takes over
                    2. Commissioner appoints someone
                    3. Game freezes for 3 day election period
                    4. Alpha talent takes over during 3 day election period, and returns to his duties after election.

                    thoughts?

                      commissioner: like A (that is alpha`s jobdiscription anyways)
                      director: liking D (better then freezing and better then totally taking over for the rest of the term)
