[Maniac]

Vote Maniac for Director of Terraformation and Colonization!!!

I have posted my ideas around many times.

Early game I personally stand for one heavy nutrient tile per base for the first worker, the others forest. I also give a high priority to creating a road network. I stand for thin expansion, so I give high priority to producing formers and CPs. Once we have crawlers, condensers to max nutrients on certain suitable tiles are also a good idea. This approach gradually changes once the production limits are gone, but that's not for right now. Besides, I believe the people have the word in deciding what to do. The Director is just their servant and his personal opinion is unimportant. More important is how good he is at organizing polls and referenda. A quote from yours truly:

After some more thinking I'm with DE. The proposed system will create more and more complex polls compared to the system I'm currently using. Pandemoniak wants to reinstitute the system of polling every square of every base. Just like I have made some more general polls such as what should be the focus: nutrient/minerals and at what size should the focus switch, Pandemoniak should create some more general polls for his directorate. For example, he could make polls every month asking:

What should be the standard terraformation in the following tile:

rolling&rainy above 1000 metres, rolling&rainy below 100, flat&rainy above 1000... All those combinations with the option of farm&condenser, farm&solar, forest etcetera... The same can be done for rocky terrain and sea tiles etcetera. The Director should only have to do this once a month and can therefore concentrate on polling other matters such as colonization, special bonus tiles, how much former power to concentrate on what task... To know what tiles he should terraform first around a base, he could refer to the polls of D of IE regarding nutrient, mineral and in a while energy and specialists focus.

That's at least what I would do if I was D of TC. Less workload for the Director and less repititous polls but clear general decision making for the citizens.

So I would organize one poll in the beginning of the month to decide default actions for the most frequent tiles, and decide what actions to give priority based on the actions of the next D of IE, presuming s/he continues my style of polling. Furthermore, I would organize polls 1) for special tiles, 2) where to colonize and 3) where to use our formers.

When can I start a campaign thread?

[dmm1285]

do you support building boreholes?

[Method]

whoa! slow down!
1) This thread is for nominations only
2) A debate thread will be started shortly for each directorate. post you question there

i'm not sure if/for what i will run yet, but i'll come back

[Darkness' Edge]

I haven't made up my mind.
I'll most probably seek re-election as DoPO, but don't put me down for that yet, because I want to see what other nominations come in, and if any jobs aren't filled.

[Archaic]

Director of Social Engineering, again.

I can nominate someone else then myself, right? I'm sure Adam will agree.
