Nominations for next Fleet Operations Cap'n (i.e. - the Matey takin' the turns) for 2141 to 2150 (or 60).
It seems like it's time to give someone else a turn at the 'FOP' role. Cap'n Hercules seems to be getting a bit punch-drunk from all the cheap shots the Cuspidore is taking at him and they can't even keep the phones working at the Foreign Ministry.
I haven't really checked too closely as to who are the active members at the moment (so if I've neglected anyone, please accept my humble apologies), but my recollection would have it that the likely candidates would be (alphabetically):
-Cap'n FlameFlash
-Cap'n Flubber
-Cap'n Makahlua
That would be leaving out the Cuspidore and Cap'n Herc, who have each already served 2 bloodthirsty (thirsty because we didn't get too much blood) 10 year terms and Cap'n Atlantean, who doesn't have SMAX (AFAIK) - have I got that right? have I left anyone out?
We seem to have a semi-independent office of Foreign Minister, which could also need refilling (especially if the current Secretary of State gets kicked upstairs in this election) and we could possibly spin off a couple of other semi-independent positions, like a Base Operations Manager and a Terraforming Czar who would generate and post detailed plans well in advance, which the FOP would follow unless surprise events during play of the turn suggested otherwise.
I would suggest that we work on the FOP first and see if we need a new Foreign Minister or not and then decide if we want/need the other two positions (or other positions all together) and flesh them out and assign them later.
I'll probably post an 'official' election poll in a little while unless someone else beats me to it or the flow of remarks in this thread somehow indicates otherwise.

But yes, I loaded up my chef equipment and sundry cooking bits, not to mention the xenorum and xenotequila. And alot of limes to go with those. *nodnod*
