I'm in if the polls can be run for 24 hours. I can typically log on ~02:00 to 04:00 GMT and some days 14:00 to 16:00 GMT.

Adamsj, would you please use (edit) the first post in this thread to list all who are signed up? That way we have a sticky thread listing everybody - easy to find, as that will likely be useful as the game goes on.

**Zealot** · January 29, 2002, 12:02

Ok, I'm in! Don't forget to put the banana option in those polls!

I'm always available from 10 to 18 GMT (except from 12 to 13 GMT, because I'm having lunch

), except on the weekends, which is when I am usually away from the net.

**Frank Johnson** · January 29, 2002, 12:33

**Shaka Naldur** · January 29, 2002, 16:50

sounds fun, but i don´t know if i understand what we have to do.

there is one guy playing (the president) and a gabinet telling him what to do

and there is the rest of the people that is neither the president not the gabinet trying to get a place in the goverment

am I right?

**Vlad Antlerkov** · January 29, 2002, 20:25

Every citizen has the right to vote. The Cabinet members, Ministers, set up polls on some general guidelines and big decisions, so that the people can decide. Hence the name "Democracy game". I do not think we will have polls in the way of "should settler #223 in co-ordinates x 46 y 32 move south or north", but more like "should we focus our settlers on colonisation, irrigating, mining or building the road network for the next x turns?"

Is there anywhere that I can register and join officially? I'd like to.

Methinks you just did.

**jasev** · January 30, 2002, 12:08

Sounds interesting. If it's not too late, I'll join it.

**Shaka Naldur** · January 30, 2002, 13:16

thanks kassiopeia

If i would like to join the game,

as soon as i see how it goes I will run for president

**CannonFodder** · January 30, 2002, 18:17

Count me in

Count me in if possible. BTW, this is my first post to Apolyton, heh.

**La Fayette** · January 30, 2002, 19:46

I'm in, if it is civ2.
Not that I dislike civ3, but civ3 is brand new and has already a tournament at Apolyton and a GOTM at civfanatics.

That is why I wish to make 2 more announcements to civ2 lovers:
1) There is a huge succession game started by Julius Brenzaida in honour of civ2 on one of his wellknown gigamaps (4 of us are playing it now, namely smash, moi, Julius and myself, but it is open to any civ2 lover willing to play a few turns... or more than that). Look at the thread on top of civ2 general forum.
2) There are fierce battles fought on CiC scenarios, since Xin Yu decided to explode my previous records. DrFell and DrSpike also are in, but it is open to any civ2 lover. Look at the thread on top of civ2 strategy forum.

**Wernazuma III** · February 4, 2002, 08:18

I'm in!

**MBloomIII** · February 4, 2002, 10:34

I'm in!

I'd like to be the soft-money funnel as we all know they actually control the President.

Oh yeah! Polls need to be 24 hours since the trappings of a Democracy move slowly.

**Dravar** · February 5, 2002, 15:24

This sounds interesting. I would like to be added, if it is not too late.
