Elections - Foreign Minister

[Ben Kenobi]

STYOM:

I was in the same boat as James Adams. So long as he has access to the internet that allows him to save the disk, then I see no problem with him running for Foreign minister.

James-I don't see why you can't be prez...am I missing something here?

I was also concerned that 'Banana Eves' was a relative of Ernie, thus my vote

Only that James is running for foreign minister.

If civ2 isn't on an internet computer, just how do you plan on getting the save onto that computer? There is no distinction between a minister and the president in terms of needing the internet.

My computer with Civ2 is not connected to the Internet. I simply save the .sav file onto a floppy.

But I agree that you can do that whether you are a minister or the president.

People I can use floppy drive to transfer the disc, but it would be stupid, for me to run for president as I think I have not got experience on another field like military other foreign minister!

Vote for me as experience foreign minister not experience in another job here!

It gets worse, in my part of the world they do not use the term 'floppies' but 'stiffies' to decribe 3.5 inch disks....

Which term is more suitable?

[James Adams]

When is this election ending?

9-9 with 13 hrs remaining - looks like this could be a photo finish

It would seem "stiifie" would be more suitable, "floppie" referred to the 5 1/4 inch disks, which are(were) indeed floppy, as opposed to the decidedly un-floppy hard disks.

But if the er loses, he has an excuse to at everyone for not voting for him. Then again, if he wins, he can with a real excuse...

Make up your mind! Are you not running because of lack of Internet, or lack of experience?

All those smilies make me think of a monty python song

You point is valid though, I'd say let him work for upping his postcount by posting something usefull on our fellow civ's now that he has MGE.

Ah yes, the sketch...
I know most of it from memory, and I'd post it here, but I'm afraid my post might be considered .
As m e-mailer says: "Replying to may result in more ." But they count the 'Poly "Reply to Topic" e-mails as 3-star , the highest level, so...
