Paddy: Ormuzd, can we use yours as the official save... I sometimes make an error when grabbing pics
etc
Paddy: Big Free are you out there
Paddy: Presenting the minutes from Senate Session 19.
Paddy: I have some General Business that we need to quickly address prior to commencement of the game…
Paddy: Point 1. Nominations:
These are currently underway at the Nomination thread. Could any that want to have a go for a ministry position please get some details recorded on this thread asap. It is my hope to close the nominations in the on this Sunday 29th February, and start the elections on that date. A great date due to the leap year. Then run the elections for 7 days, allowing everybody equal opportunity to get to vote. Then the new government will know who they are by the following Sunday. This will allow the Term V Government some breathing space before their first TurnChat/Senate Session.

Ormuzd: we can
Ormuzd: this means one download less

Ormuzd: but I have some suggestions for the work force in 3 of the cities
Paddy: one of us ministers needs to call the orders, after we have discussed them
Ormuzd: you are that one
Paddy: ok
Paddy: which cities WF?
Ormuzd: Valhalla - move the worked from the irrigated flood plains
Ormuzd: to irrigated plains
Paddy: which number on your key pad
Ormuzd: thus we will have 7 shields which means spearman for 3 turns
Ormuzd: 1-4 to 2
Paddy: I already show a WF at 2
Ormuzd: this will slow down the growth too
Paddy: or was that 1-4 to 1-2
Ormuzd: 1-2
Ormuzd: I don't know what have I done while experimenting
Paddy: I like that
Paddy: nimitz?
Ormuzd: I have WF at 2, 2-1, 1, 7, 7-8
Nimitz: yes
Ormuzd: and tax collector
Ormuzd: after this in Bifrost move the WF from 9 to 6
Nimitz: though I wish we could lower it to 0 growth
Ormuzd: this will free the irrrigated flood plains for RoV
Paddy: I show the wf in valhalla as you, but an entertainer , not a scientist
Nimitz: tax collecter here
Ormuzd: and after this move the WF in RoV from the forest to the flood plains
Ormuzd: because we don't need production there
Paddy: Ormuzd, please
Nimitz: first things first are we going to do anything to valhalla
Paddy: 4Valhalla WF 1-4 to 1-2, with Tax Collector in city
