    Amendment: Removal of E-Mail Distribution Clause

    Once the turns are played the president shall send out the save game file via e-mail only to all the members of his cabinet and any Apolytonia member who specially request it.
    Obviously, this needs to be adjusted.

    Suggested Change:
    "Once the turns are played, the president shall publicly post the save game file for all members of Apolytonia to download."

    Options:
    Yes, adopt the amendment as proposed
    No, do not adopt this amendment
    Abstain

    Requires 2/3 majority of voters polled to pass
    Expires in 5 days
    43
    Yes
    90.70%
    39
    No
    4.65%
    2

    Yes, the game should be posted here for all, not on a request only basis.

      It seems that the code of laws have already been unofficially changed. This is just a formality although I'd rather have it the other way.

      If you don't feel the slightist bit joyful seeing the Iraqis dancing in the street, then you are lost to the radical left. If you don't feel the slightest bit bad that we had to use force to do this, then you are lost to the radical right.

        I agree Trevman. However I do not want us to continue to defy the Code of Laws, out of fear it may become a trend. So, if we shall follow the course of publicly posting saves, let us amend the CoL so that we are not defying our own rules .

          Yes, this is pure common sense.
          It will also let us get rid of the email listing, which would be used by spam bots.

            We're all part of the game too. And as such, saves at regular intervals should be available to us.

            So I vote Yes.

              It is a bit silly that we have to beg in order to get the save game. Probably just a function that the president devised to make himself feel important.

              As long as people respect the rules, such as no playing ahead allowed. Too many " I told you so" will reveal this and allow frustrated citizens to vent their anger on carefully chosen targets. (No names mentioned)

                DUH, yea!

                Why should we burden the President with sending out somewhere around 170 emails every few days! Posting it is a LOT easier.

                  Hey, it's not like I ever supported such a thing. You know how I loooooove having even more things to do here!

                  And there's really no way of knowing if and when people play ahead. Even playing along has caused plenty of problems as it is.

                      I have already been a victim of such spambot nonsense several times. Nothing like 1000 + emails from the same source.

                      Anyway, BOT, I agree I like having it available here, and have downloaded it a number of times to see how the game looks since the screenshots are good, but hard on the eyes.

                            I didn't sign up as originally requested, because I'm already swamped with spam. This is a much more reasonable scheme.

                            I was just wondering, though. Is there any penalty for flouting the "don't play ahead" rule? We may need a Grand Inquisitor to punish the criminals among us.

                              I'm going to set up an amendment for that soon... a 'judicial' system of some sort.
