Palace location commitee

[Aro]

I agree with the poll, regarding the UnOrthO comments.
Something like this::
Palace in Gaia, FB in Pasargadae
Palace in Macross City, FB in New Tyre (Ghengis plan)
Palace in Macross, FB in Geofront

And perhaps another option, but in general is this.

Note: I’m a little busy in the next two days, a lot of RL work (well, I need some money… ), my apologizes by that. Any map wanted, please post or PM me, I’ll do my best.

How about:
Palace in Gaia, FB in Pasargadae
Palace in Macross City, FB in New Tyre (Ghengis plan)
Palace in Macross, FB in Geofront
Palace in Chiquita, FB in Antioch

I would support this poll, but I would like my name removed from the second option as that is not my plan.

[Aro]

I should express myself better. I meant the city (New Tire). The correct line should be
Palace in Macross City, FB in New Tyre (Ghengis place)

But you can remove your name, of course.

Edit: If everybody in the committee agree with these options, I can make a map showing the alternatives.

Anyway, there's a new Empire Map (380 AD) in my site, http://www.arociv.com/Maps.html .
Here's a thumbnail (we just lost two tiles due the cultural expansion of Greece):

I say with this plan, lets place the FP in Napoleton, as it is the most inland, so it will cover the most of our future german holdings. Then the palace in Macross. How far apart are they anybody know?

[Aro]

Adding the GodKing's proposal:

Palace in Gaia, FB in Pasargadae
Palace in Macross City, FB in New Tyre (Ghengis place)
Palace in Macross City, FB in Geofront
Palace in Macross City, FB in Napoleton
Palace in Chiquita, FB in Antioch

Based on Godking's proposal let's axe the Chiquita option.

So is the commitee going to agree on posting a poll or what?

GhengisFarb-> YES to Poll Proposal
Godking-> No Poll
Sir Ralph-> No Poll
Aro-> YES to Poll Proposal
Ninot-> No Poll

[GodKing]

I have no objection to a poll. However, prior to posting I want to make sure that all five of us agree on the options and the voting conditions (ie abstains and what they mean).

Also, in my proposals, I am less interested in which city gets the FP and the palace.... in other words, I think we can switch the cities around. What do other people think? And how would we poll based on that?

Again - I think the final decision needs to be made by the people, we just need to come up with what we feel are the appropriate choices to be presented in the poll.

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

I tnink one of the commitee members should start the poll after all 5 have agreed to it. I think the FP is very important as it can't be moved.

But since they have different radi it would probably be a good idea to iron out which should go where.

Maybe offer cities as pairs first

1) Macross CIty and Tyre

Then run a second poll for the winning city set that determines whether they want the Palace in Macross City or Tyre, the loser gets the FP.

We can offer more that four city sets, but I think the winner should have at least 50% of the vote, with the half that got the least amount of votes being dropped from the next poll.

The only problem is our constitution forces us to wait 3 weeks between a poll and a runoff, so we have to take months to get an accurate opinion from the people or jsut go with a gut feeling and run one poll.

I never liked that 3 week wait for a runoff clause, it makes getting people's opinions highly inefficient.

[=OttomusCeasar=]

Wow, at the rate this is goind we can expect some results about 3 turns after the game ends.

Half of this committee won't even take time to post in the thread, can we elect a new commitee?

[UnOrthOdOx]

Yes, what exactly are we waiting on?

[GodKing]

Not sure, but haven't heard from Ninot. I will PM everybody tonight and see where we stand on a poll. I want to start construction soon (like 30 turns ago).

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

All I know is I was ready for the poll a week ago, but several committee members refuse to support it or offer alternative suggestions.
