Term V Nomination Thread.

[Meshelic]

The executive branch looks quite empty! Other than Ninot, Arnelos, and Togas I don't see very many willing to come forward. For those of you second-guessers, why don't you just step forward and begin your campaign? You're losing time to give all our citizens a clear message of why you think you should be the figurehead of the Apolytons, other than the great BaNaNa of course...

[Arnelos]

I think Aro already said he was quite sure he wasn't running for anything?

If he did run, that would be positively awesome - he'd be great. I'd love to see him actually run, but I think he was rather committed to not doing so.

Really?

Skimmed this entire thread, only found his name once, and that was him telling other people to run , but it's possible he's posted his plans elsewhere and I haven't seen them/forgot.

I'm announcing my candidacy for City Planner.

I plan to bring a lot of experiance with micromanaging Cities to help get the best Production, Trade & Growth that can be gotten from them. I hope to help ruffshod our cities to the point that we will come out of the Dark Ages and be the dominate power by the end of the Middle Ages. I plan to balance City needs with Needs of the SMC. I plan on working closely with the MoE & MoPW on expediting building and Infrastructure.

I hope to have Apolytonia's support with all of this and in electing me to the post.

I would like to also know if I can be in this position and still act as Deputy FM for Trade (not an elected position, so it shouldn't conflict with the CoL).

E_T

This is by far the coolest news of the day

I think E_T would make an absolutely awesome City Planner (which happens to be why I tried to peer pressure him into running via PMs ). Specifically, what I noticed that I thought was the telling characteristic of a great future City Planner was his creation of the wonderful charts of foreign civ trading information and his posting of his spreadsheet(s) with that stuff.... this is precisely the type of organization and analytical work we'd expect from a competent City Planner.

So yes, this is excellent news .

[Apocalypse]

Ninot would be fine as president.

Screw turnchats. They are only making ministers lax in orders.

[ThePlagueRat]

I can't possibly run for a position where I need to download a .sav file beause civ3 is not installed where I am.
Some new offices I can run for then?

[Apocalypse]

You don't need to have the save to be Minister of Science - Just someone willing to tell you what techs we have and how many turns until whatever is being researched is done being researched.

Everyone seems to speculate on my political ascription- Sorry for being unclear about that. I'm neither a Hawk nor a DIA, i'd enlist as an Independant.
I hope that in my short 5 turns term next phase i'll prove myself as being up to this important job. As we are facing a great era of city development, and this position becomes more important then ever. If i'll be elected my first priority would be to re-instate the Provincial administartors so that the all important work of micromanaging will be efficirntly divided between several people.

I wish good luck to E_T and History Guy, and whoever else comes up.


another thing- Aggie's been a SMC for just one term, right?

[Duddha]

CP is best held by a independant.

Yes, Aggie's only been SMC during Term 4. UberKruX was SMC during both terms 2 and 3... I don't know who was SMC during Term 1 (looooong before my time).

[Apocalypse]

Uber was term 1 also. Only he has more consecutive time in an office than me. That will change after I become UN Rep though.

Aro! Man, you gotta run for something . Consider this some friendly peer pressure.

Aro for... err... something . Aro for something!

Aro for Cartographer!
or Aro for Cartoonist!
or even Aro for Saxophonist (one of these days I'll send to ALL of you an mp3 file... It's a threat! )!

Seriously, ada, I'm honored, thanks a lot, but I can't. I'm really busy in this days (ask Arnelos... he's watching the Brazilian elections ).
I'm barely able to find time to make the maps... In fact, I'm late with the last ones... But I’ll make it!

[WhiteBandit]

Alright!

Mark me in for El Vice Presidente! (Actually, I was considering President, but I would only be able to do turn threads, as my schedule is fairly unpredictable at the moment).

Hmm, with only 100 or so posts to my name, I could possibly become the "youngest" President we have ever had?

Well, VP for now!

The only other candidate for Prez will only to turnthreads so that's no reason to not run for Prez.

Vote WhiteBandit for Prez.

Because he loves you.
