I actually intended that post as a quite serious post, as shocking as that might come to some of you, and would appreciate it being taken seriously. If you're incapable of doing so, please retire to the appropriate thread. We provide a thread to joke around in; this is not it.

Senator Snoopy, that was exactly my point. Thanks for support and putting it so well. Senator Rasputin and his drinking buddies senators Esoteric and Platypus had clearly spend another long night in the Three Weeds.don't worry about things you have no influence on...

Relax Senators. I meant what I quoted. This is a succession game and the players have to be trusted to play. If we appear to be taking it too lightly, perhaps it is because it is the only way we feel we can even be a part of all these 'grand and serious' affairs.
Just because they don't have the strengths of you, doesn't mean you should belittle them
What is there really to discuss that is so all important that we need to sit here like a bunch of pompous armchair glory-seeking Senators who snarl at a light-hearted jest. Is there a limit to the polls and strategy and think-tanks around here? I think not. Perhaps this is the one of the better places to joke, and for that matter perhaps it is a reflection of the truth of a cross section of the players here. Perhaps some of us just don't care enough to act the o-so-noble senator parts you expect from us. Perhaps we would rather see the Bananis Imperalis play drunk and in the IRC chat room where we can share in the drunken stupidity. Or perhaps we don't. Perhaps it was best said in your seriously posted quote:
Each of us has strengths and weaknesses, some more than others, but that's what is fun about DemoGames
Rasputin, I will be spending the remainder of my career trying to make the great monkey an avatar down at the tavern.Before Enlightenment: Chop Wood, Carry Water.
After Enlightenment: Chop Wood, Carry Water.
I reserve the right to speak gibberish in public, to embarass myself as a Senator, and to generally ignore the Bananis Imperialis; assumed competent. The Decadence that was Rome scoffs, I stand in the Bacchanalian temples laughing.

Esoteric and Rasputin, you don't seem to understand what i'm saying. So i'll say it in clear english (or latin, whatever)...
This game is supposed to be fun. For that purpose, we have the Three Weeds Tavern, where people can joke and be silly and whatnot.
This game is also supposed to be interesting and competitive. For that purpose, we have the Senate, where people seriously debate the merits of various proposals, and encourage the general direction of the Emperor's play.
Please keep these two areas separate. Thank you.<Reverend> IRC is just multiplayer notepad.
I like your SNOOPY POSTER! - While you Wait quote.

Excuse me senator Platypus, my sincerest apologies. Forgive me as I'm no native English speaker. It should have been:

I think he's objecting to the fact that he was trying to agree with me (and yourself); it was Rasputin and Esoteric that were overly liquored up ...<Reverend> IRC is just multiplayer notepad.

It seems that Rome has fallen into neglect, decay and nefariousness since the glorious reign of Emperor Aquavian Lungarius. The Empire is but a shadow of its former glory. Let's hope the honourable Emperor McMeadows can rescue us from ruin.So if you meet me have some courtesy, have some sympathy and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse, or I'll lay your soul to waste
