    Trip, please put this thread at the top

    Team, we have one more ministry to fill, and eventually we'd like to be able to place non-ministers in advisory positions. This thread will attempt to help the advisors and our elustrious ADMINISTRATOR determine who might best enjoy what position. Commitment boils down to motivation. With enough motivation, any skill can be taught.

    Please post here with the following information:

    Put the ministries in order for which you would most like to assist/lead, whith your favorite choice on top, and the least favorite at the bottom. Example: (My personal ranking)

    Minister of War
    Minister of Foreign Affairs
    Minister of Interior
    Administrator

    Second, write a couple lines about your playing style. Try to be brief and focus on what forms the core of how you try to play the game.

    Example:
    I love the thrill of the early game, expanding and acquiring new terretories and resources, and the race for important early wonders. I generally build up good defensive armies in the beginning, avoiding early wars, but always planning future campeigns to acquire resources or to knock-off my nearby competitors. My first wars focus primarily on acquisition of resources and key cities, I seak first to cripple and go for surgical strikes. Once my opponent is significantly wounded, I sue for peace, and rebuild my armies.

    (From my ethos message, you can see that I am a deep strategic thinker with allot of strategic experience, I'd be perfect for the Minister of War. On the other hand, I could just have easily written the following: )

    I love to develope my cities into modern marvels of economic and industrial might. I avoid wars and use deplomacy to get what I want. I enjoy the challenge of manipulating other civilizations into doing my dirty work.

    (Obviously, this is a builder/diplomat...) These examples should help you get started.

    This will help our team be efficiently prepared when the game kicks off.

    Please take this seriously, we want everyone to work where their interests and talents lie, and where they'll have the most fun with the game.

    My goal in the game would be to optimize the production of cities, and the exploitation of resources. I don't really like to go to war, except when it is quick and efficient, and leads to some kind of goal (for example, a wonder or a key resource).

    In these kind of games, I also like to conduct diplomacy with other human teams (I have messed long anough with the AI). The gathering of information is crucial here - which civ likes which other civ? Who is going to go to war? Who has access to what resource? What are strategic military positions each civ holds? Can we trade for information with another civ? Those kind of questions.

    The key to winning is both to seek a good balance between food, production and commerce, and to specialize in certain things (for example - combining the Colossus and Newton's University with libraries and universities).

    My Ministry List:

    Minister of the Interior
    Minister of Foreign Affairs
    Administrator
    Minister of War

          Basically I just want to keep the game going and resolve in disputes, much like I do (or did since I haven't been that actively lately) in the singleplayer demogame.

              I'm gonna jump around dept and ministries as long as I am not officially appointed in any particular position. As of now I am kinda focusing my attention on foreign relations since that is the most newest aspect of PTW; interaction with humans.
