Motion for Map Exchange and possible new vote on WAR

[mapfi]

As we discussed in the Chat thread, Pedrunn unfortunately did the diplo proposal the wrong way.

I'm asking the Minister of Diplomacy and the President to please try the deal on the current savegame again the right way around - it still should work as Locutus pointed out and if not - there's no harm.

If it works I'm asking for a new vote on the war by our Minister of Defense.

So, if IW is fast enough and agrees or Locutus (if he wins) then Pedrunn could do this today and tell us of the results.

[Pedrunn]

I suggested that in the chat right before the turn end but nobody agreed not to. So I think from this point this is cheating since we did play ahead (sending the exchange map proposal).

[mapfi]

no - i don't mean reload the game - i meant try the proposal again on the current savegame - just sending it again for the second time but the right way around, no additional money, no going back, just plain give me your map and i'll give you mine

[Maquiladora]

Its worth a try, we might get more information without having to start a whole new turn chat. The we can start some more informed polls.

[Pedrunn]

you mean sending the same exchange map proposal the other way around? first the request and then the offer?

[mapfi]

exactly! where's IW when we need him?!

[Immortal Wombat]

here

[Immortal Wombat]

or rather, at school, with no CtP2 access. So I can't try it out.

[Pedrunn]

IW can i send the inversed proposal now?

[mapfi]

you are not supposed to try it out - just give Pedrunn the permission to do so - I assume you already have indirectly with your post...

[Pedrunn]

If you try you are going to be punished because you inflicted the Section 5 of the Article I of the constitution. Which is the main article. The Bill of Rights! The punishment will be enormous!!!

IW, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!













Was I too dramatic!?!

[Maquiladora]

[Locutus]

If I become the new Diplomacy Minister, my first order of business will be to strongly urge Pedrunn to try another (reversed) map-exchange. That is, if IW doesn't beat me to it

You said I could:

Anyway, Pedrunn can, sure.

Locutus, make up your mind. Will your first order of business be to appoint a delegate or do the urging? I'm unclear as to your policy

[Locutus]

If events require me to change my policies to suit them, I will not hesitate to do so. This merely proves my flexibity...

In case I would have to make something else my first order of business, appointing a delegate would become my second order of business, that goes without saying...


BTW, I think that should the map-exchange fails, we should also try to threaten the Austrians: there's no risk involved in threatening (single threats have no known downside), but it does (slightly) increase the chance of getting what we want. So I also want to ask Pedrunn and IW to consider this option.
