Delegates

[Locutus]

As I promised during my campaign, I wish to appoint a delegate to take over my job when I'm not here. I urge all other government officials to do the same.

My delegate will have all powers I have as Minister of Diplomacy, Science and Trade:
* during turnchats where I myself am absent;
* during periods of announced absense;
* during periods of unannounced absence longer than 36 hours.

If none of these situations occur, my delegate will not have any ministerial powers on the areas of my position.

I don't expect to be absent a lot so probably this function wouldn't involve an awful lot of work (if any at all).

There are several posters who I feel could be suitable delegates, so it was a tough choice but I've decided to ask mapfi for this position, and he accepted. His diplomatic ideas seem fairly similar to mine and he was the one who found out about Pedrunn's screw up in the map exchange.

Okay on the off chance im not here for a day or two (not very likely) or cant make a turn chat (more likely) ive asked Turambar to be my delegate and he kindly agreed. I think we had pretty similar policies near the end and the election was pretty close, so he makes an excellent replacement.

To quote Loc,

My delegate will have all powers I have as Minister of Defence,
* during turnchats where I myself am absent;
* during periods of announced absence;
* during periods of unannounced absence longer than 36 hours.

Well, my political career is going nowhere. So I'll bite. Θέλω να είμαι ο υπουργός της υποδομής

[HuangShang]

how many delagates for each Minister present? they'll set the order of command (obviously), but more than one delagate would be make this more meaningful

[Locutus]

Normally one is enough IMHO, although serveral are allowed. If I know neither of us can be present at a certain point in time, I'll appoint a (temporary) 2nd delegate, but ordinarilly 1 already has very little work to do (i.e. none). Maybe when the job gets busier later on in the game...

Well i'm not going to disproofe that this is wrong DoT, so
from now on DoT is my delagate

Whoohoo! Finally! A vote of confidence! (Well, any vote will do. ) Thanks.

Now, to set my evil plan in motion.

[Pedrunn]

Minister of defense

If something unexpected happens and i dont show up in a scheduled chat or I express my absence or in case my last post in Apolyton is dated 48 hours week days old (2 whole days not counting saturday and sunday)... Threads can be started by any citizen and be sure i will evaluate the comments once i get back.

...I want to name in order of presence to be my delegate if accepted of course the following citizens:
1- Turambar
2- Maquiladora
3- mapfi
4- Immortal Wombat
5- Child of Thor
6- Tamerlin
7- Martin Guehman.

And therefore held my powers during my absence

No need to comfirm now. Just when became absent

[HuangShang]

how can the pres be delagated?

[Turambar]

Dammit! That's 7 people to assassinate to get power .

[HuangShang]

7? are u including the pres himself?

[Turambar]

Of course! Killing the rest would be pointless with Pedrunn still about .

I hope the Apolytoners had an agreement with Pedrunn before they were put on the list.
