I'm going to come out of hiding here just to veto Edict 3.3. I disagree with it that strongly.

[everyone]

you can't veto any edict, it's not stated in the rules, only the dictator may veto one edict that he wishes

[desert]

Eheh, I was kind of using the word literally there. :sweatdrop:

In other words, I voted "no" for Edict 3.3.

[Ibn-Khaldun]

Is navarro playing Dentatus or Blasio??

If he plays Dentatus then voting results of Edict 3.3 are Yes-11 and No-7

If he is Blasio then it is Yes-6 and No-7

So, in case he is Dentatus then that Edict passes.

[Ibn-Khaldun]

Since Mooks voted Yes as well then it would be tie 7/7 if navarro is Blasio. Since he also kind of play Dentatus then he can cast the deciding vote. Confusing isn't it??

I'm talking about Edict 3.3 here.

[everyone]

rather, but I remember correctly for one of the elections, Navarro counted his influence as Denatus' and Blasio's combined, as in it was stated in the Senatorial library but is editted off now.

[Ibn-Khaldun]

If they are combined then Edict 3.3 passes.

[navarro951]

Well this is OOC but speaking for Blasio i guess....If the senators of Rome disagree then he and the dictator will side with their followers, so I will take the casted votes as is and not override any. If we do not want war then so be it.

also: 3 people have not yet voted...these votes can make a difference in some edicts so ill wait, but as i know they could be inactive I may close it later today.

[navarro951]
