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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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.

If they are combined then Edict 3.3 passes.

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.

I will give the polls 2 more hours and then they are closing at 12:00 PACIFIC!
