My word...
I think I've found the only thing I love besides gold.
I can see my taxes are being put to good use with this military. Defend our borders, heroes of Rome! Make the other countries fear us! Perhaps then, they would put aside their swords, grovel for mercy, and then engage in a fair trade....
Isn't all trade fair trade? :cool4:
It is time we bring the populists down to the level we want them to be on

Well this shall be my last vote today, as I must go elsewhere. Hopefully when I return from my journeys I will have someone to aid me and the noble Civic branch.

I agree that Commander Secura is rather pleasing to the eye. However fair trade, ha, that's non-existant these days. And I can't get a good pizza.
I can't help but notice that people are still taking potshots at my faction even though it is the smallest. I don't like that at all.

(It doesn't work like that, I think. You can vote only if it's been one hour or more since your last vote. That's how Threadwars usually work. I'll consider your vote good, but it should be looked into by our host.)

Friends, Countrymen, lend me your Ears should we allow the Capite Censii to make decisions for Rome?
No, rather a military dictatorship or theocracy than the unwashed masses controlling any part of the Senate's dealings.

Pizza, you can only vote an hour after your last post. Considering your current votes as legal, I'll go:

You will need to wait 1hr 35mins from your last post to even out what you "cheated" by these last two posts, though (and that's pretty large, assuming you spend 0 minutes replying each time)

1. I consider ATPG's posts so far valid. However, from this post forward, please check the time when you voted the last time. I can forgive if players post ~10 minutes before the right time but that's all.
2. Elections
Correct me if I'm wrong but here is the current tally:
God Emperor(4): God Emperor, Askthepizzaguy, robbiecon, Secura
Diamondeye(2): Diamondeye, Romanic
3. And after all that time we have almost the same situation as we had in the beginning. Well, don't worry people, things will get better next turn. :evilgrin:

The Populists offer nothing to this Republic.
The Merchants offer goods and services, and pay more than their fair share of taxes. We also don't need to leech off of the state. The Military which we pay for defends our very lives, and allows the peace which results in trade. Without our soldiers and generals, we could be invaded and our goods stolen by some barbarians. The Civic-minded among us pave our roads and build our economy from the ground up, and keep our government functioning. The religious keep our people righteous and fair-minded.
The odd ones out are the bloody populists. Filthy worms, that's all they are! Drawing graffiti on the palace walls, stealing from the granary, snatching goods off of our carts... they live in squalor and filth and aren't even fit enough to fight for Rome.
What manner of men are these? They're not men, they're rodents!
It's 13 minutes till an hour is up, but this is my last vote of the day, so I'll just do it now.

Commander Secura
of the Military Faction
Lords of the Senate!
I return from our lands further afield where the effort to fully incorporate the local peasants into our glorious empire are proceeding as planned! There are some problems in the northern reaches of the lands, but our military might will soon bring the barbarians into line if diplomacy will not!
In the meantime, I suggest staving off this assault against the Populist faction, they have not had their say for some time now and I feel that their purported voice of the common man might come in use for concluding our campaigns abroad as swiftly and peacefully as possible.

Wait until I open Turn 2.
Thank you Secura for correcting the tally. :bow:
Edit: Also, Yoyoma1910 have joined the Civic faction.
The Senate is open for discussions once again!
Turn 2
Small group of men stood behind the pillars and discussed something. They kept their voices as quiet as they could. Then, one of the men took out some pouches and gave it to another two men. After nodding to each other the two men left. -2 to Civic faction
