Misc Rule Changes Poll

[AussieGiant]

Gentlemen,

Good discussions. Two general points about the rules and a third regarding participation.

It seems we've out done ourselves with rules 2 and 3.

* Taking a page from OK's book on practicality, lets not act as if these polls mean rules 2 and 3 are set in stone. We've found a few issues upon further investigation, so lets just have TC rebalance them by removing the branching structure altogether?

* I think we need to keep in mind that with these "time in rank" issues we have a "tracking" requirement.

Who is going to keep track of these in order to ensure the ranking structure works? Will it be one person in a centralised format (ie PK and his voting influence tracking system in KotR) or will it be a player requirement to keep track of your own situation...assuming of course no one makes a mistake and 20 years later a Duke should not have been a Duke because someone made a small error in the ranking rules? In the decentralised format you have to assume that all players understand the ranking rules entirely and make no errors.

* Total numbers I think will surprise us. As TC mentioned there is about 25 people in here already without doing any advertising.

God knows how many people actually "tuned in" to watch our little medieval version of "The Truman Show" but I get the impression there was a few...perhaps we can conduct a little poll here and ask the watching audience who would be interested in playing? Not advertising as such, but a questioning poll...we'd be looking to exclude all KotR player plus the new guy's that have already put their hands up.

Thoughts?
