My opinion is that the royal family should decide who it adopts or not.
I propose:
ANY WHO ARE IN THE ROYAL FAMILY MAY VOTE, Those generals who are not members of the royal family may not vote. In the event of a tie, the Emperor has the final say.
The MoH may also decline to join without a vote.
Seems fair. Who am I, Efstratios Monomachos, to tell the Emperor whom to adopt into his family? Seems odd that the royal family could in theory have disloyal troublemakers forcibly added to their family. I think any family can decide whom it adopts.
I also dont see any reason to care about how many sons/daughters one has versus adoptees. Who cares? If I want a bunch of sons, or none, if I want a bunch of adoptees, or none, I think my vote to have an adopted heir should remain the same. The Royal Family should decide.
Efstratios Monomachos is a disloyal politician, and he doesnt want a wife (save Anna, but we all know how that turns out) or children. He doesn't want adopted heirs. He's fine being a general and a politician. If I were offered MoH I would decline it.
If for some reason I didn't decline it, I would HOPE the royal family would see me as unfit and demand that I not be included.
By the way, everything here is OOC and cannot be used against me in the game IC. For all you know, I'm perfectly loyal.
