We still have an entire day of the original time. However, there seems to be a lack of other edicts in the Senate. I keep trying to steer the conversation towards new edicts, but i dont think people are taking the hint

Also realize there's only 3 or 4 people that can even propose edicts.

Hope I didn't come off as insulting in that post SB. Just didn't understand what you meant.

This is the Senate, we only roleplay there ;-) if you are "my" political adversary, you may insult me if you wish to

but in this case, I do not feel insulted, i realise, that it was not clear who I spoke to

[Il_Duce]

I don't think people need to post OOC disclaimers that they're not actually mad at the other person. This is all IC role-playing and we understand that. In fact, it says this in the Rules and FAQ. This RP wouldn't be as fun if everybody agreed with everything everybody else says.

Also, I'm finally a member after 11 months. Hooray!

[SwissBarbar]

Congratulations

[YouHaveRecieved]

Wow. Really? I just asked TosaInu nicely and she said OK. Also, no offence Navarro but I think in terms of expansion we should try and not be totally historical. I mean if the Senate agrees to expand there fine but if you want to play this RP like that then I really don't think there is a point. Saying that though I am all for historical accuracy in ever other sense such as building, armies and recruitment. Just my two pennies.

[SwissBarbar]

we don't need to expand historically accurate, we write our own history. But we need to RP our history realisticly, that means not starting war with everyone etc.

[YouHaveRecieved]

Yes but Navarro said he didn't want to start war with Gaul and Carthage because historically the Romans didn't untill later on.

[SwissBarbar]

hm. well historically the romans did not even have a dictator at this time

[/Bean\]

But thats because to do it at that stage of their development would most likely have wiped them off them map...no ones going to commit their new found empire to suicide. We have two legions; we can't accurately declare war on Carthage or the Gauls, even if in the game they don't yet have huge armies.

This is more the angle i was going for. Im not saying we have to actually do it only in 264 (Carthage Wise), i'm simply saying with our military it is not even realistically or historically sound.

we don't need to expand historically accurate, we write our own history. But we need to RP our history realisticly, that means not starting war with everyone etc.

here, another example of what i mean. were talking so much of war here and war there and it just isn't practical lets be honest.

[SwissBarbar]

i completely agree, we should not create a Roma vs all game from the beginning. of course there will be war, but as it was in history we will discuss every military action first, and of course some senators will not agree and some will. this is what makes this game funny and interesting.

[YouHaveRecieved]

I think you all misunderstood as I misunderstood Navarro. I meant that we shouldn't not declare war just because of historical accuracy of expansion as I tohught Navarro meant but in the mannor you have all displayed.

[Ibn-Khaldun]

I think that there would be more legislation proposals if Tribunus could propose them also.
At the moment most of us can only vote but that's it.

[navarro951]

ya thats why i may end up ending this one at 1030 Pacific GMT now. I want to get more tribunes out there to serve out their two battles and become legatus.

[/Bean\]

isnt it kinda, 1044 PMT now?

[YouHaveRecieved]

I'm assuming 10.30pm British time so we've got another couple of hours yet.

[/Bean\]

He said Pacific specifically..though he also said GMT...mind boggling!

[Mjolnir]

Happy New Years everyone.

I agree.

Yeah, I think we're all edicted out, unless someone wants to introduce an edict on which type of government to be put in Bononia and Segesta.

[navarro951]

my bad i meant just GT as in Pacific global time. It is 11:01 right now here.

[YouHaveRecieved]

Forgive me for the limits of modern technology but its sometimes hard to decipher sarcasm in written text.

[SwissBarbar]

next time i'll write "pay attention: sarcasm"

[navarro951]

when the pacific clock says 20:00 thats when

edit: also, if any of you really want a new legislation proposed or something to be discussed, go in deeper and IC PM the Legatus' or Consul's and gain some political friends. ;)

I agree. Roma simply didn't go out and look to pick a fight. Their land grabs were always very methodically thought out.

[navarro951]

hey guys, i went ahead and changed the Battle Points Column in the library to Battles Served for the unaligned tribuni. Tribunus' will never really be commanding so they wont get BPs. But it will allow me to keep track of who is eligible for Legatus.
