To Synedrion (The Royal Council)

[Maion Maroneios]

This is a thread aimed only for players who are subscribed to The Vergina Sun. Here, we are going to hold all Synedrion meetings. They Synedrion is to be held every once a year, at the closing of the war season (Winter). The Basileus has to officially state the beginning and end of every session here, so that players know when they have to post. Elections and voting procedures will be given the form of a public poll, which will be created by me, Maion Maroneios, with the Basileus' request.

How the Synedrion works: Every Winter, the Synedrion is going to hold a meeting after the current Basileus' official announcement. The Basileus is the one who defines when a meeting begins and ends. All voting procedures will take the form of a public poll. In order to participate in the Synedrion, you have to have the corresponding rank (defeault for all starting characters).

When a session begins, the Basileus makes the opening speech, by making the first post where he lists all details he wishes to discuss with the Synedroi. This means all other players have to wait for the Basileus to post first, then start the discussion. After a session reaches an end, all possible decisions that have been discussed will be formed into Edicts, that require half plus one vote of the Synedroi to pass. Only the Basileus has the right of making a list of all Edicts he wishes to undergo a voting procejure, which has to pm'ed to me in order to make a corresponding poll. If an Edict is of great importance and the votes are a tie, another voting procedure will undergo. This time, it will need only 2/3 of the Synedroi's total votes.

If a certain player has his avatar far from Pella, he can send a so-called "representative" who will speak with his voice to the Synedrion. The same goes to the Basileus, who can appoint either his Basilikos Grammateus, or someone else in charge of running the Synedrion and making decisions depending on the Basileus' wishes.
