After reading over Econ's suggestions, some of these were actually my own thoughts as well which I had altered substantially for 2 reasons. I Hadn't thought of making the chancellor do all the work..I thought the players would do it themselves, and this extra paper work would scare people off. I also hadn't thought of what would happen with the construction edicts when we got so many settlements...lol

In light of reading all of econ's rewritten proposals. I am in favor of all of them, and If econ would care to make a short, basic right up of his rules, I'll follow that with a short list of the rules I suggested which we're going to keep.

The only issue I would have is with the speadsheet, if this could somehow be kept in a post online that would be fantastic. Because, well, I don't have excel. I know, my computer is great for gaming, but really old school on the clerical stuff. I'm still running "Microsoft Works Spreadsheet", Excel's grandpappy. (Though to my understanding this along with all ''microsoft works'' tools are available on any windows os)

Econ, would you mind if I still ran the first 10 turns? Or would you prefer to, for the sake of making sure all the clerical duties work nicely? (The spreadsheet and stuff).
