1.0 Succession Game Discussion Thread

**Bootsiuv** · 10-28-2007, 05:25

A little chaotic to be honest, as I had foreseen...

I'm in the process of working on a revised constitution. I'll likely limit the number of props allowed per province, make the senator/governor relationship more important, try to increase governor power while maintaining playability, and a few other minor things.

Ok, first of all I'm sorry I couldn't attend the live meeting. Secondly, I'm sorry everyone voted "no" on 1.14. How could you ??!!! Thirdly, I'm sad that the noble Hasdrubal has not made my votes know to the councill, as I comunicated them to him the same day. Or are only those who attend allowed to vote ?

I also want to congratulate the new sophet, and may his wise rule bring benefits to us all.

**madmatg** · 10-28-2007, 09:43

Yes I know sorry but it was a little mess so i decided not to double post (vote) cause it was already a little bit confusing for our poor Boru

because he was (m)e(a)eting at the same time

I think the best way for not voting live is just to post Y/N with the proposal numbers in front of it

As for a new proposal system my opinion is

1 strategic proposal for buildings for your OWN city

And the BIG army movements the tactical proposals should be put up only by the governors with a max of 3 at the time and they has to be totally different like going north or east and will stay for at least 3 terms/6years before we can change it except for emergency's so that we don't have to discuss this every term

In other words the governor(s) and Senators of the same province has to talk to each other before they decide to post a proposal in the council for there city

It looks also less silly when you see disagreements between senators and governors from the same city in the council people have just to take more care for there own area in stead of that from others

**pezhetairoi** · 10-28-2007, 12:50

Alright, fellas, just to inform you I am going back to the army camp for the week so as far as the Council is concerned I have gone back to Ippone to supervise my estates. I will not be back until Friday evening. However, I might get some time off on Tuesday and Thursday evening to come back home where I have access to the Org (my phone internet browser cannot process php), so I may be able to make a speech or two now and then. But that's not a guarantee, depends on whether my commanders want to give the company the night off, so let's just assume I won't be back till Friday evening for now. It'll be my last five-day absence from the Council, so no worries!

Yeas it was assured before since it will be dificult to have such meetings whit everyone! So, shall we vote or not? Shall the first rounds wait for the new constitution and new proposals?

**Bootsiuv** · 10-28-2007, 17:42

I think Boru said he wanted to start anew. I have to talk to him today. Regardless, it probably won't take him that long to play 8 turns....assuming there are no battles, he could realistically finish his term in like 45 mins.

I'll speak with him later, and we'll decide what we want to do.

Sorry for the confusion. As I've said before, this process is essentially as new to me as it is to you, so I'm ironing out problems as they're encountered.

Bootsiuv

**Leão magno** · 10-28-2007, 23:48

Do not worry, it is still our beta :)

**Bootsiuv** · 10-29-2007, 19:01

I must apologize for the delay. Boru and I were discussing rules yesterday, and I was supposed to eat dinner and retun online.

However, my wife was having pains, so I took her up to the hospital to be safe. False Alarm, apparently.

So, once again, I do apologize for the delay. This week might be a little hectic for me, but this weekend things should be getting back to normal. I ask that you bear with me, and we'll likely do an accelerated term next, so we can stay close to schedule.

Don't worry guys....I think Boru and I have developed a system which will prove much funner for our govs.

Stay tuned....

sounds great

**Leão magno** · 10-29-2007, 23:32

No need to rush...

**Sassem** · 10-30-2007, 00:33

Ow guys this is assume this will be a major development for this game

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

**Bootsiuv** · 10-30-2007, 01:34

I've been looking into our own private forums, with the help of our Shophet, Boru.

I'm setting it up right now, and I will provide a link to the site when it's up and running.

This will give us many more options, as we now control an entire forum. Elections can now be done by poll, and we don't have to worry about hogging up EB's forum space. It only takes a second to register, so I do hope all players will join us there.

To those who just like to read along, it won't be private to view, but posting will be prohibited to players in the game, except for the general comment thread, which will be open to anyone.

I'm also going to create a zip file which contains all of the 'official fixes' we may need, including the disaster fix, and the unofficial client sally fix.

Busy, busy.

Stay tuned....

**Akhenaton** · 10-30-2007, 02:50

Great job Bootsiuv. I think ya'll are doing extremely well. I just hope I can keep up to standards, but I'll have so much more time after this week, it'll just be awesome, and I'll be able to do more stuff.

**Bootsiuv** · 10-30-2007, 03:31

Great...this week is a little for metoo. I do hope you'll be active....remember, activity will grant governorships.

So if you want a province to call your own, activity is good.

Bootsiuv

**Xtiaan72** · 10-30-2007, 03:59

Guys,

Just wanted to chyme in and say that I was one of the people reading along. Obviously a lot of people are because this thread has a ridiculous amount of hits for a topic that has been up for two weeks.

I hope you keep the game on this forum! After all, you are using EB to play the game and they set up an AAR forum to encourage this sort of thing. I was looking forward to screenshots and story updates. Brilliant characters guys...Looking forward to seeing these rivalries develop.

Nice work getting it off the ground! But won't you attract more new players and a bigger audience by keeping the game here?

**Bootsiuv** · 10-30-2007, 05:38

Well, I thank you for reading along with us. Why not join, and take ten minutes of your time every few days to play along?

Anywhoo, I would keep the game here, but there are a few caveat's which make a private forum favorable.

1. I don't have mod powers here, and I find them useful.

2. In reality, I would like 7-10 threads for this game, with polls every week. That would simply hog up too much of this forum, and I don't want to take away from the wonderful stories of others.

That being said, I do plan on doing a 'history of' thread here, where I'll link to various events, so lurkers can read along.

Also, there will be a link in the OP of this thread, and anyone is welcome to come and view, but only players will be able to post in most threads.

I will have a general comment thread open to everyone, so I do hope you'll continue to read along. Having these kinds of options may make for a more enjoyable game, and I do hope to have 30+ players eventually....right now we're sitting at about 10 very active, and another 7-8 pretty active, with 2-3 who hardly post at all.

This is really not a big deal, guys. It's a game. Why not join in? It's not like it will take that much of your time. Surely, you can sacrifice a few minutes every other day.

Bootsiuv

**pezhetairoi** · 10-30-2007, 13:20

Well, I am fully for the separate forums. Definitely a lot better than a chaotic voting procedure. Even the Roman mob had voting queues. :D Just give me the URL, and I'll register as soon as I can! Like, Thursday or Friday evening.

**Wolfman** · 10-30-2007, 23:18

Same Here

**Sassem** · 10-31-2007, 00:53

Is there somebody in this team that can help me to put up my HTML page for my homepage (100mb) that can be used as a proposal vote system all in one page with that function that only authorized people can vote once a time

Just like the poll system in here only with multiple questions and 1 vote per question

I'm still a total noob about making websites but i'm eager to learn

I prefer some one from the team because i will probable need a lot of help in the beginning but if somebody else would like to help that's also ok

Thank You

X-fire: sassem

**Xtiaan72** · 10-31-2007, 05:50

That's cool that you are going to leave a thread or two open here so people can follow the game. Now that you've explained how much smoother the game could run with the addition of another forum it seems like a good idea.

I am interested in joining the game as a senator and look forward to the unveiling of the improved rules.

**Ag3nt_Magnum** · 10-31-2007, 07:23

That's just like in Starship Troopers - "Service guarantees citizenship"

Looking forward to the new forum

**Bootsiuv** · 10-31-2007, 18:10

As I'm sure you all know....I'm going to be somewhat busy for the next few days. I'll be on sporadically at best, not at all at worst.

I will be opening up our private forum this weekend (barring anything unforeseen, but he kicks the crap out of her, so I'm fairly confident he's good and strong

). I just have to finalize a few things....

Well, see ya soon.

Bootsiuv

**EasternScourge** · 10-31-2007, 22:27

This is just to let you all know that I'm still in,even though I haven't actually done much.I had a friend over during the voting,so I didn't get the chance to get that done. However, will working on getting more active.

**Leão magno** · 11-01-2007, 02:19

Same here, as soon as it comes back for our next beta test I shall be there!

**Akhenaton** · 11-01-2007, 02:40

And I as well!
Had our last practice today, so I have a lot more time now... Hallllllelujah...

**Bootsiuv** · 11-01-2007, 03:51

@Xtiaan72

Sorry, didn't see your post earlier.

Of course your welcome to join in.

As I said, I may not be readily available for the next few days.

That being said, I will be sure to give you a spot when I return...I will likely be around on Friday.

Bootsiuv

**Sassem** · 11-01-2007, 16:23

a little Bootsiuv

**Boru** · 11-01-2007, 18:05

Just wanted to let everyone know that the next few weekends will be very busy for me. November always seems to be the busiest month for me. I will be on as much as a can and do my best to finish working on our game system with bootsiuv. Again, early in the week i will be around, but the next few weekends are gonna be jam packed for me. Its great to hear that everyone is still around and I can't wait to get this game goin!
