Guest Kvan Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 Originally posted by Tie Guy Well, what can you expect of a politician Anyway, let's get back on topic. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions on how many seats we should have in the senate? Well we are in off-topic so we can talk about anything we want But if you insist, I think there should be Ten people, eleven counting the Chan. I do like the suggestion you made about having the amount of senators are determined by the amount of people, but that can get crazy real fast. Keeping it at a nice low number is better, imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted August 6, 2001 Author Share Posted August 6, 2001 Ten probably will be the STARTING number of seats. I reckon that for every 20-25 members, there should be 1 senate seat. If it gets bigger, we can always expand.. And yeah, a separate forum for the Senate would be easiest. That way we could have 1 separate thread with suggestions for the meeting, and another for the actual meetings themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 can someone tell me about the senate thingy? i have NOT followed this thread at all, so i'm not sure who the 20-25 people you are referring to are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted August 6, 2001 Author Share Posted August 6, 2001 I'm suggesting that for every 20-25 members on these boards, we should have 1 Senate-seat. It's simply a way of structuring the whole thing.. Happy reading; if you want to get up-to-speed on the Senate-thingy, i suggest you read the entire thread.. .....all 79 posts.... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthfergie Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 We should go by Star Wars in the Senate seat buisness. Lets try New Republic for a second here and think. They had a main senate (people of the forum) then they had the advisory Council with the chief of state at their head. I think there are about 12 members in the advisory council, but I can't think right now. So if anybody knows how many members. POST IT!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sherack Nhar Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 *reads feedback* I didn't know I was so hated on this board Tie Guy, I didn't call you a spammer. I didn't want to at all, sorry for the confusion. If we are to let the people vote, then there's a risk that people will be voting for their best friend. But if you want to do it that way, it's okay - it's Paragorn_Leon's project after all Soooooo... on the number of senator issue... I guess that one seat for 25 people is fine. Here another suggestion (hoping that you will consider it after my last post...) Maybe we culd let the people vote for the Senators... and then, let the chosen Senators elect their own Chief of State (or Supreme Chancellor, whatever the name).

Paragon_Leon Posted August 6, 2001 Author Share Posted August 6, 2001 hehe... why do i get the feeling i'm being rushed ?!? look, i'll come with a full-fledged proposal with all the workings written out later on. Possibly friday, definitely saturday. By then i expect the boards to have grown to about 200 members and we'll be able to figure out what to do with the voting issue. It's really ok if people would simply wanna vote for their best friend.. they can vote once in a poll anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthfergie Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 We are getting members all the time. Why right now someone has just joined up. 136 members. We need to establish the Senate forum first THEN we go with the voting so it can all be organized:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted August 6, 2001 Author Share Posted August 6, 2001 well, i only posted the very first proposal four days ago.. tell you what, i'll talk it over with the webmaster and see if things can be sped up a little, alright ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthfergie Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 YEAH!!! Okay enough of that, I'm perfectly sane... This is great. I don't mind it being set up later, but do set your sites on 200. How about 150. We are at 130 something now with a few people coming on to the boards each day so it will take a little while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we culd let the people vote for the Senators... and then, let the chosen Senators elect their own Chief of State (or Supreme Chancellor, whatever the name). But Sherack we could say the same things about the mods, what if you guys only voted for your friends? I mean even though you are a mod I'm sure there are people you like, and you would put them on the board. Having a vote means everyone gets a say not just a few. Meaning there it is less likely that a person would get on the Senate just because he has "friends". I was thinking 10 to keep it low, but you guys are the mods and if you think a higher number is ok then, ok. As to people not liking you....didn't you know that?

darthfergie Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 Kvan may have a point. At the start we might want to keep it to 10 because there isn't exactly 1000 people on this site. (and plus a poll can only hold ten so when we do supreme councilor we don't have to go into 2 polls or stuff like that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kvan Posted August 6, 2001 Share Posted August 6, 2001 Originally posted by Darth_Rommel With every 100 new visitors we add 5 new senators I'd prefer to wait and see how many people are gonna show. If I were you I'd put it at for every 100 you get 1 senator....that is if I was going your way, which I'm not, I like my way better I think we should wait till the game is at least released! Not even 90% of the people are here yet! Plus I haven't rallied my support for me yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted August 6, 2001 Author Share Posted August 6, 2001 if people read your posts and can conclude you'd make a great Senator, you wouldn't even HAVE to rally support, Kvan. :D It was too good to pass.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paragon_Leon Posted August 6, 2001 Author Share Posted August 6, 2001 ahem... if you read the guidelines to the boards, Rommel, that kind of post deserves deleting. I won't for now, but it seems that there's some 'testing' as to how far i'd go.. Not far. simple as that. These boards are the priority and if they're not attractive to read for people who come here, then there's something wrong. if you want to vent something, send a pm. that way there's no post-wasting on the boards. and please be courteous people.. let's show that we only want to destroy each other in the game, ok ?
