Hello this is an RP for sim city council.

As a council person you'll need to keep your approval rating high. If it is very high you may become mayor.

You can pick an area of expertise. Or stay more general. If your proposal gets accepted for something that is your expertise there will be a greater chance that it will succeed.

Proposals can be for new buildings, disaster prevention and anticipation, anything to do with a city.

At this time I am calling this an RP because I am allowing you to decide what parts of this we're going to focus on, for example what kind of disasters or urban issues. As a council person you will get to decide what we should focus on(and there won't be dangers related to an area that is that there is no council person for it).

We'll make this up as we go.

Traffic Advisor: YOU CAN'T CUT BACK ON FUNDING!  YOU WILL REGRET THIS!


[But seriously, posting to watch.]

[RoseHeart]

Ugh looks like we're going to need a new traffic advisor now. This is going to slow down the garbage trucks... *grumble*

[RoseHeart]

Name: Rose Heart
Field: Waste Management
On a scale of 1 to 5, what are the worst things that can happen in your field?
1: Hapiness Decline
2: Lack of Tourism
3: Crime Increase
4: Health Problems
5: Rampant Disease
The good thing is none of this should hit us by surprise. If we have any problems we should see it a mile away and it will be because of our own negligence, Mayor.

[Shadowclaw777]

Name: Shadoi Clawio
Field: Construction Department
On a scale of 1 to 5, what are the worst things that can happen in your field?
1: People are late to work because of slow road construction
2: Building Collapses
3: City Weakness to Enviromental Dangers
4: Lack of electricity and internet to the residential areas because we didn't build the power lines.
5: Homelessness because enough houses aren't being built.
I'm pretty sure your going to want to need internet Mr. Mayor in your city , otherwise your ability to communicate and use the internet to search forums won't happen, you won't be able to roleplay online, Mayor Sir. Without me.

Name: Ryan Smith
Field: Urban Development
On a scale of 1 to 5, what are the worst things that can happen in your field?
1: Zoning Issues
2: Minor Scuffle with protestors
3: Bad zoning leads to death
4: Zoning is removed entirely
5: City becomes uninhabitable because of zoning issues

[RoseHeart]

Mayor, waste issues are low, and shouldn't be a problem until we can get to a population of about 500. There may be some things to consider once we approach that number.

[Maximum Spin]

Weird idea, but I'll give it a try. Hm, how about...

Timothy "Blitz" Nixon, head of the Department of Victory.
Area of expertise: Winning.

Possible modes of failure:

1) Not winning enough
2) Winning even less
3) Not winning at all
4) Mass death
5) Losing

Is that acceptable?

[RoseHeart]

No.

[Gwolfski]

Andrew Anderson,
Transportation Dept.

Bad stuff
1 no / insignificant public transport
2 traffic slowdowns/ small traffic jams
3 large traffic jams
4 roads at max capacity, no public transport alternative / public transport also at max capacity, resulting in major gridlock
5 city shutdown due to inability to go anywhere


Edited to be more simcity-like

[Khan Boyzitbig]

This okay?

Name: Mattias Stormblower
Area of Expertise: Energy Management

On a scale of 1 to 5, what are the worst things that can happen in your field?
1. Substation failure & local black/brownouts or power surges
2. Major Substation failure & wide area blackouts/power surges
3. Power plant fault, rolling blackouts power surges and possible fires
4. Major fault in powerstation, damage to station + rolling blackouts power surges and possible fires
5. Catastrophic power plant fault. Depends on what kind of powerplant, best case is destruction of the plant and surrounding area is damaged/on fire, worst case? Fukushima Daiichi.

[RoseHeart]

Alright council, they mayor's seat is empty, as the first to take a post in the city of... this city really needs a name we should decide that. Also we should also make our first proposals. Remember, the city is new, so think growth.

I have nothing to propose for Waste Management at this time.

I like the name...

YachtSnuffed

[Khan Boyzitbig]

Growth, well modern society requires power. We would best serve our fledgling city by deciding what form that power comes in.

Thus I propose two methods of generating power:

Wind turbine; fairly cheap, renewable, non polluting but doesn't provide much power per turbine (or too much and explodes, but unless we are facing extreme winds this shouldn't happen) $250

Small Coal Station; not as cheap to build but cheaper to run and lower cost to power output ratio, no one likes having one nearby and they pollute, depends on a coal supply. $600

If we choose wind we probably could support about 1500 people with one turbine in a moderately windy area, the coal option would allow for a much larger population before we need to expand, I doubt we would need a full sized coal plant for a long time and a small one could support over 5000 people. Obviously those numbers would be reduced if we have heavy industries drawing power.

YachtSnuffed is an odd name but people may wish to visit a city with an interesting name so I vote for it.

[RoseHeart]

Oh also set a price for your proposal. (We have 10K, an elementary school is $500, a residential zone might be $300 ~ 400, a water tower might be 100 ~ 200)

I suppose I'll be mayor until the first election. We don't need to worry about Waste quite yet.
