ELECTION OVER
We now have our two, first, OFFICIAL lords of Marga. A big day indeed. (The Jesters guild was a little too tiny to put together a celebration in time, so it will just be a bunch of cheering and clapping from the rabble this time.)
Lord (2 spots)
Glass | 3 | Glass, roseheart, Rockeater
UristMcChladni | 1 | UristMcChladniNow we will choose the official town flag. There were two submissions and more are welcome up until
March 10th. (have them in by the 9th, or earlier for time to get some votes)
Maximum Spin 1roseheart 1Stay abreast of other ballot decisions in the coming days.
GUILDMASTERS
In a week I would like to decide the basic requirements for a Guild thread. Up until then I welcome you to experiment as you have done, with only a few necessities addressed atleast.
-
It must be clear to guildmembers what jobs they can do in the IC thread. (If there are not any, focus on creating them)
-The guard guild, now in charge of coin, will pay the guild when a job is performed, not the guildmember,
so it is up to you, the guildmasters to organize payment. (This is why all jobs start at 2 gold minimum, so some payment could be made, wether or not you choose to do so. Or what requirements or promotions you set to receive them.
-It should also be clear to players, whether guildmembers their or not,
what Actions the guild services.
It has been very exciting to see how you would all run and organize your guild, and I have stolen the best bits I liked, when setting up my
Rangers Guild.
LORDS
As neither of you have set a gender to your profile or your character, I will simply address you both as Nobles. Noble Seth Richards, and Noble Honore Kitt you are both the highest elected nobility there has been, and I will address that gravitas of that now.
You possess an extra vote on general elections, and can Object to a change made by the King. For the extra vote, simply make it clear in someway, perhaps a (2) next to your name. Everyone is already able to vote for multiple choices, but now you can vote
twice for the same thing.
While as you were(briefly) Stewards you had the option to Object, I will go over it.
Currently my highest position in what I am currently calling Bishop, which gives me powers over Global decisions. This is checked by the Kings. As I am the only king, I am still unrestricted in that domain. However, actions I make on a local scale are done as King, which you now can check my authority. All these types of changes will be
clearly itemized in the update Log at the bottom of the OP. You may Object to force an item to be undone, or Sustain it to stop an Objection that has been declared.
It is my goal to be absolutely sure The Bay 12 Kingdom is both sustainable, and in a trajectory to be compatible with upcoming kingdoms, before I move on to focus my efforts on their creation.
In that effort, I must discuss the current political position you find yourself in, the doorway to Kingship. I do not know where we will be in 2 weeks time, but I know where we are right now. Players don't really know what they can do. This is barely even a forum game yet.
It is important at this time, to build outward, not upward. So I will ask you both to redouble your efforts on your guild duties for now before focusing on advancing on the thrown. Like any good game creator, I must allow the players to make their own decisions, and if either of you choose to run, I will do my best to make sure things are as ready to be handed off as I can before I must step down.
This was a goodness for our kingdom and The Three Kingdoms.
