Ah, I get it. Okay, I'll rescind that resolution to be replaced with

5. The UN is dissolved and a new alliance formed whose name will be decided later. The current heads of the UA, CSN, EF, NF, NME, and the ER will have one seat in a council. All decisions that before fell to the former alliance heads will be made by this council. If greater than 3 people disagree to a course of action, then that action shall not occur, if exactly 3 disagree, the Senate shall convene to decide ((roll a dice)).

[Dave1004]

:< no.

What? No. I'm going to become a scapegoat? WHERE IS THE DIGNITY IN THAT?

[Firelordsky]

Construction: Factory
Research queue:Masscolony,Light bubble,off-world architect
Economic: none
UN proposal: Yes

[Dave1004]

Great, so what happens to me now...?

[areyoua]

Well... you either change your view or something else happens. It depends on how many people agree though. Make no mistake however, your one vote is not enough to prevent world peace.

Also, firelordsky, There's 4 proposals on the docket this time, so unless it's yes to all of them.

[Dave1004]

So, basically everybody but me gets to make decisions? >_>.

Lame.

[Nirur Torir]

5. No. I do not wish this to be a suggestion game.

[Dave1004]

I agree with Nirur Torir. I believe that the decisions should be left up to the game maker. Players should have some choices, but it's too rigged if certain players get to decide what to do. It's unfair that I'm the scapegoat, and I plan to rag on you guys about it forever.

[areyoua]

I don't think you understand what a scapegoat is, Dave, and the problem is that it makes it kind of unclear what you're talking about.

A scapegoat is someone who is blamed to suffer in another's place. It doesn't really make sense the way you're using it.

[Dave1004]

Meh, whatever. I consider the words Scape and Goat to refer to a low-level intelligence creature with no part in the game of life.

Still, your proposition is pretty preposterous.

(I read a lot, but I usually dont look up what words mean :é)

[Sirus]

You shouldn't use words if you don't know what they mean :B

scapegoat
 
scape·goat

noun
1.
a person or group made to bear the blame for others or to suffer in their place.

[Dave1004]

Why does it matter? I was reading Stephen King novels when I was 10, so I picked up a lot of unknown words. Some of the self-made definitions just stuck with me. Oh, and dont forget the Dean Koontz novels. Plus Dragonlance, Forgotten Realms...Ahh yes, good times good times.

[Sirus]

I read all those things too. You should still learn the real definitions for words, otherwise you sound silly.

More ontopic: how is the GM gonna run things like wars between countries? It's not like you can invade your own planets in GalCiv, unless it's really heavily modded.

[Dave1004]

Naw, its the internet. I really couldn't care less. The most that I care about is that my grammar and spelling are, at the very least, adequate. Also, please excuse my lack of punctuation, Vista sometimes turns symbols into this:ÉÉÉÇÇÀÀ

[x2yzh9]

The wars will go as such:
Country A attack country B. Country A has 400 mn troops. Country B has 100 Mn troops. That means country A needs a dice roll of 70 or higher to be successfull. Ten dice are rolled, and if five or more of the dice are 70 or above then Country A wins, and gets to choose what it wants to do with country B.
