Intelligent Holograms

What does the role of Chief Justice entail?

Sounds interesting. Forum or in-game? An what happens if the ruling party goes roque or if a dictatorship is elected?

I didn't consider that, so I take it back. TWP has no need for recruitment, though, so what else could come under Interior that isn't covered by the Government?

A purpose will form as more people add to the conversation. For me, it is regional power. TWP has the potential to be enormous on the world stage; it has the people, the ideas, the community - so why isn't it?

Yes, government is about forum and in game whilst a department of interior could only really work on the forums.

I like the proposed arrangement, especially all of Government being in one place. *I did, I did taw a puddy tat!*

Welcome to TWP! The right direction really depends on you and what you want to do within the game. The best thing for newbies to do, generally, is to read what's on the forums and join in with the conversation and debate. This is quite an exciting time for TWP and so you've come just at the right time to get involved; it doesn't matter how long you've been here, we want to hear everybody's opinion. IH

The idea of building something upon a framework appeals to me more than taking a constitution and changing it just because this could be the rebirth of a new, active TWP with a new way of doing things instead of merely adapting what has been already created. Building, to me, also seems to be a more interesting way of getting people involved. As I've said before, I'd be happy to help in anyway you need me to. I'm currently also preparing a survey to send to all members of NSR, so expect that soon. I'm not pointing fingers, I merely observed that when TWP's activity collapsed until only the Guardians were active, nothing was done to properly reignite activity. Until now. I am glad that there is hope for TWP's activity yet and I await the glorious day when TWP rises from it's ashes to retake it's position on the global and home front. Just curious, but how do you fight against MOD inactivity?

Game mechanics sounds like an interesting topic and one that I would enjoy learning about. Influence does seem like a strange concept, especially for GCR's. That in game influence does not have to translate into forum or governmental power though.

Sounds like a good idea, although, I don't like the Delegate being referred to as king. I do understand that this concept can be turned into whatever we want whilst maintaining its basic form which is a bonus. It still sounds like the guardians are being awarded far to much power and I believe that they should act much like the House of Lords in the British Parliamentary system as opposed to benevolent overlords.

I am warming to this idea but I wonder how this would look on the world stage. TWP lowers all defences and virtually invites every government in NS to come and have a go at "saving" TWP from raiders; it would be an opportunity they would be foolish to miss. Even then, anarchy could get quite tiresome after a while. One ruler comes along and the region accommodates them, changes the rules to their liking, then a new one comes and everything has to be changed again. True. It's all or nothing now.

That is the Guardian I was referring to. _____ Will talking work though? The previous forum was abandoned due to lack of activity and TWP has been talking (quietly) ever since, but nothing has changed. There's all sorts of problems with anarchy that couldn't be settled just with the Guardians on stand-by though. TWP would be under constant threat of invasion and where is the line drawn between an anarchic Delegate and an invasion force? _____ @Phanari: You sound like me about a week ago. We are trying to improve the situation; this thread is here to try and find ways of encouraging more activity.

It's not a bad idea and it could work. I'm not sure, though, whether or not the Guardians would relinquish power that easily - some have blatantly said that they wouldn't.

Welcome to our humble forums Phanari! *Points to the famed TWP liquor cabinet* - Help yourself. Don't forget to join in with the conversations in this forum! IH

Fair enough. A democratic dictator, perhaps?

*Handel's Hallelujah Chorus begins playing over the TWP sound system* __________________ I'll start a debate on this topic on the RMB when the RMB activity is at it's next high point.

I will endeavour to do what is needed. I believe it is necessary to take some of this discussion to the RMB (sorry Tweedy) to get the average TWP member involved in the discussion and to hopefully drum up some members for the forums. Does anyone object to doing this?

Welcome to TWP, your Holiness! *Unloads Chippendale chairs* *Moves towards bar*

Democracy also generates conflict, but within the system.

Can the damages be reversed? All of you have been in TWP much longer than I, have you ever seen TWP recover from activity this low?

Work with the Pope Delegate or for the Pope Delegate?

How long will this vote be open for? The results look quite conclusive.

Roque legislators? Where? If I see any, I'll let you know so you "can assume the reigns as Delegate once again and ban" them. Why didn't you voice this opinion before (Delegate opinion), instead choosing to declare it when TWP needs a system like the one proposed most? What I proposed was not perfect and it needs to adapted to make it as good as it can be, if this includes changing how the RA works with the Delegate then that is not a problem. Every system can be improved. I realise that I may have insulted you with my tirade on the Guardians and for that I am sorry but that is not a reason to completely disregard everything I have to say.

Many thanks for the update.

It will be my aim to achieve a harmony between the two so that they are both extensions of each other rather than the forums just being an afterthought that doesn't really do anything.
