Here are a bunch of questions that came up in the Committee thread:
Vote away!

I voted ...

Players are immortal, and do not die

If someone sucks at their job, you can vote them out. Besides that, I'm ready for anything.

RE: Public vs Beta.
This is where the turns will be run. You will still be able to see what's going on even without being a beta tester.
This will affect whether we feel the effect of the TDB bug, and other such things.

Re: Mortality
This is mostly applicable to Generals who will be on the front lines fighting.
If a homeworld gets unexpectedly glassed, some senators could die as well.
It will also make for livelier civilian shipping activity, as ministers, generals and senators physically move around.

good lord, I dont think you will even catch a self respecting Colonel on the front lines fighting, much less a General. They have lots of OTHER people of LOWER ranks to go out and do the dieing for them.

Oh wait, you mean if ministers die on a planet. OK. Heh. Heh. Got it. I thought a minister died when voted out. Ok.
