Rules
1. All nations are encouraged to select a dragon pretender, to act as a Senator. I think it would be good if everyone included "Senator" at the beginning of their pretender's name.
2. Any player not selecting a dragon pretender will not be able to act as a senator or vote on any proposals.
2. Any nation, including non-senators, may put forth any proposal to the senate. The proposal must be numbered (preferably in order, but any number not taken is acceptable). Proposals are to be posted in this thread. Every Senator is allowed to vote either "Acceptable" or "Not Acceptable" to each proposal. To vote, they will send an email to castigatedominions@gmail.com with "Proposal #x" as the subject, and their decision in the body of the email.
3. If 50% of voting Senators deem the proposal as "Acceptable", then it will be so. Anyone may confirm the vote at any time by logging into this account at gmail.com . The password is "dominions". Please don't delete anything from the inbox on this email address.
4. No player is allowed to attack any province controlled by any other player, without the council's permission. Players may attack any province with a white flag at any time.
5. If the council deems that another Senator may attack your province, you are still allowed to defend said province as you see fit.
6. If two players attack the same province on the same turn, this will not be considered as breaking any rules, assuming both Senators leading attacks on the province were allowed to do so. Whoever controls the province at the end of the turn will become the rightful owner.
7. Spies, stealthy preaching, creating unrest with stealth, and anonymous attacks are allowed, but if detected, can be used as reasons to convince others to vote a certain way in a proposal.
8. Any player breaking any of these rules will become a rogue nation for a duration of 5 turns. Any player may attack another player in rogue state without penalty from the council.

Why?

uhh...mork. i definitely called rlyeh on the old thread. and when i made the first post originally, i called it. i think you're out of luck, but if you REALLY want it, you can have it.

i was pretty set on it and excited, though.

i guess i could enable master password. i just feel like people could accuse me of something. if that's not the case, though, i'll switch it to enabled.

[shovah]

Mictlan for me with the draco sanguinus please. thanks for offering to host btw (i probably would have messed it up anyway)
edit: all hail senator vicente valtiere!
ps: if we get a few more players i suggest saephi as the map

Just being the host (even w/o the master password enabled) gives you more than enough power to maliciously effect the game. You can delete people's turns, force-host to make an enemy stale, or delay host to give yourself more time, etc. But having a master password at least enables you to handle any logistical problems that pop up with your players. Like if someone just wanders away from the game without saying anything, you can at least AI or sub them with the master password.

thanks, IH. appreciate the feedback.

[Peacekeeper]

Ill take arco, but would like to play without a dragon as a pretender. I accept all the consequences of this, such as having no vote on propositions, etc. Any other consequences you think make sense Id like you to list and I will probably accept(just making sure there are no surprises).

If yall dont want something like this....well, put me down as a maybe.

[castigated]

i assume that's fine. i say he can still put propositions forth, and is view as an honourable nation by the council, unless he breaks other rules, at which point he will become free game for 5 months time. he will not have a vote.
