Viva la Revolucion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Upon the passing of this bill, every piece of legislation in Red Sox Nation is instantly null and void, including this bill, meaning the legislation is working again, including this bill, meaning every bill is again null and void again, including this bill, and so on.

Anyone with me? :lol:

so basically leaving us with a clean slate...

Might as well...

no it doesn't clear the slate. it only puts us in a never-ending state of transition between anarchy and order.

Wouldn't a simple repeal of the constitution suffice?

i don't think either of you get the catch-22 part of it

win, its really not funny... how about we just put our heads together and write a new constitution...

deal.

hmmm... well... I have an idea... I'm sure you do... so lets all write up our ideas, then propose them

first poker, the constitution. get your priorities straight...

now what creative aspect can we add into it?

We could do a permanent council thing.

hmm... *taps nose*

we should do something with as little hierarchy as possible - something where each and every citizen is involved a lot in the daily runnings of the region, whether it be by control of the forum or control of some political function.

Any other ideas?

You can't have all the citezens in the government because of inactivity. If even one citezen left, you're screwed.

Yeah, that's the problem we already have, hence the fact that we've postponed elections for the time being.

exactly. maybe some form of direct democracy? where every citizen gets a vote?

we should also eliminate the citizenship process - where you have to apply and all that. it's probably intimidating and puts people off. what about if we just had straight up votes - everyone can vote unless we know they are residents of other regions - and we vote manually (post your vote) rather than through the invisionfree polls.

I 100% agree with manual voting.

I also like direct democracy, with maybe three admin type people elected for two month terms, just so precticle stuff like moderation and administration can be fairly handled... but give them no more power than that... have all other decisions taken publically by vote.

What I want to do is create a kind of charter, which lists rights and responsibilities, and defines basic voting rules, elections and administrators... then just leave it.

I'll agree with that.

Seems fine, as long as I keep this post and don't have to do anything else. I prefer to comment on the politics nowadays, not to particiapate in it.

well level of paryicipation will be up to everyone... I suppose you will have to remain as some kind of permanent admin... nothing we can really do about that...

an overlord? sounds good. but other than that, we should try to make as many citizens as possible on equal footing.

not an overlord... just a permanent admin, checked by other elected admins... andway, that there is nothing we can do anything about...

Yay! I'm an overlord!

*Stops around castle eating children*

Wahahahahaha!

ffs

That's an attrative statement, Alyss XDD

What are we doing with the current government?

its on hold...

I thought you said you were against bringing everything to a full stop.

well, right now, we don't have a lot of choice...

besides I am sick of NS... I am only here for the social stuff really.

So you continue to remind us.

Well, what else can I say? What I want to do here is create a very simple system to run the forum, then leave it... Do a bit of recruiting to keep it freash, but thats it.

And I have no doubts that you will do just that, and do a fine job of it.

when I can be bothered...

or someone else can... hint...

but honestly it's just boring with 3 or 4 people - we need to get more people on here or else we're creating a government for nobody.

this is true... but what can we do? some recruitin... weve al been lazy (except d10) and just focusing on NS isn't really enough...

besides, I don't so much want a government, as a fair system by which to run the forum...

Oh come on James, do something :P.

your one to talk...
