The Galactic Senate

Published on March 31, 2008 By DSep In Metaverse

Welcome all! The Galactic Senate will be our new meeting room to decide on metaverse matters! This means that this is it's sole function...for now. This may change. This is not a slander thread like the Galactic Council one. There is no tolerance for profanity and swearing.
The leader of the senate will be voted upon once every 3 weeks! When the leader's term is up, he may be elected as many times as the voters want...unlimited! You may vote for yourself!
If the leader of the Senate does something inappropriate on this thread, then he will be immediately ousted and his throat will be slit with a razor. Then we'll rip his heart out and "The Legions of Darkness" (The Raiders special forces) will feast on it!
To be elected, one must have at least 12 the most votes! You may only vote for 1 person each ELECTION!
All issues must be brought to attention by either a senator or overlord of an empire! A citizen may bring up an issue, but it will not be voted on until a senator or overlord formally proposes it. To be considered a senator or overlord, you must have at least one other person in your empire besides yourself and you must have senator status!
That's all there is to say....now let's get started!

AMENDMENTS:
1. Anyone who is a senator in more than 1 empire counts as 2 votes but NOT 2 people! If you wish to be counted as a "Super" Senator, you must send me a PM telling me which empires you're a senator in.
2. The leader of the 1st place empire counts as 3 votes!
3. Free beer for all in attendance, but not to excess.
4. To pass anything, it must receive at least 12 6 votes, but if the nos outweigh the yeses, then it does not get passed.

Current First Place Empire Leader: Kzinti Patriarch

CURRENT SENATE LEADER: DSep

NEXT ELECTION: Whenever I decide...but i'm a dictator, so i proably won't.

Opps. Sorry. Anyhow, I wanted to make the MV a better place for evil (althoughit already is) and make it a living hell for good if I won.

If this election is being run by the rules at the top of the page, then it appears the vote stands as such...

DSep - 3 Votes

Emperor Seth - 1 Vote

The way I see it, DSep has three votes - one from himself, one from Freeman, and one from MottiKhan. Unless we choose to count the two votes for Seth from Motti's other two accounts, I believe that his vote should come from his most frequently used account, which is MottiKhan. Seth has one vote - one from himself.

Like I said - if this election is being run by the rules, both myself and mADDYman don't get a vote because we are not senators in any empire, though we are members. Ultimately, however we run this election process is going to be decided by DSep, since he is the current Senate Leader.

If we do count both Llama_Man and Solembum's two votes (one per person), then the score is tied at three to three. I personally believe that these votes should be counted, because the "rules" don't say anything about a user's multiple accounts being restricted to one total vote.

Yeah... I think I'm going to follow in mADDYman's footsteps and just quietly back out of this thread. It's become a bit... overcomplicated......

I never said I was backing out of the thread. Just said I was standing on the sidelines and watching everyone else make the big choices and I'll just going along with it.

*Whoosh*

I have returned briefly to reply that I meant that I was done getting involved in the politics of this Senate. I'm still going to keep an eye on it from time to time.

You'll just never know when I'm watching you...

*Whoosh* - (with a barely a breeze to prove that he was ever here, Cypher vanished)

This whole thread is just a stupor. I think i even saw George W running around here somewhere wearing a nappy that said..."I'm too sexy for my nappy" on it.

That nappy was sexier than he was, by far.
