[Dolmen 2.0]

Salutations.

I humbly accept D’reks nomination. I will be honored to serve as your Chancellor (did i spell it right? Who knows, voters dont care?!)

To assuage all concerns I am a peacetime politician.

I hope to serve the government by assisting in the flow of origanum, cinnamon and dried garlic.

I like long walks in the park and ofcourse waiting till Jean gets here.

The spice must flow huh?

Is there any danger in just voting yes to this? We lack any knowledge at this point to determine anything, we need to see what policies these two try to enact before the game really begins?

So I guess we all should forward our votes to the mod so whoever that is (Mac?) can reveal them simultaneously?

Is that a Gentlemen Bastards reference? I'm not sure why but I have a feeling that it is

If it is then I've nothing against this nomination.

[Vengeance]

I feel like Tatts is a fascists. Because he wants me to be chancellor and that feels like fake sympage.

[Macros]

All votes are to be posted public in thread

[Tattersail_]

Vengeance I withdraw my support of your appointment. The speed at which you would label someone fascist is fascinating.

Well that goes against the rules apparently

So, any other exceptions?

Also should we bold or something?

Has Tatts officially voted and proposed a counter nominee? Can anyone quote how counter-nomination works?

We have 5 Liberals and 2 Fascits plus 1 Hitler.

Quote

Secret Hitler is played in rounds.

Each roundhas an Election to form a government, aLegislative Session to enact a new Policy, and anExecutive Action to exercise governmental power.

ELECTION1. Pass the Presidential Candidacy

At the beginning of a new round, the Presidentplacard moves clockwise to the next player, whois the new Presidential Candidate.

2. Nominate a Chancellor

The Presidential Candidate chooses a ChancellorCandidate by passing the Chancellor placard toany other eligible player.


The PresidentialCandidate is free to discuss Chancellor optionswith the table to build consensus and make itmore likely the Government gets elected.


Eligibility:The last elected President and Chancellor are“term-limited,” and ineligible to be nominatedas Chancellor Candidate.

[Tattersail_]

If a majority of players votes yes:

The Presidential Candidate and ChancellorCandidate become the new President andChancellor, respectively.

If three or more Fascist Policies have beenenacted already:Ask if the new Chancellor is Hitler. Ifso, the game is over and the Fascists win.Otherwise, other players know for sure theChancellor is not Hitler.Proceed as usual to the Legislative Session.

[Tattersail_]

It says discuss it until we are ready to vote and then vote, so we either do this or go with the flow until round 2.

3. Vote on the governmentOnce the Presidential Candidate has chosen aneligible Chancellor Candidate, players maydiscuss the proposed government until everyoneis ready to vote.

Every player, including theCandidates, votes on the proposed government.Once everyone is ready to vote, reveal yourBallot cards simultaneously so that everyone’svote is public.If the vote is a tie, or if a majority ofplayers votes no:The vote fails. The Presidential Candidatemisses this chance to be elected, and thePresident placard moves clockwise to the nextplayer.

The Election Tracker is advanced byone Election.Election Tracker: If the group rejects threegovernments in a row, the country is thrown intochaos. Immediately reveal the Policy on top ofthe Policy deck and enact it. Any power grantedby this Policy is ignored, but the ElectionTracker resets, and existing term-limits areforgotten. All players become eligible to holdthe office of Chancellor for the next Election.If there are fewer than three tiles remaining inthe Policy deck at this point, shuffle them withthe Discard pile to create a new Policy deck.Any time a new Policy tile is played face-up,the Election Tracker is reset, whether it wasenacted by an elected government or enacted bythe frustrated populace.

We don't need to know more than this at this stage, so do we all agree with D'rek's appointment of Dolmen under the guise of being next in the list? Next round Dolmen gets to be President, so that's quite some power early on.

[Itwæs Nom]

I've read the rules just don't remember all the details and I'm on phone en

So there's no counter-nomination, once a president nominee officially nominates a chancellor it can't be changed and we're to simply vote yes or no, if we vote no the next person in line is nominated president instead and we start the round again

Now, Dolmen has been officially nominated a Chancellor by Drek and we're now all to vote (openly on thread one by one, as contrary to the rules) ja or nein to this government?

[Nevyn]

Nein is my vote.

Macros presumably moved to the vote fast because no one knows anything yet, so there isn't much to discuss.

The only thing resembling counter nomination can be done in the phase before a new president officially nominates a chancellor

Any reason you're opposed to D'rek/Dolmen government?

3 reasons:

1) Spite. D'rek did not choose me.

2) I am near the bottom of the order. If we start approving first president's governments, I will not be president until very late, and usually by then people aren't approving unknown players.

3) I consider it fairly good practice until I have more information to try and prevent governments fairly often. More rejected governments mean more votes and more information.
