Town Council Elections
Rules say that 6 Councillors need to be elected, and they decide the rules.
The electors are the CKG holders, so that each holder may give any part of his gold votes to support a candidate. Each candidate with 142,858 votes is secured and once 6 candidates are secured, the vote ends. Electors may change their support at any time while the election is ongoing.
Town Council elections are periodical, and now is a good period to hold one, since 1 councillor passed away and another has taken a journey to faraway lands.
We the King have about 485,000 votes and support the existing councillors to continue. We are interested in hearing about the new candidates!
Councillors' duties are quite high level, and they need to be active in playing to be able to contribute.
There is currently no compensation for the post, but has been in the past and might be in the future.
For those that do not already know the existing Councillors are:
HM - Mayor
The Marchioness of Neverland
Duke of North Face
Earl of White Cross
I would like to nominate HE The Prince of Ramsey (Saddam) for the position and would be interested to hear of others who feel they have the time to commit to this position.
The Prince of Ramsey indeed is a fine man for the job. We discussed about this with him, but decided to withdraw our support because he is so busy with other stuff atm. (We got the impression that he is OK with the nomination nevertheless and may be elected without our support if he gets enough gold.)
Our proposal is to candidate
Lord Thud, who has been the mastermind behind the Ultima Project and is well connected IRL, having met not only us, but also the Duke of NL, Princes of Soul and Forte Spagnolo, the Bishop, Earl of Sarajas, Knights serje and othe, and some Master-level characters as well. He is a long-term heavy gamer and designer.
The second opening we would like to fill with
Expert Mooo, since he has been interested in the game, and could give the insight by a commoner player, not too often had in the TC yet.
