The Snem
Welcome to the Snem! Men of noble blood allowed only! While commoners may enter the room when the king is not present or when a secret meeting is not held, they may not speak out. Otherwise, the penalty is imprisonment for a looong time.
While you're at the Snem, take some effort to rephrase your words. Everyone here is nobility, and while nice manners are not very important in the 15th century, you still have to keep your reputation at some level.
OK, here's how it goes: the session opens on Monday, with the Speaker saying "The session is open" and is closed on Friday, with the words "The session is closed". After Friday your character may not speak anymore, and is expected to vote and leave the Snem. That's right, you vote only after everything has been discussed. You can speak about everything you'd like, and in the meantime you give your official proposal to the Speaker. You should highlight with large letters that it is a "Proposal", so that the Speaker wouldn't accidentaly ignore it. A list is made of all proposals. This list can contain a hundred proposals in theory; however, the Speaker has the power to throw out a proposal if he find it "unethical". Anyway, for more information check out the Rules page, or the first three pages of the OOC thread.
All OOC comments should be posted in [ ] brackets, while longer OOC comments should be posted in the OOC thread. If your character decides to leave the Snem, then you will have to post your messages in the Actions thread. You can always return to the Snem, or you can leave a representative there (has to be a noble). Anyway, you don't have to say it every time you leave the Snem; it is presumed that even nobles must take a leak You can exit the room, go home, pick up some important paper and return without mentioning it...
