((Okay, the deadline has been reached, so now we shall vote on which reforms to adopt. I've tried to lump similar reforms together, and a few I've had to separate pieces of reforms for different votes. The first will deal with the major Council reforms, such as the responsibilities of the positions. It should be noted that choosing to vote for none merely means the Council will remain the same, but it will be declared an official administrative body. This vote will be tiered. All of Firehound's laws are considered separate and will be included as separate votes. It should be noted that the larger reforms may conflict with these votes. In this instance the smaller vote would override that portion of the larger one. For the Cortz, you may vote to include all nobility, replace the Cortz with a Chamberlain, go with alscon's proposal of keeping the Cortz but having them elect a Chamberlain, or keeping it the way it is. It should be noted that if all nobility are included on the Cortz, they will not all be made dukes and the VP bonus for membership will be removed. Regarding succession laws, you can choose between LordDamien's where all males are given preference over women, or you can keep the current system where direct male heirs are given preference but women can more easily inherit. While we're voting on this, we can use this to help me figure out a dilemma. I'm not sure if brothers and their male heirs are considered before daughters. I'll add an extra vote for those who vote limited male preference to help clarify this. Even if you vote for full male preference, you can vote for this just in case. We also can select a native policy with Cossacks, so that will be included too.
Council Reform: Sastre (Keinwyn)/Kostopoulos (LordDamien)/Velazquez (Andre Massena)/Montségur (alscon)/None/Abstain
Council Term: 10 years (Max)/10 Years (Min)/Life/Old System/Abstain
Cortz: All Nobility/Chamberlain/Reform/None/Abstain
Succession Laws: Full Male Preference/Limited Male Preference/Abstain
Limited Male Preference: Brothers/Daughters/Abstain
Native Policy: Coexistence/Trading/Repression/Abstain
You will have until Friday at 9am PST to vote. Please bold your votes and include your character's name and class. I also wish to make an announcement. With the recent departure of some players, I've been rethinking how I handle this iAAR. I've been trying to keep people interested by adding new mechanics, but I'm starting to realize this isn't the best answer. The IC part of this iAAR is what is suffering, but unfortunately I haven't had enough time to make a ton of IC posts and encourage player interaction. I'm changing that now. I'm going to try doing special events between updates, which could be really anything in nature. Think of them as similar to the feasts we've had before, except the subject may differ. Maybe we'll have a jousting tournament or a grand ball. I'm even willing to let individual players set up their own if they want. To pull this off though, I need more time between updates. Thus after this upcoming update, I will be adopting a weekly schedule rather than my usual staggered one that has an update posted approximately every 5 days. This might prolong the iAAR and force people to wait longer between updates, but it will give me the flexibility to include more IC stuff for the players to do. I hope this helps keep people interested. If anyone has any suggestions for possible events, feel free to voice them. As I said, we can really do anything and I'm willing to let players arrange their own with my permission.
