The hearsay of men accused of treason would hardly be taken for anything in RL because of conflicts of interest. That said, there were many slaves and eunuchs present at the faction meeting and every single person there, including that sleazy guard, can attest to it.
I expected the trial system to be "defendant is interviewed, witnesses called, defendant gets chance to present evidence, witnesses called, judge is also prosecution, examination and questioning defendant, summary sentence rendered in any way the judge sees fit."
Bubba will defend himself and will offer to defend the entire Blue faction. If he is allowed to call that guard and the slaves and eunuchs to the equivalent of the witness stand, he's pretty much got the trial sealed in his favor.
Czoklet, please allow the defendants to produce that letter.
RL (unified) Rome extended decent trial fairness to Roman citizens and made it illegal to flog and torture them (the Apostle Paul invoked that privilege). Does Byzantium retain that?
All the more reason Plutocratic Ideas are the best ideas.
Bubba is forty eight years old. If he is acquitted, he'll appear in the Senate again.
Also, does this Roman Empire allow for an Appeal to Caesar, like the Apostle Paul did?
The Azizids and the emperor who ruled in 1520 AD were close enough to appoint a Mongol to the Senate! If that emperor is alive, then Bubba can advocate for himself and his friends.

The roleplay is certainly on par with each other. IC czoklet has always hated bubba. Czoklet made a special exception to the no mongol rule.
The questions pile on top of each other.......
Although this is a good idea, in Roman Law, you are guilty until proven innocent. Thus no one is an innocent... ever, unless there is, beyond a shadow of a doubt, proof that they had nothing to do with said crimes committed.The hearsay of men accused of treason would hardly be taken for anything in RL because of conflicts of interest.

I say we put Czoklet on trial before he puts us on trial!
The Basileion ton Romaion is an abomination born out of a world filled with madness, don't expect too much of it

Honestly, where does this theory of Czoklet being Turtle Shroom coming from?
Only if they are illogical.Wait... we need a reason for conspiracy theories?
Dude....we have an AAR about a resurgent, xenophobic, near-theocratic, Roman Empire fighting off invading Aztecs and Cathar Germans yet you're complaining about the conspiracy theories.Only if they are illogical.
Of course, because it is illogical to be complaining about trivial conspiracy theories while the world is falling apart. You could say... it is madness.Dude....we have an AAR about a resurgent, xenophobic, near-theocratic, Roman Empire fighting off invading Aztecs and Cathar Germans yet you're complaining about the conspiracy theories.
You could say... it is madness.
*puts on aviator glasses*You could say... it is madness.
[You say that treason cannot be thrown about,] but you have read TIM until now?
