New objectives will be objectives that were formerly not in use. I have a formula that will determine how many total policies will be in the game, and how many will be added every four years. For example, perhaps the formula said 7 total policies for 7 players. When we start, the list of policies will be shrunk to seven: e.g. "Abortion Rights, Education, Environment, Freedom, Morality, Order, and Economic Improvement". (These current policy agenda will be listed on the front page.) Each player will be given 3 objectives (distribution will be balanced so that it you cannot be the only one with "Animal Rights") from the list of seven. After four years, between 2 and 3 new policies (inclusive) (or between 2 and (# of players / 2)) will be introduced to the game. For instance, I might add Labor Unions and States' Rights to the game, and give everyone either +2 Labor Unions or +2 States' Rights (the magnitude will most likely be the same).
Points are only totaled at the end of the game. It might be 4-7 days long, since each bill might have up to 72 hours for voting (multiple bills will be in play at the same time). ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Done.
Today I played this game with a few of my friends in real life. I'll post a summary of how it went, so that it will be clearer how this game is supposed to work. Changes to the rules: Secret objectives will not display negative points. That makes things too confusing. However, players still lose points if their favored policies go into the negatives. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

As promised, here is a recap of the game played a few days ago, along with some commentary. The one thing I learned from the game: NEGOTIATE.
Format of bill records: [sponsor] : up [policy A] min [policy B] [pass/fail] So, "A: up Econ min morality fails" Means "Player A introduced a bill that increased ("up") economy and decreased ("minus"/"min") morality. It failed." ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Yeah, these policy areas are a lot more realistic now.

Sorry, I was partying and I'm dead hang-over right now. And my insomnia is raping me too.
EDIT: And I want Drug Legalization back in! >:O Else, I'm wondering what "Economy" policy would do on a secluded island that has no relation with the outside world. ;o ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I'm wondering what "Economy" policy would do on a secluded island that has no relation with the outside world. I've sent out secret objectives and updated the policies to reflect the newest "opinion polls." Some policies have been striked. In congressional district 1, the election became defunct as one of the candidates, Raccoon, suddenly dropped out of the race. No comment was made. "I'll be back, SENator," remarked the defeated candidate of congressional district 2. "OlimarandLouie, your reign will be terminated... at the next election," vowed the defeated politician in sunglasses. Senator Raitaki confidently walked up to the stage to make his victory speech in district 3. Three hundred formally dressed men and women sat impatiently in the audience. "I'd like to thank the academy," Raitaki said as a tear rolled down his cheek. In district 4, a Khazakhstanian immigrant triumphed over the French candidate, Napoleon, in a landslide election. "Eez nice!" shouted Senator Borat during his victory speech. "Eez nice!" responded the crowd outside the local town hall. "Community, identity, stability!" declared Senator Fire_Kame, as the cheering crowd flooded the stadium floor in district 5. "Not that I specifically endorse stability or anything." She grinned a wide grin, not unlike the man who lived underneath a nearby bridge. Cameras flashed as Azrael.Wrath and poison_us, the first senators from districts 6 and 7, respectively, shook hands and smiled before a group of reporters. "Working together, despite our differences, will bring prosperity to our nation," pledged senator Wrath. "The people of district 8 have spoken!" TiKels declared. "It is time for a new world... a better world... a Senner world!" Senator TiKels pounded his fist on the podium as the crowd cheered. Thanks to a series of extensive campaigns, Lanthanide defeated the opposition candidate of district 9, Eugene Debs, with a 58% vote in Lanthanide's favor. "It also helped that Debs was not alive to actually campaign," remarked Lanthanide's press secretary. In district 10, Senator Echo defeated expected winner, V. Dweller. "Dweller was the 'chosen one,'" Beth Arroyo explained. "He had a mandate from the elders, but I guess the youth don't respect the wisest men and women in our village anymore." After several months of planting trees, payne was surprised to have been elected as a write-in candidate for district 11. was his only comment.FaRTy1billion claimed victor in district 12 amidst chaos at some of the ballot boxes. "I don't know what they were rioting about, but I'm glad that I won," Senator Farty1billion gazed out his living room window. His house was built on a mountainside, and he could see the fires twinkling like fallen stars down in the town situated in a nearby valley. "And that's all I got to say about that." You have until Monday, Dec 19th at 6 PM CST to elect the first president of Sen! This post was edited 3 times, last edit by rayNimagi: Dec 17 2011, 5:11 am. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
