As citizen begin to join the forums, I think it would be nice to have a place to begin talking about what we think our government should be. As the Founder, I obviously have some idea of what I'd like it to be, but it's equally important that each citizen gets to help shape our community. I'd ask that you keep with the city theme, but other than that I'm open to whatever ideas you may have. There's only a few of us now, so no hurry, but feel free to begin spit-balling. |

I agree, but with only three people posting on the forums so far I don't see the rush. daproben: Nope, someone else made the header for me eons ago. Otherwise, I just use photobucket tools.

They can't post here in City Hall but currently they can everywhere else. They'll likely be limited more later, but for the sake of retention I think it's good there are a few open places when they first sign up. |

I'm not sure if you've decided this yet, but I'd like to make a proposal in terms of government structure. The Head of State could be the Governor, who is elected once every six months. This long period between elections would provide stability in the position without making it too stagnant. It'll also provide an exciting event when the election season does come round for the office. The Head of Government could be a Mayor, who would be elected more regular, perhaps every two months. The Mayor would be appoint Ministers of State for areas such as Internal Affairs, Foreign Affairs, etc. The legislature could be an elected City Council of 5-7 members or an open General Assembly wherein all citizens are automatically members and may propose, debate and vote as they please. Just throwing some suggestions out there.

Interesting. Six months is quite a long time though. I think four months is the longest I would want to go, unless we're aiming for something like an elected monarch. The rest of your proposal is quite like what I have in mind. I think a legislature of all citizens is likely necessary to begin with, but we should consider a representative one later on. |

But we also know some people will be against it. Plus we would need to keep an active populace. |
