Embassy IN Phoenatica

jdd2007 · July 24, 2002, 15:00

Phoenatica has supplied an ambassor, and I think we must return the favor. Both sites could learn a lot from each other.

Ninot, I ask you to find an ambassador to the CFC C3DG...

GePap · July 24, 2002, 15:05

Are they using the same begining preconditions as we have?

Harovan · July 24, 2002, 15:06

Now if we had an active foreign minister...

jdd2007 · July 24, 2002, 15:06

if we had an embassy there, i would know the answer to that question...

jdd2007 · July 24, 2002, 15:07

Sir Ralph-you could have voted for me....

UnOrthOdOx · July 24, 2002, 15:15

Sorry, a combination of your last post and noticing your sig after knowing where you've been...

I certainly have a hard enough time with one board...who has time to spend between the two?

Kuciwalker · July 24, 2002, 16:58

I'll look at it, but not this week, as I'm pretty busy.

jdd2007 · July 24, 2002, 19:24

Ninot, where are you?

FrostyBoy · July 24, 2002, 19:30

I am here trust me

FrostyBoy · July 24, 2002, 19:31

We should make some embassies pretty soon.

I want to hear what the president has to say and the military advisor too.

I hope the ppl of aploytonia will soon open an embassy thread in phoenatica, my home country.

As the mayor of delhpi county, i would really appreciate to welcome your embassy in my city.
You would have the advantage of a nearby national park and a recreational area with a nice resort where you could do all kinds of sports.

Sn00py:

Shortly, I made the poll about embassies as promised and they were approved by the people. The result was, that you may decide to open embassies at will and without further polls. Although asking for the Pres/SMC's opinions would be good.

What we are talking about here, is to open an embassy thread in Phoenatica, the Civ3 Demogame over there at CivFanatics. As you are a poster there too, this should be easy doing for you, and as our foreign minister you have the right and duty to do so.

disorganizer · July 25, 2002, 06:26

I officially second sir ralph. Some official positon should open the thread. We even had travelers from apolytonia over here already, and they started conversation. Just the official embassy is missing.

Mr. President · July 25, 2002, 06:51

I'm gonna buy a summer house in Delphi County!

You really went to a lot of trouble, eh?

FrostyBoy · July 25, 2002, 06:59

Sorry, completely missed the poll.

I think I am missing some info here, embassies with Phoenatica? I don't understand the purpose of this.

Though I have full power to open embassies, I want to make sure the President and Military Advisor have their say on which civilizations we should have an embassy in.

Harovan · July 25, 2002, 07:26

Sn00py:

It's just a friendly act between our fellow Civ3-Demogamers at CFC and us to open mutual embassies. Just open a thread in their Civ3-Demogame forum with a short official greeting message from the Apolytonian government. This thread can be used to share experiences and for questions and advices to/from the other side. They already opened their embassy here: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...threadid=56715

I think it's a good idea and would have done it myself, but I think it's up to our Foreign Minister to make it official.

PS (edit): The poll about embassies is here: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...threadid=56213

OPD · July 25, 2002, 09:01

Someone officail should open an embassy thread then.
I wouldn't mind being an ambassador or attachee if no one else will.

Chieftess · July 25, 2002, 16:05

As president of Phoenatica, I would like to know why our embassy was detopped. Our people are annoyed by this, and issue a formal complaint. Please state why.

Chieftess · July 25, 2002, 16:39

We do have one question. A couple of our citizens were visiting your turn chat. We would like to know how is it that several of you seem to be playing the game? How do you adjust for the random battles that go different ways?

We turned the "preserve random seed" option on. This way, results will be the same for everyone as long as they all take the same actions.

As for the detop, I think Ninot is trying to get everythinng detopped that he can to allow more non-topped threads to be on page 1. But I agree it should be topped; what we need at Apolytonia is subforums, not a lot of detoppings that allow only a few more threads on the first page.

disorganizer · July 25, 2002, 17:27

In which way can we as the representatives of phoenatica have a discussion with the leading ministers and your president to bring our relations back to normal?

If we could get our embassy topped again in apolytonia, i will surely take immediate action to top it if an apolytonian embassy if founded in phoenatica.

Spiffor · July 25, 2002, 17:53

I think our relationship shouldn't suffer from th detopping of the Phoenatican embassy thread. Topped threads are intented to give vital info to the casual gamers, and nothing which doesn't directly involves the current game should be topped (this includes several other threads, like the census, and the election, when it will be done).

We people of Apolytonia and from Phoenatica, can continue to exchange ideas in our threads, and push them atop of the "normal" threads, as a sign of our eternal friendship (that is, until PtW comes out

)

Will 5001 · July 25, 2002, 17:57

Ninot isn't our REAL president anyway.... (you all know the story)........

Spiffor · July 25, 2002, 18:04

BTW, I think the embassy in Phoenatica shouldn't be the initiative of the foreign minister, as phoenaticans aren't from our world (so they're not really foreigners).
Maybe we should elect embassadors in Phoenatica, or just let the first interested person open a thread there, called "embassy of Apolytonia"

OPD · July 25, 2002, 18:11

I'll open a thread there if I can get an official go ahead?

FrostyBoy · July 25, 2002, 22:08

ok go ahead then

Sir Ralph, I'm still confused; that poll is for embassies inside the game, where as this thread is about embassies with another world.

jdd, do you want to take over the foreign ministers job? (serious)

UnOrthOdOx · July 25, 2002, 23:05

civman is leaving, Sn00py wants to retire, and there has been no word from Punkbass...

Ministers are dropping like flies!!!

Dont forget that I resigned

Harovan · July 26, 2002, 03:24

Sn00py: Of course both kinds of embassies are different things. But both are the duty of the Foreign minister, that is you.

disorganizer · July 26, 2002, 07:28

the problem of detopping some threads is:
they get out of sight really quick!
example census:
votes dont count as post, so even if all are voting, the census goes down the drain. if its away from the top 10-20 threads, it will be useless.
embassy:
it will be forgotten about if nobody sees it. we dont have to put in 500 posts a day, but this amount will propably be needed to get it on top of the non-topped all the time.
the solution could be
a) topping
b) posting useless posts to top the threads
c) making subforums ;-)
