NOMINATIONS

H Tower · May 18, 2003, 20:09

Nominate yourself to become part of the new government!

7 positions are open in the Politburo.

Once you are elected to the Politburo, you will elect a chairman, who will then select others in the Politburo to perform the duties of Economic Minister, Propoganda minister, Armaments Minister and head of the NKVD.

We need at least seven people to nominate themselves, the maximum that can be nominated is 24 (based upon the max number of poll options) not that I think we'll run into that problem. I believe 4 days should be more than enough to get nominations in. However this is subject to change if I consult with the current STAVKA first. Nominations MUST be made in this thread btw.

(In no particular order)
Nominated:
Stefanovich Ivan Knapovich (conmcb25 )
Ivan Kanzlereisky (Iron Chancellor)
Michaelovitch (Bossy2000)
Grenski Timyfovich Sladkov (greeny)
PinkyGenovich (PinkyGen)
Xenozod
Alsahafsky (El Awrence)
EZRhino
Six Thousand Year Old Man

The ANZAC · May 18, 2003, 21:09

Just for general knowledge, are STAVKA positions (front commanders) and Politburo positions mutually exclusive? ie You can be on one but not the other?

H Tower · May 18, 2003, 21:10

not even yourself? Or are you going to be vying for Marshal/front commander after the politburo is formed?

The ANZAC · May 18, 2003, 22:08

no, I plan on staying right here in the North-West Front thank you

I was just wondering if front commanders can also serve on the Politburo?

Comrade Marshall if the people want me to serve then the people will nominate me.

If not then Ill go back to the Siberian regiment. I enjoy killimg Nazis myself very much!

PinkyGen · May 18, 2003, 22:40

I nominate our beloved Armaments Minister Knapovitch. May the will of the proletariot be carried out in his actions!

No, I believe H made that point in the New Government Poll thread. No going back and forth between the two.

Shaka Naldur · May 19, 2003, 03:22

what happened with the Anzac's proposals?

H Tower · May 19, 2003, 03:32

that's an amendment we have to on, since it is unfair to assume everyone who voted for the first post in that thread also agrees with the amendments.

Ok, people need to accept their nomination before they get included in the election, what if one of those people you nominate isn't going to be around ever and we elect them anyways. So accept your nominations or you won't be included.

If ANZAC wants changes then he should get with H and make sure sure H launches a second poll to vote on the changes.

BTW I accept PinkyGens nomination

Iron Chancellor · May 19, 2003, 09:51

I thank Comrade Knapovitch for his support, and accept the nomination.

Bossy20000 · May 19, 2003, 12:28

I accept my nomination, and I support your nomination, comrade Knapovitch. We must kill those fascist pigs!

Comrade Michaelovitch for Politburo!

For a pure and better communism!

greeny · May 19, 2003, 13:32

I also accept my nomination to be on our glorious new Politburo!

PinkyGen · May 19, 2003, 13:59

Before I go on a field visit on Wed. to visit a place more desolate than Siberia, the capitalists of New Jersey *shudder*, I gladly accept my nomination.

Iron Chancellor · May 20, 2003, 16:12

Ivan Kanzlereisky is my name in Russkiy

Xenozod · May 20, 2003, 16:40

I gratefulyl accept the nomination. I will do my best for the country if elected.

H Tower · May 20, 2003, 18:12

only six people interested so far...

Bossy20000 · May 21, 2003, 05:25

Then we will all be on the Politburo, so no problems after the election from people angry for not being a member of STAVKA nor the Politburo

Dr. Nick · May 21, 2003, 09:46

Oh, we need to accept? Your Comissar of Propaganda, Comrade Alsahafsky would be most honoured to serve the people in this high Soviet.

Bossy20000 · May 21, 2003, 10:07

Comrade Alsahafsky, are we working together now, or still plotting against eachother? I would prefer plotting together, but if you want it the other way...

I think we should combine forces to get rid of everybody that isn't loyal to the party (and thus to us, after all we are the party

)

Shaka Naldur · May 21, 2003, 14:24

the more propagand minister we have the better, we need the people to know how is "really" going the war

Yep, seriously that was part of my plan. Depth in the Politburo so if lets say I need a break as Arms Minister there will be an assitant to take over.

I think this Politburo thing will work well. I hope whoever is in charge of it uses it to the benefit of the game!

I was kind of hoping we would get more than 6 nominations and exceptances thus far.........

Im surprised EZRhino and Obiwan and the Old Guy haven't jumped on board.

Who would he be referring to now?

I can't think of anybody right now

Who did bring the idea of a Politburo up?

Maybe we should ask him to become Secretary General!

FiGu · May 21, 2003, 15:43

I accept the nomination.
I'll do all i can for the Soviet Union!

conmcb25 · May 21, 2003, 15:49

I think we are up to 8 now!

Dr. Nick · May 21, 2003, 16:05

Comrade 20000, we shall serve the Rodina well.

Bossy20000 · May 21, 2003, 16:18

Keep this spirit up. For the rest, I wanted to say that we can use everybody who wants to be on the Politburo. We can always find something to do

EZRhino · May 21, 2003, 19:43

Then Im nominating EZRhino.

You can be a "member at large" or an assistant at first. Your duties can be minimized, when school work clears for the summer or whatever let the Politburo know and you can assume more duties. Sound fair enough?

You have about 24 hours to accept before Comrade Sorokin closes the nominations.

Old Guy and Obiwan what about you two?
