Quote from: Mic'haglh Autófil, SMC EiP on April 28, 2024, 02:38:19 PMThe intent was to also rebalance catchment areas elsewhere, which would likely result (should result) in VD's catchment area gaining nations (and thus potential immigrants). This is just step one of that process.Ok, but why?
Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN on April 13, 2024, 06:24:00 AMI'm somewhat "on the spectrum" so forgive me if I can't tell which of the three reactions is appropriate:
a) Ha ha, well, that excuses me from taking this proposal seriously in any way.
b) I suppose if you're intermittently active in Talossa, deliberately causing uproar and chaos at the heart of the political system might be funny from a distance, but less funny for the people who keep this Kingdom going day to day to put up with this - let's re-emphasise because the good Baron insists on it - lifetime appointment.
c) Someone always seems to come up with a "wacky suggestion" just when we seem to be close to consensus on political reform. I am reminded of someone saying that nothing should really be allowed to change in Talossan politics because that would make it confusing for citizens to come back from extended break. Like, Talossa should be a daytime soap opera where nothing really changes and nothing really happens.
Quote from: GV on April 19, 2024, 04:38:32 PMMax would drive this country over the edge.How? I don't agree with that at all. Either way he has already said he's not interested in becoming King.
QuoteI absolutely do *not* want IV as King. I'm sure he's a good man in general, but he would be too much of a politico (one way or the other) and would alienate half the country.Highly doubt IV is even around to accept the position. The argument that he is partisan feels a bit strange coming from a republican. Do we think that an elected head of state would not be "a politico"? At the very least we know he wouldn't be elected because of any political dealings or campaigning.
QuoteIf either were to be elected appropriately, that would be a different matter.How so? Would they be more inclined to be a King for all Talossans if they were elected for partisan reasons?
QuoteTo have any sort of seniority system could conceivably allow the infamous Daviu Ardit to make a return, putting him first in line to the throne.No. This couldn't happen if its done as described here.
QuoteHe would be trumped, though, by a potential resurgent G. Conâ who would be too much of a Ben-partisan.No. This couldn't happen if its done as described here. Also there are no Ben-partisans in Talossa anymore. This is ancient history at this point.
QuoteGjermund would be fine, but a seniority system would be manipulated in the future to make sure one faction's people by a future rogue SoS would be naturalized one day earlier than those who would lean to another faction.That would mean two prospectives at the same time and then the sos would somehow already know their political affiliation and then for it to work they have to assume both of them stick around for 15 or 20 or 30 years and both will want to be King and at that point in time still have the same political views as when they just arrived as a prospective that still match with the political views of the SoS. Seems a bit farfetched no?
QuoteConceivably, Ben Madison himself could convince enough of the country to allow him back in, making him the next monarch.No. This couldn't happen if its done as described here. Also didn't he try this before and got a resounding no? Also he would immediately be removed.
