Hrm, this looks like an interesting game... however, I really don't have time to play a third long-term dominions game. Really. Quite too busy. Way, way too busy to even consider it. (I'll think about it.)

I would however be willing to create a similar site to the Yarnspinners 2 site, since it was not hard to set up and I have the server space just sitting there, begging to be used for Dominions related program activities.

This is a SPLENDID idea. It would be great if you would do this, puffyn. I would even vote you in as Chairman of the Wyrms (after you decide to join and pick a nation) so you can maintain the council site for the game. However, I would also be willing to vote for any other volunteer to run the council after the web site is up and running (Pasha?).

Alneyan is not going to play in the game, but he volunteered to be the Chief Justice of the Wyrms. He will set up the first turn and pick a Master Password. After that, he will turn the Fatherland file over to me so I can host and email the turns to everybody.

PLEASE NOTE: All players MUST have a password on their pretender so I cannot view your turns.

In case of disputes, I can mail the appropriate files to Alneyan so can use the Master Password to check for truth. For example,
Caelum: "Hey, I never did get the dwarven hammer from Vanheim in exchange for my vote!"
Vanheim: "I sent it!!!"
Arcosephale: "Wow, how did I build this nice hammer when I don't even have an E3 mage?"

We can also use the Chief Justice to make a ruling in case Pasha's fears are realized and the Council becomes too capricious. For example:
Mictlan: "I request that Marignon must give 20 gold to everybody since he is so filthy rich", figuring enough greedy wyrms will want the gold to make it possible to win the vote.
Chief Justice: "I rule that Mictlan must give 100 gold to Marignon for making a frivilous request."

My name was merely submitted for the office of Chief Justice: my candidature is currently waiting for confirmation in Senate. I fear that getting the necessary votes might prove to be difficult, so you ought to consider naming someone else to fill the vacancy.

All bribes shall be sent to the usual address.

The good news is that the French have a long history of corruption-free politics, and so no bribes will be necessary.

This must be very deep analysis from some archaic, New England legal journal which I never heard about before. Or it is lawyer/diplomat speak???
