That's why we have to be in two places at once. Wink

12 hours 7 day here, along with terrible internet connection. Those worker revolutions never really affected us ~~slaves~~ researchers.

Historically speaking, those revolutions usually get people like you killed, so I don't think you want that to happen....

Things are getting better. At least they don't bury us alive anymore.

Did you know that there's a famous historical event in ancient China called "The burying of scholars"?

Passingly aware of it, as in it sounds familiar, but I don't know the details.

...Wait... *whacks Saeros with a broom* This isn't the thread for this at all! Out! Out!

"Order! Order!" Hits the hammer repeatedly on the wooden table.

EDIT: they buried the scholars and set books on fire. Nearly everything that wans't legalist (=pro-emperor) was destroyed. That emperor really liked to bury things.

No. And I can't be that bad...

Oh, yes. Yes, you can, Pravenstern. You can be much worse. Worse than a million... no, billion trillion... million dead rabbits humping each other. That's how bad you are.

Tubby, I mean you no ill, so I suggest you reread my first post about the system of councils before your character talks himself into being a fool. Iskar talked about regular meetings of the dukes of each former province. He did not even use the word governor in his speech.

EDIT:Since Tubby usually is far from being a fool and still did not get the point of my suggestion, shall I try and make it clearer?

Grandmaster Posts : 892 Join date : 2011-11-16

wait

So, as is usual, this is a result of misunderstood wording. You said "the dukes of these former provinces", so I took that to mean the dukes who had previously been governors.

I assumed you meant they would have a seperate meeting to the rest, especially seeing as you then talked about another council setup.

Subject: Re: Throne Room OOC - Archived Parts Tue Sep 25, 2012 11:28 pm

Setting apart whom? I suggested separate councils: The Ravenstern council will be comprised of the dukes of Ravenstern, Senderfall, Rane and Poinsbrukand together they will address issues that concern all of their duchies (i.e. former Ravenstern), while the Wintersea council will be the dukes of Windholm, Ravenstern and Senderfall and they would discuss matters that involve their three duchies (mostly trade and supply), the Fierdsvain council will be Windholm, Javiksholm and Valonbray, the Merchant Coast council Javiksholm, Valonbray and Nal Tar and so on and on and on. All councils are presided over by the king or an authorised emissary and meet regularly at Sarleon or wherever it pleases the king. Each council only addresses issues of the duchies therein and all dukes of the council have the same power of vote, none is set apart.

EDIT: Yeah I suggested a whole system of councils: The overlapping councils with the dukes, then subordinate councils held by each duke in his duchy to consult with his own lords bannermen (counts, barons, margraves, etc) and then councils held by each count, baron, etc with his own knights, baronets and patricians.

Sorry about all that.

No problem. Maybe I also explained my idea a bit too shortly. It is a common problem among mathematicians that when you grasped a concept, especially one you devised yourself, you are prone to assuming others will understand it right away, since to you it looks so clear.

Nobody's fault but mine, I just misread your post.

Shall we fight each other over whose fault it is? Wink
