Yes, I did. I even said so in my message of January the 10th. Could just Scouse confirm he received it ?

oops..should have waited for Scouse..sorry.


Scandal Rocks Perfection City

Government corruption finally brought down the old Republic.In what is being called “Buffalo Gate”,government corruption was seen at it’s worst.It was learned that government officials, acting on behalf of the Consul, have been skimming millions and using it almost extensively to support the prostitutes of Buffalo Girl’s.Wild tales of drug and alchohol induced orgies are emerging daily.The apparent aim of this gross waste was to make a personal playground for the Consul,top officials and visiting dignitaries.
Massive protest has followed the shocking revelations.Millions across the empire took to the streets to call for the removal of the Consul.

Senate Oust’s Consul
In an expected move,the Senate passed a resolution to immediately remove the Consul.The move was passed by a vote of 99-1.Only the Vice Consul voted nay.

The Senate also passed legislation authorizing a complete investigation into Buffalo Gate.A committee was approved and the process of subpeona began.

Elections Announced
Bowing to public pressure,the Senate announced free elections would be held taking that final step towards Democracy.Several prominent citizens have emerged as Presidential contenders including the great,great,great,great grandson of the legendary Smashazuma.
Known only as Hank,he confirmed that he had been approached by the Democratic National Libertarian Republican Conservative Liberal Party and would most likely accept the nomination.

Hank Wins!!
After a bitter 3 day campaign made possible by the new SoL voting machine,Hank won the Presidency handily.Following all the polls,the Democratic National Libertarian Republican Conservative Liberal candidate swept into power with a huge 527 electoral college vote victory while capturing 67% of the popular vote.

Hank:
“I’m honored and privileged.Lets have a holiday!Lets have a month of holidays!!Go party and make babies”


Population Explodes in Perfection City
Apparently the citizens of the capitol took the new leader’s words to heart as census results reported the city’s population had reached 2.3 million.Nationwide census yeilded 9,690,000 making us the most populace nation.


Crete Sacked by Renegades
The distant outpost was mercilessly attacked and captured by renegades led by Attilla the Hun.President Hank has pledged to end the slaughter that has plagued the nation for centuries.Special envoys were sent to various outposts to help shore up defenses.

Electricity Discovered
Governement scientists have announced the discovery of a wonderous new source of power.It is beleived that this new fuel will change the world.

President Hank Re-Elected
Capturing every Electoral College vote,the President was given a huge mandate for his 2nd term.Only the fringe Green Anti-Owl/Whale Enviromentalists managed to maintain official party status having received a surprising 12% of the popular vote.They showed strongest in the mid-west particularly Kansas.Hank’s big mega projects that were part of the week long campaign rhetoric look to be a go.Most notably the damming of the Colorado River and the Ship Chain to Germany.

Mega Project Groundbreaking
The start of construction of the Hoover Dam was marked with groundbreaking ceremonies attended by the first family and senior Interior Department officials.When completed,the dam will provide power to all cities fulfilling the new need for electricity.

Exports Up
Exports to Germany continued to drive the economy.Economists are applauding President Hank’s plan of a “ship chain”.A huge trade surplus is anticipated.

Hoover Dam Opened
2 years after work began,the dam’s hydro turbines went online without incident.Cities began to light up within the week.

Big $$ for Military
The new budget had a wopping 15% increase for the military.Every member of all the service branchs were given new equipment.The vast majority reported to be extremely pleased with the increased firepower.The only exception was the Navy,where officers were reporting continued difficulty of former ironclad crews taking to their new destroyers.Publicly they praised the new engine system and sleek new profile but privately they questioned the effectiveness of the new vessels.

Hank Assassinated
A fringe group calling itself Freedom For Oppression claimed responsibility for the blast that killed President Hank while he visited his favorite restaurant.Fortunately the restaurant was cleared for the President’s daily visit but several McDonalds employees and a secret service agent received minor injuries during the explosion.The F.B.I. confirmed the bomb was encased in a Big Mac.It was triggered by bite pressure according to Bureau experts.
“Took his head clean off”

When in the course of human events it becomes self-evident that a people should rule
themselves and rise above all other nations, taking the position of pre-eminence in the
world, there can be no other choice than take that position, to rule the world, to become
the nation among all other nations. Such was the choice laid before our great
nation.

This was made easier by the overflowing coffers of the treasury. 8000 plus gold coins
at our disposal. And yet, let it never be forgotten that “the love of money is the root
of all evil.” Upon succeeding the beloved Hank at his death, the new leader, kcbob,
was overwhelmed by the amount of gold in his control. Add to that the fact that his
predecessor had placed caravans at the very doorstep of the Germans which in turn
produced even more gold and it is no wonder that kcbob became known as
kcbob, the miser, unwilling to part with any of his precious coinage.

Eight times! Eight times a caravan was delivered to Leipzig with a resulting
increase in our treasury of over 1700 gold coins. Five times over 500 gold! 900 gold
from huts! Gold! Gold!! Gold!!!

And yet, in spite of this mental roadblock, kcbob was still somewhat mindful of his
duty to his people. He began a program of building the likes of which the world had
never seen. Factories were begun in a multitude of cities so as to further productivity
amongst the people. Discoveries were made. Genetic Engineering. Steel. Communism.
Espionage. Machine Tools. Refining. Miniaturization. Combustion. Automobile.
Progress never before seen in the world was being made. New cities were founded.
Fug-ow-wee. Zinderneuf. Advanced Tribe. Emerald City. Amoco.

And then, the unthinkable, the unspeakable, happened. On December 7, 1800, Germany
attacked! In the resulting mayhem, Konigsberg and Berlin were subverted and won over
to the glory of the Yellow. Unfortunately, during this time, kcbob showed his complete
lack of mastery of naval matters and the transport chain. It is feared it has been irreparably
damaged for all time.

And then, after peace had been reached with the German people, after the treasury had
grown to over 20,000 in gold, just when he thought the world would be his, a few little
old ladies in Florida began to quibble over a swinging chad and the next thing he knew,
kcbob was out of a job. Voted out of office, forced to leave behind all of that lovely
gold, kcbob went into retirement to write his memoirs. Watch for him soon on an
infomercial near you.

20’000 Gold ! Talk about greed ! I hope everybody’s got my no limit add-on to get rid of the 30’000 gold limit. It could be a problem. Otherwise I should try to spend it all out quickly. Any spies near enemy cities ?

10 turns played. It all goes so smoothly. Next players will have to decide if we conquer the world with a war as a democracy or if we go for AC. The latter might bring the best score. Maybe we should just let an AI city … Our position is definitely dominant.

1814 AD. KJ5, the demagogic one is elected. The self-proclaimed “Robin Hood of modern democracy” had promised to see to it that the coffers of the nation shall be open to the street man and not only the politicians. In his unforgettable inauguration speech, he declared : “I promise you, we’re going to spend money : for the poor ones, for the riches, for war, for peace, and for anything else”. Time will tell if he was sincere.
Godhav’n founded. Chain of ships is suppressed because it “enslaves” the sailors !
1816 AD. Germans sneak attack us. What a mad Nation ! They lose a knight. United Nations build. Leipzig captured. Peace with Germans.
1818 AD. Frankfurt subverted. German frigate sank near Zinderneuf. Will they never learn ?
1820 AD. A spy sees that the capital and last German City, Hamburg has only one musketeer ! Destroyers gather in for the kill. Cure for Cancer build. Factories build in a few cities, randomly chosen, for as KJ5 puts it “enough of that advisors bulls***”.
1822 AD. Hamburg captured. Now, they have learned. Aufwiedersehen unser Deutschen Freunden. Numerous tales of Barbarians everywhere. Situation well in hand, but a few units are lost.
1824 AD. Mass production discovered. Computers are next. Crete recaptured from Barbarians. Everybody seems to ally against us. KJ5 declares : “I am a prophet only in my own country.
1826 AD. All is going so well that the parties of opposition become desperate. Everything KJ does, goes his way, they complain.
1830 AD. Belo Horizonte founded. Everything goes well, so well ….
1832 AD. Computers discovered. Mobile Warfare is next. Porto Alegre and Fort Dauphin founded. Wisdom is everything and a research lab is immediately build in Perfection City. A transport full of spies is approaching the core of the American-Carthagino-Babylonian continent. Other ones are heading for the Russo-Indian continent.
1834 AD. The times of election were coming. KJ5 the Demagogic One, decided to speak to the Nation. “Beloved citizen, I’ve spent lot of money and gave it to the one who needed it. I destroyed the German civilization who dared to attack us. I build factories and aqueduct to let population produce and grow. Our capable forces are now closing on our other enemies and soon the technology of Mobile Warfare will give us a definitive military edge. I’ve founded new cities and worked well on the land. We have 73 towns all prospering, and we are now a democracy of more than 22 millions people. We effectively rule the world. I could talk for hours, but I’m sure you’ve gotten it : I am the greatest president of the greatest nation of all time. It is why at the pinnacle of my glory I have decided no to represent myself for the new elections. I am the best but I cannot do better. I’m going to retire to my home to live in the history book as the perfect president.”
And KJ5 did just as he said, did not run for a second mandate, married his college long-time girlfriend and went on to live peacefully in a wonderful house with a view to the sea. Some say that he was less wealthy when he took office than when he left it, but as we all know, jealousy is the compliment the gifted and wise ones most often receive. And giving money to everybody includes thinking of oneself, does it not ?

We have never played a Democratic Sleaze before - it's great fun!! (but rather time consuming!!!!!!)
________________________
1834 - First turn takes two and a half hours, but we are now set for serious WLPD growth ...
The grand plan to buy Philadelphia is foiled by the damn Yankees going Demo! all eyes turn to Leptis Parva (Adam Smith) we need funds... slightly adjust tax-rate...
1840 - Senate support anexation of Philadelphia
1842 - the good people of Rusucuru (with Women's Suffrage) flock to our glorious cause!

Well, good folks, we have only played 5 turns, but we have increased the population by 50%, and have now invested over 10 hours in the game this session. We fancy buying Adam Smith's from the Carts, ship in transit, but it is now up to you ...

The doves stopped all aggression when I contacted ais.No real surprise here as our nation is very powerful albeit somewhat spread out with independent "provinces" running well.
So it was back to science.Self trading was accelerated and is starting to get fairly lucrative.1 freight to Berlin from Perfection brought in 924 gold and bonus.Our scrollheads developed:
Robotics
Flight
Radio
Advanced Flight
Recycling

with a few freights we could manage 1 tech per turn but I spent some time building up gold for infastructure rushbuilding.2 turns is no problem.

We are also in a perpetual state of celebrating.We reached 49,560,000 and counting.

Teayo was lost to barbs.Could have saved it but didn't think it was worth it.Sold off improvements before it fell.Bunch of partisans popped up though.

My wonder-like ship chain is decimated.Our trading partner conquered!Oohh the sting...

Its 1856ad and space looks good at this point.The ais have started to go Demo.We'll have watch for tech theft from now on.The Carths have allready been poking around with diplomats.

Rather more "so" than "an hour". But I know your story will be a good one, so it's worth waiting.
Game received. I will try to play it this week-end. It could be quite long.
I guess I am the one who will have to choose between AC and the peace-keeping project (aka “kill ‘em all”).

After a close fought election in 1856, kc W bob was inaugurated into the Presidency of the great nation of Yellow. His first action as president was to raise taxes so as to better bribe our enemies. The far reaching ramifications of this piece of legislation was dramatic. A town on the fringes of the empire was so upset with the new tax law that the entire empire went into a state of anarchy for a year. Fortunately, the good people of Perfection City had erected a memorial to the Grande Dame, Liberte, and all was well with a few months.

During kc W bob's first term, Rocketry was discovered, the cities of Advanced Tribe and Kaopectate were founded, and 500 gold was found lying around in dirty old huts. The most earth shattering news during the first term in office was that the Barbarians developed Bronze Working!!! Can they do that??

In the year 1862, kc W bob was elected to a second term in office. He ran on a platform of never again raising taxes. Space Flight, Plastics, Nuclear Fission, and Nuclear Power were discovered. 350 gold was found in more dirty little huts, 310 gold was acquired through various trade routes, the American city of Dallas was subverted, and the loyal inhabitants of Teayo were reunited with the empire.

As a new election was being held, kc W bob made plans to move into plush offices in Perfection City, from where he would continue to watch the empire prosper. A space ship was begun, the future looked bright, and all was well in the world.

Julius the Technocrat was elected president in 1867 for a 10 years mandate. He build more factories and more manufactured plants, went on with the space project and a hundred years before the cold war was wise enough to train some more spies. All was for the better with the strongest (by far) nation of the world. Julius the T. went mostly for gold to finance his building politics but took time to discover the Laser, Superconductors and Fusion Power. A few incidents happened but none of them bad enough to slow down our victory march.
In 1869, the Carthaginians declared war and sunk one of our destroyers with their new found bombers. In 1870 so did the Americans. And 1871 so did the Indians sinking a ship with a spy in it ! Our former foreign politic advisor is not very popular anymore.
The city of Didnotaskfor was founded also in 1871. Near Dallas, a single fighter kills all by himself 7 American diplomats in one turn ! In 1873 the Carthaginian city of Leptis Magna was captured and then a cease-fire was established. In 1876 Baltimore and the Eiffel Tower were captured. Peace was then established. Fools ! soon we shall send them postcards from Alpha Centauri.

At least the game would be more challenging for you.

I am not a good player, but would like to participate in some future succession game. Do you think you would accept me despite my lack of skills?

I think I can speak for everyone when I say that you would most certainly be welcome. The more the merrier. And I wouldn't worry about your skill level. We're probably all lying about our own skill level anyway.

After reading the topic: "Sure - count me in!"

BTW: How many more people do we need? The thread seems to be quite old and not many seem to be interested in a ToT game.

The SGs in Red Wine - Fifth go at KC Bob's no ICS Succession Game

The date is 1876! We have rarely seen such large numbers and are rather confused.
We understood that our mean and nasty ICS ways were to be surpressed for the benefit of those people that love PERFECTIONISM!!!
Why are we building Factories in cities with a production of 4 (only 1 effective) shields?

Where are the airports?
Ooops - the Carthaginians just declared war! Silly Carthaginians.

1877 - One round of celebration puts about 5,000,000 on our population - now lets play this game - REVOLUTION! By the way - did Grandma not tell you that you require a supermarket for Farmland to be of any use?
1878 - Fundy!!!! 39 + 8 + only 1 - 11 modules to go!
1879 - not a lot
1880 - not a lot more
1881 - Detroit turns to the True Faith
1882 - just two more Modules needed ... Global warming just round the corner...
1883 - SS Perfection 39/8/4 launched ETA 1894 ... Much purchasing of Mass Transit & Recycling Centres - doesn't seem to have much effect in averting Global Disaster!
1884 - Carthage & Utica fall to our fanatical troops (and money)
1885 - Girba sees the error of its Republican ways (and the Carthaginian fleet ceases to exist) - for the second time this game our avaricious eyes turn towards Leptis Parva ...
1886 - Baltimore, Leptis Parva (Adam Smith) & Gades gleefully accept Conversion - against the Grand Admiral's advice an assault was launched against the Carthaginian capital at Panormus - it fell to our valiant troops and Malaca spontaneously saw the error of its ways and joined us (for a small transfer fee) - Carthage no longer has a capital (or the wherewithall to purchase one)
