OOC: I'll give a little more time. If we are but a minority of temples present the session will be meaningless.

What about WIT and NIT?

Huh?  Oh, whew!  I thought I read is as "Nit-wit"...   :D  <Just a joke everyone>

Please write those admittedly fun jokes in OOC mirror and keep this thread void of anything by IC or OOC to organize

Kasper,

I'd recommend getting the conclave session going if there is to be any time for it at all. Waiting for all players to chime in will simply not work. Even when there are interactive adventures there will be times when waiting for everybody causes evrything to grind to a halt.

Even its started and you are right.

A little problem between KoH and Diemed demanded my attention and I hoped to be on my way solving it before the session. However I have not gotten the answers from those two in that regard

I wish everyone could read this forum.

This is TRUE RoE style twists occuring in the Conclave.  If the new players could see what is going on, it might be helpful in understand the environment around them (particularly some of you Danish socialist hippies ;) ).

Apparently.  Good grief.  Was this player-initiated, or fiendish DM machinations?

Well I for one as a relatively new player find it completely frustrating that the office of Pontiff is so vaguely defined, seating order, executing body, who is chairman deciding order of votes etc.

In short I assumed the Pontiff is the Speaker and that perhaps was my greatest error. Besides that I simply have not the rl time to continue endless debates, intrigues and powergames set within a, to me, not too clearly defined arena.

I have consequently just resigned as Pontiff with immediate effect. WIT drove me crazy with great skill and the lack of support from the other temples really left me no option. The funny thing is the vote of confidence I had proposed seemed to go my way.

Apparently.  Good grief.  Was this player-initiated, or fiendish DM machinations?

Being slightly biased I would say DM initiated machinations!

Jon I will get back on you for this :P

You speak the truth

However I am a veteran of several political games; I have even won a few of them  :D

I have even been running some sort of Ideology live rpg over two weeks full time with cabinetpost, press and the. 25 players. That one was some years back but quite successfull albeit I refrained reruns due to the time constrains.

The game was made up by a friend of mine and me based on 20th centery history 1900-1950

Actually this is a very good lesson.  I am sure how well warned you were, but the Conclave is a collection of rivals, in many ways, Mhoried is the same.

Congrats....I've never won....but I play for fun not for win ;) and I must admit I had fun in the Conclave...even if you were forced to resign...I liked the way you wanted to act as Pontiff...but I think I was the only one  :D

I do not feel I was well warned but then again I may have been dense
