I am in support of it. Sure the start of the month will be longer but it would certainly increase voter involvement and would help out @Crake who has been hemming this alone.

We could, but I don't think it would help much. The turn plan @Crake put together is the product of months of IRL discussion and speculation, at least those actions that actually involve disposition of our people. Stuff like military and economic actions are just logical extensions of our already established goals.

Not that I particularly mind, separating the vote by category doesn't particularly lighten the load anyway.

Shouldn't this be two years old? SD is just about to celebrate the 2nd year of founding in a couple of months.
Weren't these two dealt with offscreen?

That is fair. It is still a lot and it is filled with complex parts. We can't really simply the actions either. I don't really have any suggestions for this.
For what it's worth artificiers are among those most likely to worship the winged snake.

I think it's a good idea to heighten engagement, people have attention spans and areas of interest, this focuses both.
Both fixed, thanks.

That's part of the reason why I want him to do it. He actually IS a god relevant to said artificers.

I don't think that starting the month with separate votes for separate categories would make it easier on anyone, either.
To ensure every category is thoroughly covered, someone would have to make preliminary assignment of people around beforehand anyway, like I tried to this month.
As in, imagine us rolling out a vote on RAs... and putting so many people on them, we won't have enough for adventure/Intrigue?
But generally, I don't mind that approach, no. At least it will have people reading through the turn-vote more, and maybe discussing things.
...I hope I don't sound like that nebulous "tyrant of the voting council", which apparently took over most matters of importance and doesn't let anyone new in.
I just want to make this process easier on everyone and limit potential salt as much as I can
@DragonParadox, shall I get started on compiling MAs list?
Which spiralled into no less than 10(!) updates of squarely that along the line, poisoning some people to the concept.
And then also took up major amount of DP's time and attention to write up a bunch of "Unique" books...
Most which didn't ever appear on/off-screen not were relevant in spite of all awesome lore DP had wrote up.
What I'm trying to say is, please don't measure your participation in thread by "usefulness".
Trust me, mere shitposting would be greatly appreciated these days, with few people beyond core players ever discussing things.
Yes, really.
At least we can laugh at shitposts, and some of the best ideas in this thread actually came from that.

Mate, my first "contribution" to the quest was nagging at DP to have us grab books from a library.

If you want to sound non-tyrannical, just sound perfectly affable and agreeable to all suggestions to de-centralize the process.
Far as it goes, if you break them up by category and that causes discussion, you are already "putting power into the hands of the people!!"
In which case, what's there to worry about? Unless you're a tyrant.
If you want to sure, but there's not rush.

I mean, at least I tried to keep discussion going with the "prelimianry" assignment and actively engaging people. With some success.

O-Oh! A-Alright then, I hear you I hear you. Thanks though, for putting up with my... I guess 'newbie' attitude I guess, haha.
'Right, have fun. I'm going to have fun.
And to start it: @egoo how would you describe your avatar? A native inhabitant of the Far Realm or more of an escapee from Baator?
'Cuz I'm thinking of an OMAKE and it shall have some Core members of this Quest about Ser Richard and shenanigans. There'll be LOTS of fighting and it will be fun!

I'm fine with either placement for Zathir. But can we do more education ones withbhim in the future? He improved the SD public school curriculum this turn. Could he improve the Imperial one? And the Colleges. Heh, wanna put him on the press and MirrorVision?
Zathir the God of Education and the Free Press.

Definitely the former
Albeit few variations of it were Baator-bound, since then few "molts" have passed.
(And I really, really liked participating in WoW's Hivemind hunt, even if I sucked at the avenue I chose hard, hence the Void-brain).
Hmm...
Come to think of it, weren't there a few omakes/shitposts about Viserys' thread-schizophrenia, @Duesal?
I remember them being funny and insightful, but not much beyond that :/
He literally improved SD's Life Quality beyond the mechanical cap with his action.
We'll be establishing more education soon, sure- but aside from him feeling good for halping, I don't think we should get any more mechanical bonuses from that.

Mhmm? From a revised school curriculum and teaching methodology? I dont think we can copy it directly if he tailor made it specifically for SD but we did have actions to set the Imperial curriculum before. Why not have Zathir finetune it? And what did you think of the rest?
