I dunno if everyone involved with the An Errant Venture thread has access to the Imp boards where we'd been talking about this before, so I figured I'd move things out into the open for convenience. :)

Now we've got the vote of no confidence out of the way, there are only a couple more items we need to check off the list before things are covered.

First of all, we need to do the nominations for succession. Each candidate will require a nomination for a second. Gallus Tagge is one of those for Delgado; anyone want to volunteer as the second? Also, to prevent this from being a one-horse race, I'd like someone to nominate Yuno Zora, the incumbant Prex. We can always use background NPCs to do the seconding, but it'd be nice if we could at least have a player character to nominate him initially.

Following the nominations, we'll go into a recess. The grand plan is for Delgado to convince Yuno to withdraw himself from contention so that Delgado is guarenteed to become the new XO; in return, Delgado will allow him to remain as Prex, and -insert various other bribes here-. Then we'll reconvene, Delgado will have his big speach that'll establish how everything is going to work, and we'll be done setting the scene.

After that...I guess we'll see what happens. Lol.

Hmmm I thought we were already voting on the new guy....

I can second Delgado as my Moff.... he's forced to vote for Delgado no matter what, since he was sent there expressly to do so.

I am so confused about what is happening in this thread right now.

Luckily, Gallus is very good at just doing what he is told (by Miranda) so.. :D:thumbup

Sorry, guys. Just read back, and can see where y'all are confused. >_<

To strike a parallel with the Phantom Menace, we've just done the whole "I call for a vote of no confidence in Chancellor Vallorum's leadership" bit; you guys just voted to oust the old guy, so you were picking between 'Confidence' and 'No Confidence'.

The stage we're on now is the nominations of replacements - the "Bail Antilles of Alderaan", etc part. So far, we (the Imperials) have been relying on the fact that enough people are disgruntled with the old guy for the No Confidence vote to go through without a problem. However, when it comes to the nominations for succession, not everyone has sold their soul to Miranda as yet. There will probably be a couple of other minor nominees in the background; however, the main two groups will be the "Imperials", who nominate Delgado, and the "Corporates" (who want to keep the status quo), who vote for the Prex.

In the end, we won't need to actually cover the proper vote, since the Prex will ultimately pull out of the race. However, everyone knows that this is a bit for power on behalf of Delgado, so the fact that you guys have so far been thinking whether you're picking Delgado or the "other guy" still fits. Just shows that your characters are politically savvy. ;)

Hmmmm... yeah but I think I'm going to edit Getar's post a little bit... and then make a new one with the vote. Just to have something to do :p
