Dawn of a New Era

The DA doesn't need legitimacy.

Just saying this again, The Precursors will not be represented in the government, they will instead be the people that the gov sends when someone breaks the rules.

You're welcome to submit the Precursors as the army for the new government, once the assembly is created. However, you shouldn't just assume that your army will be the one used. This new government is a republic, and this the sort of thing that needs to be voted on.

They are a law enforcement guild, and they already exist.

Just clarifying, lesser guilds can have armies, they just have to have to rp the recruitment, correct?

[old man moomba he/him]

I don't get your point. GUESS already exists, and also had an army.

[Darth Woodrack he/him]

The Precursors are specifically created as a law enforcement group/ GUESS was created as a paramilitary branch of GB. GUESS is a subcategory of GB, while the Precursors are an independent guild that has the sole mission of maintaining peace and law.

Hear that @Ookla the Paragon GUESS is not a real guild, sorry for missleading you.

Lol, hopefully no one will put it as their "primary" then. : P

Really though, if I sent Archer a PM saying i wish to be counted in the "Bob the Builder Consortium"... would that guild then exist, whether or not it was created? Lol.

I mean if you got more than one person to be counted under it I think it would be able to run for representation.

[Darth Woodrack he/him]

@Ookla the [REDACTED], are you representing the Craftsmen, or another guild?

[Furamirionind They/Any/All]

Wasnt the whole point of running this through a mod to keep this secret? Lol.

Not that it wont be talked about... it will... but in general, I assume you will have like 7 people say they are selecting a certain guild, but only 4 will actually select the guild they claimed... or something like that...

I’m going to be going for the craftsmen. 

The DA doesn’t have a say, so there is no conflict of interest. 

[Darth Woodrack he/him]

Kay. Is it okay if I represent The Black Crusade, so they can keep their army?(If I get in that is.)

Switching computers. Give me a minute.

Let’s continue this in the PM, as it doesn’t really concern the rest of the people on the shard. 

[Archer he/him]

To recap: Don't choose the DA, GUESS, or Precrusors as your guild. I agree with the argument that if enough people join, they would become a registered guild anyway, but that'd be messy, so let's avoid that if we can. There's plenty of other fantastic guild options available.

And for the record, I intend to post the results publicly, so they won't be secret for long. The PMing is more of a convenience thing.

Wouldn't posting who's supporting who cause issues for people spying?

[Archer he/him]

It could. If they really wanted to maintain their cover, they could support the guild they're spying on, but I see your point. However, publicly making the names available ensures transparency. 

Edited December 15, 2018 by Ookla the Paragon

[Darth Woodrack he/him]

I don't think it would. Just don't support a guild that your running deep cover for.

[Karnatheon he/him]

If you're really spying that deeply undercover, you would want people to know the one you're spying in is the one you support, not the one you're spying for. To make yourself seem more legitimate. That's the risks of spying I suppose.

[Furamirionind They/Any/All]

Heh, spying then becomes much more "real". You are helping the target to convince them of your dedication, for the purpose of carrying secrets back to the other guild.  This perspective makes transparency, even less transparent to an extent... which is amazing!

[Darth Woodrack he/him]

More, 'real'? Spying is a very real issue! Just ask GB!

[MacThorstenson he/him]

I was wondering if my character, Mack, could be an ambassador from the newcago court, and still support his own guild. 

I don’t think that the newcago court wouldn’t be under control of this government as it has its own monarch.

What is the newcago court? is it a guild? In this system, you could even be chosen as a guild's representative even if you haven't submitted it as the one you want to be counted for...

Or is this a title or something of sorts?

[MetaTerminal he/him]

Newcago Court is generally accepted as a canonical but seperate RP - it has its roots in the beginning of the Alleyverse and is considered to have begun it. It will have a different governmental system to the Alleycity as they’re already a monarchy - as we have no power over Newcago, the Queen has no power over us unless we enter her domain.

[Furamirionind They/Any/All]

are there any other RPs that may have an ambassador to the allyverse?

[MacThorstenson he/him]

 Basically that, but it is acknowledged that the court takes place in the same place as the DA.
