Jun 24, 2013 14:39:36 GMT -8 Senator Cihlbar said: Enough of this. The Senior Senator Cihlbar of Mon Calamari ascends the dais of the speaker of the Senate Chambers, the Supreme Chancellor; Cihlbar uses a webbed hand to press a button with a small chime-- informing all necessary personnel: it is time to call a meeting of the Senate. Cihlbar does not ascend it such, he ascends as the chamber's Parliamentarian. With the would be agenda set, with only the first item set in durasteel, as it were: Electing a new Supreme Chancellor. With the Senator from Corellia termed out of the seat, it is now time the thousands of elected officials to choose a new leader. A new figure head that can speak to representatives at all the galaxies end on their behalf. A new leader to present a new vision to safeguard peace, justice, euity and prosperity across the Galactic Republic. Now is the time. I repeat yet again - I was never Supreme Chancellor. I was only Vice Chancellor. He's talking about Cam Onasi. |

Ryloth is represented, though the level of activity in the immediate future may be... non-existent... for a while. I'll do my best though.

Oh. Well, Onasi represented Rendili, didn't he? Or was it Coruscant?

I'm not really known for having a weak memory. If you were VC, then who was Chancie?
And at this point in the game, does it really matter? Did i name Koronov as that Senator, could have been another between the old and the new one being selected.
Let's move forward into the future. As a matter of fact, i still need a list of priorities from the multitudes of Senators who want to RP as the Senate and lead the Republic.
What are our RP priorities going to be in the galaxy. We can't just add planets and be like "look how big we are" what are we going to do? There are plenty of catastroohies, threats, possible diplomatic ties, the Mando Holy War effecting the people of the Republic. So much to choose from, what would you like to see as the priority.

Koronov, you're right, he was from Rendili. I'd forgotten that. You know, because all you humans look alike to me.
Will, you didn't mention Kor by name, only "the Senator from Coruscant." But it doesn't matter. We just need someone who will be active now. Perhaps you should PM all those who said they'd be Senators, and perhaps the Republic usergroup as well (if that's possible).
We need planets to be in the Republic that have active RP, and if necessary, require people who play on those planets to provide the NPC senator (by require, I mean tell them they have to, but obviously we have no way to enforce it.)
That said, political RP is slow anyway, without adding a ton of people, which is why we limited the committees to five (plus advisers to the military: your admiral and one Jedi). The Mando War should be handled in committee to expedite the process. If we have to, we'll run multiple things simultaneously (ie military and judicial committees meet while the Senate meets at large, with characters able to be present in more than one at a time). Whatever it takes to get the job done.

I will probably be off for the next week or so, but when the Senate calls to session, Belf'ima would nominate the new Chancellor on Crom'nen's behalf. If I'm not back by the time we get started, I give permission for someone to take temporary control of her to do this.

Sound idea. Another other thoughts? Any volunteers to serve on committees?

Economics committees, Health and well being committees, War council committees just to name a few. I would presume anyways.

We should only bother staffing and writing the committees we need for OOC reasons, at least to start. Anything else, we can write in the background (they're staffed by other, unnamed Senators, written by no one). We don't have the manpower to write out every detail of the government.

Military Comity
Commerce and Finances Comity
Judicial Comity
Those three seem most important to me. We need a military force, ASAP, if we're going to keep from getting sidelined by over zealous mandos/sith, we need the finances to pay for the acquisition and upkeep of said military as well as rebuilding suffering worlds, and we need a police force to keep corrupt bureaucrats in line.

I'm not sure if I'm being elected to a higher seat or not, but as much as possible I'd be willing to head up or at the very least be apart of the MC.

I say we have as many committees as someone wants to fill that position. Only make something if someone really wants to be that. In other words if you want to be in something just say what it is with you signing up to be a part of it.

We have IC reasons for committees-- that much is clear. and if we simply delegate those actions and political concerns as "background noise" to random staffers and NPCs, then there is simply no reason for you lot (ie the Senate and the Senators that comprise the body) and as for standing committees, Darma is the closest to correct.
Military Council
Judicial Committee
And I would not be opposed to an Economic Committee if anyone has the interest and understanding how the legitimate commerce works in site then perfect.
Standing fleets, theoretically, exist. We opted to designate fleets based on the region of which the patrol/protect, and i magically manifested mine for Mon Calamari in accordance with then fleet limits.
So, in that instance, I command the 1st Fighter Group, Outer Rim Fleet (East).
I would imagine, say the defense fleet of Coruscant, would be designated "1st Galactic Republic Fighter Group, Core Fleet." And someone like Corellia would be "2nd Galactic Republic Fighter Group, Core Fleet" and so on and so forth.
We are in possession of the shipyards at Mon Calamari, Fondor, Hapes, Corellia, and whatever else that I may be forgetting. But Idk about the ACTUAL commercial rights to the production of ships go, I have never concerned myself with such things that I considered "minutia" but if someone deems it necessary and appropriate, I beseech you to look it up the Regs and Rules. As the biggest non forcie goodie organization on this site, better do things by the books.

Holding the planet containing the shipyards (and therefore, at the very least, a 50% ownership of the Shipyards) is tantamount to holding production rights for the ships of those shipyards. That was one of the core parts of the Economic reboot. There are some wibbly wobbly bits in there regarding the Shipyards being separate from any faction and that you can't forbid anyone to shop there, but the simple version is, we can build the ships those shipyards build in Canon: Mon Cal grants us both Mon Cal cruisers and ships like the New Class modernisation vessels, Fondor grants us KDY designs like ISDs and the such, plus Hapans, plus Corellians, we're all good.

... Really hate to nitpick, sorry sorry sorry, but the Fleets would most likely be termed Battle Groups or Task Forces. So, going off your example before, "1st Republican Battle Group, Core Fleet", "2nd Republican Task Force, Western Rim", etc., etc.
Also, don't forget the Jedi Peacekeeping Taskforce which essentially "borrows" ships from Republic fleets for the purpose of intergalactic relief and aid, as well as being a direct assistance for missions where Jedi are the leading element. Technically, The Republic is (should be) relatively well defended, considering its size and scope. I think if each member world committed a "standing fleet", like suggested above, The Republic would be well within its capabilities to respond and react to threats at home and abroad rather easily.

I have a standing fleet. I believe it was last assigned to Naboo. I also have a fleet of unarmed medical transports and hospital ships, operated by a Hapan group sort of like the Red Cross.

Battle, Fighter, . . . meh, sure not married to it and don't have a preference.
And if I had an opinion on the matter, I would have said relinquish that "Special Jedi/but not really that borrows from the Republic/but isn't Republic" to the actual Republic and be done with it. It is an archaic relic of JvS 1.0 past and should be let go, or reconfigured to be used in a traditional sense. . . .but that's only if I had an opinion on the matter. :-P
