King William Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 Congrats on a successful election. Now...which one of you was the Donald... I think they're all orange enough. But I don't think I dislike any of them enough to bestow that moniker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Zigur Posted September 19, 2015 Report Share Posted September 19, 2015 I had previously been influenced to have a negative opinion of OSRavan but from what I have heard while on this side of the treaty web he is a good leader. Perhaps in the future we shall chat. Congrats to ODN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pingu Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Then it means it wasn't a popular vote. If you want a serious answer, you can consult our Charter, and learn which positions are elected by popular vote and which are appointed by elected officials, subject to approval by a different branch of government. We have checks and balances like you wouldn't believe. If you want the flippant answer, come to the Senator with flippers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have checks and balances like you wouldn't believe. If you want the flippant answer, come to the Senator with flippers. First of all, I haven't asked "Senator". I have asked the one who announced the election results ("Secretary-General"). Anyway, I'm not interested in specifics - who is elected and who not and why - I only asked whether the voting mentioned in the announcement was popular or not. From your answer I infer it was a popular vote. (Although I forgot to ask wheter it was equal too). From your reply I know that some officials are elected by popular vote, while others are appointed by those elected. The rest is footnotes. One more question though: why does ODN have "checks and balances" (and separation of powers)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One more question though: why does ODN have "checks and balances" (and separation of powers)? Why does every alliance in the game have a check and balance. So some random nut job can't get into power and run the alliance into the ground. That's why alliances have check and balance. Mine is the chancellor's in my alliance. ODN have the senators.

One more question though: why does ODN have "checks and balances" (and separation of powers)? I'll be sure to let the Secretary-General know that you would like his personal attention. However, if you care to read our Charter, it's all laid out there: http://orangedefense.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=26127 Since I oversaw the process of revising it into its current form (barring one or two more recent amendments), I dare say I know as much about it as anyone else in the Network. Alexio has given you a partial answer to the issue of checks and balances, although our system includes more layers than that, with a judicial branch as well as the legislative and executive. We also have an ombudsman with unfettered access to all areas to be the eyes and ears of the General Assembly, whose servants we all are. In practice, of course, the entire alliance is run from the pub by the Shadow Government, presided over by Viceroy Sponge's llama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
