With our forthcoming election within the next month (i think). We need to get ourselves organized. As the Party Secratary it is my job to roganize this.

A few things we need to organize at the moment.

- Pacifist Cowards are you going to run for election?

- Election Campaign.

We need to organize stuff like Witty slogos. However we need to have advertisements and parts of our campaigns to reflect our policies.

- Policy review. Feel free to go to our policy discussion thread and add your won thoughts to our policies.

If there is anything else that needs to be raised that has not been covered give us a bell.

O.K guys so what are we thinking? as this election is about the individual rather then the party we must remember that shoudl two people stand from the PPP, then they must be able to voice their own opinions on things...even they they differ from those of the party.

However what I would like to do is to get down our key ideas, and then whoever runs from the PPP has them to use as a foundation for their election campaign.

So I think we need something about
Foreign Affairs
Internal Affairs
Recruitment
Activity
Areas for improvement (within the forums etc)
Security policies

anything else? and please do comment people, otherwise this isnt going to work.



CAN I ALSO ASK FOR CLARIFICATION OVER WHO WILL BE RUNNING FOR DELEGATE AND WHO WILL BE WILLING TO BE A COUNCILLOR/MINISTER IN THE COMING TERM, whatever the outcome

Well i'm running for delegate.

Our main security policy could be that we are continuing our development of the QPD.

Recruitment. I think we should aim to boost numbers to 100 to 110.

i'll add more later when i think of them.

All party members are more than welcome to get involved and participate in the election one way or the other.

I will be a willing councillor, but i will not be running for delegate. My ideas are as follows;

Foreign Affairs: Attempting to send ambassadors out to other regions, rather than sitting back and hoping they'll notice us. Further decommissioning of the Free Port, but retainment of neutral policies with regards to the invader/defender issue.

Internal Affairs: More "big" role plays, fun for all, continuation of awards ceremony, attempts to increase % of region with forum membership.

Recruitment: Offering of incentives to good recruiters, sig banners etc. Maybe a new recruitment tg?

Activity: See RP idea, maybe cool under-avatar headings?

Areas for improvement (within the forums etc):None as of yet

Security policies:None as of yet.

yeah PC that's awesome.

also PC how would you like the immigration and officials Job?

Also if i win this and i want to know if you guys agree with me on this, i'm thinking of giving Joe Bobs the Foreign Affairs Councillor position.

Also one of my policies for internal affairs is that i think we should try hard to facilitate events that all members new and old can easily get involved in.

This is great guys, keep the ideas coming please!

As far as JB goes I think he would be great. However Bunnies alwaysn used to do a great job with foreign, and she also attracted a lot of attention with her great updates. So perhaps I&O would be better for JB?? If I am honest, if we win, I think he should also be offered the deputy person job, along with other duties, as he's the UOC leader and very knowledgable. I do also think the others should be offered ministerial jobs, that way, I know we will have loads in government, but we need the numbers to boost recruitment etc.

I would be careful about saying you want to boost regional numbers. Its a bit of a old idea and something everyone wants to see done. However you could suggest altering the recruitment system somehow which should in turn increase the amount of TG's and therefore the amount of numbers.

I agree with PC's idea about the RP. could I suggest that should you win, PC be moved to Internal, as he seems to have a lot of knowledge and interest in such things. However thats a mere suggestion.

I also think we should ask for animies imput regarding security, as he is always working really hard about it all, and he would be best to suggest further ways we can improve sceurity.

Finally I would ask for beaches opinions on the recruitment situation, seeing as his TG was so popular, does he have any others, or any suggestions regarding recruitment??

I don't have any others, i'm afraid. But maybe in the furture, i'll see what i can do. Unfortunately, i can't offer suggestions to help recruiting either.
If you get down to it, recruitment is boring work and there is no way around that. Offering medals and making a game out of it might add a little incentive, but i am not sure if it makes a big difference at the end of the day.
If keeping the region alive is not enough motivation to recruit, how can getting a medal be?
That beeing said, i am burnt out with this game. I am honoured to be offered a position in the cabinet, but i don't think i did a good job in the last term and don't see my motivation comming back.
I think it is only fair to let somebody more motivated have it.

Just a quick reminder as this was made an issue last time out. Changes to forum arrangement, rules and so on are admin descisions. Members can make suggestions and these can be discussed but they will not be done on a partisan or totally democratic basis. This is due to administration issues. That goes for all people standing but I mention it here as I read this first :)
Now back to your normal programme

Beaches! Thats a shame! but I know what you mean. quick question though, just in general, will you be willing to continue keeping the map up to date? as your so great at that!

@nev sorry thats my fault for not being clear about the forums. I was more thinking areas for improvement with activity, but I do think I was far from clear, and apologise for that

Here's my basic timeframe at the moment.

I will type up what i think are our policies and submit them here for scrutiny and alteration.

Once i have given today for them to be scrutinized i will release them to the public for my Campaign.

Along with my policies i will list my "councillor" list. however atm. the Position of Councillor for hospitality is yet to be filled. I'll try nad put someone from the UOC into that position.

Come Wednesday i'll start engaging with Joe Bobs in debate. i will find flaws in his policy and ask him about them.
