You can't just claim something to be a emergency just to past legislation through that no one wants to be passed right now.

Why are you opposed to a 3 day minimum?

Forestavia wrote:Why are you opposed to a 3 day minimum?

I am not, but we can VOTE on it after the elections for the ministry have commenced.

We don't need to stretch the first elections for 2-3 weeks.

Once all the positions have been voted for we can sign the 3 day into law, but for these first elections 2 days is acceptable

Forestavia wrote:Why are you opposed to a 3 day minimum?

We need a government now. I promised I would bring back democracy but that won't happen if we keep delaying the poll

Any time the government begins to slide down the dangerous road of not being held accountable to the people, I will act. This decree is simply a reminder of that.

I'm not delaying anything. I have upheld our democratic way of life with a single stroke of my pen. You want democracy? Then give my subjects a reasonable length of time to vote.

For me it is an issue of hypocrisy. You say you want democracy but then my government shortens the poll length to two days giving fewer nations a chance to have a voice in this new government. That's my bottom line.

Call me a hypocrite all you want, it doesn't change the fact that we thought 2 days was fine. No one objected until you. If people object I will change it. But if you just push through legislation without approval it is no better than plugo making the poll 2 days

We are all b*tching about a time limit, this is truly sad, if someone did not vote on something, then so what? Welcome to life, stuff happens, and if someone says I'm wrong or says something like "We are trying to fix that situtation", guess what, you can't, we have lives outside of NS and extending polls means we actually have less in general

The reason why I issued the decree was because some began to object and I agreed with them. I do not intend to make a habit of issuing decrees willy nilly. That would defeat the purpose of our democratic way of life. I have done this today to establish my proper role as the region's Monarch. I have given the people confidence that I will step in if necessary to prevent tyranny of any sort from taking root in here. This is something that must be done to also restore confidence among the nations after I complied with the revolutionary movement. Today's decree proves to my subjects that I will not stand by and watch liberty slip away via minor encroachments.

There will come a time in the future when someone will test me and try to put up a poll that violates my royal decree. I will stand firm.

I am not violating your royal decree. Here's how I see it. We needed elections. I asked how long it should be. No one replied except plugo. Plugo set up the poll. You come in the next day and declare me a tyrant. It was a mistake and we won't do it in the future

I think the problem is as delegate and thus the leader of this impromptu government you are the one responsible for its actions, as such and unfortunately for you, you cop the blame when something goes wrong or isnt done correctly. Im merely speculating with that one

Naumadal is the only one who dismissed the lc, not me or lemon.

[nation=short]Forestavia[/nation] says we need to protect the minority. What about the majority?

Most people here are tired of big beauracratic governments and the temporary government.

Having to set up a three 3day poll for 5 positions means that it will take over two weeks to get the elections through.

A 3 day poll is understandable for most polls, but the starter elections to fill all seats should be a special case.

Forestavia's ruling is tyrannical. Forcing legislation without consent of the region.

He say's is an 'emergency'. By this logic anything that affects the region that he doesn't agree with is an emergency and he will use his 'emergency' powers to force any laws he wants into the government without any checks or balances from government officers or the un-appointed tmc members.

If this law is forced through by forestavia i will probably be leaving the region, as i don't want to be in a region where the founder forces unwanted laws on the regional populace.

My campaign for minister is still on, and it is my duty to protect the opinions of the people, weather that be the majority, minority or one person.

Republic Of Greater Cuba

This decision is worse then the emergency government.

The old govt. may have been inefficient, but at least the people got a say it what laws and such where passed.

What have we changed that people weren't informed about?

We have had polls about every decision that lemon made?

1. Poll about whos running for positions

2. Poll about proposals, au912 's won

3. Making a poll for govt. positions since the MAJORITY of the region wants the elections to happen and end quicky.

this is not an emergency, the people want the government to be established now, not 15 days later just because the founder thinks that 48 hours isn't enough time for someone to check NS and vote.

Forestavia refuses to allow the removal of the k reich embassy, which the majority of the people agreed should be removed.

Now he forces us to wait longer for a regional government, which was one of the main reasons the original revolt happened.

*riots begin*

One of the main prerequisites for democracy is periodical elections, and each election in a democracy is a time when the continuity of rule of law is put in jeopardy, especially when the former opposition party becomes the new governing party and vice-versa, because the ministries and government agencies have to switch their policies and because partisan hiring is commonplace. When the results of the election are very close, there is a chance of anarchy whilst the votes are recounted. After the 2006 Mexican presidential election, popular unrest with the tight results led to mass protests, asking for a recount, and the president-elect had to deal with a strong faction in the parliament that refused to recognize him, and with the contender refused to admit defeat.

On the other hand, monarchies are the most stable form of government due to no dilution of power and because the opposition has no real chance to become government, a consequence of this is that they avoid electoral turmoil almost altogether.

It was the thing that seemed the most likable.

Since Au912 and I were the 2 that had the most votes, we both think we should have a joint government.

You ever read the Hunger Games?

Joint governments lead to collapse, look at the eastern and western roman empire

Then yes.

I thought you meant separate regions in the game.

Let's time out before we make any hasty government systems. Haste = waste. If implement it now in desperation and then discover it doesn't work, then we go in a massive frustrating circle

you should have put it in your factbook when they where voted on then, not try to slide it in an edit after the votes where counted.

you also still haven't said why its needed, which i have asked 3 times.

Now that order has been restored, heres what I think

[nation=short]lampar[/nation], please hold off on the revolution. We had one less than a week ago, you have note even given us enough time to think up ideas to fix the government, let alone fix it. [nation=short]Plugo[/nation], you have been a massive help updating factbooks and such, please continue to that. [nation=short]republic of greater cuba[/nation], you are trying to rush change. Let it take place in its own time. I will take a more active role in this region though.
