Duchess Nea, An older, well dressed figure with a wiry and gaunt form. A matriarch of the house. I cannot make deals on behalf of the keeper of our purse, but I find myself more than happy to bargain. This material is an opportunity, of course, and as moderator and councilor alike, I am... Flexible. If house Pinchay or any other house is agreeable, my terms are 3 coin to start, and if anyone else finds they would like to pay more, that's certainly fine by me.

I think three works best personally. I get the idea of wanting to split up the roles but we already have every dilemma rotation so hopefully it won't take too long for everyone to get a chance to do fun stuff, and folks can still propose deals and the like even if they're not the sitting council member anyway

Senator Nea No one wants to take the fall..the decision to build the windmills once more seems obvious. I assume you all can figure it out without our help. I think House Gambol had other important matters to attend to, currently.

I'm not looking forward to that, whatever it is. Nah. I think we don't have a strong enough opinion on this one to need to bribe someone.

Senator Sigh. A true dilemma. I always fancied myself a treasure hunter. I would love to go and explore the sands for gold and jewels, but it is not to be. I shall write a poem about it later. We must refuse slavery in all its forms. I propose to the sitting council member that house Gambol put in *2* of our own power, and offer house Cyfoeth two coins for two power.

How does bargaining for signing rights work, again? If that was a thing one wanted to do.

That Italian Guy posted:Also from the OP (section on bargaining): Right, I was just confused because I thought you had to make a deal with a specific person, and the leader can change during a vote because it's the person who spends the most votes, right? Or does that not happen under our rules?

Navigator I think we should take on the signing regardless of if it's negative or not, personally. I would like the credit.

Treasurer/Duchess Nea I'm of two minds here. I think improving the prowess of our military is a good idea and probably the a good move here. It balances the scales of being, frankly, broke. On the other hand, there's a positive sticker. And I, Nea, grand duchess of the sea, just really love stickers. Stickers are legacy games, to me. Also, I think it would be good to be having more medical knowledge. Our kingdom should prosper in more ways than one, and it would be good if we could make that happen. So I am leaning aye.

Okay but what if we did C. I do. I want the sticker. Treasurer Further reading, both of rereading the chronicle stickers rules and the dilemma, have convinced me that house Gambol should put forth a large amount of power to obtain the leadership role, but in accordance with that, Should house Pinchay still have their deal open we shall take it, assuming it is also open to Gambol. As well and in alternative, we are prepared to offer to House Daucus, House Pinchay, House Lethe and House Cyofeth five coins to signing rights should their house win. House Gambol would like to sign the card, thank you, and we are willing to make a big spend for it. Nea fucked around with this message at 01:20 on Jan 16, 2021 |

House Gambol Treasurer Oh, I misread their proposal backwards, I thought they were saying THEY would vote less if they were paid. No, what I meant rather was that Gambol should spend a large amount of power, and as a follow-up, I am also offering to make a deal for leadership should we fail to any other house. Basically I want the sticker. Of course I'm not the council member so like, yanno, I don't determine the power spends, but I was thinking 4+ Nea fucked around with this message at 01:19 on Jan 16, 2021 |

House Gambol Treasurer Indeed, that is why it would be preferable to gain signing rights first, however it would be a fine time to gather power later should we have to spend many power. Of course, should no one take the deal it's up to your judgement rather than mine for how to vote.

Treasurer Hey, Pinchay, Cyfoeth, but especially Cyfoeth, 6 coins for 3 votes on aye , eh? This is a wonderful thing, new information for us to spread, house Daucus is absolutely right, though house Gambol personally needs to spend some time recuperating our capital .

Navigator I have a proposal. I think my mate here is right, and the no is rather tempting. We don't want to end the reign of king Blythe here, so early. But... Knowledge is e'er tempting. And the coffers of house Gambol are so tragically low. If the collected houses of the kingdom pay Gambol 16 coins, we will vote fully on yes with all nine power. Otherwise, we will vote no. I've run the numbers, if we and Lethe both go all in there's no way for you to win this debate. If we go all in on yes, there's no way for you to lose as long as one or two power are spent.

# ¿ Jan 27, 2021 17:04 |

Navigator All houses but us and Lethe have 15 power, us and Lethe together have 18 power. So, no, I think you will need to chip in for our war chest if you want an aye.

Navigator Fair enough, I was being foolish. However, I will note that my house is /not/ opulent, and we would not thusly win the game, otherwise I would have simply voted yes to begin with. While your friend down the thread has offered us to pay for four power, given the only real way to extend the game would be to eat a negative sticker, and no one is going for what, i will fully admit, was an unreasonable shot to take... House Gambol intends to vote Aye with nine power.

Treasurer/Navigator I'm pro joust. I think we all need some fun little relaxation times. We can find new generals or heroes from this. There could be some sort of dramatic twist or turn. I haven't had Joust Food in twenty years. Please let us joust.

Treasurer/Navigator I really do think that we could use the time to enjoy ourselves here. We haven't been taking care of ourselves, the nobility. And, out of character, I think that there's way too many fun story opportunities from hosting a tournament to let this go by. I don't know what will happen ,but it'll be interesting. House Lethe, can I take your statement there as that you intend to vote aye? That is how I, personally, am leaning as well.
