I really think you're exaggerating the situation. The game in its current state isn't terribly exciting but it's hardly reached the level of absolute tedium. If we want to make it more interesting, the only thing we can do is try and increase activity, and I don't see what a new constitution has to offer on that front. Even if a parliamentary system were a likely outcome of a constitutional convention, how would that increase activity or make the game more interesting? If you want to reboot the legislative statute that's one thing, but a constitutional convention isn't really a necessary or efficient way of accomplishing that aim.
Well, what would you do then? I'd like to hear a plan to make the game more interesting. How can we increase activity if nothing interesting is going on? See, it's a vicious cycle. A restart would be something new. Something that could increase activity. If it doesn't lead to a parliamentary system, so be it. Just because it's the one I support doesn't mean that's necessarily how it will go. But my god, the Senate and the regions do indeed reach tedious levels when we have to constantly go through the books and amend or repeal old legislation. Part of that, I think maybe the GM system that we have where we go a long time without any particularly interesting news stories and often the news scenarios are impersonal and bland.
There's a lot that can be done with a new country. We can give the game a shot in the arm and increase activity by actually providing people with something new to sink their teeth into.
As far as my "plan" goes, I pretty much agree with Yankee. I'm not really sure how we can increase activity by legislative fiat. You can't force people to be more active. In the end, the only way we're going to see a meaningful increase in activity is if more people take an active interest in the game.
Also, how many delegates would attend this convention? This just seems like it would just lead to even less activity than currently exists by putting the game on lockdown mode in which only a set number of players (the delegates) can participate.
