I think you can either reduce the number of elected seats and make elections more interesting or expand the number of seats and let people be more involved in the cogs of government.

I am not really sure if we can really accomplish a game in which people are really involved and elections are really interesting.

I am not really sure if we can really accomplish a game in which people are really involved and elections are really interesting.

But that's how it used to be! For years!

But looking back and hoping we can just make it be like that again is, in a sense, far too nostalgic. That can be a goal, but everyone involved in any sort of recovery action must realize that, as Marokai said, we just need to stop the bleeding right now.

Our best hope to is to create a more exciting atmosphere. We need to freeze government and work on a new Constitution. I would go so far as to say that Atlasia should shut down during the next CC. All offices should be vacated. All citizens should focus on working to build the Constitution and recruit new members to join in on the deliberations. In fact, while the original representatives of the CC should be chosen as outlined by the recently passed resolution in the Senate, a system should be set up that continuously recycles the members, calling new votes every few days. This is how the Mideast 3CC has been functioning, with occasional dead periods averted by new elections for presiding officer.

Atlasia must be completely trashed and redone with a massive wave of participation. Focus on excitement and interest. That will lead, in time, to greater competitiveness, increased participation and more interesting elections.
