In a perfect environment, I would support something new, but it would never pass, so I just don't want to waste the time. Sad

Look, the only new things this convention thought of were European-style democracies, which are not only not as fun, but would kill the game, as most players are Americans.

You can change a lot without changing the basic framework. It would look very different, but still have a similar structure. Personally, I feel regional reform is the issue at hand, as we have a strong party system and the federal government is working well.

I generally agree with what Vepres and surprisingly Marokai have said. The only thing I don't like about Marokai's proposal is reducing the number of regions. I like the idea of rewriting the consitution especially considering that the SoFA has appearently been misreading the voting requirements(Days before election needed for vote to count), if he has been misreading it or misinterpreting it then I think its likely there are many other such intances scattered throughout the consitution.

I think it would be a mistake for this convention to end in failure. I would rather it produce something, even if it be as misguided as a European Style system(Atleast that would give me an opportunity to launch a nationwide speaking tour against it Grin ).
