The kingdom will be based on votes by users who post here and a succession system. These are the positions:
1 King 1 Prince 1 High Noble 2 Lower Nobles 5 Knights
These positions will initially be elected by vote of users. This is how the voting works:
Post 5 users vertically. Here's an example:
User 1 User 2 User 3 User 4 User 5
User 1 would gain 8 points, User 2 would gain 6 points, User 3 would gain 4 points, User 4 would gain 2 points, and User 5 would gain 1 point.
Whoever has the most votes is the King, the next one is the Prince, followed by the High Noble, and so on. The initial voting will go until April 15th and that will determine the kingdom for April 2011. This is how the succession works:
The Prince of the current month is guaranteed to be the King next month. The other positions are determined by vote. On the 26th of the current month, voting will begin for next month. Voting ends on the 1st of the new month. On my profile is the current kingdom.
King: GhostOfMatrix by succession. Prince: snowguy13 with 18 points. High Noble: murasaki9 with 16 points. Lower Nobles: pickpocket with 15 points and Koru7 with 14 points. Knights: EmperorPalpatine with 13 points, acmed with 13 points, Cenere with 12 points, Freakenstein with 10 points, and Patrick2011 (me) with 9 points. Honorable Mention: Roger721, Bluydee, and vinster132 with 8 points each, and Ernie15, jayjay9, and Jefferysinspiration with 6 points each.
Notes: 27 users got votes this time. Also:
Ok correct me if I'm wrong... But is it truly me in first right now?
@pickpocket: You said this before EmperorPalpatine made the last vote. At the time, you were leading, but EmperorPalpatine's vote brought snowguy13 and murasaki9 ahead of you.
You know what, I'm just going to make a general announcement:
When voting is inactive, it is not OK to influence the voting. There are 3 levels of this offense. They are minor, medium, and major. These are the penalties:
First minor is a warning. A repeat minor is considered a medium, and a medium is -3 points. A repeat medium is considered a major, and a major removes your ability to vote. A second major keeps people from voting for you.
Also, acmed gets a warning for a minor offense. Warnings and penalties are on the Voting Influence Penalty Board in the Kingdom of AG Forums section of my about.
