...eh, I kinda thought a regent should remain regent and shouldn't have to be reappointed in case of an unknown absence... thats what the law sounded like... at least until incapacitation or firing of the first... I guess the law could work either way as it stands, but I kinda thought Regent was a permanent title that only occasionally had actual power.

[Nathan]

things are not always exactly what they seem in the land of Natopia

Long live the emperor!

[Brian Capelle]

However if you do go inactive what are we to do? Would you not rather have your say than let it go to the frenzy? I mean, I am going to be more inactive again soon so don't think I am doing this on a personal basis, it's just a recommendation that we view a law as such.

Oh well, doesn't matter, the new Constitution DEFINATELY insinuates Regent as a permanent position so whatever.

[Nathan]

your new draft of the constitution insinuates that, yes.

[Brian Capelle]

Never did I elevate it as more than a draft.

[Nathan]

your previous post insinuated such

[Tasneem]

well... what if he decided he wanted to chose another person? then a permanent position might not be best

[Brian Capelle]

Well I could see squabbles being problematic but... eh. whatever.

I meant to type draft, sorry about that
