And might I remind you that he is a retired general, which translates into "Old Man". Do you want a frail sheriff with a walker, or a young vibrant sheriff like myself?

I'm assuming that he would be the Sheriff, but would have people working with/for him. Similar to how the science, medical and engineering groups will work as a team. I doubt it will be a one man crew.

Also, I think as a Private Investigator, you have a very specific (yet important) role within this group. What will you be privately investigating while not searching for the stowaway? Figuring out who ate the last cookie from the cookie jar?

The same thing any other elected sheriff would be doing.

I wasn't aware that we had any cookies along in our supplies. Did you take them all Raven? I'll be keeping my eye on you. Best not see any crumbs on your shirt.

Then you should want to be the Scientist, not ask to be the Engineer.

I am encouraging science through engineering. It makes much more sense to have someone with a science background as an engineer then someone with a construction background.

Why? Because we are going to Mars.

Actually if you could see me, you would not be calling me "Old Man". (this is from my interpretation of my ratings). I would look to be in my 40's maybe early 50's, very fit and muscular. Only my salt and pepper hair would betray my age. I have no doubt I could "keep up" quite well with my younger compatriots on this mission.

I don't think there's many baddies who would make a bold move to take a high profile spot. Depends on their character but I think most people wouldn't risk attracting the spotlight so early, especially if they're all on their own. Up to this point I probably have more faith in people who have come on strong to get a position like leader or sheriff.

But as someone stronger suited to being a scientist, why would you being trying to encroach on those of us who are engineers?

We need you where you would be strongest.

Okiecokie - I've got to go. I'm a sucker for voting patterns however trivial they might be at the time. So I'll vote to keep things close but won't vote for anyone who has voted for government building. I think there's a lot to be said for concentrating on science after we get a foothold on the planet but I would say that.

Yeah, I don't see that one. I'm a bit unsure where to go with Leader, but I think we need whoever we pick to be very upfront and forthright about experience and interests.

I think it is pretty apparent that we all started out with similar goals. A group goal to start production on a certain project and a personal goal to win a respective position in the leadership

Understanding my role within this group as a whole, I think it would be important to establish a governance model that prescribes my duties and ensures that I enforce the laws effectively and to the proper extent.

What we need is someone who can get their hands dirty and has experience leading. I can do both.

Also, I have more practice at making motivational speeches. WIN ONE FOR THE ZIPPER!

Narc already made this point, but I don't think that's an assumption that can be made. On one hand they could pull strings from such a position, but there's also going to be a bright spotlight on them, so it could be more difficult to sabotage things from the front rather than from the shadows.

I think everyone is failling into groupthink here and just voting for what was suggested at first. We all need to take a step back and evaluate our priorities before landing.

i think we are. People are evaluating what's been said before and voting based on that and when new people show up, some people are changing. Although I DO hope everybody checks back in and rethinks when they get the full picture

speaking of which.

yeah the space thing tips it in monkey's favor. and the bananas.

Based on chemist and "narc" being his user name, he is clearly Walter White.

Went with science research facility as Government seems to be a losing proposition. I still feel very strongly about having some order in place when we land. Hopefully our leader can establish that order without our main focus. I think science can help with food, weather conditions, help guide design of any structures, etc. Heck, we may need science and engineering to figure out the biodome.

I'd PM that to EF since we aren't supposed to discuss skill values publicly - and this isn't a traditional werewolf game so that's not a newbie question at all.
