So, we have contested elections for the first time in a while, and you are probably asking the above question. Well, here are some answers to that question (other than PIE.... That one should be obvious).
1. Workshops- I plan to work with the artisans in our kingdom to host an Arts and Science Workshop each month at the Kingdom Allthing. This will allow the local teacher to share their skill with people from all over the Kingdom.
2. Improving Communications- I hope to improve communications between the members of the Kingdom by starting a Discussion Thread at least once a month on topics ranging from how we can improve the competition in our kingdom to what makes a good feast.
3. Reign-long Program- I have developed a competition that will run the entirety of the reign, and is designed to help inspire the lands of the Kingdom to continue to recruit, participate, and develop their lands during what can be a hard time to stay motivate when it gets cold. The competition is based on the game Civilization, and will have 5 categories for the lands to compete in, with winners in each category and an Overall winner. Rules for the competition below:
