It occurs to me this comment may have been misinterpreted. By "this" I meant I18 versus I9 since Skye's outline was that I9 was for more intimate/delicate matters and I18 was for wider scale things, like Japan's tsunami. Most larger scale things tend to get debated in the AA anyway, so it seems to me that I9 would be used more frequently. |

At this point I think Ladd needs to just pick a group and stick with it. If its hard to draw the line maybe ask who WANTS to be involved and start from there? (And I only say that because I don't think some of the nations you've listed have spoken up in this thread which may or may not be indicative of their desire to be involved.) In any case, someone is always going to have a problem with those who are included and those who aren't and since this body has no true power the debate need not be dragged on for weeks. |

I've always been looking at this through an IC prism, we're just having an OOC discussion about how it would work. In holding to that, I think Lux's suggestion about Ladd just choosing people makes sense, since the organizations were Ledddneia's idea IC. The members should obviously have some merit to being there, since I get the feeling this is supposed to represent a cross-section of the most influential nations, not just Laddneia and friends, but it should nonetheless be Laddneia who picks the actual members. |

I agree the groups should not just represent Laddneia and freinds, but looking at the I9 I don't think it does. I agree that in the end Ladd should decide; (to stop it dissolving into a total popularity contest with a million posts!) based entirely on who the most influential nations, forgetting personal bias. I liked the way the community had a bit of say in the 9, just to make sure the group really was fair...I think that if someone thinks they are being overlooked and has a good argument then they should be allowed to put themselves forward for Ladd's suggestion; he always takes things into accounts. Then Ladd could decide after people have expressed their opinion (in moderation) So far I think Ladd has proved himself a very professional and mature RPer; this thread is a difficult one to handle, because you have to look at this forgetting all bias, taking IC into account, and letting OOC take a lesser role; you also have to make sure you don't upset too many people. So far his decisions have alway taken everyne else's points into account and been incredibly fair and unweighted; good job! I think it will pay off in making these summits truly representative of the IC powers and thereby allow others players to respect their decisions and see this is more than just another alliance...Edited by Leraq, May 29 2011, 06:03 AM.

So to clarify, must nations submit a short summary of arguments for membership to the group, or let Laddneia determine the final composition of the group? |

I think each nation wanting to join the I18 should post a small paragraph or two describing why they should be in. |

Do I9 members also have to submit a reason for being in the I9? |

I also take it I9 members are automatically in the 18? |
