Handled improperly, it will be. However, I do wish to hear Koussath's response. |

There shouldn't be any official weight behind it. If people in game want to make G groups, go ahead, but there should be no 'vote' on it. |

I can go with both sides of this issue. I had previously set up my natural resources and the like based on Greece. One of Greece's natural resources is petroleum... but they also make up 3.2% of developed European regional oil demand, while making no appreciable contribution to supply. (source!) Granted, not everyone that would claim petrol, iron, copper, gold, etc would also take into account the types of oil, production abilities, access to said deposits of resources, so on and so forth. I think that our mods and committees are capable of keeping a firm flow of realism for the most part as of now, but if we grow larger the demand on them may become incredibly stressful. Perhaps it goes back to what rarier (I think) said in another thread, very few nations are capable of being self sufficient. Even if they have the resources they may not have the facilities to refine or produce end product. I think I rambled. Don't mind that.

I think we need less abstraction, overall |

I will keep the G8, but I will reduce it to a G15, instead of a G25. I will make a decision from the following group of people. If anyone wants to cut someone off, please say so...

Perhaps we could have a EU-style add on where the Nerian Commonwealth (and UHAA in the past) are also represented but are barred from being able to host or chair? |

Good idea, but I think they should be represented by their nation(s) who will be in the group, so Neolantia for your commonwealth, and myslelf for the UHAA, etc. However if we accept seats for these alliances or chose nations to have seats on the grounds of their alliances then that is foolish because there a so many worthy ones and so few places to contest!

As for suggestions these G groups are pointless I beg to differ; I think they will be an important decision body in Alterra. It is commonly known that small groups provide a much better decision making environment, intimate discussion can actually happen, and people are more willing to reverse their opinions. These G groups should help the international community get down to some serious business. More over these bodies will provide a much needed environment to FORM drafts for the AA. At the moment it is hard to get any feedback for ideas you have, because in the AA any suggestion is just overwhelmed by OOC and IC comments as to whether they agree idealistically with the proposition. These groups are also chosen because of their strong economies, so these groups will be Alterra's first, and much needed, economics panel. As for allegations these lists are just OOC popularity contests anyway are ill-founded. I am happy to accept people's opinions, but I am basing my opinion on three and a half hours of factbook sifting and serious decision making...like Demoness I am also quite happy with the original line up. As for the switch to the below G15, I would agree this is an improvement: People who make it onto this summit will feel much more important, and those who don't won't be as disappointed. I mean getting on a 15 is awesome! ![]() Take a look over my suggestions for the G8 above, and check out this for the 15, again let me know what you think.... G15: (Again just a draft to look over...)

I agree, I think these summits will be very useful... The G15 line up sounds great:
