Oh shoot - I forgot Creuss’s tech in the update. He did do that.
4/6 reps in. Waiting on Yin and Creuss. (just making sure they know I don’t have reps in case they think I do)
Weird, I sent you a PM about half an hour ago, but it doesn’t seem to be there now. Resent.
Submitted my rep.
No spies.
I’m listing abilities of reps only if they still apply
Hacan - 2 votes - Huldran: each player that does not receive a pnc must pay 1 tg or abstain
Creuss - 2 voets - San Omairo
Yin - 7 votes - Rhal Darish: if Yin gives a pnc gains 3 tgs
Naalu - 1 vote - S’srool D’amil
Xxcha - 8 votes - Brothers Qquiar
Saar - 8 votes - Elder Saarig
Let me know if I made any mistakes.
Enjoy your bargaining.
So, what are everybody’s general tendencies? My votes are for sale. Anybody willing to offer my a note? I’m also open for negotiations the other way around. I’m waiting for PMs.
“The Hacan have been generous to offer you all a great deal on weapons and training for some infantry this galactic cycle. If we pass this bill we will all be able to train some soldiers at a significant reduction in price. The deal only gets better the more of that get involved. Our merchant princes do like to deal in bulk after all.”
-Mordae “Hacan Ministry of Foreign Relations”
{OOC} If we all vote for this we can each gain 5 GF. I don’t see how anyone really loses here. You may have to pay 1 TG not to abstain, but if you do, you are getting an extra opportunity to effectively buy GF and if everybody does it, then you will get them at less than half price.
Actual Vote counts
Hacan- 3* (1 from planets, 2 from rep)
Cruess- 1* (1 from rep)
Yin- 7 (4 from planets, 3 from rep)

Saar- 8
*The stars are the corrected vote tallys.
Can you tell I did that at the end of my lunch break at work. Thanks for fixing.
As I have no trade goods, I’ll be abstaining. I doubt anyone particularly cares to offer me a pnc for my 1 vote.
So, are we proceeding with the offering of promissory notes according to the rules strictly in order of play? If so, I believe Saar is up to offer a note or pass.
Saar - offer a Prommisory Note to The Yin Brotherhood
Hacan -
Creuss -
Yin -
Naalu -
Xxcha -
Yin accept. Saar, did you send a PM to the GM specifying which note is passed?
I just reread the rules. I believe the order should be as for other secondaries, i.e. around the table starting with the Speaker.
By the way, Saar wants me to vote AGAINST.
if anyone should need to go afk for a long time or quit, i would be honored to step in as their Second in command. 
Done
Btw: Voting is next step, so no need to go public yet…doesn’t matter this time, but it might do so in future votings 
Actually, the way you are forced to vote when accepting a note has to be publicly announced.
Confirming this.
I’m ok with passing notes out of order if you guys are. Assembly already takes a few days - I don’t see the need to make it take a few more. Argument here is in ftf it’s easy to jump in and say “wait, I’ll give you a better offer!” In pbf I’d really rather not wait 24 hours to see if anyone wants to compete with an offer… That stuff should be sorted out in PMs before someone public says they will accept.
I will be abstaining from the upcoming vote.
Hold that thought, PMing the Hacan
Alright, so looks like I’ll be abstaining. Are we just going to assume the agenda will go against? It’s been a bit silent on here lately…
