| Message | OOC: I've changed the election of Justices from being elected by the legislature, which would technically infringe on the political independence to being elected by an independent judicial board. What this means is that instead of us voting IC for every Justice we'll simply choose them on an OOC basis. Since their are ten this will allow for one judge chosen by each of use and 2-3 who can be chosen either through OOC elections or by whomever holds the Tenno. |
