Comments:

: Pallando is the Helpful mage, always ready to meet, always ready to help others. Unlike some other mages, he is lacking in greed, and is not a cut-throat diplomat.

: Pallando is force for Stability. He is fairly conservative when it comes to changing major rules. He rarely does so himself, but is a keen observer of the changes of others. He is a reliable Arbiter when it comes to wielding Primus, and can generally come up with a workable solution.

: Pallando has an affinity for Earth, and would not appreciate this being decreased. He feels its solidity reflects the down to earth practicality and stability of his philosophy.

: Pallando is currently owed the following favours:

   * /MageHologram    :  +1
   * /MageKazuhiko    :  0
   * /MageKitiara     :  0
   * /MageSenji       :  0
   * /MageInquisitor  :  0

(Secundus - Air): Senji, as master of Air, proposed the following rule:
"A player who controls one or more pawn of Water is considered to control a additional number of pawns of each element equal to three times the number of pawns of water that they control, for the purpose of voting on proposals, and determining Mastery"

We have a conspiracy! Excellent. :-)

: /MageHologram agrees.

Does anyone have a suggestion of how to counter this?

Hmm, apparently not. 1 hour 30 mins to go. Your ideas here:

/MageHologram hasn't thought of anything besides the obvious: get Water down so that *something* else becomes Secundus, and then terminate that rule with extreme prejudice.

Ah but will that work? Between them they now have effectively 33A, 31E, 32F, 40W. Whatever element is made secundus, they still outvote everyone else.--/MagePallando

Hmm. Hmm. Bibble?. Scary. We may be forced to recruit large numbers of additional mages. Or, perhaps just agree to yield the Epoch to them if they'll agree to rescind that rule :) --/MageHologram

Large numbers in this case meaning 4. I am of course assuming that they're not going to agree to meet with anyone else other than each other... --AC

: I don't see why we shouldn't. We have Mastery of everything, unless you seriously rearrange elements, which would be obvious. So, by all means lower the strength of Water - we'll still be able to muster more votes than you when the rules-change is voted upon. -- /MageInquisitor (Who considers this an interesting experiment, rather than a serious attempt to rule the world.)
