I agree that the GM should get out of the business of producing economic statistics, cost analyses, etc. But, I do think we need some sort of storyteller to generate major events for us to discuss. Should we just assume that everything that happens IRL also happens in Atlasia?

Alright, I have two remaining issues with abolishing the GM:

1) I think the game could function without the GM telling us what events are occurring that we need to respond to, but once we respond, there should be some sort of results for us to evaluate. Will this responsibility be passed onto the SoIA or simply gotten rid of?

2) I agree that we don't need the GM for cost analyses but what about revenue analyses? If we just have to rely on speculation ("I really doubt that would raise enough revenue to finance x program") people will probably just ignore such objections and vote based on their own ideology. More generally, how are we supposed to formulate a budget without a GM to give us revenue figures?

Edit: Just read Yelnoc's post and I think you address both of these but I'm not sure I fully agree. Hmm...
