Just throwing some thoughts out here...I would personally support bumped SoEA. Maybe up to 3rd? I think it is an extremely important position, as it is the chief department on foreign affairs. That's really my only arguement for it, now. Thoughts?

I think VP, PPT, SoFE, RG, AG, etc. would be a more appropriate order. At the end of the day, this game relies on our ability to run it effectively, making those with intimate knowledge of process the most important in a line of succession.

I don't think Moderator General should be included.

I agree with Meeker on the Moderator General. At some point, it could be someone who doesn't care too much for Atlasia, but is just doing it for the sake of helping. Now granted, we'll probably never even get below PPT, but you know. Wink I also moved the SoEA up a few spots. I also took advice on some of Purple State's suggestions...

I feel like the Dean of the Senate should be higher, as he (or she if we enter the Twilight Zone Tongue) would almost be guaranteed to have experience and be a high profile member of the game, while a cabinet member does not necessarily have experience.

I would hope no one is plotting to kill a huge number of public officials from a fantasy game.
