Remove from Track: James Fisk, Paul Hamilton, Francois Xavier Martin, Robert Brooke, Philip Reed. 

Also, Wilson Cary Nicholas shows on my Military Track but he is not in my faction sheet so not sure what happened there.  If he can be removed too that would be great.  Thanks.

Wilson Cary Nicholas died about 20 years ago and Ted never removed him from the CT Page! 😛

James Fisk gains +2 admin, +1 Gov, Energy and Trade

Paul Hamilton gains +3 Gov, Labor Expertise, Charisma.

Francois Xavier Martin gains +2 admin, Agriculture Expertise, egghead, expansionist.

So when the sheet was advanced, everyone's Career Tracks seemed to move...but mine.  My slate still seems to be stuck on Year 0 when everyone else has moved to Year 4.  Thanks!

IIRC, TMP didn’t do career track last turn, which adds that empty slot in year 4 filled with other pols. Everyone else has empty year 0 columns because I haven’t input their pols there yet

I understand.  But I have a vacant 8 year column too, and I shouldn't.  I also have a politician in the 20 year track that was just in 16...so the tracks moved up but my 0 year politicians didn't move to 4 year as they should.  That's what I'm saying.  Hope that  makes sense.  Thanks.

Your year 0 pols are people who were just put on the career track, i.e Van Buren and Birdseye. That I haven't filled out for anyone else. Relating to the year 8 career track vacancies. I went back and it seems that yep, TMP didn't do Career Track after that draft either.

@10centjimmy @Hestia @WVProgressive @matthewyoung123 @jvikings1 @Arkansas Progressive @Cal @ConservativeElector2Time for Ideology Shifts, Relocations, Kingmakers, and Conversions!

Kingmaker Asher Robbins (RI) will take Elisha R Potter under his wing.

Conversions and ideology shifts depend on which states are still seen as over-/underpopulated. I haven't found the current state on this.

Ideology Shifts-

John Taylor of VA from RW Pop->Trad

Benjamin Taliaferro of GA from Lib->Mod (party's ideology)

Samuel Bryan of PA from Prog->Lib

Benjamin Ruggles of OH from Cons->Mod (party's ideology)

 

Relocations-

George Rogers Clark from KY->IN (Alternate State)

Edward Philip Livingston attempts to move from overpopulated NY to underpopulated IN

Benjamin Gorham attempts to move from overpopulated MA to underpopulated AL

 

Kingmakers-

Philip Reed of MD takes on James Wilkinson as a protégé. 

 

Conversions-

Can do after the results of the ideology shifts/relocations/and kingmakers are done.  Thanks!

Over/underpopulated are on the pol data tab. Green is over, red is under

Ideology Shifts

Benedict Arnold II M --> C (Faction Leader ideology, faction leader has Leadership and Iron Fist). 

Relocations

Leverett Saltonstall I MA --> ME (overpopulated, same region)
Francis Baylies MA --> ME (overpopulated, same region)
William Jackson MA --> AL (overpopulated)
William Baylies MA --> AL (overpopulated)
James Lloyd (MA) MA --> MS (overpopulated)
Benjamin Lincoln MA --> MS (overpopulated)
Philip Barton Key MD --> MS (overpopulated)
Benjamin Edwards MD --> AL (overpopulated)
William Tilghman PA --> IN (overpopulated)
Henry Black PA --> IN (overpopulated)
Richard Bland Lee VA --> AL (overpopulated). 

Conversions

Idk if Hough is technically still party leader or not until the next leaders emerge phase, but I'm going to assume that he is not? It says the president is automatically the choice for leader, yet we've obviously done no rolls for it yet and don't really process it until that phase. Does Osgood become the Party Leader immediately upon becoming president, or is he simply the automatic decision when the phase comes back around? If he is the automatic decision, should he receive rolls for becoming the PL immediately upon taking the throne when he's elected rather than waiting? Does that not mean we end up doing it a little bit out of order? 

Anyway, enough rambling.

David Hough will attempt to convert DakotaCPU Daniel Webster (conservative). Hough has Debater and Manipulative, so his chance of conversion increases to 43%.

As he has Iron Fist, he will also target @jvikings1 Career Track David Porter (43%) (Pliable) and DakotaCPU William Wilkins (Conservative) (43%). 

As he is efficient, he gets one more attempt and will therefore also target DakotaCPU Career Track Charles Cutts (conservative) (43%). 

Finally, Hough will get two interparty attempts due to being an efficient party leader, both with a 43% chance of success as well. His first target is @matthewyoung123 DeWitt Clinton (Pliable) and whoever now controls WVP's William Temple Franklin (Pliable).

My interpretation is that Osgood doesn't officially become PL until the Leadership Emerges phase, since nothing is mentioned about it (iirc) in the rules.
