Sollux, t h I s I s n t the "be a pessImIstIc asshole and swear at people randomly" thread. "the kid has his moodswings, he will be okaie in a little while". "but what of other forms of rulership other then the caste siestem and democracie? i heard it was onlie a legend, but have anie of eiou heard the storie about the lost hive of Gribblework"? "on Gribblework, the eldest ruled, the eiou would respect their elders, and the elders in turn would teach the eioungers about life and the world. evrie time an elder died of age or disease, the next eldest would join the elders as the eioungest of the elders. and because there were no wars to be fought at the time, evrie troll got a chance to be in charge and change the societie as theie saw fit. because of this, popular decisions would staie in power over multiple generations, and unpopular ones would onlie last the few sweeps to took for one of the elders to die". "the onlie downside i can see to this is that as far as i can tell, none of us seem to be old enough to be considered an elder, so it would take manie manie sweeps for anie elders to die and make room for the next elder. perhaps untill that time happens we could have a lotterie of some kind? five trolls rule as the "elders" for a sweep, then one name is randomlie chosen to "die" and make room for the next elder, which can also be chosen bie a similar method. after a few sweeps without being an elder, eiou can have eiour nape placed in the pot again to have the chance of becoming an elder a second time".

I would prefer a capitalist system, and have the government have a pool of money. By buying certain things from the government, you would add to their cash pool. These things would be like rights for second story buildings, and such.
God I love capitalism.

I believe so, but with it being the wild there is more chance of an animal attempting to eat you.
I can attest for seeing my alternate ripping out of a basilisk's stomach.
