some changes

Some changes: First, I've removed the time restrictions on contesting for office. So, you don't have to wait to contest. However, there are now fees upon contesting. 25,000 to contest for guildmaster and 50,000 to contest for Archon/Vizier/Regent.

"My GOD that's expensive!" you're saying. Yes, it is. And the reasoning behind it is that if you have enough supporters to have a chance of winning, then you won't have any problem raising that money to run. Think of it like having to raise campaign funds. If no one likes you, you won't get any money and will have to fund it yourself.

Second, I've created Admin characters called Meletus, Anytus, and Lycon. They will be played by Gods in the same way that some mortals play Romeo and Juliet. What they are intended to be used for is dealing with customer service issues that have nothing to do with the God's role. It is, after all, a bit lame when Sartan the God of Evil helps you find your lost gold. They are not Gods, but you should treat them as such in terms of helping them help Achaea. If they need information from you, please give it. HELP ADMINS is the help file.

Penned by my hand on the 3rd of Sarapin, in the year 272 AF.
