Hey, everyone! Just wanted to let you guys know that a new political party, known as the BPP, will be starting soon. The BPP stands for Barrayar Plutocratic Party. This system involves the wealthy being more powerful than the poor. Similar to an aristocracy, but toned down a bit. Join! I'd love to hav e more people in the BPP.

CH, it is encouraged to keep political party advertising in the appropriate thread. :) Which you now have permission to start . . .

Barrayar does not have currency or an economy, and therefore there are no wealthy or poor (argh, that sounds socialist. It isn't, honestly . . . having a currency just sounds like too much work. :P ) . . . and all are equal under the law. But it will be interesting to see where your new party goes. :)

Well, what's Barrayar's currency in Vorkosigan?

Barrayar's currency is the mark.

Then use that for the currency.

(Why didn't you call this place Athos or Beta Colony or Cetaganda? Why Barrayar? It seems so Imperialistic.)

The issue isn't what we would call the currency. The issue is that it would be a lot of work to have a forum economy, and I have no particular desire to do it.

Because I love Barrayar the best. :D I was kinda surprised that Keita and Andro went along with it . . . You may notice I'm not trying to make it like book-Barrayar in here though. :)

I'd do it.

I think Alpha colony was a disappointment.
