How am I supposed to get through to the devs, if the player correspondent doesn't pay attention. Is the top issue supposed to be an easy fix??? I feel that we are wasting a chance at an actual fix if we use our number one spot on an item that is already in game. Here are the instructions, again, on how to mail your citizenry.

1) add them all to your friend list, and remove any non-citizens from the list that you don't want included on your e-mails.

2) highlight the list by clicking on the top person, then hold shift, and scroll down with either the arrow key or the mouse scroll button, click on the last person, this should select all of your friends.

3) Now, click mail. Abracadabra, and I'm not even a dev. All your citizens will be emailed, and a significant chance to get something needed in the game won't be wasted on something that is already in the game.

I VOTE FIX THE MILITIA, believe me I know you've seen my posts

Or you could just send an email to "Citizens" and it'll do the same thing...

Great work Bajeezus

Yes, that's right. My friendlist is also constantly deleting the remarks and groups :/

I now use an Excel file where I have entered all my citizens houses, owners, waypoints, if they've paid certain fees we have, what their business is, if they are in tha militia etc.

I can sort this list, copy the names and pretty quickly generate a "to:" mailgroup (Citizen01;Citzens05;Citizen14;... and copy & paste it into the game. Of course it would be nice if I could manage all those informations ingame as well, but this way I can also send it to my council members etc.

One more small update, from my side, not the devs or TH. If you have a character on Test Center, you can see that there is still nothing in the Master Politician skill box. I've asked for at least a comment on this from the devs, if not a re-implementation of the multi-specialization abilities that were there previously. I have never heard why those were removed after being in testing, and perhaps we can get either an explanation or see those placed back into the Master Politician box until the devs get around to giving Politicians a bigger sweep as they have done with chef, for example.

well... someone stated (I think it was one of the devs.. not sure) it was remove accidentally.. hehe.. a lot of us are more skeptic about that

I hope that is the case, that it was removed accidently, because in that case, I'd expect to see it hot-fixed back into the game or at least implemented in the next update.

Like eltucco, our city is hitting the same problem. The mayor dropped his subscription but is still Mayor by 6 votes. We are trying to get it changed but we don't see everyone at the same time.

What priority is it on dropping players not in the game from political races? I'd accept a one-week delay for purposes of accidental droppage (credit card expiring, etc) but we're on two, our cloning center needs repair and we want to revamp the city map and so on.

Baj, at the risk of appearing impatient, its been over three weeks since you submitted our top five. Isn't there some way we might get something more in the way of a response? We worked hard and rushed to meet theirdeadline and provide them with the input from this forum. I knew we would have to wait, and I am aware there are other professions waiting for responses as well, but I would have to say I expected more responsiveness fromthe devsgiven the urgency with which they asked for this information from us.
