[really, really Infinities] strange things are afoot
 
Brainstorm with me!

Working on a framework of the Fenspace Convention:

* The Convention is more homogenous here than in the mainline. 'Factions' based on individual properties don't exist as separate governments, to the extent they exist here they're more like, well, fan clubs.

* There's a few groups in the Convention based around properties that are more than just fan clubs - the Jedi Order being the biggest - but they're not their own governments or anything.

* The Convention is organized like a convention.
** At the top there's a convention committee (concom) which handles the executive issues.
** Then there's departments below the concom. Every convention needs at least the following: Programming, Logistics, Security, Health & Safety, Guest Services.
*** Programming makes sure there's stuff for the attendees to do when at the con.
*** Logistics makes sure that the venue is set up and runs smoothly.
*** Security keeps the drunks and the creepers out.
*** Health & Safety makes sure the attendees don't hurt themselves or others.
*** Guest Services keeps the GoHs and other rabble happily drunk (but not too drunk, I could tell you stories...)
*** A con may have other departments (Art Show, Dealer's Room, Cosplay etc.) but these five are the key bits for a barebones con.

* So the question is, how do we transform this model into something like a working government?
** Concom is the simplest one as the executive/legislative. Popular election for the concom, with overall executive appointed from within the ranks Westminster style?
*** What about representation? More Westminster style, each member of the Convention elect an MC maybe? Must discuss...
** The departments all need new names (except Security, which we've already seen in C-Sec).
** Programming's role is a bit murky here
** Logistics prob. the most important department of them all, responsible for everything from new habitats to the post office.
*** Fastest & most badass ships in the solar system, capable of regular 5G burns? The Fenspace Postal Service. FedEx can suck their drive plasma.
** Security, again something we've seen, takes up role half Starfleet, half army, half police, half CIA (that's four halves! That's terrible!)
** Health & Safety, not sure. Responsible for the general welfare maybe? NHS + social safety net?
** Guest Services, maybe diplomatic in nature? Dept of Foreign Affairs?
