News from the Bedlam
Maybe some of you readers are familiar with the game Civilization by Sid Meier. In early versions you needed entertainers to keep your population in check. That is my basic idea of establishing a crisis network which can also provide support in time of need.
First, you will have a hard time identifying those who can help. But normally you can also use a mechanic – before any crisis occurs – to categorize different tastes and also different artists. We also need the information who are local artist and where can you find them. This data has to evaluated before anything happens. This information is crucial. You need the right artitst at the right time - to keep your population in check.
In case of emergency panic is always an higher immediate threat than any pandemic or other natural disasters. A pandemic shows its effect later, a natural disaster ends (F**ushima is an exception to this rule) – panic and violence normally go on.
So you have to prevent your population from panicking. In case of emergency you can provide soothing entertainment in a, depending on environment conditions, variety of ways. Keep them distracted, either by radio programs (internet radio especially – it is much easier to create a new channel here), movies or live broadcasts which can be received my mobile phones. Of course there is also an option to see the entertainers live.
It is important that everybody CAN be affected individually but that in case people stay in a group they have to be affected collectively. The artists are advised to include current news and information in their programs to satisfy the audiences’ desire for information.
If utterly correct information is provided or not is a different question, the most important issue is credibility.
The general idea is communication on an individual level, so that one line applies:
“Ein Mensch ist intelligent, viele Menschen sind eine dumme Horde.“ A rough translation would be:
„One man is bright; many men are a mindless crowd.”
We do not need a rampaging mindless crowd in critical times.

public servants
The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
