In Hideyoshi's Memory

//OORP:
1) There are many forms of etiquette. Speak like a crude barbarian, and expect to be treated as one.

2) When speaking before the Shoguns - to allow the other person to save face.
Whether you speak to the Shoguns - or to someone else in front ofthem - always allow the other party a chance to make up an excuse to concede your point of view. Better still if you offer them such an excuse. Everyone KNOWS it is just an excuse, but it is vital to preserve one's honour.

So basically dont back someone into a corner - or you may well be considered to be trying to stir up trouble. The best that will happen is that the other party will challenge you to a blood-duel in space - the worst that will happen is that you will anger the Shoguns...

3) Before the Shoguns, anyone may speak above their station. The lowest soldier may speak their minds concerning their highest superior. Provided they preserve the face of the other person, they may speak with passion!

But remember - any protection you have before the Shoguns, stops when you are no longer in their presence. Expect that anyone you have angered will remember it!

4) This 'watering hole' is much more than just the Shoguns Chamber Room. The hallways are great places to plot, scheme, argue and even fight.

5) Petitioners are only to post here by invitation through the Diplomatic Channels. Unsolicited petitions shall be removed.

6) DO NOT PUT WORDS IN THE MOUTH OF THE SHOGUNS! Simple requests to speak are permitted, even to speak privately. But you are NOT the Shoguns, and you do not speak for him!
