Mint cash? Revalue the currency? Create irregularities in accounting? Subtly change the tax gradation?

I agree with Freen that it's uneventful and boring and even sounds wrong. I'm still waiting for a better term though.

AH. Thats better. :D It explain how your getting money's and its with our theme. Tribute would be common anyway. Newly conquered area, wouldn't be treated as nicely as the home country. So demanding tribute would work. Kinda like...pay us moneys or we'll burn you down.

Collect Tribute. I like it.

It's two words, but, meh, "loot" is all you're going to get with one, basically.

Why can't it be two words? And we know why we can't use "loot", so meh. Collect Tribute is the best thing we can do. Its accurate and works. Unless someone has a problem, I'd say thats our winner.

I'd thought Beatles had said he preferred one word, but it was one verb. That doesn't specify if we could have other words attached to that one verb.

Yeah, I like Collect Tribute. It has my vote.

Oh, I like it too, indeed. Put it to a vote, ask staffers, or just go ahead and make the change?

It was changed. Yep, check again. What do you mean it wasn't there until a minute ago? It's a lie, I tell you, a lie! We have always been at war with Oceania.
