Ingame press F1 when you load your turn and then click on the question mark on the shortcut menu. The adviser will show up. Click on show me how and then your script will be running.
CODE OF CONDUCT
Battles will be fought against AI on VH difficulty. Campaign difficulty will be H to allow poor nations such as Numidia to develop.
CHEATING AND USE OF THE CONSOLE IS PROHIBITED! IF ANYONE SUSPECTS A PLAYER MAY BE CHEATING THEN SEND ME A PRIVATE MESSAGE AND I WILL LOOK INTO THE MATTER.
Long Victory objectives will be used. Winners will receive rep from other players; the higher your position the greater the rep you receive
To initiate diplomacy PM the player you wish to negotiate with and see if they agree to your deal. If they do then you are allowed to use forced diplomacy to make the deal take place ingame. To use forced diplomacy follow the following instructions:
Go to notepad and make a script containing the following:
script
declare_show_me
declare_counter loop
monitor_event AbandonShowMe TrueCondition
suspend_unscripted_advice false
console_command force_diplomacy off
terminate_script
end_monitor
monitor_event ScrollClosed ScrollClosed diplomacy_scroll
ui_flash_stop
suspend_unscripted_advice false
console_command force_diplomacy off
terminate_script
end_monitor
suspend_unscripted_advice true
console_command force_diplomacy accept
while I_CompareCounter loop = 0
end_while
suspend_unscripted_advice false
end_script
This goes in your C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\data\scripts\show_me folder.
Open Rome - Total War\data\export_descr_advice.txt and add in the following line shown in red:

Then active the script ingame by pressing the show me how button. Any diploacy you then initiate will be accepted BUT there must be an offer and demand or else it won't work.
Credits go to Decimator for telling me how to make forced diplomacy work.
REMEMBER TO SEND A PRIVATE MESSAGE TO THE PLAYER NEXT IN LINE AFTER YOU TO ALERT THEM THAT IT IS THEIR TURN!
Each player has 24 hours to play their turn after it is posted. Once this time runs out they will be subbed by any available players.

We, being mere mortals, are all minions of the great red-haired lady with long purple fingernails! 
Don't know how, though. We just have to use the power of the force. I see eregost just embraced the dark side, thus managed to control the power of Rome-hotseating.
