First of all, please chill a little. He said it was a WIP, so it is. Obviously, if we recognize them, they get a vote. If we don't, and they're not in the WA, tough luck. They need to do something at least. If they're not willing to go THAT far, they don't deserve it. Not wanting to join a forum, I can understand. Not wanting to join the WA is a little too far. Examples: Yy4u would obviously get a vote. Occidius would get a vote. They need education, too; there would be announcements from an unbiased source(say, the delegate) about the candidates and their goals. I'm not sure how not giving the people a chance to vote in an easily accessible fashion where they could not before doesn't concretely empower them, but hey, if you explain I'd be happy to see reason.

I have a bit of a problem with this: if your followers and Milo's followers are not in the Senate and Assembly, then the Assembly could just veto anything the Senate says, especially if Milo's followers occupy the Assembly, and the government would lock up. Don't worry Llamas, I'm still on your side

As you have seen, we are right now on some sort of turmoil due to the well intentioned actions of Darkesia and Llamas, to get some active government up and ready for the TWP. However, in order to ensure the legal hold of such government, and to prevent possible future issues regarding the legality of the elected officiales and actions, I'm going to try to sort this out to ensure the process is both smooth and legally compliant. 1) Both the Executive Council Act and the Name Change Act votes will remain open and continue, up to April 10th. They were opened during Holidays and as such, as a one time exception, I'll go ahead and grant a 7 days period for vote to be completed in them. 2) The current nominations and campaigns are not legally viable, as there is niether a Prime Minister position nor a vacancy for the Speaker position. As such, I'll lock them FOR NOW. 3) If both acts pass, I'll become the incumbent Prime Minister, but that was NOT the position I was elected for, hence I will tend my resignation if they both pass, but not inmediately, I'll instead do it so that I can ensure a proper election for Prime Minister is held, according to the existing law. 4) Any campaign threads will be reopened during the new campaign process, accordingly, as people who has made an effort to discuss and propose shouldn't see that disappear. Just put on pause to ensure all is happening properly. Please register any complains and the legal background for them in this thread.

*throws a llama carcass at Llamas* On an other note, good to see you Ele

Right now, It's in between Llamas and Pestarzt (Milo). Tsk Tsk. Vote for Llamas because if Pes wins, he won't do anything to help the embassies and ambassador corps.

Ah awesome. My attempt to recreate a larger version never got the damn colours quite right.

It's hardly an exit poll if you take it before the election starts.

Are you worrying about deadlock? I don't see that as a real possibility. Because legislation passed by the Senate does not need the Assembly's approval to pass, neither can really veto the other and make it impossible to pass legislation. Well, thank you for that. Glad to see it getting support.

The Assembly The Assembly would be handled using regional polls. Assembly polls will remain open to all WA members in the region, making sure that each person only gets one vote; however, votes cast by those who have been in the WA or region for less than a week would be discarded and not counted in the official tally, in order to prevent manipulation by switchers or people moving into the region just to vote before leaving. The Delegate will be head of the Assembly, organizing debates and voting to keep it from getting out of hand. The Assembly's main powers will be reserve powers. Rather than handle the day-to-day running of the region, the Assembly will be expected to serve as a check on the Senate's authority and to represent the will of the region as a whole, rather than just the forums. As most members of the region are not highly interested in the niceties of legislation, bills passed by the Assembly will not require their approval to become law. However, if a petition is signed by at least 1/3 of the Senate supporting a referendum on a bill, it will be moved to a vote before the Assembly; should it receive more than 50% of votes cast there, the bill will pass. The Delegate or the Prime Minister may move to recall one or more senators. In order to succeed, the motion must receive 2/3 approval in the Assembly. This. SOooooo much this. yeees. I likes much.

Look, I pay for these forums, I pay for this server, and I work a real job where I have to deal with this stuff all day. I'm not exactly coming home from work, full of zim to do more web development. I will get to it WHEN I GET TO IT.
