    Well first, I am happy to know the format of the proposal is correct. I mostly hoped I had done that part right.

    Now, I see all your points, and honestly I actually agree with them. I was planning to adress second-hand books programs in Clause 4, in fact (somehow I forgot. Damnit brain). I was not aware of the practice of minor editing to resell copies every year was not a problem I was aware of, but in retrospect I should have expected it. As for university libraries, my personal experience with them has been... subpar, for various reasons; but it's definetely probable that I'm an outlier.

    At any rate, I understand that this proposal is not as good an idea as it seems. I will probably slowly edit it, to try and see if  can cover some of your -very valid- points. And at worst cse scenario, I can just make this into an issue... in fact, it sound like it would work much better as an issue. Yeah.

    PS: Btw, that's a thing you can do right? Create issues? I have seen names under some issues, so I assume you can; correct me if I'm wrong.

    You can create issues once your nation reaches 50 million citizens, yes. As with proposals, it's best to draft them on the NS forums before submitting them.

    I might suggest something...

    Have a Forum for ongoing Votes, and once the vote is complete (read the poll is closed) then the thread could be moved to a Voting Results forum that the members can see.  Since the poll is closed they wouldn't be able to change it further, but then they would see the results.  Someone (a mod) would have to be in charge of moving the threads at the appointed times.

    Completed votes are already moved to the Sacred Archives subforum once completed, though I've been admittedly late in moving the last couple.

  3. Looking for a deputy Speaker to assist me in Speaker things. This will mostly entail opening votes and other bureaucratic things in the event I get sucked into RL temporarily.

    Requirements:

    • Must be a Hall of Nations member.
    • Being somewhat established in TWP is recommended.
    • Organizational experience on NS is a plus but is not necessarily required, however, some organizatonal skill is required.
    • Applicant must also be able to understand OT when he needs to go to bed but is still up and doing NS things.

    Benefits:

    • Experience
    • The wonderful feeling of serving TWP
    • A small corner of OT's office
    • Unlimited virtual coffee

    Me neither. I personally thought it was a well written proposal. I didn't understand why everyone else saw it as horrendous.

    I know at least some were under the impression it interfered with their rights to banject nations from regions.  I wasn't following it very closely myself, but it seemed misinformation was the main cause.
