Westwind

I'm afraid WECA has no intention of allowing any kind of voting. If that's the kind of Guardian dictatoship folks like....

I do beleive that's the case.

Harsh when discussing Biyah ? That never happens in TWP.

*I can see your signature Tweedy * At least WECA hasn't completely devolved into the nonsensical rhetoric of NS dictators long gone. But it must be remembered that this is only able to happen due to the failures of NS Influence. Influence that allows long inactive, slothlike nations of old, to control the destiny of a Feeder. Just look at the devestation of The Pacific, where no one is allowed more than 20 endorsements or face banjection. Thanks to Max, there can never be a challenge to Krulltopia. And so now we face the potential of the same kind of future for TWP. The unchecked authority of Influence. A 'Yin' with no 'Yang' to keep balance.

Congrats on the turnout for your elections

*sigh* "old-fashioned TWP values"....like the old fashioned Dr. in your avatar ?

Yes, but you were early.

As always, it is a honor PD. *tips hat* The Crimson Order was about changing the paradigm away from the entrenched players and inactive Mods/Admins that stood in the way of the future. There can be no dynamic gameplay in the GCR's without the freedom of opportunity for players new and old alike. I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying that. I can just imagine the love I'll get from TNP when they realize that they were fighting against North Pacificism when they removed me from the Delegacy there. *chuckles*

To add to the mystery, there is this thread in the NS Technical Forum. "Prepare Yourselves" - Official speculation thread And I'll add one more link, since it's mentioned in the orginal post of that thread (perhaps as a hint) http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=11345473#p11345473 So......is it hints of this year's April Fools prank ? Or are new features coming to Regions ? (oh....and then there is this new region: http://www.nationstates.net/region=regions_will_fall )

I used to be on IRC all the time. But I have a problem spliting my attention (dang meds), and multiple IRC chats and queries get to be a problem.

There's always the WECA Guardian proposal where you trust the Guardians to allow newer nations the opportunity of a shot at the Delegacy. But no democracy allowed.

I hate it when I lose a good post.

That's entertainment !

So ! It's like that is it ?

*nods* Exactly. It is a hybrid, the 'other' choice. A benevolent yet authoritative Delegate Monarch that can ensure the security and activity of the region, while also supporting and promoting full participation through democratic process.

lol, Indeed. There will, of course, be an application form to fill out and a full background check. We wouldn't want any WECA rebels infiltrating.

Just like The Beatles.

*nods* Thus, the 'Guardians-in-Training' program that Yy and I have been discussing.

Democracy always has it's place, regardless of the foils of game mechanics that allows Influence to rule over regions, rather than the players.

The follow advisory is being delivered and posted in our Embassies around the NS world:

There's always the New Crimson Order....

Perhaps......cooked up rather than mocked up by Dark's frustration and Eli's opportunism.

What kind of Fundamentalism ? @ Lexus - That was interesting. One moment I was a UN Delegate, the next moment I was a WA Delegate.

*chuckles* True, that's always a possibility. Wanna take bets on who he'd side with ?

Eli proposes we stay on the stale course of doing nothing. Is this what we want ? More of the same ? My Friends we can't keep dancing along Pretending everything is just fine The consequences are devastating We must strike out and rescue this Fine region within which we live
