  1. Region tag works, but the nation tag doesn't. It takes me to my own nation. Looks like it needs the 'nation=' part added.
  2. The West Pacific Treaty of Friendship, Goodwill, Cultural Exchange, Respect, Security and Military Cooperation with Equilism Signed this 6th day of July 2014 by Westwind of All Good People, Prime Minister of The West Pacific Imperium On behalf of The Marsupial Delegate of Bhang Bhang Duc Renegotiated and renewed by a vote of the Voice of the Union of The West Pacific, the 6th day of July 2015. The Allied States of Recuecn, Foreign Affairs Deputy Advocate on behalf of Elegarth, Advocate of the Union of The West Pacific Approved by the Delegate of The West Pacific, Mediobogdum
  3. The West Pacific is a member of the NationStates Republic.
  4. Let me take a shot at formalizing those ideas a bit, and see what I come up with. I don't see any problem with sharing interfeeder news on our RMB's. BTW, can a Mod split this from the Allies thread into a TEP/TWP discussion thread? Thank ye.
  5. Agreed. In my mind, COPS was intended as a way for forum communities to express themselves collectively about the issue of forum destruction, while leaving enforcement to the legal bodies and Admins of each region. A joint protest against such actions that respects the sovereignty of each region.
  6. I was Brain Salad Surgery, Minister of Defense of Croyance Province, PRP for a time...probably '05. I was also ADN Intel at the time. Was also General Jackson in TP more recently after joining a 'Pro-Franco' raider region. So what lead me to NS ? An email from my first wife. She sent me a link to her nation (I think it was something like "Queen Marcella"), with a note saying "I thought you might find this interesting". It was Dec. '03. I made a nation...I have no idea what it's name was. I quickly ignored it, because I was busy with the holidays. The reason that she thought I'd be interested ? I had tried writting a book, 'Alexander of Albion', got to around 180 pages into it. (later, my half-sister and I wrote some short stories set in that 'world') The book was based upon an old hobby of mine when I was a kid. Back around the early 70's I started drawing continents and developing nations on them. I'd have explorers arrive from other continents, establish colonies...expand and conflict with native tribes.....develop nations, economies, governments, wars......track populations, economies, trade routes, government types...... You know, the original pen and paper version of NationStates. (maybe I should have patented the concept) I also drew individual cities at the street level, kept track of their populations, employment rates..... I also wrote 'newspapers' on a manual typewriter about all that. I still have some of them. Still have some of the maps I drew. There was a Top Ten Hits song list that included a song called "The Westwind Roll". Anyway, come January '04, I clicked the link in her email again and decided to create a nation again, since I couldn't remember the first. (Her nation had CTE'd.) I wanted to name it Albion, from my story, so the nation has a story already behind it. Of course, Albion was already taken. My earliest nations I'd created on my continents was "Paradise" and "Westwind". And so I created Westwind, which has continued to be my main nation/identity. My original 1970's Westwind....It's history begins when a colony of scientists in Antarctica declare their independence, and then must defend themselves with superior technology to fend off the attacks of the rest of the world. The most technologically advanced nation on the planet. When the new continent of Pacifica rises from the Pacific Ocean, Westwind is one of the first to colonize it. I wanted to found the region of Pacifica when I started NS, but again, it was also already taken. (when I post "Hail Pacifica!" in TP, it has an additional meaning for me ) The 2004 Westwind....is modeled on the story of 'Alexander of Albion'. The RP "Tragedy in Westwind" on the Equilism forum played out a conflict loosely based on the book, between Emperor Alexander and his son, King Adam. Naturally, drawing continents and playing my own political games.....I majroed Geography/Political Science for my Bachelors degree.
  7. What she said. *runs off to take his turn at shuffleboard*
  8. 'Tis done. *runs off to pick the lock on the Liquor Cabinet*
  9. This Embassy thread is created for The United Defenders League.
  10. Thank you for spliting the thread. Sounds like overcomplicating a simple matter
  11. That would be the battle flag version.
  12. Oh, we need a new flag then...
  13. I'm fond of our flag, and being that I painted a Salish style Orca on the wall in my studio here, it has my support.
  14. The Native Registration sounds interesting. My first thought is all the intel agents infiltrating regions by applying to be a Native, and then wrecking havoc once they've gotten it. How about a Administrative option to set an 'Immigration' policy, that provides mutliple options (like an issue) as to how nations are classed in the region ? I'm kinda mixed on the Revolution concept. I think it needs to be fleshed out further before I could get my head around it.
  15. Well done indeed, thank you ! I supported Kandarin's choice at the time, and still agree with him. Got me in some arguements with some other TRR friends unfortunately, when it came to that 'seniority' thing.
  16. "Westwind, former everything" - Unibot
  17. Benevolent Yy leads his region with heart.
  18. Well get busy then, there's lots of work to be done. There's an army to build, Embassies to fill....
  19. As opposed to the glitter that burns greatly ?
  20. *checks inventory...ponders* Oh, probably still enough to run another delegacy since RL interrupted back then. Although Dali kept sneaking some of it now and then. *pours a shot for Neenee*
  21. Thank ye *tips hat* I've registered, and await Admin verification.
  22. I'm not familiar with it, do you have a link with info you can point us to ? Or was that part of the proposals at the World Fair conference ? I'm a day or so behind on that. I tend to support Astarial's proposals there.
  23. *chuckles* No worries. A mutual sovereignty defense pact sounds like a good starting place. Do you have some ideas for the text of a treaty proposal, or would you like me to come up with something as a starting point ?
