Sup New Peeps... Llamas...some of the old people only come around e'ery so often and they try to catch up. ....I think the ADN's own hypocrisy did as much to aide the legitimacy of The Pacific than anything.

Perhaps your lack of concern is precisely why Elegarth is here. Also - I am not suggesting members of the NPO need be rooted from the ranks of TWPers. I am simply stating that it would be foolhardy to not consider that the NPO is interested in gaining as large a foothold within TWP as is possible, up to and including the delegate chair. Towards this end, I'd like to ask you Dark if you've considered Elegarth as a successor. If you have, then I rest my case. If you haven't then I feel that much more secure.

Time tells all. I've been at this nearly 11 years. I've been right more often than I've been wrong. In this instance I would love to be wrong. But common sense tells me I'm most likely right.

Elegarth - I do know the NPO quite well. I know their tactics even better. What has occurred today is neither a surprise nor a shock. If you would like to be personally offended by my comments that's your prerogative. And I disagree, this is the place to hold such discussions. If not here, where? As for Lazarus, I'm little concerned that there is (yet) another regime change. In TWP we have always drawn a clear distinction between forum governments and the sitting delegate. Lazarus can sort out their own crap. What concerns me is the decision by the NPO to usurp - or annex - a GCR. That concerns me and if you think it's offensive that I'm concerned that we have prominent NPO members in our government, nothing I can do about it.

Not sure who the "others" are you are referring to, but I think my point is that the NPO has been putting their fingers in a number of regions. Looking at AMOM's justification for why the NPO could usurp Lazarus tells the world that the NPO has an agenda to increase its reach as far as possible. I'm sure you guys are not blind. Come on now, that seemed to be an overreaction to what I said. What I am saying is that the NPO is looking to expand and what better place to expand than in TWP that has been led by the same team for years. As a former guardian (still I was presently), I know we are not blind to many things.

This is a concerning turn of events. As a note, a number of months ago I made mention that TWP (I said TNP) was not TP. I stick to that. Dark, I have to say that I have never been as concerned with our own sovereignty than I am right now. What we're seeing from the NPO is that their stance that "everyone's the NPO" makes it dangerous for every GCR in which a member of TP is in a leadership role.

My bad.... ...lol.....

Spamming threads is what we do here in TNP. ...On Topic, I hate alternative voting. I'm perfectly happy with a true pluralistic vote where someone can receive less than 50% of the vote and win and we not have to figure out who's the 2nd 3rd or 100th option. I also like real run-offs if we as a group don't want certain elected offices elected with less than 50% of the vote.

Yo. https://www.nationstates.net/nation=punk_daddy

Indeed.

Yeah, man this is just plain stupid.

I think in order to have the most survive and least dead, early on we have to cure the large nations. No offense to the 300mill or less pop nations but to truly impact our end of Z-day numbers we have to keep the Southern Eureka's and Eli's of the world with the least amount of zombies. I also think it's important to ensure that 5billion + nations focus on the cure, that gives us the biggest bang for the buck. With those generalities out the way, it's important to know who can be online and at what times during the day and prepare the missile squads. Coordination among 5 people can cure out zombies in even the largest of nations pretty quickly. But there were times when each of us was trying to do solo cleans which take a while once you get under a billion. All in all, I think we did very well and were very coordinated during the day. I think we'll need to do some more prep work in the future if we want to get to the top of the list.

Welcome to the freak show friend! Hope your stay is a good one!

I must be old, I don't even recall that BBD. Darkesia - nice words fearless leader!!

Welcome to the freak show!

WELCOME TO TWP! ENJOY YOUR STAY! hi

Hehehe...this is a nice one!

Good to see you as well. I'm doing pretty good. Hopefully in two years I'll run again. RL politics is definitely my passion. Right now, focused on finishing my master's and saving for a house. Lots going on.

Busy, but good busy. Working in a new area that's a challenge, but I wanted a challenge. Kids getting big. How about yours?

Haha, I am chocolate so yes, I've always got some chocolate!! Sending a shipment from PD over to Darkesia. Good to be back home.

I would like to apply to be a Guardian again.

I'm back.

whoa...is that really New People, like the real deal New People??? Yeah, i've been kicking about in TNP. Was being very successful at retired from the game by just being the forum admin over there. I was doing a da-- good job except some people didn't like me being retired from the game and an admin. My hand was forced to reenter the game on the TNP side. I then just reduced my activity to citizen, but reversed to a higher level (regional assembly member) but I miss this place...well, I miss the people. I miss being a guardian as well, didn't realize how much I'd miss that and commiserating with the other guardians. I've got to close down my region LRI, but I think I will make a return. Thank you all for the welcomes.

I miss you guys. That's really all I wanted to say.

I tried to cancel karaoke friday's once....I learned from that mistake...haha. Well, getting Dark back in the big chair should be nice.
