Well then, since you asked. My only real thoughts are the matter would be to largely agree with God-Emperor in terms of exploring new ways to make use of the new in game mechanisms available to us. I know this is something Westwind has considered before - that we haven't fully explored the potential of the recent in game changes. There is good opportunity to be found in utilising them to better integrate region members into regional governance, and perhaps spur interest in the offsite forums if that is what we should desire.
I would disagree on one crucial matter though, which is the phasing out of the Guardian system. I fear that would be significantly detrimental to the security of the region. It is absolutely essential that a group of high influence nations be maintained to protect the region from both internal and external threats. The Guardian system is one of the reasons why TWP ranks as one of the most consistently secure regions in the game. We are perhaps not entirely stable in terms of internal shifts due to the power invested in said Guardians, but we are also invulnerable to coups and attacks by outside interlopers, earning TWP a deserved reputation as a very secure region.
