There's a channel in the Discord where you can request help with flag designs, and I'm sure several people in the region would be happy to help. As far as programs, GIMP is a good free image manipulator. Pixlr.com is simpler, but it can also work, depending on your needs.

Can we lengthen the voting period to 24 hours, rather than 12?

Congratulations to future delegate @Bran Astor. I believe you've definitely made the right choice, @Saint Mark. I look forward to the rest of your reign, and the dawn of our new squatchy emperor's term.

Dr. Lisa Kemp, Director of the Sensorland Space Operations Command, looked around before standing up. Seeing nobody else volunteer themselves to speak first, she quietly said a few words to her team and took the floor.
"Greetings, fellow West Pacificans," she opened. "I am Dr. Kemp, of SSOC. I'm happy that we're able to come together as a region this week and unite in the spirit of science and exploration. These are tenets that Sensorland and SSOC hold very dear, and they are why I am pleased to announce my candidacy for president of the Western Astronomical Union." She paused to look around the crowd for reactions, but soon continued. "Over the past 15 years, I have served as director of SSOC. I have overseen numerous Sensorian projects, including a manned mission to the moon, dozens of satellite launches, and several space shuttle launches designed to test the effects microgravity conditions on life. We are in the process of building probes, and as an organization, we hope to eventually begin the process of colonizing other planets. With the combined efforts of the many nations that will make up this union, we are confident that this goal is attainable."
"There are a few reasons I believe that I am suited to this job. As I said before, I have 15 years of experience as director of SSOC - that's more than half of the time it's existed. I'll be the first to admit that SSOC isn't the oldest or the most accomplished space program in the West Pacific, but I'll be damned if it isn't one of the most ambitious. Like my country, I am extremely committed to pushing the boundaries of knowledge and expanding our horizons. That's why if I'm elected as president of this union, its first project will be the construction of a massive research station to be permanently placed into orbit around our planet and be staffed at all times by West Pacifican astronauts. We will also research processes by which planets, moons, and other celestial bodies may be colonized with permanent settlements. I believe this will lead to the betterment of all intelligent life, and it will push our region to the forefront of astronomical science."
Dr. Kemp took another pause to assess the crowd's reaction. She decided to conclude her speech, hoping to appeal to the scientifically-minded nature of the group: "This union has so much potential, and I greatly desire to harness that potential for the sake of our region. Fellow West Pacificans, we have the opportunity to shape the future together. Let's work toward a common goal as scientists, as people, and as members of this great region."

Introducing the Sensorland Space Operations Command! This organization may have been established late in the space game, but it's well on its way to being one of the premier space exploration forces in the West!

Quite boringly, Sensorland uses English as its primary language. Esperanto is also used in some official capacities, such as the national motto.

It was a fantastic time! Long live the West!

While I've been a long-term resident of TWP when active and have a large nation, given that I've only just recently become active again, I'm not sure how much territory is reasonable to ask for. That said, this piece of territory on Aura was too nice to pass up, so, I would like to request it.
-
I still would like maybe more of an overview of the position and everything it entails, plus the time you would expect such duties to take. I'd love to be part of TWP government, but I do have homework and studies.

1. How capable are you of understanding other people?:
Sorry, could you explain what you mean by this?
In all honesty, I am pretty good at understanding people.
2. Is your understanding of sci-fi and/or modern technology fairly sufficient?:
I do think so.
3. If you don't know how something works, are you capable of looking it up on Wikipedia and sorta getting a decent idea of what it is?:
Absolutely. I do that all the time.
4. Do you have a Discord? Can you go get one? Will it be on most of the time you are home?:
I do have a Discord. I don't use it too much right now, but I would be willing to.
5. Do you understand Paper and Pen games or RPGs, the community depends on us to make them work and run them or run the people who run them:
I have a basic understanding of these, and I would actually love to learn more and start playing.
6. Are you at funny or at least angry in a pouting and slightly cute way? If not, can you swear in a way that sounds cool?:
I think I'm kind of funny, but angry, cute, and cool are probably off the table.
7. Are you prepared to always improve and help someone who is very triggered, to improve as well, even if they never make any sense or talk endlessly?:
Yes! I tend to make friends with these types of people, so I do have experience.
8. Did you feel endlessly annoyed by this application or was it mildly funny?:
Those are not mutually exclusive.

I'm interested. I'd need a little more information about what this would entail, how much time I'd need to spend, et cetera.

Hi, I'm Sensorland, and a lot of you might remember me! I'm returning to NS.

TO PD! A hero to TWP!

Hilarious.

Cool! Lower endo caps are good. I think.

I don't need to... go in the dungeon, do I? *shudders*
Odd, I never noticed the dungeons in all my months in TWP.
-
I think I fully understand PD now.

*Takes notes*
I accept the box of chocolates, particle P's shoes are orange, I am making myself at home in the TWP freak show, and I WON'T SHOUT!

Hello, everyone. I'm sure several of you already know me from the RMB. I'm Sensorland.
Anyway, I love the West Pacific, just starting in the forums, I'm also now in TWPAF. I've been around NS for about... 4 months, now.
So that's that. Any questions?

So ROLHEATH's gone? I never once communicated with him. Ever. Too bad, because you all seem to think he's great, and I trust you.

I'd like to mention that Bran is mistaken about the new DMoFA (unless I am extra mistaken); it should be @k1213693
