If you aren't contacted by the PM soon, please just start doing it and let them figure out if they want to make it an official department. At least it will be getting done. Thanks!

I remember gopher searches like ARCHIE and VERONICA and JUGHEAD. I am old.

I retired years ago.

Milo isn't here. Moldavi isn't here. The first statement is for TP and Elegarth. The second statement is for BBD. We will repeat both statements often.

*shrugs* I can't honestly tell what you two are yelling at each other about. Seems to me you said And Eli answered you by saying in his patented Eli manner, that it doesn't matter what I choose. Then you said Which pissed off Eli because he had responded to your question. If the answer was obvious, why did you ask the question? Or was the question rhetorical? If it was rhetorical, why follow it with From here it appears that you are bent out of shape and claiming that TWP "Isn't open" because Eli smacked you around for being a smart ass about his answer. In TWP, we are all smart asses. We like smart asses. But remember that being a smart ass isn't restricted to just community members. You expressed your concern that TWP's revolution is somehow disingenuous or deceitful. Eli answered that concern to the best of his ability. The rest is just a bunch of smart asses killing time between work assignments.

I tried. I really tried not to respond. But I just can't help it.... Does that make you Eli's hat? I get that your loyalty is mostly to The Pacific, Elegarth. Here's the thing: There is no reason to be worried about a "coup." If the Guardians don't choose a delegate that the community thinks is appropriate, then the Guardians fully expect the community to rise up and take the Delegacy away from whomever is sitting there. It's their duty. It's the way things are in TWP. As long as there is an atmosphere of cooperation between the Delegate and the Community, everything runs smoothly. When that atmosphere evaporates there is "violence." But that violence has the inherent approval of the Guardians already. Revolution is coming, one way or another. Who is in charge of it is incidental.

Eli does not have a chill mode. One never has to guess what Eli is thinking. I believe the point Eli was trying to make is that it doesn't really matter what or whom I choose, if the community doesn't agree with me.

does anyone have a list of his puppets so I can ban them, if I see them? Also, probably a good idea if we make sure he isn't lurking about in this forum.

I like active. Active is good.

Welcome to TWP! Sorry for the delay. Been a bit preoccupied with Holidays and such. Hope you enjoy your time with us!

Sigh. I really suck at this. If IH ever returns, give him my sincere apologies. Instead of changing his masking I just deleted him. /me hangs head in shame

Being sick over the holidays bites. I'm sorry you feel unwell. The map is fun looking.

*offers Welcome box of chocolates*

Welcome to TWP! As always, Westwind has the best advice.

Could use it as a jump point for funzorz!

I'm having everyone post on the RMB and in this thread. If a person posts their answers in one, I will try to be sure they are copied to the other so everyone has a chance to see and participate in the discussions. From today's RMB:

I did my graduate work with a member of the corrective optics team.

The first essay question will be posed when the poll closes in a week. However, a preview for those who notice this thread: How do you view the relationship between the on-site (gameside) RMB and the off-site community forum? In what ways would you change things to make reality reflect your views and how would you help get the nations of the region to actively support this move? Remember there are no correct or incorrect answers. Just tell us what you think.

This thread will contain the RMB poll results and the essays produced by TWPs best and brightest prospects for becoming leaders. Feel free to comment. It's time for the next generation to shape TWP into the region they want it to be. From the RMB: I have asked the Ambassadors to publish this information as well.

Careful. You'll get chocolate all over the dope.

Welcome to TWP, Rockin' Al! We could always use more music in our lives. Make yourself at home.

pffft. You can't steal TWP chocolate. You can take it, eat it, roll in it, wear it as an attractive bonnet, but no matter what it always still belongs to me.

sigh

Welcome! It's good to have you here.

Welcome to TWP, Melo!
