Welcome to The West Pacific, Vak! Do you have any chocolate?

I am jealous.

Welcome back to TWP! Do you have any chocolate?

Hello and Welcome to TWPs off-site community!

I was going to try to post pictures of my grand dog (yes, I did say that). But alas, I can't figure out how.

A Gentle Annoucement from your Delegate Gentlefolk and Evilfolk of TWP... This announcement has been long in coming and comes only now because some people in IRC won't stop pestering me... I am honored to be your in-game representative and I thank you for your support and cooperation. I hope to maintain cooperative relations with the community throughout my tenure as your Delegate. I believe that as a GCR delegate I have a responsibility to pay attention to the WA, though I may not enjoy it. Along with that, I pledge to maintain an RMB free of spam and give the boot to any nation with an offensive theme or flag. TWP will, of course, remain anti-marsupial and pro-chocolate. However, we have softened our stance on both. We will no longer execute marsupialists out of hand, nor will we eject those that dislike chocolate. Our Guardians still maintain appropriate asylums for each of the types of the afflicted. It is my hope that the off-site community will reach out to the wider NS world and engage them. Our unique style of regional governance has proven itself effective and it's time we let the NSverse know about it. To that effect, I have made a few appointments to help bridge the gap between in-game, forum and off site communities: Most of you have noticed that Punk-Daddy has returned to us as a Guardian. We are glad to see his afro peeking above the cubicle walls once again. Please welcome him back! I have asked Fearless (Nation: ethel-mermania) to join us as a Guardian. He is a prolific Generalite and I hope he will be able to help us get over our terror of the General forum and perhaps represent ourselves there occasionally. Huanghshi has been appointed Minister of Scribbles. This position is responsible for gathering and recording TWP's history along with helping the MoFA with any articles and information gathering needed. Please stop by the Scribe's desk to see what is going on there. I have also brought us two new Ministers of Make-Believe. Terran Borealis has a foothold in the NS Forum Roleplay and ProfessorHenn has a handle on the off-site based RP. I encourage everyone to get involved with some of these things. Both ministers know that TWP is very new to the RP world and we are going to need lots of encouragement and help. Last but certainly not least, I have asked That Called the Vlagh to be our Minister of Legislative RP. I would like to remind everyone in the HGA that Vlagh has an uncanny ability to bend words to his evil bidding. Please use his skills to craft some fancy legislation that effectively outlaws legislation... or something just as TWPish. Please do use his advice. I would love to see some actual legislation by the end of my tenure. Oh! I almost forgot... I have appointed one Bishop. I may or may not have almost forgotten him because he is making me write this... Please welcome Elegarth as the Bishop of Sensibility! I should mention that current Gameplay is preoccupied with a battle of wills between a couple of our fellow GCRs. We will not be participating in that scuffle. TWP is strongly National Sovereignist and cannot in good conscience support either side of this battle. TWP hopes that her fellow GCRs resolve their differences quickly and without bloodshed. I once again would like to welcome all your efforts towards making TWP an active and united region, where new players can find themselves at home.

Bison is very good. It makes geat burgers. Better than beef in the same price range. I don't know why I didn't like horse meat. It tasted vaguely of liver to me. Perhaps a high iron content or something. Oddly, I like liver occasionally, if it's covered in enough mushrooms and onion compote. Anyone else find it disturbing that our thread on pets has turned into a thread on eating pets?

Horse meat is not tasty.

Welcome to The West Pacific! It is our greatest hope that you become hopelessly addicted to NationStates and play for 10+ years after your government class is over. My advice is to read the dispatches on the RMB as a starting point.

I love The Pacific passionately and I hate CN as passionately. That is all I have to say.

Nice to meet you! Welcome to TWP! You have arrived at an opportune time. I have just appointed a couple of Ministers of Make-Believe who will have the task of managing and growing our RP.

Thank you!

You are aware that Darkesia is lead by a female, correct?

/me sacrifices old Commodore 64 parts. Oh! Great Admin Types, hear my plea! Here's the list of stuffs I would like to see. My accompanying announcement will be published today. I have 4 special appointments. Vlagh has been appointed Minister of Legislative RP. He will need an appropriate title thingy. I think his masking is ok. But check to be sure he has access to all the legislation areas. If he asks for one, set him up with a private office for himself and the Speaker of the HGA, Prime Minister and Guardians in order to draft legislation. Terra Borealis and ProfessorHenn are to be Ministers of Make-Believe. They will be helping us with various areas of RP. They will need pretty titles and mod abilities in the RP area. Not sure what else they will need, since I'm not sure where interest will go. Huangshi is appointed Minister of Scribbles and has asked for an office (The Scribe's Desk) for drafting and compiling histories etc. The Desk should have an area seen by The Scribe, Prime Minister and Guardians only. The rest will be used for publishing, is my understanding. Punkdaddy will return to us as a Guardian. We will be sure he is properly hazed. In the mean time, go ahead and get his masking and title set up. That's it for now. I'll be back later to ask for the Moon. I belive that is all the meddling with the off site that I will be doing. The rest will be the Prime Minister's problem Thanks

Actually when most people say supermoon, they mean the mythical thing that gets passed around facebook all the time. I got so tired of pasting links to explain the reality and telling people it's not what they think, that I just ignore the posts about it now. You would think that after so many hoaxes about it, people might start thinking it strange that no one has seen one of these enormous moons before. Or the companion hoax that says Mars will appear the same size as the moon. Makes me want to facepalm hard enough to see stars...

HELLO and WELCOME! Do you have any chocolate?

I thought PETA was the bunch that loved critters more than humans. I am surprised they support killing shelter animals. Really phone? We needed to see that 4 times. Ugh. Sorry. I will clean it up tomorrow.

LOL. Well, sure. If you want to start a Doctor Spoiler thread in General, be our guest.

Ugh! You poor creature! We will have extra rations of chocolate shipped to you immediately. We will shape it to look like hand grenades to both allow your people to feel comfortable with it and to provide endless hours of entertainment as minions attempt to decide which is live and which is yummy.

I object to you using your introduction thread as a source of Doctor Who spoilers.

Welcome to TWP. Do you have any chocolate?

This seems like a fun activitiy! Can't wait to see the results.

Nah, Cormac can write and knows that a joke proposal should be funny and a serious proposal should be coherent and evidentiary. I checked the nation and he is on our ban list, so apparently it's not the first time this nation has angered a TWP delegate.

One of the best parts of being delegate is the telegrams. lol I'm thinking that someone is mad at me.

Do you have any chocolate? If so, please allow us a couple days to post a thread in the seekrit chambers where we say bad things about you. You can practice being bent out of shape and offended while you wait. (Welcome back. I will add the announcement and the masking to the list of requests and announcements that I am already falling behind on.)
