GA law is not my area of expertise (SC yes) so I cannot really comment apart from possibly the “Remarking” clause - reads a bit like a NatSov reason which tends to weaken the overall argument.

Okay it’s not a bad first attempt, mostly legal. Game created region is, as has been noted previously, an R4 violation. I suspect the mention of players in Protecting Our Players Accord is also an R4 violation, though it might be best to get a Mod ruling on that.
The biggest issue for me is that all you’ve really given is a list of roles/positions held by Halo. There is no detail on how he influenced the region or the NS community at large, the achievements in the various roles. Good Commendations (and Condemnations) are built on detailed research, not laundry lists.
Have a look at the recent Commends/Condemns that have passed the SC. Read up on some of the ones that failed as well and see how much work has gone into the writing of both types.
My notes above are pretty close to the reaction you would get if you published the current draft in the NS SC forum.

For some reason, your team reminds me of Red Dwarf's "Meltdown" episode.
Not consciously, but having reminded myself of that episode’s plot I can understand why.
Team News - Vlad Dracul Williams’ red card has been rescinded as he was not gouging his opponent’s eye, but merely removing an eyelash. With his thumbnail....
Anyway he’s been cleared to play.

The Bhang Bhang Ducian team of HUBs (History’s Utter Bastards) played their first game today against the team from Westwind. The HUBs missed their first games due to their preference for the taverns and hostelries over actually playing rugby.
In the first half the HUBs fly-half Adolf Hitler Williams kicked a penalty into touch and gave his side a lineout 5 metres from the opposing try line. The lineout was thrown in by Genghis Khan Williams to the lock Julius Caesar Williams who palmed the ball down to the scrum half Napoleon Bonaparte Williams. A sidestep and reach and N. B. Williams touched the ball down over the line. Try! A.H. Williams missed the conversion giving the HUBs a five point lead.
The second half was tight with no tries scored by either side. The HUBs kicked two penalties, after Westwind was firstly found not releasing in the ruck and secondly for offside.
Final score: Bhang Bhang Duc 11 v Westwind 0
Vlad Dracul Williams received a red card for eye gouging.
(Am I doing this right?)

A belated “hi” from me - welcome to TWP. Think I’ve seen you on the GP and SC forums?

He keeps trying....I've banned a few of the IPs now from there...all DHCP so it's probably not going to help...I may have to ban the IP Range from that ISP completely.
I'm going to add his IPs to the firewall on the server as well, as I think the login page still renders if I ban an IP.
If you find your account locked out, you should be able to try again in 15 minutes as it will auto unlock (provided numbnutz doesn't keep hitting it).
Thanks Winni. Got locked out again late yesterday (my GMT) time - just left it to reset this time.

Has been banned, but it's a DHCP Address in Iowa, so it will likely return as a new IP at somepoint. You weren't the only account it attempted to login as.
Thankfully the forum software's lockout/autounlock does it's job in preventing a true brute force attack, as it maxes out at 3 attempts.
I’ve been locked out of my account twice now by the same little shit (Casmar was his forum handle) that’s been stalking Dave. Dark reset my password for me after I managed to stuff that up.

An excellent choice. Congratulations Bran.

Well that’s my coup delayed by another year or so. The roo squad are going to be so unhappy.

My first cat was Ford Prefect, then Grendel and Bonnie (short for Bonnington, after the famous British mountaineer, Chris Bonnington). Then there were the brothers Zinnie and Pip. After them was Seren and now we have Ollie.
All my cats have been moggies, apart from Ollie who’s 75% Maine Coon.
We’ve never lost a cat - had to give them all away to good homes when we moved country. Seren is still alive though staying with our friends in Brisbane.

Once upon a time a statement regarding the status of a TWP citizen would have been posted here first rather than in NS Gameplay.
https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=35703941#p35703941
Now not all TWP members go to the GP forum, nor do they bother with Discord. Would be nice if TWP’s government could remember that.

My additions, when I get around to them, involve more ham, CoCD’s appalling attempt to repeal their Liberation and their Delegate’s appeal to the Mods to audit their region for wrongdoing. The Mods politely told him to sod off.
-
I’ve actually got some additions to make to this based on some more rank stupidity from CoCD. Will try and get it done this week.
-
I may eventually put this up in the SC forum gameside, but leaving it here for the moment to work on. Background: CoCD are a fascist region who recent pulled all their political tags from their WFE as part of a campaign to convince Gameplay that they’re no longer fascist. Keeping the embassies with Nazi and fascist regions open was a dead giveaway though.
QuoteThe Security Council,
Noting the Confederation of Corrupt Dictators recent removal of notices of political affiliation from their region as an attempt to disguise their true nature.
Understanding that this practice is often described as “putting lipstick on a pig”.
Realising that pigs are intelligent and social creatures that are undeserving of such treatment.
Stating that the application of lipstick does nothing to change the nature of the beast and that the pig remains a pig.
Hoping that this proposal will discourage other regions from applying beauty products to members of the genus Sus.
Hereby Condemns the Confederation of Corrupt Dictators.
Maybe needs more ham jokes?

Now I knew the name Small Huts, but didn’t realise Cromagnon was you as well. Welcome!

Welcome back.

Likewise. Thank you.

One of the reasons the forum has worked so well up to now is the fact that this game is international in nature. We live across different time zones - in the past we've had TWP governments made up of people living in the USA, UK, and Australia. In my not so humble opinion Discord and Skype are not really tools that can work well for long periods unless everyone using it is relatively close together time-wise.
