Hey guys, i just solved a problem about urban parkour and look what appeared to me:
"It's often raining men (hallelujah) in Inkopolis"
Ain't that cool?

Did you get my telegram about the seven S1 cards I am willing to sell you? Remnants Of The Pacific
Chacapoya, Floofybit, Remnants Of The Pacific
I'm happy to report that even though our law enforcement capacity is in the 98th percentile (almost no policing), my country is virtually crime-free and birds kill more people than other people do.
Cause of death:
* Old Age - 80%
* Lost in Wilderness - 17.6%
* Hawk attack - 1.6%
* Murder - 0.7%

I have a card of this nation from Season 1, but having S3 cards of all my 3 nations would be lovely for a change. I also wonder how many of them, if at all, will be rare or higher.
Your population are living in a utopia.

I'm happy to say there are no murders in my country, but there is suicide.
old age 63.6
lost in the wilderness 32.7
fox attack 2.8
suicide while in police custody 0.9

I've made some good progress getting some more Spiritus and Meihua cards for my collections, but I'm afraid it is once again to the point that I will just be waiting for someone to unpack one of these cards and put it on sale, so I ask if you own any of the cards in these two lists, please consider selling it to me! I've put bids higher than their market value, so you'll be able to invest easier into more valuable cards.

Old Age - 54.2%
Lost in Wilderness - 41.3%
Polar Bear Attack - 4%
Suicide in Police Custody - 0.4%
The "Lost in Wilderness" stat makes sense for my nation because most of the non-urbanized areas are tundra and mountainous, and the polar bear attack stat makes somewhat sense because of the high per capita polar population Melenavenia has.
The "Suicide in Police Custody" stat doesn't make sense to me because my nation has very progressive laws, very high compliance, high cheerfulness, and high civil rights. I suppose it has to be because of my 10% Law Enforcement stat, which is uncomfortably high considering that every issue I've encountered that I believe would give too much power to police, I've either skipped or gone with the option that wouldn't.

Election Update:
Reminder that it is the last day to cast a ballot in the Councillor of Culture election. A good eight of you have become Member States since the election started, so if you think you should have been able to vote but couldn't, it's worth checking again.
Vote early, vote often.

99% of my people die of natural causes, 1% or lost in the woods, I take this as something to be proud of, however that does also mean That 1 in 100 Of my people will die of Being lost in a forest
Floofybit, Tiralta
Dying in a forest is the most natural cause of all
Typica, Floofybit
I guess that is literally the case...
Typica, Sylh Alanor, Vikoland, Araine, Floofybit, Tiralta
Unless it isn't... Government planted assassin trees? Genetically modified arboreal creatures? Camouflaged soldiers with questionably sourced high-detail bush costumes? You never know with this site lol
Vikoland, Floofybit, Tiralta, Free Syria
35% of my population is dying because of cancer so in my country the most natural cause is cancer
15.6% of my Population dies of murder.....
Yay! I banned planes. Now there's only hot air balloons. What could go wrong?
Chacapoya, Vikoland
FRIGHTENING ECONOMY!
Typica, Floofybit, Liphia, Remnants Of The Pacific
65.8% of my citizens die of old age
31.1% die from being lost in the wilderness
3.1% die from jackal attacks
My law enforcement stat is in the top 19%, but I like to think of it as more of an emergency response force than a police force. I've also abolished prison, so nobody commits suicide in police custody

Election Update:
The Councillor of Culture election is concluded. Congratulations to Djorner, our new incoming Councillor, who secured 56% of the vote. Thanks as well to Junitaki-Cho for giving us some competition in this election and allowing Refugi to make a choice in their next leadership.

At this time, candidacy is now open for our final election this term, the Councillor of World Assembly Affairs. The Councillor of World Assembly Affairs is responsible for facilitating discussions on World Assembly resolutions-at-vote, developing dispatches with Information For Voters (IFV) on current resolutions at vote, and providing regional recommendations for votes to the World Assembly Delegate.
The candidacy period runs from this moment until the end of the day February 23[sup]rd[/sup]. You can announce your candidacy here in the RMB, or in the #ground-floor of our community Discord server.

I noticed the vote was decided 9-7 in favor of Djorner. What happens if there is a tie? Only one change in vote would've resulted in a tie in this instance.
Chacapoya, Typica, Sylh Alanor, Vikoland, Araine, Floofybit, Remnants Of The Pacific, Erie-Arcadia Of Wombats, Tiralta
Mechanically in Vote.CalRef, the site will report that the result is a tie. Legally, in the RRS, we have never considered what to do in that situation and have no policy for it.

Just wondering do you have to have discord to be a councilor of world assembly affairs?
Chacapoya, Cheesy Tots, Vikoland, Araine, Floofybit, Aephony
There is no discord requirement for anything in Refugia, government or otherwise.

If you do plan on running for anything I think having Discord might improve your chances.

Want some Allokyusan military intervention to help dela with your problem? Our bombers can level any terrorist camp or terrorist city factory in minutes, with either chemical or incendiary weapons (at your choice). Come on, don't be shy, just give us a call and listen to the sweet sounds of massive bomber wings passing over to deal with the terrorists, i promise that the civilian casualties will be minimal, hehehe...

Im happy to be able to get back to growing our list of friends and offering new options to Refugi. It is my hope that during this upcoming Foreign Affairs Councillor term, we will be able to focus on growth and finding regions that we vibe with.
To start off my term, Im going to put to vote a referendum on Celtia. Ive been in contact with their FA Minister and they seem interested in opening an embassy. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to share them here or in the discord server. I will happily answer what I can, and we can see how this goes!

Hello all you wonderful people, and those of you that prefer ginger beer to ginger ale.
Chacapoya, Floofybit, Avatar Webby
nah my friend thank you but no they are buying my guns and it means more money and the weapon industry grows more than ever but if they turn into a real problem i'll give you a call
ah and they are not killing my population so thats okay by me
Floofybit
Could you pull off with pizza bombs please?
Floofybit
I'll be voting for this.
Overall I agree that they're probably a really great pick to at least give relations a try. The fact they're game-side only is highly interesting to me, and it's been pretty cool to see them succeed so far.

It occurs to me that I may have excluded androids, AI, cyborgs, and sentient animals in my greeting. As a nation that contains one or more of those things myself, I should have known better.
Anyway. How are things on this side of the world?

Hello everybody :D
I'm Minskievian Refugees / also known as Minskiev, and this is me announcing my candidacy for Councilor of World Assembly Affairs.
Why am I running?
I decided to run this election cycle because I think I'd do a good job was CoWAA. I have World Assembly authorship experience and World Assembly Ministry experience. I've written and passed 6 GA proposals, 1 SC proposal, I've been WA staff for the past...goodness, 11 months, and I've ran the World Assembly Office of The Rejected Realms for the past 5 months.
Do note, however, that I will keep my position as CoWAA strictly separate from my personal WA ambitions and my position as WA Officer in TRR! I know very well how irritating it is to hear "oh, well this region will be voting this way, so maybe your region's WA position should follow suit". Nothing about my TRR position should influence my behavior surrounding my CoWAA position. I will also recuse myself from giving input on drafts of my own, however, I will still open up discussion of course. And I won't make recommendations on my own drafts either.
What will I accomplish?
- Discussions opened at least a day before voting on the World Assembly floor begins.
- Consistent recommendations for votes! Yes, I'll try to bring that back :D
- Help to get more Refugi passing proposals! This means constructive criticism, assistance with those tricky lists, guidance, anything.
Do I get a cookie?
Yes. Yes, you do.
Thanks for reading. If you have any questions, please ask, and consider voting for me this election :)
- Minsk

Anyways, what's y'all favourite breakfast bread? (French Toast, Bagel, etc.) 🪃
Chacapoya, Sylh Alanor, Minskievian Refugees, Djorner
What kinda cookie do I get?
Floofybit
Whatever you'd like! Except oatmeal raisin, we took all the raisins out and gave them to local wildlife.
Chacapoya, Floofybit, Remnants Of The Pacific
Oh those poor squirrels...
Delta Vega Iv, Floofybit, Minskievian Refugees, Remnants Of The Pacific
mine is honey wheat, that is lightly toasted with the outside hard and crunchy but the inside chewy
well if we are talking about breakfast food in general I like to have eggs in the middle of the toasted bread; scrambled with mayo on the slices on the inside to give some texture and seasoning on the eggs, its to die for...
Chacapoya, Floofybit
Chocolate croissant owo

I like a good toast with the middle cut out and an over-easy egg in the hole. Delish.

"I have done it!... I can now rule the world with this power!" he said
(*you then see a dim light come from whatever he is holding*)
(*the man slowly turns towards you*)
"and who to test this magnificent power on?"
(* he would slowly look towards you*)
"oh my I didn't see you there!"
(*you would hear a clicking noise as the lights turned on and see the man was the Remnants of the Pacific.*)
"sorry about that... I was just overly excited on getting 100 season 1 cards."
(*you would slowly begin to walk out of the room*)
"all I wanted to do was to tell you about my cards!"

I've been thinking about the fact that there are no protocols in the case of a tie between two or more candidates for the most votes (with no other candidate with fewer votes), what should be the process for determining the outcome of the election?
Let the current members of the Regional Council decide? Have another election? What do y'all think?
Delta Vega Iv, Chacapoya, Typica, Vikoland, Araine, Floofybit, Remnants Of The Pacific
simply don't tie the vote smh

I know I know, I got the idea earlier with how my question was answered but I just can't decide what type of amendment to put forward, so I just wanted to gauge what Refugi would really want.
