Hello Astoria
I don't like ice cream due to sensory issues.
Heyo and welcome to Astoria :3
Also gotta go Cookie Dough
Vanilla because I'm boring :3
Not really, vanilla is the reason why root beer floats, for sundaes, for ice cream sandwiches. It's not boring.

Hi friends! I know its not finished, but this dispatch shows most of my plans for Archkeeper! Please give it a read!
Other plans include:
- Weekly telegrams with info about regional growth over the past seven days
- A positions restriction act, ensuring no one can hold too much power
- Appointing Rosa and Shadow as Ophani, the former for her general knowledge, and being one of the faces of Astoria, and the latter for their extensive FA knowledge.
- Completing Houses. I intend to see the implementation of houses to its end, with Rosa helping me implement as she wants
- Applications for Keepers. A small questionnaire open for 24-48 hours, that will help me decide on my cabinet
- A regional census to see general population info, what you all want, and things like that that will guide how I do things over this term
So remember, I might not be in any big party, but I have big plans, and I care about Astoria. Vote Ambis for Archkeeper. And if maybe not that, consider me for Supreme Harbinger?
Oh yeah, if you have any questions, feel free to reach me by telegram. Here, on The Ambis, or via discord, where my username is @why_sosirius

Heyo Astoria :3
Bom Dia a Todos!! Um ótimo domingo.
Good morning everybody!! A great Sunday.
[table][tr][td]Question of the Day[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]What's your favorite way to relax after a long day?[/td][/tr]
[tr][td][spoiler=TOTA Answer :3]Being outside in nature[/spoiler][/td][/tr]
[/table]
Rock Pumice, Lordhelm, Catgirlboss, Celestial Cyptopir, Kurik
I like to chill out with music and play logic puzzle games :] I don't do that too often but it's nice to decompress with sometimes. I'm really good at Slant and I enjoy playing Boggle, Kakuro, and Akari too.
Unike
Some fun games all around :3
What would you say your favorite card game is? For myself UNO.
Rock Pumice
poll: mustard
uhh probably lying in bed listening to music
Should've added that and cheese sauce, oh well lol
also vibe on music
Lordhelm
same here but I gotta have a certain kinda music like the soundtrack for Dear Evan Hansen or smth bc the vibes are unparalleled when you listen to Sincerely Me after a long day at school
Lordhelm
By laying in my bed and not doing anything.
Glad to hear you have a song to help you chill. What's your favorite song in general?
But Cyptopir you could go outside and see the world :3
Ohhh there's a lot of good card games. Uno is pretty good and there are some really interesting variants. Poker and Blackjack seem fun too but I've not played them too much. One card game I've always wanted to play but haven't is 6 Nimmt. I watched a playthrough of it once and it seemed really fun and chaotic :]
fave song in general is probably Loser Baby from Hazbin Hotel, its really fun to sing :33
Rock Pumice
Can't say I've heard of the last one might have to look it up, as for blackjack we have that on one of the discord bots (fake money) feel free to play it lol
Nice, I assume you've watched the whole show in general? What did you think of it?
Rock Pumice
haven't seen the whole show, I've only seen clips but I've heard the entire soundtrack. from what I've seen I have two things to say
1. the men are very hot
2. its f**king hilarious sometimes
Listen to music, play a game or two, and watch some anime.
I've heard it's got quite good comedy, though I haven't gotten around to watching it myself. Anya another Astorian talks about it quite a bit so I'm familiar with some of it.
What's your choice of games or anime for that?
Writing a chapter for the magna opus about my life, the Evinagionio.
Unike
Can't wait to read the most exciting plot arc of 2024
Heyo and welcome to Astoria, I'm Unike, the Astra Regens, if you have any questions about the region or how to get involved don't hesitate to ask :3

Basically it's a numbers game where there are four rows of cards that are numbered 1-104 and every round everyone plays a numbered card from their hand in secret. The cards are revealed and are added to the rows in order of lowest to highest where the card fills the row of the card closest but not over it numerically. Each row can only have 5 cards in it, if a 6th is put down the player who played that card takes those cards, adding to their points, which you don't want. If you play a card with a lower value than all the rows, you have to pick a row to take. The round ends after everyone has used their 10 cards, their points are added to a running total, and the another round begins until someone gets 66 or more points.
It's a simple premise with simple rules, but it can be surprisingly fun and suspenseful :] The video I watched on it was by No Rolls Barred, a channel that posts board game videos once a week. It's nice long form content, if you have an hour to kill I'd recommend watching their playthrough of the game or any of their other recent videos https://youtu.be/MvgLf_N71to
Frenzy for Archkeeper
You cant deny that my opponents do hold valid campaigns, promises and policy. They are definitely fit for this position, yet one thing sets me apart most of all, unlike the other candidates, I am an Astorian and Astorian only; I am part of no other regions and will continue as this way, my attention if elected as Archkeeper would solely lie upon Astoria and not divided amongst other communities and regions, especially with other candidates serving active roles in government of regions besides Astoria.

Unike
yeah my faves Adele and random sad stuff like that for no reason, then it'll immediately jump to the loudest song in my playlist
Imagine having a generic rectangle flag.
Catgirlboss
Sweet I'll check it out, thanks Zerph
Rock Pumice
What specific plans do you have for the region should you get elected? Especially in areas outside of TOTA
Sateru will agree here but Taylor Swift music is solid
Some of us like the standard flag shape ya know :p
Velhkaiddia
Usually a warm bath and then anime and playing NS :3
Welcome! We are happy to have you here! Feel free to let us know more about your nation too
My flag was a square but I love the balance of the 2:3 proportions
Unike
Yeah yeah . . .
twinsies :3
Lordhelm
imagine being built like the flag of Nepal if it was drawn by a five year old
You are so based :3
Nah it is a cool flag design Nahua
Ahh, bruh.
Unike
For the TotC it would be to implement a proper schedule and due dates on articles. As far as FA will go, it'll be put on the backburner as the focus remains on internal policy, and I am inexperienced in FA, I won't lie or say otherwise, which is why my KotR nominations is someone more knowledgeable in this area as me.
Otherwise it'll mostly focus on getting activity in the Arts and Nexus back to speed, which is my main priority. I think those two temples are most important when it comes to keeping a strong and engaged community, and need a big push to get them rolling again.
Unike
I'm not saying its a bad flag, it looks nice. imo its really original (compared to mine which is just a union jack made by an edgy darkiplier fan)
[table][tr][td]RP Prompt of the Day[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Are there any flowers that hold any significant cultural and symbolic importance in your nation? If now, any species of plant that does?[/td][/tr]
[/table]
Velhkaiddia
Damn . . . that's funny, as the islands my nation is on have, like, no flowers, and very little plants in general.
Dionysou
the flower that is a large symbol of Azhani culture is the rose. roses are often the symbol of the bridge between the living world and hell. it is also a common Azhani legend that when the nomadic tribes were trying to settle the lands, the center of the future capital city was marked by a black rose in the sand. there is a common tradition to gift a black rose to those descended from royalty on the 5th full moon of the year.
Dionysou
Lore and stuff for my new canon:

https://www.nationstates.net/nation=eragon_island/detail=factbook/id=2504607
ayyyyy new Eragon lore dropped
Heh
In Ottoman there is no things as symbolic rather it's witchcraft in Ottoman term.
Dionysou
Recently got a copy of Sid Meiers Civilization iv and am currently going on a nostalgia trip. As for anime I'm currently watching One Piece.
Good day everyone! Today is the final day of campaigning, and I've finally finished my campaign dispatch! Even if you think you've read it, check again, because everything is in there now.
The dispatch is here, this took me a lot of stress and headache, so check it out, and feel free to ask questions!
Vote Golden, vote Ambis
Can't go wrong with either of those, have fun :3
