History

See all of you out here like "300cm Mantis Shrimp" but none of you have considered -- shrimp cooks really well with fire. Elmo has a lot of that.

okay, but elmo is also flammable.

this means that elmo has to use its powers when the Size Large Mantis Shrimp when it's far away. Even if the Size Large Mantis Shrimp is set on fire, it could rush elmo, leading to both losing, however, since elmo is significantly smaller, it's more likely that the shrimp would win, since the shrimp has more mass.

I voted for Elmo because the shrimp is very nearly twice is tall as I am and I find that intimidating, especially having interacted with a person who is 6Â’10 (208cm) before. I canÂ’t imagine encountering something even taller, even more especially if that thing is something IÂ’d normally be eating for dinner.

Therefore IÂ’d like Elmo to simply cook and eat the intimidating seafood.

You should vote for the mantis shrimp. The average mantis shrimp is only 10 cm long, but their punch is so strong that they are able to win in fights against octopuses, knock the arms off of crabs, and shatter the shells of snails! That is becase they punch FASTER THAN A BULLET. Just imagine what one could do to Elmo if it was 9 feet tall!

A blind mantis shrimp is a far weaker opponent, as mantis shrimp rely heavily on their eyesight when hunting. Elmo would easily be able to light the shrimpÂ’s eyes on fire, giving him a strategic advantage.

Consider how the mantis shrimp got so tall in the first place. Probably mutation. Probably from radioactive mutagenic toxic slime. And it goes without saying that a mutant shrimp has mutant powers. So they likely have some sort of extra-sensory perception or heat vision or something. Also they would have sweet ninja skills.

Or just an extreme brain tumor that affected his growth like Robert Wadlow, then that could be ruled out, as it would be an affect of the tumor and not so much nuclear radiation as that sure mutates a creature but not that drastically

Vault 41 is open

Tiralta, Jazur, Amiyoka

Good morning! I wanted to get a bit of discussion going about the upcoming GA proposal, Regulating Medical Genetic Modification.

Proposal: https://www.nationstates.net/page=UN_view_proposal/id=walfo_1675087225

Forum thread: https://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=526260

This is a measure meant to provide oversight and standards for procedures which modify genetic material, meaning DNA, RNA, etc. I've been mulling this one over for the last couple of days and I'm torn on it. On one hand, it's clearly well researched and went through a lot of drafting, and I like that it's providing regulation. On the other hand, is it covering all its bases? Does 2(c) provide an out for procedures which are too risky? Will 2(d) permit the correct people to perform non-invasive modifications such as vaccines? I'm really not sure what to make of this, so I'm hoping to hear some extra opinions ahead of it going to vote. What do you all think?

Mantis shrimp live for, on average, 3-6 years, but one species, the peacock mantis shrimp, can live for up to twenty. Since the mantis shrimp is 24, its old age would be just as much of a disadvantage as ElmoÂ’s youth.

WeÂ’re currently having a fun event called the Battle of All Things (BOAT). People entered various characters and now WA nations get to vote on which one wins a hypothetical battle. The current match is between Pyromaniacal Elmo and a 300 cm tall mantis shrimp.

Refugia is just one part of a wider community (CalRef) and we have a discord server. Within Refugia we have regular elections for the regional council positions and an active RMB, as well as fun events like BOAT and random chaotic discussions about topics like everyoneÂ’s favorite fruit.

Soltop wrote:what is N-day?

N-Day is a nuclear themed mini game within NationStates, where you can join a faction and nuke others or shield your teammates. It doesn't have any longterm effects on your nation so it's just some fun! It runs for 24 hours, the start time in your timezone can be found on the news page.

Here is an overview of how it works:

https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=874170

In my opinion, a big part of the fun is being part of the discord servers if you can on N-Day, there's a good sense of comradery and it can be a nice way to get to know people outside our region too.

As Jazur said, we are aligned with The Potato Alliance again this year.

It seems like the 300cm mantis shrimp is pulling ahead! A reminder that the mantis shrimp can punch faster than any other animal, and do so while maintaining their very cool colorful exterior! Pyromaniacal elmo is just a three year old wth a couple of matches.

I'm still a novice in the realms of both Ang Lee films and martial arts cinema as a whole, but it's probably the finest hour in both categories I've yet encountered. The action sequences are transcendent, and I think a lot of folks would appreciate its themes surrounding gender roles.

Much like Li Mu Bai, I attempt with time to put down the sword, to pass its burden to another as my heart grows heavy with leaden responsibility. But in much the same way, I find myself pulled back toward its hilt by the obligation of one final task.

I was elected back in *checks notes* January of 2021 as the inaugural Councillor of World Assembly Affairs. During the initial months of this new position's existence, Refugia's growth and influence in the World Assembly was tangible. 14 Information for Voters dispatches were published by either myself or the then-Security Council correspondent, and nearly every measure which came to vote was discussed in some detail on the RMB. Four WA referenda written by Refugi were passed into law, almost all of which had input from other community members as well. Delegates and officials from other regions were looking to our materials for analysis. By any measure, Refugia had what could be called a successful World Assembly program.

I'd like to return to this position to attempt to replicate this success. In recent months, WA discussion and activity within the region has been decreasing; no IFVs have been written under the current councillor, and it's been more than a month since a proposal was addressed here in the RMB. I aim to change that. My goal during the next term is to establish Refugia as a place of WA activity, but more importantly I want to create structures and resources which future councillors and present and future Refugi will be able to rely on. Here are my stated goals if elected:

- Immediately appoint a correspondent to assist in leading discussions and preparing IFVs

- Address each upcoming proposal before it comes to a vote, giving time for our regional stance to develop and influence other voting blocs

- Develop and publish an updated template for regional IFVs, which future councillors may utilize or modify

- Write a "How Does?" dispatch providing guidelines and resources for prospective WA authors

- Provide a prize for the first successful WA referendum of the term written by a Refugi author

This will probably be my swan song on NationStates. I grow weary of the site - I'm uncertain whether I'll even attempt a second term at this time - and my motivations are entirely focused on this office's potential in community building and making Refugia increasingly self-sufficient for the future. I hope to get the chance to work with y'all one more time.

Please accept this as my declaration of candidacy for Councillor of World Assembly Affairs.

If you wanna play as more anti-WMDs in character but still want to join in with N-Day, shield gang is fun! You can just make loads and loads of shields and use them to protect your faction from incoming nukes.

However, N-Day doesn't have any lasting effects on your nation so if you do want to nuke the sushi rice out of someone, this is your chance (just follow the Potatoey orders so we have the best chance of winning!)

This is a sad day in [nation=Delta Vega IV]. The region of our twin nation [Nation=W Amadeus Mozart], a region which has been my primary home here on NationStates (befofre I discovered Refugia), is facing a Schism. Most of my friends there are leaving to build for themselves a new region.

Small Brother believes he's too old for this kind of domestic politics, so Mozart will most likely CTE (and allow me to focus more on DVIV, as well as my Real-life job and many other hobbies).
