Greetings all,

After more than a year of consideration, I have reached the conclusion that it would be a notable benefit in regional continuity, as well as my general health, for me to step down as Arch-Administrator of Refugia. I am pleased with the work that I have been able to accomplish over the last five and a half years, and the sites and services I was able to create. I am delighted to see Refugia grow from a twinkle in my eye to a full and independent region with its own unique culture and motivations. In this bright new era, I will continue to assist when I can on NationStates in my capacity as site staff.

I appoint the new Arch-Admin to be A Million Dreams (also known as Aav), respected two-year Moderator of Calamity Refuge -- honourable, all-around capable human being, and good friend. She has my every confidence and will have my every support in what she requires as a part of this transition and I would, therefore, like her to have your confidence and support as well.

Cheers,

Luca

Good morning Refugia,

I’m grateful to Luca for the kind words on my succession as Arch-Administrator of Refugia. I’ve always looked up to their work here, and am excited and honored to be able to continue to carry it on. I will openly state that there will be changes in how things are run, as we are different people, but that generally you can expect Refugia to continue to be an island in the eye of the storm.

I look forward to elections for the regional council, as the candidacy declaration period begins today. Interested candidates have until 19 May to declare their candidacy by mentioning me on the regional message board in their declaration.

- Aav

It has been a very long time since I have been active in the politics of a region, but I would be up for the challenge (and the dubious internet power that comes with it) if no better candidates arise. I believe foreign affairs would be my desired flavor of power, if so pushed to give it a name or a title.

West Ladynia would like to announce our candidacy to the Councillorship of World Assembly Affairs. Our candidate is Carlo Vergara, current West Ladynian delegate to the Refugi Industrial and Social Development Union.

We will use our role to chair regular meetings of two kinds:

1) Meetings to review WA legislation proposed by other nations.

2) Meetings to develop WA legislation to be proposed by Refugi members.

More than making any decisions, we will attempt to set an agenda to orient discussion around certain broad aims in each discussion. Then, we will rely on the dialogue between member states to understand the best road forward, mindful of the following goals:

- In the General Assembly, we would like to carry forward a strongly left-wing global policy in the World Assembly, aiming towards the construction of broad, ecologically sustainable and socially liberatory welfare states in all WA members, and to support member states in the construction of socialism.

- In the Security Council, we will seek to continue our current policy of neutrality and anti-fascism.

We intend to work closely with the Councillor of Foreign Affairs to build ties with other left-wing and anti-fascist regions which will be crucial in carrying forwards our resolutions, and with the elected WA Delegate to develop a common reasoning behind their vote in the Assembly.

If you agree with the above platform:

- Vote Carlo Vergara for Councillor!

The powers we currently have in stock are, going in RRS order:

- The Power of the Firm Handshake™ (Councillor of Foreign Affairs)

- The Power to hold Festivities and Competitions (Councillor of Culture)

- an assorted* half-dozen of Defense and Intelligence Powers (Councillor of Operations)

- and the Power to Inform About World Assembly Shenanigans (Councillor of World Assembly Affairs)

*very much selected specifically by the RMB

right now I think Councillor of Operations and Councillor of Culture are uncontested, then Councillor of Foreign Affairs has 1, and C of WAA has 2 people in the running

edit: you (Blue Fire) announced your candidacy for Ops Councillor so that makes one for both Ops and FA, for anyone else reading this

Pursuant to RRS(6), West Ladynia would like to propose the alteration of RRS(7a).

It currently reads thus:

"The Arch-Administrator, defined as Refuge Isle, which acts as the head of state for the Region for any legal or foreign circumstance which requires such. This Councillor shall:

i. Appoint and dismiss Councillors into positions as the result of elections to their respective office.

ii. Maintain records of significance to the Region and its history.

iii. Verify voter integrity by maintaining a roster of valid Member States.

iv. Cast votes corresponding to the will of the Region's voting Member States during the circumstance of also being the Region's World Assembly Delegate."

Honoring Refuge Isle's retirement at the end of a stellar career as the Head of State of Refugia, and acknowledging the appointment of A Million Dreams as the new Arch-Administrator, as well as the fact this situation may repeat itself in the future, we propose that RRS(7a) be changed to read:

"The Arch-Administrator, held as a lifetime appointment by A Million Dreams and thereafter by her chosen successor, acts as the head of state for the Region for any circumstance (legal or pertaining to foreign affairs) which may so require. This Councillor shall:

i. Appoint and dismiss Councillors into positions as the result of elections to their respective office.

ii. Maintain records of significance to the Region and its history.

iii. Verify voter integrity by maintaining a roster of valid Member States.

iv. Cast votes corresponding to the will of the Region's voting Member States during the circumstance of also being the Region's World Assembly Delegate."

Willing to second if the original wording is kept in this segment: “acts as the head of state for the Region for any legal or foreign circumstance which requires such.”

Instead of

“acts as the head of state for the Region for any circumstance (legal or pertaining to foreign affairs) which may so require.”

Edit: I actually think that just a name swap (changing: “defined as Refuge Isle” to “presently defined as A Million Dreams”) would be better. I would vote against this proposal in its current form.

So idk if I'm doing this right, but here I am. I would like to declare for regional council!

I wouldn't normally do this, I just got on Nation States to build and run a society I think would work for the most part, but since not many other people are willing to run for regional council, why not put my hat in the ring. What would I bring to the table? I'd bring my vision and my free time to be a vassal for the people of Refugia to use to shape this lovely region into the perfect utopia.

I will be transparent in saying I'm relatively new to Nation States, but I'm a quick learner. I leave the decision is up to you.

I agree that just a name change is needed here. Arch admin is not a roleplay but a real and OOC responsibility.

An important factor in running for a Councillor position is to announce a candidacy for a specific Councillor role, as one can hold but one chair.

For this to be a valid candidacy declaration you must state the specific position you're running for and tag A Million Dreams in your post.

Brb writing an RRS proposal that defines the arch admin as "the one who holds the cassette player during the great game of musical chairs that forms our regional government, pressing play or pause at their whim and seeing where the nations may fall"
