Region: Refugia
Ok, good.*
I didnt got that out of that part; it seems we interpreted it differently.
I did view this as a good thing. After all, the military personnel in question (MPIQ) has vowed to serve their country for a certain amount of time. They should have the option to opt out of active frontline duty, yes, but they cant just drop out of the military entirely until their vow is fulfilled. Meaning even though their opinions have changed they should still serve, i.e. as part of logistics or something.
Can only agree except for GAR#132.
Regarding the WA thats a) true and b) I am always a bit sceptical because of both, bad faith and bad authors, including this current resolution.
*Yes, I can believe that. Sorry if I came off as a bit aggressive last time.
First up, its odd that you picked this part of my ramblings specifically as it wasnt even targeted at anyone specifically but rather an objective observation. I am most joyous for establishing new legislation when logical and necessary.
Furthermore, I wasnt being aggressive; I just opened up a bit about my point of view. Maybe I wasnt clear enough with my wording?-I have read it multiple times now and cant find the supposed aggression; maybe its a cultural misunderstanding?
I commented on a piece of advise to vote in a certain way. Thats the context as far as I was concerned.
Can one file a complaint against someone else in this region?-Jokes aside, this whole part is rather rude, tempting me to ignore it. I know youre the founder of this beautiful region yet the phrasing of this paragrah is really rather distasteful. If I did infringe or even violate the RMB rules and/or rules of conduct feel free to correct me (including what I did wrong if not inherently obvious). But please refrain from insulting me.
Your objective observation was empirically incorrect. Your statement was that all the GA does is repeal and no new legislation will be coming any time soon, but the next five votes are about new legislation, followed by one repeal and then three more votes for new legislation.
I do not know what the cultural disconnect is that you're alluding to, but when you ask "did you even read" something, the implication is that they did not. If you're saying that in response to someone making a recommendation based on their analysis, that is quite offensive.
My comments however, were not made in a capacity of a moderator, nor were they made with a threat against you. So, it's curious that you're turning to the code of conduct as a shield from criticism while simultaneously saying that I'm out of line for giving you criticism.
Chacapoya, Sylh Alanor, Tiralta
You acknowledged in your reply to me that you came off more aggressive than you intended, so I don't know why you're trying to act like that wasn't the case. Chillax, homeslice
Lethodus, Sylh Alanor, Tiralta, Uwuguaya
I raised the possibility, yes; Did I confirm it?-No. Idk what youre trying to construe there.
Did you think I was aggressive?
I did specifically say nowadays and usually, making it clear thats not always what the WA does. The near-future wasnt even included in this; it was rather referring to past events.
I am German and Germans are said to often come off as passive-aggressive to native English speakers even if were not meaning to. Since theres lot of people from all different cultures and places here, it is reasonable to assume a misinterpretation or misperception can take place, thusly a cultural disconnect.
Sorry, that was bad wording on my part. The *even* was unnecessary and lead to implying something I meant not. I can see now how that can be misunderstood, yes.
That was not clear to me. I thought you were moderating there. I couldnt detect a threat in your comment, no.
I have nothing against criticism per se, in fact I would be the first to welcome it with open arms. My offense rather stemmed from you calling me indirectly baseless and crass; let alone the assumption that I could be malicious enough to imply something when this was a rather bad choice of wording on my part.
Criticism should always be constructive, not destructive. And I didnt catch that at all from your statement, sorry.
Great point! What was constructive in this comment?

Now that's what I'm talking about!
Tiralta, Falafelandia, Morrigan, Uwuguaya
Don't you want to see the ultimate symbol of industry toppled by a creature of the earth, as we complete our return to nature and welcome two animal guardians to the top of the podium? Surely you can see how the Horse, in all its oversized majesty, is the one to defeat the truck.
Delta Vega Iv, Sylh Alanor, Araine, Tiralta, Morrigan, Estebere, Lycanjeskai, Uwuguaya
Does anyone have any tips on getting your defense spending higher???? Im at 0.9% and I want it to be higher o.o
Falafelandia, Jazur, Uwuguaya
Were getting close to 900 pages!
Araine, Liphia, Tiralta, Falafelandia, Jazur, Amiyoka, Estebere, The Blue Fire
But it would be cooler to have the badger call forth all the people the truck has run off the road and/or accidentally killed.
Edit: Oh, and then we can have the two tops on top
Tiralta, A Million Dreams, Falafelandia, Jazur, Morrigan, Lycanjeskai, Uwuguaya
A true nightmare scenario.
Junitaki-Cho, Liphia, Tiralta, Jazur, Morrigan
Noooo, ultimate bottom horse win!
Morrigan, Lycanjeskai
The badger is the only winning top!
Tiralta, Jazur, Morrigan, Uwuguaya
We already kinda failed though.
X class end of the world scenario has commenced
Jazur
Ah so what happened there was uh. I ran out of time IRL and couldn't finish it v_v the badger would have declared her will to create a badger's paradise!
Thank you!! :D This one is based on futurism, suprematism and constructivism, basically all of that family of early 20th century Russian art! And these are actually the first comics I've made - I think I made like a panel or two for things before but the first badger one is the first one I finished. So BOAT has been great for inspiring that v_v
Badger vs the top curse >:D
Also I think either would be great next battle but HORSE would amuse me most

I've somehow neglected to vote yet, but I am submitting my vote for the badger!

Ah, got it. Interesting idea. Do remember that you should always take a break when youre in need of one.
Have you watched Centaurworld? If yes, then perhaps you could make the horse look like a bigger version of horses Centaurworld form.

The Battle of All Things II: Match Update
Twilight closes in on the Battle of All Things II, and the Bracket's battlefield lays strewn with lifeless bodies.
Sixteen armies descended upon this place. Each refusing to back down; each convinced that they were in the right. From the distant lands of Istastioner, Weird Al provided accordion accompaniment to Greta Thunberg's demise, only to be devastated by the power of the Badger, himself. As match M approached, Karl Marx realised all too late that he was too exhausted from wrestling with the animals of the world.
The Badger took advantage of the open sea of bones, and used them to reanimate 20th century Russian art with Badger III: Specter. A mini-series that truly deserves its status as a trending dispatch across all of NationStates. A mesmerised audience found they could do nothing else but support the Badger in her quest of world domination, and did so to the tune of a 38-14 victory.
The Heavenly Eunuchocracy receives a Season 1 Testlandia, as well as their choice of a S1 Sionis Prioratus OR S1 Mindless Contempt.
The next match begins immediately with Aggressive F-250 Driver vs. A Horse Thicc Enough to Carry You
https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1832205
Betting for Match N is now closed. Betting for the final (Match O) is not so much as "open" as it is the same ability to make a final bet as always. But that is now the only betting option.

The F-250 needs to end. The driver too. Neither road rage nor pointlessly oversized gas-guzzling vehicles are conducive to creating safer streets.

QOTD: Should i make QOTDs and FOTDs twice a week (Tuesday, Thursday), or should I make them a weekly thing? Let me know, I don't think I can keep it up honestly lol

The Aggressive F-250 Driver wanted me to say that it doesn't matter how thicc the horse is, horsepower beats horse power and the horse is roadkill.
He also wants you to know that there is more to come AND HE HAS MY FAMILY TIED TO THE ROAD PLEASE VOTE FOR HIM TO SPARE THEM
Chacapoya, Typica, Tiralta, Falafelandia, Jazur, The Merinos, The Blue Fire
Many issues where the option is Lets have ka-boom-boom! increase military spending. Also parades, etc. Basically anything pro-military and vaguely military-friendly.
The thing is this wasnt meant to be a critique. Anyhow, how are you doing?

Chacapoya, Typica, Melenavenia, Tiralta, Falafelandia, Jazur, Geoffistan
Vote Aggressive F-250 Driver. Itll be more fun to see the spirits of those the driver has killed/driven off the road be resurrected by the badger than to see the horse get crushed by the badger.
P.S. Happy April Fools Day

[spoiler=Roleplay stuff pt. 3]I do suppose that if this apocalypse hadnt been the second in two months, then perhaps this apocalypse wouldnt have been as apocalyptic. Sadly, all the rune building materials were spent, the ports bombed, border control problematic, and the airports too slow. All this would amount to is the fall of Estebere.
Alex, that you? Whats your head doing sticking out of the archives- ohhhhhh, right. What did you figure out?
Well, for one thing, some joggers saw a weird figure walking around outside Adrad, carrying boxes of blue chalk,
I suppose thats where the chalk went during the exchange. Of course, this does mean that whatevers doing this has had access to Estebere for a while,
Also, I found that the entire area around Hare Hill has disappeared, while the town itself was spared. Same in Carrotson,
Wait, werent those both sites that got nuked?
Yeah. Why do you ask?
I may as well assume theres gonna be a correlation, considering we have no other footholds to grab on,
Fair. And what about the problems with Ancient Refugi text?
Working on it. Cant seem to find the right chapter though,
Great. Ill see you soon,
Its still funny to watch them scramble.[/spoiler]

I am confused as to why that random blank map was submitted as our regional map. We could at least give the sad island a fun shape (like a giant narwhal).
Delta Vega Iv
How are you seeing it? When I click the map button on the region page there's nothing, although I realise that could be just cause I'm on mobile.
Typica, The Blue Fire
Huh. I saw one earlier today but dont see anything now. Maybe I ended up clicking on the wrong thing before.

Aww, I saw it was posted on 2. April and hoped it was real.

Honestly, the current one is more traditional in my taste

Oops. I didn't know making a map would automatically splash it across the main regional page. Apologies. However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to remove it...

I tried to endorse it but it said I couldn't because we weren't in the same region...? :confuse: I think this feature is broken lol

Delta Vega Iv, Typica, Melenavenia, Araine, Portmanteau, Tiralta, Falafelandia, Jazur, Uwuguaya
I don't understand how to add nations to the map, either. That seems to be the requirement behind endorsing a map - you've got to be "on" the map to endorse it. I keep coming close (Melenavenia, I nearly succeeded in giving you the entirety of the sea), but in the end I always run into a devastating error message on the final step and can't proceed further.
Alas. I think you're right, it's just broken. Glad you like the turtles, though lol
Delta Vega Iv, Melenavenia, Araine, Tiralta, Falafelandia, Jazur, Ullrani, Uwuguaya, The Blue Fire
With luck, it will all be over soon.
Delta Vega Iv, Typica, Portmanteau, Tiralta, Jazur, Uwuguaya
Agree. It gives too much power to one overseeing entity. Plus, it would require a lot of ressources as of way of stocking the data, being able to wire the data from all the World Assembly and Im not even going to start on the serious piracy threat that this resolution aims to control.
govs should invest in their own anti id theft programs.
