Nobody's gonna raid us, and war is not a thing in NS. Our delegate position has no power besides the WA vote, so it'd be pointless for people to do so. We're also raider aligned ourselves and frequently support other raider militaries, so they'd really be shooting themselves in the foot xD

Does this region have a discord server?

It does indeed, the link is in the World Factbook Entry of the region.

I would like to take a moment to encourage WA members in the STU who haven't already done so to endorse our delegate Antarctic SARNZ. We currently have 55 WA members and less than 40 of them have done so as of this moment. For a technocratic region such as ours, achieving only 70.9% efficiency is inadequate.

This one's right! Get endorsing, everyone. If you're not in the WA, join the WA (providing you only do so on one nation). And don't just endorse the delegate, cross-endorse. Endorse everyone!

I'll run a regional TG thing asking people to join and endorse. Hopefully will get us boosted a bit.

Go to Settings, then Telegrams: Preferences, then Block All Recruitment.

Halo's a friend of mine, and it is a mean-spirited attack on a player who's been a very positive influence on the game.

Not sure it qualifies as adulthood, given how old some players are... my 5 years don't hold a candle to some. It's a nice threshold though :)

Yeah, that's unfortunate, but it was likely to come to that. My hope is that our friends and allies will be drafting a better version of the original commendation to try to get through, and that it will succeed.

Not to be flashy- but being first in automotive manufacturing made me really happy today! Fits me, and coincidentally the lore of MiriAi very well :)

I'm going to assume this was intended as some kind of spammy smear given that you jumped in, said it, then left immediately. Still, the spelling is so poor that it's genuinely hard to tell whether you meant "no" or "one." XD

Either way, not the smartest thing to jump in and spam at us. I mean, first of all, this is not a communist region. It should probably be clear from the whole "Social Technocratic" aspect of the name that this is in fact a Social Technocratic region, but hey. Other than that, it's a remarkably ignorant statement ("no" or "one"), given the myriad differences between the ideologies and their methods of practical implementation present in all historical examples.

We tend to keep the RMB uncluttered though

Bolslania wrote:There is a roleplay server in the Discord I believe

That was discontinued due to lack of interest.

Microsa wrote:Why we don't roleplay like other regions?

We do like to keep the RMB clean of make-believe, but the primary reason is that this isn't an RP region. It's a GP region, focussed far more on governance and R/D.

I'm kinda new...what does GP and R/D mean exactly?

Kharvilia wrote:I'm kinda new...what does GP and R/D mean exactly?

GP is gameplay, RP is role play. IDK about R/D.

As an citizen of a country that does not celebrate Christmas, we have New Year as our main winter holiday.

So Happy New Year to all of you, STU!

You are the only region I was member of since creation of my nation back in June, and I wish all of you great holidays and to spend time well with your loved ones!

Somewhat unsurprisingly I'd totally be a shabby but lovable looking thylacine, with the same name as my first pet, Scrappy.

I guess I would be some kind of very lazy dog. Maybe a tired Huntaway or Header. And given my pet naming habits, I’d probably just be called Vincent.

Congratulations to our new People's Tribune Wired Algorithm! I look forward to working alongside you on whichever projects you opt to focus on.

Unlike certain election shenanigans (that I totally didn't get distracted by), here in the STU I execute my will rationally and consistently. Luckily nobody's gonna be storming anything here, hmm? :P

I'd like to thank Wymondhiam for running on his solid and impressive platform. I would also like to announce that the willingness he has shown to improve upon such an essential service for the STU, Wym will be coming on board to manage recruitment and integration.

Thank you and thanks STU for your votes! I'm honoured to serve you as the People's tribune ~

You are indeed welcome on the Discord, as there's some activities there !

Besides, I remember you can use the "Suggestions box" on Discord if you have an Idea you want to see applied on the STU! Or something you'd find good.

I also want to congratulate and thank Wym for his nomination in charge of the new recruitment and integration program!

Hmmm, maybe since you don't rely on private companies to get money, you raise the needs for taxes to fulfil the economic needs of your country, I'd say, hence the raise of your taxations!
