Round 3 has begun!

Vote, lads, vote and be proud!

One spud, One Vote!
No representation without . . . WTF??!!
These Again!
Unsolicited telegrams and interlopers here in the RMB forum really have no shame, and no honor!
Is this normal?
Why would I abandon my own Region, and its illustrious Spud-Minister, to vote for them? Are they crazy?
Wankers.

Salaxans , I request for an increase of the shipment of potatoes from 1 potato to 3 potatoes. This influx of additional potatoes will surely end the nationwide famine of my country!
Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Alekseandrea, Eudaiimonia
Indeed, they are truly of the evil kind. Stop them we shall, with glorious votes for glorious spuds! Use all your nations, ladies, gentlemen, and others!
Matrixulated, Red Dusk, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Alekseandrea, Eudaiimonia
Sad to see what has happened to DEN. They by no means were considered "friends" or anyone I would support, but they had the right to exist. Hutton Il, his followers, and most importantly of all, Lord Hutton above all, condemn the acts of the Moderators. Shameful.
Praise be

I'm back! Woooooooo! ROUND THREE!!!!!!!

Unless, of course, you've actually lived under such a government, in which case you'd know for a fact that it ain't...
Took me thirty years to recover from my last bout with communism, not willing to try it again...

Damnit! How did I forget to mention the cheese?!

Hey, back off, this is potato country, no tacos here! :P

No bribery, no vote.

There's only one choice for Secretary-General, Spiritus, and that is The Salaxalans! Vote Early, Vote Often, Vote Salaxalans!
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, Red Dusk, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Alekseandrea, Eudaiimonia
Vote for Salaxalans! When he wins, he's going to provide us all with potatoes! Think of all the fries, crisps, chips and wafers!!
Vote Early, Vote Often, Vote Salaxalans!

Surely this spamming orgy somehow violates my rights, even curtailed as they might be during 'special events'...
Matrixulated
You think that is spamming?
Oh, sweet summerchild.

Yesterday I would have agreed.
Today I do not.

Hi! Welcome! :D
Matrixulated, The Imagisphere, Amalgam Of Atoms
You joined right in the middle of our crazy April Fool's Day event, so be prepared for things to be a bit nuts until it ends. :P
Matrixulated
I'll be ready.
Matrixulated
30-years?
Then that raunchy picture you sent me can't be you at all!
Next you'll be telling me you're not actually an exotic dancer who is only stripping to pay their college tuition.
And I bet you're not really a lumberjack either!
I thought the Internet was a place for truth, sharing, and knowledge . . .
I feel violated.

Welcome to Spiritus!
A bit potato methinks!!!
What is this nonsense about fruit? !
Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Eudaiimonia
Hi there.
Matrixulated
Fruit?
He said a bit nuts, man, NUTS!
Whatever. I get it. Fruit, nuts, potatoes . . . they're all foodstuffs.
And as we all know, comrade, all foodstuffs are equal . . . except some are [I]more[/I] equal than others!
M.
The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Rogue Lumberjacks, Alekseandrea, Eudaiimonia
Fruits grow on trees or bushes.
Thus nuts are fruit.
I rest my case.
Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Eudaiimonia
Waaaaaaaaahh!!
I'm so confused right now.
I feel druped!
I thought a culinary nut was a reference to Gordon Ramsey.

Twasn't me, M., I am a lumberjack, and no, I don't sing that silly-sh*t Monty Python song, either. I'd recheck your spam filter, I've never Emailed you at all. And if really think that the Internet is a place for truth, sharing and knowledge, I have a bridge in Brooklyn you might like to buy...
Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Eudaiimonia
Don't forget your pro-Salaxalans propaganda posts!
He isn't going to be elected by himself!

Potatoes for all!

The Once in a Blue Moon Newsletter Issue #2
Hello Ladles, Jellyspoons, and other kitchen utensils! Its a very exciting time in Spiritus isnt it? I hope you all had a lovely April Fools Day. Now even though its Spring Mother Nature has decided to make it snow outside today, so I decided to write a short little missive about something. What was it again? Hmmmm OH RIGHT!
ELECTIONS ELECTIONS ELECTIONS!!!!!!!!
There are a lot of elections going on in Spiritus these days. Im sure most of you know about this special event thats going on, and dont worry, well get to that. But first we must talk about our own Spiritus elections. We have elections :O?? You may ask (especially you, Toby). Yes, we do. And these are very important elections too, not only are they for the Regional Assembly, a robust Legislative body that only occasionally starts food fights, and not only are they for who will become the next President of Spiritus, but were also having an election for Warlord of the Hobo Squids, a position I think youll all agree is quite important.
Our President for a whole year, President Rogamark, is not running again, so we have two fresh faces looking for their chance at the Presidency: Mr. RedDusk and Mr. Benway. Voting will remain open until the Fourth, and every single citizen can and should vote. If you arent a Citizen of Spiritus yet why not?!? Get on our forums and join the fun already!
POTATOESSSSSSSS
As you might have heard, the elections for World Assembly Secretary General are going on now, and our very own The Salaxalans has made it to the final five. If you havent voted for him already, do it! If you somehow arent convinced that The Salaxalans is the best candidate for the job, then I hope this interview I conducted in his Potato-based underwater Headquarters (the Spudmersible) can help. Heres how the discussion went:
Toms: How does it feel to have made it so far in the elections?
The Salaxalans: Kind of surprising. But potatoes have strong appeal across all demographics!
Toms: In what form do you best enjoy the Potato?
The Salaxalans: Baked potato, but scooping out the innards and smooshing them with a fork and eating the skin! With butter and a bit of salt! :D
Toms: What do you have to say to those who believe that the Potato simply isnt viable on the world stage?
Salaxalans: They are wrong. Clearly, with our second place position, potatoes can have a strong global presence.
Toms: Given the current economy and the state that many peoples financial situations are in, would you recommend a 401(k) or a Potato?
Salaxalans: A potato. Potatoes can feed your family and be used as a defensive projectile weapon. Their versatility clearly places them above a 401(k) and mere money.
Toms: Alright, do you have anything to say to your supporters?
Salaxalans: Thank you, PotatoPeople, for everything youve done to help the campaign! Spread the word about potatoes! LETS MAKE NATIONSTATES POTATO AGAIN!!
Toms: Excellent, thank you!
Salaxalans: Thank you!
And there you have it. Vote for The Salaxalans!
Tales from the RMB
Once again, my brave Junior Journalists left their hive and started buzzing around the Regional Message Boards. Looking for something that represents our fine Region. One and a half came back more or less alive this time, though absolutely covered in Mash Potatoes. While they later expired when they realized they actually had become Mashed Potatoes and should no longer be alive, they did write this on the wall of their containment chamber:
So there you have it. Im keeping this one short today so you can all get back to watching The Salaxalans get more and more votes, but I do have one more announcement: The Once in a Blue Moon Newsletter is looking for more writers! If you want to write about, well, anything at all really, send me a message or contact me in the chatroom, Im sure we could come to some arrangement. Youll probably even be able to skip over the Junior Journalists stage! Anyway, until next time, have a very soft-baked week!

I am happy to see that [nation=short]THE SALAXALANS[/nation] has solidly taken 2nd place from [nation=short]Kaalmi[/nation].
I watched the "debates" (bs Amin spam fest). And if [nation=short]Caelapes[/nation] didn't already have my vote, I'd vote for [nation=short]The SALAXALANS[/nation] given his vocal & admirable anti-Amin stance.
Good luck in the rest of the elections.

Good Job, Guys! Keep Up The Good Work!!

The billions upon billions of people/citizens and other ranking DENizens, of the hundreds and hundreds of militant raider states that formerly resided in DEN, having been cleansed from the face of NationStates, are now undergoing systematic organised brainwashing and decontamination, before either serving as soldiers in our armies; becoming "cannon fodder", or serving as food on our plates, and becoming our people's fodder! Mmmm billions upon billions of BRAAIIINNNNZZZZZ!! - Talk about the mother of all feasts!

The upside is that the region I may or may not be an officer in got a slew of new, active and eager to participate refugees. More rejects is never a bad thing, when your entire BBQ industry relies on an inflow of people.

Everyone please vote Potato. By the way, I am new to this region. But, vote potato!
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Alekseandrea, Greater Madaloria
We are gaining on #1. It might be time to start an eleventh hour spam blizzard on supporters of the three lower ranked candidates, something along the lines of their man can't win but combined we can whip #1....
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Alekseandrea, Greater Madaloria, Eudaiimonia
I agree with you, "The Free Commune States of Rogue Lumberjacks." We can totally win the election, but it will be hard to take down number 1. Remember everyone, GO POTATO! WOO HOO
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, Alekseandrea, Greater Madaloria, Eudaiimonia
HERE WE GO! WIN OR LEAVE!

Potatoes have my holy blessing, though unfortunately, due to the secular and evil manner of the election, my infinite power has no say. Until the time comes when I destroy the WA in holy fire, the only Huttonians that can vote live the lives of space hermits and only partake in world government to vote against anything that doesn't start with "repeal".
Praise be.

Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Eudaiimonia, Damask Holding
I spy a lot of concern in various anarchist/commie/leftist/socialist regions about the rise of "a potato" against their "more serious" candidate - Though I did see one citizen of the TCB stating that the simple policy of "a potato for all", so as to "ensure that each and every person in each nation receives one potato" could be viewed as based on a very socialist principle that could stamp out world hunger!
Matrixulated, Rogue Lumberjacks
Tried a telegram to each leader/candidate. Kaalmi turned me down flat. At least I tried...
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, Greater Madaloria
Hahah, just 239 more votes to go. In half an hour. Oh well
NONSENSE! We can still do this!!! :D
Matrixulated, The Imagisphere, Greater Madaloria, Eudaiimonia
I say we show the others what good potatoes can do!
Like taking four days to make potato wedges (drenched in sauce mornay and thick-cut hickory-smoked bacon bits), using potatoes as weapons (either in a state-sanctioned cannon or by tossing like rocks) or by bonding families by peeling potatoes.
Potatoes give life, give life to NS again!
(I'm too small to vote. D:
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, The Imagisphere
About 1 minute left.
It's over.
You got far though.

I'll take this moment to also advise all citizens of Spiritus that we *do* still have the Spiritus General Elections going on for Executive, Regional Assembly, and Warlord of the Hobo Squids, as well.
Not a citizen? Apply on the forums, it's not too late to gain citizenship and make your voice heard in this election.
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, Alekseandrea
^^^^^^^^ This is the thing that will still affect every single one of you next week, let alone next month. I highly encourage doing it.
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, Red Dusk
The Run-Off will prevail! In the meantime, go vote in the Executive Elections yes.
Matrixulated
I'm going to write a WA proposal to abolish the office of Secretary General. It's useless, and we won't even get potatoes.
Matrixulated, Pixelpark, Rogue Lumberjacks
Let's pray that nothing more is changed other than a badge to the winner.
Sal, our entire region is proud to be an early supporter of your efforts during the second round onward, and to recognize early on that people needed to unite in order to win. While close, it did not happen fast enough. Despite it, we know that the future is bright.
From all of us in Illuminati, best of luck.

Thank you very much, [nation=short]Rhyphix[/nation]! Your support was greatly appreciated. We almost had it; the race was a lot of fun. :P

Well done Spiritus, very well done indeed!
Our efforts to vote our founder into the WA Sec. Generalship position just fell a little short. Sadly, we did not win out.
But I for one am super-proud that we got as far as we did.
Thanks to all!

Just to clarify, The Salaxalans is not the founder, just our (very long serving) delegate. :)
Tim-Opolis, Matrixulated, Bonaether, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus
Indeed, I'm somehow the Founder of this wonderful place, so while the Founder was very involved in the campaign, The Salaxalans, our Delegate who is without a doubt not me, was our main candidate and did the most effort overall ^_^
Just in case you need proof he's not me, you can't have two WA nations, and mine currently occupies the delegacy of Osiris ;)

Congratulations to the 2nd Place, The Salaxalans!
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, Damask Holding
Hi guys. I submitted my proposal to the General Assembly to abolish the office of of Secretary General. Unfortunately, I didn't bother going to the forums and having them help me improve it, but I'd greatly appreciate anyone who'd like to point out any mistakes sending me a telegram, so I'm a bit more experienced for future resolutions. I'm not sure that what the proposal asks is actually going to get done by Max Barry, assuming it reaches the quorum and is passed in front of the GA.
Nobody gets a free WA potato :(. We have to share potato equally between hole population of the WA.
