I was afraid you were going to CTE...... so this is a relief. The war in Ozovia progressed further and peace talks in Ausdonia were started but the war has been put "on hold" because most of the people that were part of it got banned from Thalassia because of off site non endorsed chat usage. (You can see the post here https://www.nationstates.net/page=rmb/postid=37592900 ) And just today, the new baseball RP was announced by Arenado! The post is just above mine.

Other than that there has not been much activity in the RP. We had a presidential election after Rockiberg resigned (don't know if you were here for that or not?) and Cormactopia Prime got elected!

I think that's everything, but I may have missed something.

Hope this helps!

Also, Welcome Kinvor! I hope you enjoy your time in Thalassia!

Just for full disclosure I do have a team in the Sports RP but I will not be eligible for RP rewards since I am running it and that would be a conflict of interest. As an example of a factbook, however, I did make one about my team, the Arenado Kings! Hope you all enjoy it and have a nice day! Also, if you are considering joining the Sports RP check out the announcement dispatch on the World Factbook Entry!

Hope I'm doing this right. This is my first RP post and hopefully a good chance to build my lore up even more. Hope y'all enjoy.

[spoiler=A Public Broadcast From Radio Zeneslav English]- You're listening to Radio Zeneslav English, It's half past 1 in Cśevaljsk, time for the news.

- *Radio Zeneslav News Jingle Plays*

- «Radio Zeneslav News, English.»

- The Ministry of Information has finished a map of Zeneslav and its surrounding territories.

- A terrible accident has occurred at a level crossing in the south

- Cold fronts continue through the Cśevàly District

- The Ministry of Information has finished its charting of the nation of Zeneslav and it's surrounding areas. While no specifics have been noted yet, due in part to the ministry's small size and large demands, it is set to become the first ever map the country has seen since its inclusion in the Soviet Union. The Minister of Information Andrejà Dmìtrjèva says the map will release next week, and that she's excited about the implications.

- A terrible accident has occurred between a train and a lorry at a level crossing this evening in Zeneslav's southern Kìljèv district today, near the village of Donovàsk. According to railway cameras, the driver ignored warnings and lighted signals and drove through the crossing, where it was struck by a cargo train at speed. The driver, who has yet to be identified by medical professionals, was airlifted to Bòrjagràd Emergency Treatment Centre immediately after the incident. He is expected to make a full recovery. Rail lines along the track, including lines 4, 5, Green, and 8, as well as most Tour lines, will be out of business while the track is being rebuilt and the damaged train removed, but alternate routes will be available at no additional cost.

- Cold fronts continue to move into the Cśevàly district, deeply impacting Cśevàljsk residents. Expect lows below 15°C in most parts of the district and icy conditions on roads and sidewalks. The National Health and Safety Administration advises residents that frostbite can occur after 7 minutes of exposure to outdoor conditions. Meteorologists predict the weather to improve in the coming weeks, followed by a decent summer starting sometime in mid March.

- That's all for the news today. We'll pick it back up with more of todays hits after the commercial break, on Radio Zeneslav English

- «Hi. I'm Klavjèr from Karglàss. You see that up there? That chip looks tiny and insignificant. Well come with me and see what happens. A chip is made of thousands of micro-cracks, and a strong jolt on the road may turn it into a crack! Still think it's nothing to worry about? Now, if that was your car, of course Karglàss would replace the windscreen for you, but that'd cost you thousands and boost your insurance up the wall. If you call Karglàss as soon as a chip appears, we can come to you and usually repair the windscreen without replacing it. We inject our special resin, and in just thirty minutes the result is almost invisible, and the windscreen is strong again. And not only that, if you have Full Coverage, most insurance companies will cover it, and it won't effect your no claims bonus, so a Karglàss repair is usually free. Don't wait until it's too late. Call us now, or book online at www.karglass.ze!

You're doing great, this was fun to read, and well written. The only thing I would say, is to maybe don't mention the soviet union, because it does not exist in Thalassia , because as you know we have our own map. On the whole though, it was quite good.

Well "false information" is fairly self explanatory imo. Good natured is meant to be a catch all clause to prevent people trying to pick loopholes in the law. Things that going against the spirit of an election and aren't explicitly prohibited elsewhere can be caught by the good natured part so as to ensure that we don't have to amend the law every time someone tries to get around it.

I wasn't as much asking for the definition of the words as to how you'd envision it in practice as well, sorry if I didn't make myself clear. How would you ensure that "false information" is enforced, and how would the moderating forces in an election fact check information being spread. As for "good natured," that's a very subjective term and can sometimes come down to someone's opinion. For Example:

Person A - Running in an Election

Person B - The Incumbent also running

Person C - an External observer.

Person A makes a comment about the incumbent administration, person C sees it as a perfectly acceptable comment that is critical of the way things appear to be ran, while Person B sees it as a jab at their governing skills and moves to ban Person A as they view the comment as a personal jab.

How could situations like that and similar be avoided, or is it just a curse that comes with the proposal?

Toerana Iii wrote:Snip

Realistically speaking, the incumbent would not be running their own election- that’s a provision that was already set in the constitution. Prime Minister runs Presidential elections, President runs Prime Minister elections. In the event the party meant to be running the election is unavailable, I run the election as the Founder.

In order for the running incumbent to ban someone in that scenario, they would have to be abusing their RO permissions (Border control in this case) to affect the election, which we’ve already stated is explicitly against the rules and could result in removal from the election. Furthermore, there are no provisions of the law that fully support that- and while you could make the argument they thought it was a breach of RMB rules, it would ultimately result in their immediate removal from the election and would ultimately show them in a less than pleasant light. And given the fact most IC bans can be appealed (and this would absolutely be an IC ban) it could be reversed.

Veaetmar, Zentata

Also, with regards to the question of false information that would ultimately be up to the discretion of the person in charge of running the election. Of course not every single statement would be fact checked but it would be up to the official in charge of running the election to decide what counts as false or not, but our intent is that only statements that are blatantly untrue would get action.

They started with the economy, by forcing you under the yoke of the state! Then they came after your civil rights, like your right to cars, to gambling, to having choice! I, if you elect me, will change all this mistreatment, all this abuse, of your rights, your rights to choose! I will admit, it could have been worse, and the government has handeled their outrageous mistakes well, on the whole. However if I was your leader, I would not make those mistakes, I would give you back what they have taken. And I would stop the spread of obvious dictatorship across all of Zentata! I would strongly regulate the spread of immigrants from war torn Ozovia and beyond, and I would start letting the people choose how to run the economy! I would start my term in office by removing socialism, and destroying the state owned enterprises that control us! {Applause and Cheering}. Let's do this, Zentata, let's Do It For Choice!"

Wilbur: "As you can see, Mr Banks is centering his campaign around giving the people back their "freedom", which will include, unbanning cars, returning to capitalism, and removing much of the governments regulation and programs.

Maryanne: "Without a doubt, he is, as always, a contender for the presidency."

Ryan: The Conservative campaign has been gaining traction over the past weeks, with 20% increase in the polls.

Wilbur: However, the far-right ZNP has been stealing some of their voters, so we will have to see how that plays out in the coming months.

Maryanne: The first debate will be hosted in two weeks, in the capital, Zylan.

Ryan: We will be back tomorrow with a spotlight on the smaller parties, like the greens, the grand party, and the torus party.

Wilbur: Thank you all, and good night.

Whew, I was going to right more, but I hit writers block. Good night Thalassia!

2020 seems to be a year of elections

Update on the security council resolution: The North Pacific Army has invaded/liberated the region in question; therefore if the outcome is for, then the result would be meaningless and that is why so many delegates are changing their votes (including Cormac I presume?)

Cormactopia Prime, Grasswhistle, Toerana Iii, Ayeinc

The Electoral Reform Act unanimously passed. Results can be viewed here.

Yep, I've changed my vote on the Security Council proposal at vote because of the changing circumstances.

Esslea Limitation of Inhumane Weaponry agrees with me, although I think it could be worded more specifically. I'm against the commendation of the Arconian Empire because of their onsite activities.

Time to boost the lore of fair Zeneslav yet again. Yes folks, it's time for

[spoiler=Another Public Broadcast from Radio Zeneslav English]

- Once again, that was up and coming Valàśnjev artist Mjkhajel with his new hit song "Gde tèt" He's been steadily making a name for both himself and his district, and he'll be representing Valàśnjev in the new TVZE show "Who's Got The Voice", coming to TV Zeneslav soon. Speaking of Valàśnjev, the new map of Zeneslav is out and available on Zeneslav's official factbook page for all to read and download.

- Good evening from Radio Zeneslav English, It's half past 1, time for the news!

- *Radio Zeneslav News Jingle Plays*

- «Radio Zeneslav News, English.»

- Lorry driver responsible for the Donovàsk crash arrested today.

- Thousands line up outside the ticket booth at Andrèj Źenejèv stadium

- Ministry of Transport held up due to border concerns.

- The lorry driver responsible for the rail crash near Donovàsk last week was arrested today at Borjagrad Emergency Treatment Centre. 47 year old Àndrej Dmjtrjèv was booked into Borjagràd city jail today after being discharged from hospital. He's been arrested on counts of failure to obey government signs and instructions and for endangering multiple lives, including his and the freight operator's. Borjagràd Police say he'll likely get a sentence of 5 years with a lifetime heavy driving ban, but specifics will be announced at his trial weeks from today. Rail lines in the area are back up and running, and reporting excellent commuting times.

- Baseball Fever has hit Zeneslav today after the Zeneslav National Baseball Team have announced their first international presentation in four years. The team has made national appearances, being one of the teams to participate in the National Baseball Championships, as well as hosting several baseball-related events. Now, the team has announced plans to participate in the Thalassian Baseball League. Paperwork has been filed and the games are set to begin on the 24th. First Baseman Hù Ljdòng told us earlier today:

- "This is a good thing for us. We need to get our name out there. We want to show that Zeneslav is a fun, yet challenging opponent, and that we won't back down."

- Fans are already rushing out to Andrèj Źenejèv Memorial Baseball Stadium to purchase tickets, which have gone for record prices. The Department of Recreation and Sports forbids the practice of scalping, and says it's been cracking down on high volume ticket buyers. As well as that, multiple businesses in the Cśevàljy district are preparing for tourism, hiring new staff and perfecting their recipes for Pjkèvnjk. The Ministry of the Treasury says that this Baseball storm will boost economy heavily in the days to come.

- The Ministry of Transport has announced its plans to retrofit and reorganize the current road system after the release of the official district map of Zeneslav, though they are currently held up with border disputes from neighboring territories. The Ministry of Transport and the Prime Minister are working with the Republic of Rockiberg, the Ausdonian Republic, and the Grand Duchy of Veaetmar to help resolve border issues, specifically that of location.

- "We can't just have a road and a border that leads out into an open field. We need to plan these things out. It's not that simple."

- Radio Zeneslav spokesperson Àndreja Granjslàva says it won't be that simple at all.

- That's it for the news on Radio Zeneslav English. After the break, it's more Mjkhajel and a trip down to the RZE 1 studio where we get a sneak peek at his latest chart. All coming up after the break, on Radio Zeneslav English.

- "At Magnus Heavy Transport, we're constantly refining and editing our designs to suit the world around us, and what better truck to refine than our award winning Nordstar lorry. Introducing the new, modern Nordstar. So modern, it doesn't have a windscreen. New high-tech cameras transmit crystal clear view to HD screens mounted in the cockpit, so not only can you see the road in beautiful colour and detail, you also have a full information hub before your very eyes. We also have mirrors replaced with cameras on the side, boosting clearance rate considerably. Embrace the tech that makes the world go round. Embrace Magnus. Ministry of Transport has yet to rate the Nordstar VIEW Edition. Do not attempt to drive the Nordstar without proper training or if cameras are broken or dirty. Keep your eyes on the road at all times."[/spoiler]

These are actually pretty fun to write. I enjoy it.
