Hello, everyone, I have a couple of announcements to make. First, I am nominating The Gilded Star to the position of Vice Delegate. He has been a trusted and valued member of the community and I feel that he would be wonderful in the position. I will be bringing the nomination to the Regional Assembly very soon for him to go through the confirmation process.
Second, I will be implementing an Endorsement Cap of 5 below the delegate starting in 7 days. I feel this is a fair starting point to help ensure regional security. If you are within 5 endorsements of me, please either reduce your endorsements or raise mine by next week, thank you.
Finally, I will be looking into starting a dialogue with gameside residents to understand what people would like to see from both World Assembly matters and Gameside matters. There are a couple of things I will be working on to facilitate that dialogue that I expect will be coming out in the coming days.
Thank you and Semper Thalassia!
ps, to answer the poll, money, dear boy, and I would become the most chaotic neutral guy in the history of the world >:]

I'd pick the governor of my state. I've become a bigger fan of Andrew Cuomo by the week during the Trump years, and especially during the worst of covid in the state. He displayed incredible leadership every single day.
I chose healing/regeneration as a superpower, and I'm not sure I could be an evil healer, unless I healed evil-doers exclusively, or withheld my powers from those in need.

Why would I vote for someone that votes against my interessts in World Assembly?
Honeydewistania, Nationific, Maxilains
Er, double post.
Maxilains
To preserve regional security. I can understand being reluctant to increase the voting power of someone who will vote against your interests, but it is imperative to the security of the region to have a stable and secured delegate position. And, if you are curious about why Aren is voting the way he is, I'm sure you can send him a message asking about it.
Nationific, Ayeinc, Maxilains, Britannyy, Grey County
If you have any specific concerns or questions about the way I have voted in the current proposals before the WA I would be more than willing to hear them out at your convenience, my telegrams are always open to any resident of Thalassia.
After the confirmation process with my nominee for the VD position I intend to pursue a policy that will allow Citizen and Resident input in how I vote as the delegate. Until that point, however, I decided to vote my conscience with matters before the WA. I am more than willing, however, to listen to the concerns and wants of the people.
As for why endorsing me would be good for the region, it ensures regional stability and security by ensuring the duly elected Delegate of the region's position is secure and that I can take administrative action on the RMB if needed in the event of, say, an invasion.
Finally, in future please do not double post. I am willing to turn a blind eye this one time but going forward, editing your post with anything you wish to add or waiting for another post would be better and any further double posts will be subject to the usual administrative response.
Thank you and I hope you have a nice day!

The Constitutional Court approved the introduction of National Abortion Awareness Day, with most Clarkstanians welcoming it as other liberal and radical feminist groups protested in downtown Layton.It should be noted that at the end of October, demonstrations broke out against this holiday, where over 100 people were arrested in most Clarkstanian cities, where incidents and roadblocks broke out. All three Christian Churches praised the decision of the Constitutional Court.National Abortion Awareness Day will be the first Saturday in December.

Murder on the beach
[spoiler]
The inhabitants of Harfleur woke up frightened this Thursday morning, after the bodies of a couple of tourists were found on Le Valise beach. The police were called and the bodies were taken to the morgue, where they will undergo a detailed analysis to determine the cause of death. However, a representative of the local police reported that the cause of death was caused by a third agent, which is why investigations were launched to ascertain who was behind the murder.
The attack is worrying, since Harfleur is an important tourist destination in Laeden and death could possibly scare off potential visitors. For this reason, local authorities have rushed to ensure that the city is ready to receive tourists at the end of the year, and that security will be reinforced in order to preserve the physical integrity of everyone. [/spoiler]
Universal Healthcare bill passes!
[spoiler]
The General Assembly of the Duchy of Arandor voted in favor of the Labor Party's project to universalize health care in the region. It will be up to the counties to build and maintain, at a minimum, a Basic Health Care Post in order to offer free treatment to the local population. The provinces of the region should create and maintain specialized care centers and hospitals in order to provide urgent and emergency care, as well as offering procedures of medium complexity. Finally, it remained for the Duchy to build and maintain facilities and hospitals that offer highly complex treatment for patients with serious illnesses.
The new law also provides that 5% of the revenues of counties, provinces and the Duchy are to be used for health. The opposition expressed its enormous discontent, arguing that the measure will further weaken the financial condition of the Duchy, already compromised with investments in other areas.
Nevertheless, the population celebrated the measure, with public celebrations in the main cities of the Duchy, especially Illyria and Volyngrad. Representatives of social movements and left-wing parties from the Duchy of Caledonia sent congratulations to Arandor for the bold move. However, the rest of the country is still waiting to see the results of the measure, and Arandor is considered a kind of testing laboratory for bolder public policies like this. [/spoiler]
Nïmes Musical Festival is coming
[spoiler]
The nationally famous Nïmes Music Festival will take place next week. Young people from all over the country are looking forward to the event, which promises to be the most pompous in history: 50 bands and artists from more than 20 countries will perform on the festival's stages.
The Nïmes Musical Park, where the festival will take place, has an impressive 250 acres of open area, with more than 100 chemical toilets spread out and 30 restaurants to meet the needs of visitors. Two hotels are also located within the property with a capacity for 5,000 guests, although it is estimated that the number of visitors will be at least twenty times higher.
The Municipality of Nïmes guarantees that the city is more than prepared to receive tourists, and that it is working together with the festival organization to ensure the greatest comfort and convenience for all. The Gendarmerie sent a reinforcement of 200 police officers to assist local security and the city's public transport will also receive an increase in buses and vans to facilitate commuting.
With tickets worth D$ 25, it is estimated that the event will generate revenue of D$ 80 billion, in addition to a huge injection of resources for the hotel chain and local commerce as a whole. Nevertheless, local authorities continue to work to ensure that the event does not end up becoming widespread confusion, as episodes of vandalism, violence and excessive consumption of drinks and drugs are trademarks of this festival.

Tvs all across Thalassia are tuned into a surprise announcement from the considred closed Grey County National News Service
"After a huge victory over Hopal Ii and securing a land split of Toerana The Democratic Kingdom of Grey County seemingly out fo nowhere informed Thalassia that they would be leaving but that they would return. After that, they went off the grid and disappeared until Yesterday when the nation rejoined Thalassia but no explanation was given. Today we are expecting an announcement from the new Interim Government of Grey County and here it is now, Ladies and Gentlemen the Interim Government of Grey County".
3 men and 2 women each in a military uniform walks up to the platform with 7 Grey County flags behind them
The man in the middle begins speaking "Ladies and Gentlemen here in Grey County and around Thalassia , Through the time away from Thalassia we have went through a test of our strength and liberty and we have now Pervailed. We have maintained strength even though we faced a mini civil war and completely lost our international presence. We under the Goal of restoring democracy and peace but without a monarch pervailed and the Monarch and former PM have agreed to step down and we are open to allowing them to emmigrate to any nation in Thalassia open to having them. The next step is to set up a constitution and we will be discussing the future of Hopal soon. Thank you and have a good night".

George Farrington's party wins parliamentary elections by landslide
The electoral comission has just released the final results of the parliamentary election held on November 8th, with 2.847.112 votes resgistered.
Final results shown 2.205.088 votes for the Patriotic bloc, a total of 77,45% of the total ballot, giving the party, headed by President George Farrington, 73 of 95 seats on dispute.
The second-largest party, the Progressive Alliance, of centrist ideology and a most liberal approach to the economy, earned 11,32% of the vote and will have 11 seats on the Federal Congress.
Independents and other smaller parties will together have 11 seats on the congress.
The 40 seats not elected by popular vote were also disputed under their own specific polling and/or nomination dynamics, and the consolidated of these seats gave 32 to the Patriotic Bloc, 2 to the Progressive alliance and 6 to independents, no smaller party gained any of these seats.
On a consolidated basis, the Patriotic Bloc will have 105 of 135 seats, while the Progressive alliance will have 13 seats, the remaining 17 seats being filled by 11 independents and 6 minor party members.
Political analysts believe that this result confirms the support of George Farrington's policies, specially regarding his export-led industrialization policy and his hard-line stance on crime, especially against farmers. The new legislature will give the government a very comfortable margin for any reform or ammendment to the constitution, the new majority obtained is widely seen as a vote ofr stability and status quo, under which massive economic growth is being achieved, with progress being made also on the social area.

The Interim Government Walks Out and The room falls silent
The Man in the Middle Begins speaking "My fellow citizens, Tonight we address the future of Hopal Ii. After careful consideration, we have decided to retain control over Hopal Ii as agreed to in the armistice that brought the Hopal-Grey war to an end. We have decided to appoint my colleague Jamie Smith, a member of the Interim Government as the Acting Governor of Hopal Ii. We decided upon this because even though Hopal Ii managed themselves during our absence we don't believe they or we are ready for their independence. We know that many Citizens of Hopal may be disappointed but we do this in the best interests of everybody. We, Will, be sending in the Hopalese Guard to regain control of Hopal Ii but we hope that they don't need to use force to regain what is rightfully ours. Thank you and may god bless Grey County

Parliament is gathered for an emergency session, sitting at the head of the chamber is Harrison Reid, the confirmed Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Hopal.
Vice Governor John Stophoe speaks: "My fellow Hopalians, I know that emotions are high, I know how you are feeling tonight." the Vice Governor stops for a moment then continues on "I hope for the good of the nation that Jamie Smith is a good man, and I hope to meet with him soon. I know that you may resent the Hopalese Guard, and that you may feel that our nation is under attack. But I ask you to remain calm, to not attack these guards, they are our neighbours, they are our friends, and they are fellow human beings. In return I ask that the Hopalese guard that harass Hopalians, whether they be citizens, or residents, under the provisions stated in the armistice, all Hopalians have a right to peaceful protest. I know that this may seem like a step in the wrong direction for the cause of independence. But we have shown that we are capable of peaceful self governance, and I hope to achieve full autonomy by the year's end. Today I jump-start the steps to independence: I am announcing that our two members in the Grey County parliament will be resigning, and that Hopal will not participate in any future Grey County elections. This is not out of protest, I want to make that crystal clear, we are just doing our part for independence, and as an independent nation we will not participate in foreign elections. I will commit myself to the cause of independence, it is my commitment to you, and is my life's goal. Thank You and Have a Good Night."

You've already lived through worse and more widespread fear this year. Not everyone in 1999 was freaking out--older people and preppers mostly. Gen X-ers like myself either didn't believe it was the end of world, didn't care if it in fact was, or secretly hoped for it.
I don't know. I read too much about syphilis and cholera and dust pneumonia to really want to go much further back in time than the mid-1990's. Sometimes I like to think of going back in time and writing the Star Wars prequels so George Lucas can't make those specific movies. Because I'm a nerd and those ruined everything.

A Shocking Announcement
The nation was pretty much minding it's business, the military this time now again back to regular schedule and routing after their war games. Nothing new from the people down in a downtown area to the current owners of big companies as they are trying to either improve or make a new technology at all, just a new regular day in the nation of The Outer Union... Until now where all televisions turned to the news. Everyone was confused on what is going on, since usually the television automatically turns to news when a large or important news everyone needs to listen as everyone was waiting. A tall and very much formal female came up to the stand, wearing business formal clothes in a podium outside a Congress building and was getting ready to speak:
[list]
[I]"Hello everyone in the nation, and of course everyone in our region of Thalassia. This is senator Lumi Light Jr. From the democratic party, everyone is pretty much a bit confused on what is going on and I understand. The following announcement was very much from the help of some of you great citizens, our congress, our senators, and our president of course: We the republic of The outer Union will have special elections for all the positions with the exception of the president and vice president of the National Republic. The current electives that are on office will announce for reelection or last term in congress next week. The date is confirmed for elections is the 15 of December and we shall make sure all polling stations, Postal Service, and Early votes are ready.

November 19 (Statehood Day) of the Federal Republic of Clarkstan, the day the constitution was created that created today's organization of the country.As every year, numerous events were held, so today in the suburbs of Layton in front of the citizens was held a police exercise with an emphasis on simulating a terrorist attack with the victims. It showed the readiness of the police force.Today's constitution called November 19 provides for a framework of the Federal Republic of Clarkstan based on Christian freedoms.Also, the President and the Prime Minister laid wreaths in memory of all the fighters killed in the 1940/45 Civil War at the Eastern Cemetery in Layton.
Traditionally, a march of patriotic groups was held from Rolt Park Square to National Guard Square.
A new People and Justice Party was established in Layton today, founded by historian Jonathan Gill.According to the program, it is a Christian Democrat, it stands for a market economy, it is a populist and conservative party.Analysts claim that the party will have enough time to profile itself until the presidential elections in 2022 and the parliamentary elections in 2024.The People and Justice Party has similarities with the ruling party, but experts say that it will hardly be able to be equal to the People's Republican Party "Christian Alliance".

Civil War Near?
Today during a meeting of the Interim Government at the Government Building an explosion was heard and immediately the national guard took the Interim Government to an undisclosed location. All across the television and radio stations, this message was heard.
"We are the Old Order and we did not agree to step down. We shall never surrender, we shall never give up and we most certainly will never acknowledge the fraudulent Interim Government as a true Government. We have recruits by the thousand and if they don't allow us to tell our story there WILL be war. We will return to power to bring stability and to bring back traditional values. We hate the new little council they have and we are already in preparation for WAR. We love the old order and we hate what this nation has become and any citizens want to defy us they will die".
The interim government is in an emergency meeting and the army is on high alert.

That my dad is hanging in there at almost 78...is in fact healthier than me.
I try to be a fairly grateful person. I read not long after my mom died that spending 15 minutes or so of experiencing gratitude toward the good things of your life each day effectively rewires your brain. More positive, more satisfied with life, even better sleep. Copypaste that phrase or just "power of gratitude" for some interesting reading on the subject. It works. At least I'm not the miserable chaotic being I was earlier in life, and pretty sure it's the gratitude that fixed it.

Everyday she finds new ways to brighten my day, to listen to me abs actually hear and understand who I am. It's a new relationship I don't know where it's going to lead but I'm falling for her more everyday. And I'm thankful that could happen to me this year after everything.

I'll go with autumn. I also like the seasonal transitions, when the air and the energy start to change, regardless of which seasons are involved. It's a good feeling.
That's the best, Grey. The idea of shady vegans is really amusing me.
The SEC have received a complaint from the Democracy Watchdog about the alleged fraud by the Extreme Vegans Party (EVP). The SEC will conduct an investigation immediately.

The Interim Government has released this statement
We are deeply worried and confused by the actions of the so-called "old order", we are also deeply saddened by the riots in eastern Grey county and we believe civil war may be near. We are not taking this lightly and Operation Law has begun which will maintain law and order in Eastern Grey County. We are planning on holding the elections on December 10th but with this, that may have to be pushed back. We are honored to announce that Gregory Solpe has been named Acting Secretary of Defence and we have taken this step because we believe it to be necessary to be prepared for any outcome. We promise that we will restore order and we will stop at nothing to stop us from ushering in a new era for Grey County. As part of Operation Law, we are moving the National Defence forces to EDR 3 which means war possible. We are also enacting Operation Bolster and Operation Load. With these, we believe we will be ready for war. We can confirm it is the Former king and Former PM that are behind the old order and we request support from our allies in the potential conflict and on a side note, we congratulate Julie Payes on her uncovering of the election fraud by The Extreme Vegan Party and thank her for her service to deomcracy.
Thank you and have a good day,
The Interim Government of Grey County

Hello, everyone, I just wanted to take a moment to ask you all to endorse our new Vice Delegate, The Gilded Star! Endorsing him will go a long way to ensuring regional security in the event of any potential unforeseen circumstances. Thank you all and I hope you all have a nice day!

Allow me to personally reassure the Thalassian people that, with my command over Undeath, our beloved Delegate Arenado will continue to faithfully serve the Thalassian people, in one form or another, for the foreseeable future.

You forget the free chicken nuggets to keep Arenado going, in whatever form he may be in.

Greetings Thalasians! Just wanted to ask: where do I post the story after I finish it?

great. Also, how long does it need to be?
Can I post it online and link to it on the discord?
There is no length requirement I believe just tell a complete story in whatever form ^^ I could be wrong but I think we left it open ended on purpose.
I'm not running the contest but my intention if mine is above the discord word cap is to post a link to my Google doc so I'd say just do it that way ^^

I know I'm breaking the rules but I didn't want to put this with the other post sorry
QotD!
Is there an item you would be willing to risk your sanity on black Friday for? How much would it have to be on sale for you to do it?
