Exotic Lemon

Civilisunio
[nation=short]Plugo[/nation] [nation=short]asturias_and_leon[/nation]
Oh he has easily 60 puppets. No telling which one he is checking, if he is still on.
Asturias And Leon, Civilisunio, Parakka Northland
I have like 2 that haven't CTE'd. Lol. When I was in westphalia I gained 2nd place in the elaction because of my tough stance on puppets and Having a strong patriotic mood.
Exotic Lemon
I have about 80. Only like 1 cted and I forgot the password
Civilisunio
That's cool!
Exotic Lemon
Revise that to closer to a 100.
Civilisunio
Plugo collects retired players accounts. If you have cted puppets you will never use again he and I will want them
Asturias And Leon, Civilisunio
That's cool. Ill tell you if a puppet cte's
Asturias And Leon, Exotic Lemon
Sure thing
Malcholm, Civilisunio, Parakka Northland
Not ethnicity. :P
I realized I originally put "race"... Yay! Race competition! XD
No. It's a surprise what exactly what that means, but anyone can do it. ;)
Don't worry, nobody knows what they're doing.
Basically everyone in our region said the only thing they only partially know is Trivia. :P
And since you guys also might get a team, (please? Otherwise it's just us and one other region, I think), if you do, please telegram the list of participants to me ASAP so we can get part 2 of preparing out of the way. :)
Forestavia, Civilisunio, Exotic Lemon
We have 7 members. We need one more.
Forestavia
Okay, cool! I'll join!
...
Wait... that's not allowed.
But when you get 1 more (assuming/hoping you do) let me know!
Forestavia
Could we bring someone from an embassy if we can't get the last member
Sure, if they aren't on another team. (but your region is preferred)
Asturias And Leon, Civilisunio, Parakka Northland
Thank you
Civilisunio, Exotic Lemon
We need one more person, anyone else want to join?
Asturias And Leon, Civilisunio
The Emperor's Advisors will have no direct political power in the region. They will have access to communications only. Their main role will be to give me their opinions about different things.
Where does the Prime Minister stand on this matter?
Where does the Viceroy stand on this matter?
With permission from both of you I will go ahead and create a temporary office. It will remain temporary until it is approved by the House of Lords or the House of Commons. In the event that both Houses reject the idea, I will then dismiss the two advisors. Does this sound fair?
Parakka Northland
Holã, Como estas?
Forestavia
You're crazy. How do you find the time to manage all those accounts?
Parakka Northland, Exotic Lemon
That's classified. I share like 70 of them and most are inactive
Forestavia, Asturias And Leon
Me not speaking Spanish
Civilisunio
Soy enfermo hoy dia. Y tu?
Civilisunio, Exotic Lemon
It's estoy. Not soy.
Forestavia, New Bacon
Pretty sure that means something else, doesn't it? ;)
Asturias And Leon, Civilisunio
Muchas gracias. Yo no se la diferencia entre los verbos "estar" y "ser". Yo estudio y estudio muchas pero comprendo nunca.
Exotic Lemon
Estoy is used for something temporary. Forest is not always sick. Soy implies something permanent, such as a name
Forestavia
Mi espanol no es Bueno. A veces comprendo
Forestavia
That's right! I remember now.
Exotic Lemon
i know how to order food and introduce myself.
in spanish i mean.
Soy plugo.
Hey since you're both on what you think of this?
how will the advisors be chosen?
I would like a little more information on what they do before I make a decision
There will be two of them and they will be appointed by me.
Well, I clearly don't speak Spanish. :P
I just realized enfermo means sick.
Oh? That must be inconvenient. I recommend learning how to do that in at least one other language.
Asturias And Leon, Exotic Lemon
Not saying you would, but couldn't you appoint two yes men?
Asturias And Leon
All they will do is give me advice and their opinions when I need it. That is their only job. They will not substitute for me in anyway. They will only advise.
Parakka Northland, Exotic Lemon
Do they even need communications? I can't see why they would need it, especially since the lc doesn't
Asturias And Leon
"Yes men" would be a concern only if there was political power associated with the office. However, there is no political power associated with the office at all because that would be counter-democratic.
Parakka Northland, Exotic Lemon
Yeah i know.
I know english of course, some latin, and some spanish.
i want to learn russian, arabic and maybe french too.
Again, I don't think you would, but if you have two yes men then you might as well not have anyone, making the system kinda useless. Just throwing ideas out
if they are advisers they should represent how most people feel he means. (i think)
Exotic Lemon
I want to learn Swedish or Norwegian, but I doubt I ever will
Asturias And Leon
Communications is the least powerful of all the authorities. That's why I chose that one. Granting them one authority gives them a visible place in government.
Parakka Northland, Exotic Lemon
They don't need an office to be in the government, example the lc
Asturias And Leon
The idea of "yes men" is completely invalid here because these advisors have no political power whatsoever. They would only have a visible place in government on the officer list.
Parakka Northland, Exotic Lemon
yeah, the nordic countries are nice.
high HDI and cheerfulness
Exotic Lemon
Yes, but you should learn how to introduce yourself and order food in English. It's pretty easy.
"I am Rome. I eat that."
"Sum Roma. ille consumo"
"Io sono Roma. Mangio quello"
"Yo soy Roma. Como la." <- not sure. I don't speak Spanish. :P
"Jeg heter Rome. Jeg spiser det"
"Jag heter Rome. Jag äter det"
"ICH BIN ROME! ICH ESSEN DAS!" (German must always be typed in all caps with exclamation points)
"Je suis Roma. Je uh... eat *gestures eating* uh... that. *points and mimes eating again*"
:D
Asturias And Leon
I am not worried about them abusing their power. I worry that they just would always agree with you, making going to them for advice worthless, so you might as well not have them
Asturias And Leon
I agree. That's why I'm asking permission instead of just appointing them. I would like them to have an office as an Advisor to the Emperor. But I realize it isn't necessary.
Exotic Lemon
honestly, the only spanish i need to know is "tacos, muy picante, por favor"
Exotic Lemon
The idea itself is good. But it could turn out to be another layer of bureaucracy, and if it is such a minor position do we need it?
Forestavia
Es tu espanol Bueno o mal?
Do you guys know if we still have the minister of war position or not?
Good question. It won't be another layer of bureaucracy and it may be a powerless position but it is no minor position. It will be a valuable resource for me. These advisors are a tool that I believe I need to be the best emperor I can be. In the past I have issued decrees hastily without considering all sides of an issue. These two advisors would be able to offer their own unique perspectives on various subjects and would have the responsibility of guiding any decisions I do make in the future.
Parakka Northland
Yes, you are responsible for appointing the Minister of War.
how are the advisers chosen?
By me.
i agree with you having advisors, i do hope you choose people that represent the majority of people well.
i agree with lemon about not giving them tangible positions though.
Exotic Lemon
I don't understand why is a government position though. Can't you ask anyone you want: me, plugo, parakka, civ, mugwop, the list goes on and on. anyone can give or receive advice
I ask plenty of people for advice. Some in the government, some not. It helps me try to compromise or do something
Forestavia
It's just my preference that's all. I would like two tangible positions. I really feel that I'll be able to serve the regional empire better this way. If they are actual positions, I will feel more of an obligation to get their opinions on matters first before making a decision. These two positions will serve as another check on my power and will prevent me from resorting to emergency powers too frequently.
Exotic Lemon
Just chiming in to say that any position that is appointed runs that risk
Asturias And Leon, Exotic Lemon
That's fine. But remember what happened the last time the government got too big. If people didn't dislike their founder in GTO so much we would have lost a lot of friends
Asturias And Leon
If you need time to think about it you can take some time. I'm hoping to get a direct yes or no response within the week from both you and Plugo so that I can plan my next move on this issue.
Asturias And Leon
Can you all get me the team in the next 3 hours?
Then you all need a team name, and a team captain (the most active nation. I'll telegram the captain the questions, and the captain sends them to the rest of the team. Also, the captain must send me the final telegram with all the answers)
Asturias And Leon, Exotic Lemon
I like the idea. I really do. Right now it is a no from me, but think if we tweak it a tiny bit I would vote yes. The idea is there, and it's good. We need to balance practicality with balance of power
Forestavia
I don't know if we can get one last guy in 3 hours. I will take the captain spot if no one objects here
Ok. How would you tweak it?
Any chance we could drop the various threats?
Civilisunio, Exotic Lemon
It's fine if you use an embassy nation in that, if you can get that in the next 3 hours.
Exotic Lemon
Threats? What threats?
Asturias And Leon

Post by Forestavia suppressed by Domos Pinca.
I'm confused.
Exotic Lemon
This debate we are having. It's good. I feel a way to impeach an inactive ir yes man adviser will be necessary, so if we can arrange that I would vote yes. I still don't like the idea of them being an officer but I can't have everything.
Forestavia
Parakka anyone from sa want to come?

Kazukame, Forestavia, Civilisunio, Exotic Lemon
new mal has puppets here, i just said that nation since its his main.
Yeah, that seems practical to me. If someone is inactive then why would I want them as an advisor. How about an advisor may be impeached by one branch of the Legislature or by the combined vote of the Viceroy and the Prime Minister?
Exotic Lemon
Alright, now how about a Team name? And so Exotic Lemon is the captain?
Kazukame, Exotic Lemon
Under those terms I will vote yes. Plugo? I still don't like them having offices though
Asturias And Leon
Is everyone okay with me captaining? Parakka? Plugo?
The picture for our NS++ newspaper doesn't work by the way
Forestavia
He's alive! How are you? :)
I'll write something formal up.
Exotic Lemon
that just happened for some reason.
The last time mugwop had com's authority, he spammed for a week about how lord mugwop was gonna get us all if we didn't vote in the poll...
Exotic Lemon
Everything began with: "all hail the cult of lord mugwop"
Forestavia
In Forestavia, we worship the true Lord!
You used to be on the lc. How do you feel about this?
Yea I still check this nation sometimes but its almost always over 4k messages when I do so I dont read the RMB :P
Im good how about you?
Forestavia, Exotic Lemon
I won't elaborate further, I might have misinterpreted something that was said.
I haven't asked anyone TBH, been a bit of a long day, due to me being up since about 2am this morning (it's not 8:49pm here)
Tumetu-Iin Noyan, Exotic Lemon
they don't need offices to give oaky advice.
Exotic Lemon
I'm decent. We have a Democratic Monarchy now in this region. It may or may not turn into a constitutional monarchy. We'll see. We still have the Lunar Council, though. It's the judicial branch now.
Trivia Time!
For those of you who don't know, Jegerkompaniet is a former Lunar Councillor.
