Region: The Mystical Council

History

Crimson Coalition wrote:Maybe... I could vote for URN and then Wolfdon could vote for WotF? :/ That sounds corrupted or something..

I don't think that would work. I honestly think we have the Interregional Council branch under control. The next battle is going to be getting 2/3 approval from Residents. We have four relatively inactive nations.

I think I might have a vote lined up. Pantorrum from UTNA.

I sent an embassy request to Alpha Wolf.

Since we're on the recruiter tag kick, I might as well take an opportunity to promote some of our embassy regions. Time to spam the RMB. I think we can use the recruiter tag to our advantage.

Maybe you all should consider three things, ban every nation in all raider regions, or just ban the nations that caused the damage or another option would be is to password-protect the region so that way New Bacon's Seat won't get overthrown anymore. It takes our region as a whole to do something. Bacon won't be watching the region all the time. Now of course everyone has things he or she have to do in life even I have things that I have to do. So I would encourage you all to vote on either banning the nations or password-protect the region. I mean the only feasible option would be to password-protect the region so that way Bacon's or whatever his name is seat will not be overthrown. Like I said the raiders are going to continue to overthrow Bacon's seat if nothing is done.

Don't wanna get raided?

I'm so glad you're here! Please vote for option two! We are so close to abolishing the Interregional Council.

It's official Friese has ceased to exist. This means we now have 10 nations on the IRC.

We now have 5/10 or 50% of the Interregional Council in favor of Option 2. All we need is one more vote.

You didn't have to log into it. But yes, WE DID IT! We need to have a celebration. The Interregional Council has officially voted to dissolve itself. 6/11. Wow. That was painful. Whose idea was this IRC thing anyway??

We just need 2/3 of the residents and one more vote out of the Lunar Council and we'll be done with done with this forever.

Malcholm

I'm sending a telegram out to the other three Lunar Councillors. We will have both the Lunar Council and the Residential votes taken care of if just one of them votes for option two. We're soooooo cloooose.

*Bangs head into wall*

Elections are approaching by the way. I'll put up a poll for those who are interested in running for office or reelection very soon.

Frogcha was assassinated for a conspiracy to burn down The Forest in search of oil and gold. Plum Oakton has returned to power in Oakplumington. "Let's see we have new flags being adopted, new nations coming here, I missed a lot."

An assistant came in. "Your meadow is almost ready Mr. Oakton."

"Thank you. I'm about ready for a nibble." He pulled out his favorite bottle of whiskey and drank what was left. Miraculously, no one had used it while he was gone. "I'm going to head over to Sentagon today to give a speech. I need to have a plane prepared. I'm going to make a speech the minute Sentagon is triumphant. I'm also putting in a request to resign our nation from the AIP the minute this thing passes. Well, change is good, I guess."

A huge celebration begins to take place at Sentagon after the Interregional Council yields to a more efficient form of government.

People were also gathering outside the Lunar Council offices holding up signs. "Vote today!" "It is time for Sentagon!"

Well, I guess it's time to get into the spirit of Christmas.

Some of my friends have came up with some of the amendments that are in there so therefore it may be updated frequently Oakplumington.

I'll check it out. Thanks.

Check the Info Factbook on my page and click the link to My constitution. It should be a google doc.

Ok, I found it. I think the text looks better in bold I might try that in the whole document instead of just the titles.

New Bacon

This is from the constitution as currently written:

"2. Assuming that all vacancies are filled, two council seats shall be up for election every full moon. Elections should last for the seven days prior to the full moon."

And it looks like our region is going to have its first "real" election.

How do we want to do this?

1. Should we put everyone's names on the ballot for 7 days and the top two candidates take Lunar Council seats 1 and 2 respectively?

OR

2. Should we do a three/four day poll for each Lunar Seat separately?

Normally I would've said option 2, but option 1 works fine now that I think about it. I'd say go with that.

I'm going to be using Forestavia for RP from now on. I'll also be moving that nation around a lot for awhile.

New Bacon you can change Oakplumington to Forestavia on the map.

I'll keep Plum Oakton since his character is well established. He's going to retire from politics and be a wizard now. A wizard who gives political speeches to places like Sentagon.

I'm straightening out my factbook at the moment. I have to do elections for the year 5029 (Forestavian time).

The three main parties consist of Liberals, Nationalists, and Theocrats. Minor political parties include Independents and Socialists. The Conservative Party is obsolete and will completely disappear from the Forestavian Senate over the next four years.

Liberals are essentially classical liberals/libertarians.

Nationalists are composed of traditionalists, conservative Theocrats, isolationists

Theocrats are primarily pro-religion though most do not care which. Most conservative Threocrats left the party for the Nationalist party.

Anarchists left the Liberal party for the Independent party.

Conservatives are leaving their own party for the Nationalist and Independent parties.

Isolationists left the Liberal party for the Nationalist party.

Forestavia is entering a prohibitionary period.

*Companies are required to put a label on foods containing MSG or face heavy fines.

*Genetically modifying food via tampering with DNA is illegal. Although traditional forms of utilizing cross-pollination is perfectly fine.

*LSD, heroin, and ecstasy are illegal across the country.

*Nearly 60% of districts have declared cocaine illegal unless prescribed by a doctor.

*Weed, opium, and mushrooms remain legal.

----

High Councillor Rock has announced his intention to retire within a year.

----

The average Forestavian does not dress formally unless on religious, spiritual, or government business.

When dressing formally, they dress in robes matching the three shades of green on the flag and carry a sword, side arm, and knife.

The sword can be a bit much. Many Forestavians will carry just the side arm and knife.

{Here's another large one. I should be done for awhile after this.}

~Your News Forestavia~

The constitutional amendment to instate thirteen-year terms on High Councillors has been passed by the Senate. The proposal goes to the High Council for consideration tomorrow. Rock, Kellywing, Quanooni, and Sharp have all stated their support for the amendment.

High Councillor Sharp said, "I'm glad to see this happen, I am cautiously optimistic that we will approve it." She also has made a statement telling the press, "I plan to launch the first successful campaign for reelection to the High Council in Forestavia. I will make a promise to visit all one thousand districts before my reelection. And I can say with confidence that I will win. The Liberal Party's message is just as true today as it was yesterday. We are the party of principle and, with the introduction of three additional parties, we are going to have a few hard years before us. But I will not allow this nation to slide down the road to fascism which some Nationalists would have happen - if I can help it. And I believe it is the patriotic duty of every Forestavian to keep the Socialists from advancing their cause in the Senate. We have two religious leaders representing the Fortruthian Faith. If we are to continue being a theocratic republic, then we should give the leaders of the Lucernist and Vedulist faiths a voice as well." Her statement is being called "too bold" by some due to the fact that she is only eleventh in line to lead the High Council, which means she would have twelve years to wait.

Rock has said, "It's a good day for the country. I tried getting a constitutional amendment passed several years ago and I have to say that this is actually a bit better. I think it will get people excited about politics again. It has my approval." He has previously announced his intention to retire from the High Council and still plans to do so.

Despite the premature campaigning and celebrations from the Liberal camp, The High Council will have to produce three more votes to approve it. And this could be a challenge due to the fact that High Councillors currently serve for life once elected. Many may not be too excited about giving it up. Just as many High Councillors - if not more - have come out against the proposal.

Theocrats are still largely opposed to the plan and intend to make an attempt to convince voters to turn it down during the elections. The people are currently in favor of the amendment according to polls. Large amounts of propaganda are being poured out at the temples. Fortruthian Bishop and High Councillor Troublesolver has stated, "This is a direct attack on the spiritual authority of the High Council. For over two hundred years, candidates elected by the High Council would be trained by the Monastery while waiting for a position to open up. This so-called constitutional amendment guts the spiritual balance that is needed from our [I]theocratic[/I] republic."

The media is largely for the amendment and is pouring out propaganda in favor of it. The Your New Forestavia Broadcasting Company has stated its official position is to bring unbiased information to the public. Critics have suggested otherwise.

The reason why The Red Fleet will not get condemned:

Top ten most powerful delegates in favor -

Dakling (65), Imperial Eagle (53), De La Malvarma (47), NewTexas (44), Dark Commander (38), Egalitia (35), The Patrimony of Saint Peter (28), Kotawo (24), La Big Blue Blob (21),

Top ten most powerful delegates against -

SillyString (680), Mousebumples (400), PrussianEmpire (338), Westnesia (263), Hileville (242), Vancouvia (145), The Salaxalans (94), United Confedrated States of Durezz (76), CreepyCut (72), Mikeswill (61),

Apparently NS is geared towards totalitarianism that prefers the communist flavor. In fact, the very idea of condemning and commending regions could be seen as totalitarian.

The former Oakplumington Secretary of State. I might reuse the name in the future, I don't know.

Oh yeah, and I put a poll up for Lunar Council elections if you're interested in running.

New Bacon

The Forestavian High Council has voted 7 - 6 in favor of High Council term elections. All Liberals and the only Independent voted in favor, Theocrats voted against it, and the two conservatives ended up splitting with High Councillor Growing voting with the Theocrats and Longgoo voting with the Liberals. Longgoo intends to register as an Independent while Growing intends to register with the Nationalists.

Alright so the map is officially updated [nation=short]Forestavia[/nation]/ [nation=short]Oakplumington[/nation]. Meanwhile: President Taharqa visits Oakplumington to pay respects to Frogcha and what happened to him. Taharqa said that Frogcha was a hard-working person in the Mystical Council. Mayor Fields of Washington says, "Well, who is going to run the private libraries that Frogcha once owned in the City?" One Citizen says," That is up to who ever in Oakplumington wants to take it over. Maybe go to the Oakplumington Embassy located at 100 Plum Oakton Dr, Washington D.C., New Bacon 25001 or The Forestavian Embassy located at 255 Neck of the Woods Circle Washington DC 25001. The Mayor says, Thank you for that information.

Forestavia, Malcholm

Mayor Fields was contacted by the Forestavian embassy. The mayor was told that the librarian monks and nuns of the Monastery (located outside the Forestavian capitol of Prosperity) would be the ones to handle the books that were once owned by Frogcha. "They always handle the books," the Ambassador said with a chuckle.

{I just realized, I have to replace Oakplumington with Forestavia on the Sentagon list.}

"A proposal," he continued twitching his bunny whiskers, "that would allow The Mystical Council to join The Unified Regional Network.

Malcholm, Northern Forestavia

{I’m just going to say it’s 5029 in Forestavian time. I keep mismatching my elections results with my years. As promised, I give you (finally)….}

News Report -

Forestavian Senate election results are in! Another Liberal Senator will be elected to lead the Senate, but not because they did well. It was just the way the numbers fell. In fact both, the Liberal and Theocratic Parties performed the worst this election year due to the creation of three new political parties. It has been a wild ride in the Senate this year. The final election results for this election year are as follows:

Nationalists gained 49 seats giving them control of a total of 182 seats (18.2%).

Socialists gained 29 seats giving them control of a total of 29 seats (2.9%).

Theocrats lost 35 seats giving them control of a total of 224 seats (22.4%).

Liberals also lost 35 seats giving them control of a total of 267 seats (26.7%).

Conservatives have control of a total of 232 seats and vote with the Independents (23.2%).

Independents gained 66 seats giving them control of a total of 66 seats (6.6%).

The Independents performed the best this election. H.C. Harold Quanooni (who is 65 this year) said in an interview, “It’s about time the Independents get involved in the Senate again. I am the last Independent who was elected to the Senate – and that was over a decade ago.” There is no word yet on who will lead their party. The Socialists did far better than anyone expected. Sandy Bernards won her district’s seat as predicted and has also been unanimously given leadership by her party. Her campaign focused heavily on the Nuber Cab Company during the election. “Nuber continues to increase commissions on these drivers even though they are volunteering their own vehicles to the corporate cause. This is the reason why Nuber needs a unionized driving force. Together their united voices can bring economic justice to the plight of their work force!”

The people have also approved High Councillor reelections. The constitutional amendment has passed.

--------

Some voters were convicted voter fraud this election. Arrests were made immediately after it was discovered that they were using enchanted ink on the ballots. “The spell was designed to alter the ink on other ballots that it (the original ballot) came into contact with,” said a forensic investigator. The perpetrators have been sentenced to five years in jail in addition to fines.

New Bacon, Malcholm

The following law was proposed by the Forestavian Representative in Sentagon.

"The Suppress-A-Post Game

Knowing that the Constitution as currently written grants the Lunar Council and Delegate the ability to suppress a tasteless post

And understanding that the Suppress-A-Post Game may cause confusion for some nations in The Mystical Council

Hereby recognizes that the Suppress-A-Post Game shall be officially recognized as a regional game under the following conditions:

1. Nations not interested in playing may opt out at any time.

2. If a nation opts out, their posts must be unsuppressed by any member of the regional government immediately.

3. When a play session has concluded all suppressed posts shall be unsuppressed."

(also, I updated the regional laws, treaties, and traditions factbook. http://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=454436)

New Bacon, Malcholm, Au912 Mystical Council Consulate

This sort of got buried under all of my other posts. If there are no objections, I'm going to go with Malcholm's recommendation.

"2. Assuming that all vacancies are filled, two council seats shall be up for election every full moon. Elections should last for the seven days prior to the full moon."

I had to do the same thing when I moved from the UTNA.

Speaking of the UTNA we have more nations than they do. Hehehehehe.

GOVERNMENT ALERT: The New Bacon Intelligence Agency has found a World Assembly Proposal to Condemn the region Den. Please whatever you do if you are in the World Assembly, vote against it. Raiders may be destructive but can also make the region grow. And I don't think that their region should go. I think that If a raider were to raid the region of course some regions just need to punish them for what they have done. VOTE AGAINST IT!!! IF YOU HAVE A PUPPET IN THE WA, VOTE AGAINST IT. Right now the proposal is winning to condemn the Region. I personally think that their region should not go.

That...is unbelievable.

As far as I know, there is at least one puppet in UTNA. There are definitely four here. So, I'd say we're probably about dead even.

New Bacon, Malcholm

Here is what president Taharqa had to say,

President Antonio A Taharqa wrote: It is sad that our fellow raiders from DEN would be condemn from the world. If one has a puppet in the WA please vote against the proposal. I have voted against the proposal and I do not think it is right that the WA would condemn a raider region because they raid. They are going to move to another raider region and continue raiding. Now the WA cannot decimate all of the raiders. Therefore there will be inevitable raiding going on in the World. Please any nation in The Mystical Council please vote against it. Thank you all in the Mystical Council and New Bacon. Thank you.

There you have it folks! Please vote against it! I'm Pete Keller from Bacon Central News.

News cast

"The President of New Bacon has publicly come out in support of raiding today. This politically volatile move has stunned some of his supporters in Forestavia who have been quietly wondering why the region's tags didn't change back.

Pro-raiding supporters, however, agree with Taharqa saying that it's about time every country is recognized as equal in The Mystical Council political process. Some Misley-for-Council protesters were holding up signs that said, "Don't Give Up The Sub". Captain Misley has not applied to be on the ballot as of yet.

This year's election could be very interesting. With two new candidates on the ballot, there is a chance that the current Malcholm could be replaced as Lunar Council President. If both Crimson Coalition and Vaspassia win the election, then the most senior member of the Lunar Council will become AU912. Things are really heating up."

*Fire appeared behind the journalist who pulled out a rag and wiped his face dramatically.*

New Bacon, Malcholm

I added this old law we passed a month ago to the Laws Passed section. I didn't realize how far I fell behind.

"2.

As a result of unconstitutional actions taken against The Mystical Council, Lunar Council Members The Nomadic Peoples of ChingisLan and The Republic of Jegerkompaniet will be temporarily stripped of their communications authority for one lunar cycle. Communications authority shall be restored to these nations as of December 25, 2015 A.D. which is the day of the Cold Moon.

*Proposed to the Lunar Council, by The Corporate Bordello of Monotheistic Deities. The Lunar Council approved the law with three votes. Nations voting in favor included The Vereint Reich of Malcholm, The Protectorate of AU912 Mystical Council Consulate, and interestingly enough The Republic of Jegerkompaniet. The Delegate, The United Provinces of New Bacon, approved the passage of the law on 11/26/2015."

Should we talk about an emergency plan?

What would you do say if someone took control of this region and began banning people and no one was around to stop them? Hmm. What would you do?

Watch this.

New Bacon

Ta-da! Bring a puppet over!

But what if it happens again?

Watch this.

New Bacon

Seconds ago: The Endorsement of Oakplumington ejected and banned The Theocratic Republic of Southern Forestavia from the region.

Still with me?

New Bacon

Ta-da! Your home away from home:

8 minutes ago: The Alternate Founder of Southern Forestavia of the region Mystical Council proposed constructing embassies.

Question: Now wouldn't it be funny if our back-up region was featured before ours?

That would be weird actually.

I just get this strange feeling that's the way things will go for us.

New Bacon, Malcholm, Vaspassia

Guys vote FOR the condemnation. It is every raiders dream to be condemned.

New Bacon, Oakplumington, Vaspassia

On top of that later on today, I will probably put up an SC proposal of my own. Do please support it Bacon, and vote everyone, vote FOR if it makes quorum. I'll link it when i propose.

Bacon Central News:

Is New Bacon nearing anarchy??? New Bacon surpassed Oakplumington as being the most Politically Free Nation in the Mystical Council. It is unbelievable that New Bacon is moving this direction. Pete Keller with this news alert now back to regular programming.

The election will begin on the 18th.

Oakplumington wrote:The election will begin on the 18th.

Actually, we might not need to have an election. It looks like Malcholm and Vaspassia will get the job by default.

*****Nice Factbook!!!!! You are the king at this I see.*******

Forestavia, Vaspassia

Aww [nation=short]Crimson Coalition[/nation] left us.

Thanks! :) I was actually wondering if anyone wanted to help with the WFB. That's as far as I got with it. I have it all saved somewhere else so don't be afraid to experiment or completely change it to something different.

Yeah... maybe someday they'll come back.

Pretty convincing argument, it'll score well in the WA hive mind.

I'll support it, but be wary that there will probably be people who have issues with the bad Alternate History World link.
