Lemonmeister for Chancellor HEAR YE HEAR YE!
Lalucia, Alistia, Sagren
I concede the election. Don't vote for me or I'll have Oaky Oakmeister ban u.
Lalucia, Forestavia, Malcholm, Terran Flux, Sagren
link to your main/wa nation?
Malcholm
Yeah he did it before I could. I don't really care since this is obviously a puppet, but I just thought I'd mention his complete capability for the position
(If it isn't obvious, Adesiem isn't WA because I raid with TWC, even though it is my main nation)
Vote for me if you want Fascism to make a return, nuff' said
Malcholm
I was extremely confused...
I couldn't wrap my head around the regions dictatorship... Everyone was chilled about it and imo the region wasn't moving forward, rather backwards, but when I saw things change back to a democratic government, I came back... I like it here as well.
Gyuamno, Forestavia, Wolflandil, Malcholm
Never!
Off with his head!
Wolflandil, Malcholm
17 years after 9/11. May we never forget.
Lalucia, Forestavia, Alistia, Wolflandil, Malcholm, Terran Flux, Sagren, Exotic Lemon, The Immortal Elysium
Alrighty *marks down name on a list* our first dissident
Lalucia, Malcholm
I might not be around for the next few days as my granddad died last night so thought I would give you a heads up
Alistia, Terran Flux
feel better
Wolflandil, Malcholm, Terran Flux, Parakka Northland
No matter how dark the night, democracy always has a way of returning to a region like ours. We're special like that. Welcome back to TMC. :)
Lalucia, Alistia, Malcholm, Parakka Northland
Hm... Now I may just be a lowly founder and I don't want to overstep any boundaries but I was kind of thinking that maybe, just maybe, I could perhaps have the power to grant honorary citizenship to new immigrants. It would be a special founder's citizenship status that wouldn't interfere with any other citizenship status an immigrant nation may already have. And of course we should still have a "normal" system, too.
Gyuamno, Malcholm, Sagren
My sincerest condolences to you and your family. May tomorrow be brighter. Take as much time as needed, I am sure we are all here if you need it.
Lalucia, Forestavia, Malcholm, Parakka Northland
And I may just be a lowly dictatorship, but democracy is just tyranny by majority
Forestavia, Malcholm
Alistia, Malcholm, Terran Flux, Parakka Northland
My sincere condolences during your time of bereavement. May you find strength and peace during this difficult time.
Alistia, Wolflandil, Malcholm, Parakka Northland
We like having you. Seems like you are struck by the invisible hand of the celery God; once you enter TMC you never leave.
Lalucia, Alistia, Malcholm
Congrats to Chancellor Exotic Lemon on his win in the election!
I will appoint him later today.
Lalucia, Wolflandil, Terran Flux, Sagren, Exotic Lemon
Stuff happened, huh
Malcholm, Terran Flux
Yeet eskeet congrats on that Lemon beat(ing) his competition aka literally only me
Malcholm, Exotic Lemon
Thanks bro. Planning on running for anything else?
Anything and everything
Exotic Lemon
Thought it would be funny to vote no in the above poll considering that even if I wanted to run I couldn't. So that's what I did. :|
Malcholm
Congrats Lemon! May your reign be fruitful and progressive.
Alistia, Malcholm, Terran Flux, Exotic Lemon
I see what you did there... "fruit"-ful. On a more serious note, I will do my best to make the region better
Lalucia, Forestavia, Alistia, Wolflandil, Malcholm, Terran Flux
Congratulations my red lemony comrade!
Alistia, Malcholm, Terran Flux, Exotic Lemon
boi you'd know if you'd've stuck around on the discord 😛
'grats lemon! I accidentally ducked out and missed the vote, but FWIW I'd've tossed my vote your way since Gyu and Terran didn't put up much of a fight. On that note of RP (not saying I'd have time for it myself!) I think it'd be in the region's interest to push the medieval RP. It seems like you guys did really well with that and I'm a huge fan of the era, so that's my two cents.

Hello everyone,
As you have doubtless been annoyed with a notice, the updated citizenship log has been created. Everyone who had citizenship under him keeps their citizenship. Special shout out to Gyuamno for his work compiling the list for me.
https://www.nationstates.net/nation=exotic_lemon/detail=factbook/id=1093009
I would be interested in handing over this power but I believe it is Alistia's call. I think it would be a good idea as it helps cut the bureaucracy of needing two government members to approve.
Gyuamno, Forestavia, Alistia
Great to see an updated list! Excellent work!
Wolflandil, Terran Flux
Maybe. Or Maybe not.
I haven't been on discord or NS as much lately.
Malcholm, Terran Flux
Slinging pie's at Domino's?
Malcholm, Terran Flux
and sleeping. I've been doing alot of that, too.
Gyuamno, Malcholm, Terran Flux
Amen brother I like that sound of that
Malcholm, Terran Flux
I should probably be under duel citizenship
Exotic Lemon
I will update that, I probably deserve to be on that list as well
Terran Flux
Excellent! I see no objections from our Emperor so here we go....
Please kneel Sagren.
*Picks up sword and touches it to right shoulder*
As Founder of The Mystical Council, I hereby grant and bestow unto you, Sagren, the honorary citizenship that can only be granted by the Founder himself. This special citizenship does not in anyway interfere with the normal citizenship induction process held to by the region. Furthermore, this citizenship does not revoke any other citizenship status held by Sagren within any other region. Because you have been granted this special Founder's citizenship you, honorable Sagren, are exempt from having to go through the normal regional process. You have thus been fast-tracked to citizenship directly by the Founder himself. This special honor is not one that is granted commonly.
May you follow the mystical ways of our region. May you follow the spirit of our community. And may this bond of citizenship symbolize a bond of friendship and loyalty between The Mystical Council and The Wolf Clan.
*Touches sword to left shoulder*
Sagren, please rise, citizen of The Mystical Council!
*Cheers from the audience are heard*
Gyuamno, Malcholm, Exotic Lemon
I am honored to be bestowed this honor and promise to not let regional affairs with any other nations of mine to interfere with activities within this Mystical region that I have found myself placed in. May The Mystical Council Last forever more!
Malcholm
Also, I guess I can technically be considered "Interested" in the governor position now... but does anyone want to explain what this role does? It's hard to gauge interest when you don't know what you're signing up for.
Malcholm, Parakka Northland
Officially: "Duke (Later renamed to Governor)- general government member and regent of the region should the King be unavailable. Main job is to protect borders and rule the region. All powers"
In more detail: Basically just the second in command of the government. Has control over all powers, makes sure all the government is doing their job, scans for corruption. Rules as regent if the delegate is unavailable. I think the closest officer from your home region would be the prince of wolves position(s).
Lalucia, Wolflandil, Malcholm, Sagren, Parakka Northland
I would be fine with you having this power, but i would like for you to confirm with me before making a new citizen.
I would be fine with Sagren being a citizen, but we do need to know his WA nation, even if it is currently raiding.
Forestavia, Malcholm, Terran Flux
I would like to know each nations characters for medieval roleplay. I can create a codex listing each nation and their appropriate character(s). I don't mind if you have more than one, I encourage as many as you can handle.
Examples of characters one could play:
-Church Cardinal
-Vassal
-Serf
-Lord
-Bailiff
-Executioner
-Charcoal burner
-Inn Proprietor
-Bath house proprietor
-Friar
-Monk
-Guardsman
-Beggar
-Blacksmith
-Armorer
-Cobbler
-Merchant
Of course, there are other positions in Medieval society but this may act as a rudimentary list as you construct your characters.
Lalucia, Malcholm, Terran Flux, Exotic Lemon
I'll send it to you via TG right now (Though it constantly changes, I can send you a list if you really want one)
Malcholm
If you don't mind, I would like to have it on record for my factbook as well. (unless they are sleepers you would prefer to remain anonymous)
Malcholm, Terran Flux
You basically summed it up there, they require to remain anonymous. But with the ease of me simply making new puppets, there really is no need anyways. It's hard to keep someone out in NS...
Malcholm
We've kinda pretty much always participated in this, anyone interested?
https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1093054
Malcholm, Terran Flux, Parakka Northland, Exotic Lemon
With the ease it is to create a new nation combined with the unlimited nature of such, it is nearly non-enforceable to have a detailed account of all nations under one's control.
Malcholm
You underestimate the power of Lemons's infinite bureaucracy
Gyuamno, Malcholm
Indeed. Infinite bureaucracy is my specialty
As someone with a lot of puppets, I know. I figure he has at least one "retired" nation I can record unless he just lets them all cte.
Terran Flux
*wink wink nudge nudge* if you're interested, take a few minutes and just fill out the application and send it to me before you forget about it. :P
It'd be fuuuun, and tradition.
Terran Flux
Last time I was the team leader for The Mystical Council, Alistia signed up but never participated or even helped. He bailed on us. Talk about tradition! *scoff*
Malcholm, 21St Century Rome, Terran Flux
Well now you gotta make it tradition for him to sign up but bail on you and not help. :P
Gyuamno, Alistia, Malcholm, Terran Flux
"It is tradition, here in TMC, for elected officials to neglect their duties and pretend like they've contributed to the region in some way. You wouldn't be able to find a more ambivalent region if you tried."
Gyuamno, Lalucia, Alistia, 21St Century Rome, Terran Flux
*Finger guns in Fascism*
Malcholm, Exotic Lemon
tbh, I've been the same lately, you can blame any activity i've had on terran. if he'd stop pinging me i could die just peacefully but noooo 😤 there ain't no rest for the wicked. I'm starting a new job as an assistant chef tho, so that might draw me back out quite a ways 😛 i've got lots of studying to do since i haven't worked in a proper kitchen yet.
and by studying i mean cooking. it's gon be hella fun
Terran Flux, Parakka Northland
*finger guns in my old government system*
Malcholm, Terran Flux
Make me a sammich
Malcholm
I am the kind of person who tends to make a puppet, raid with it, then let it CTE if we get caught unless I come up with a cool name that I can't bare to let CTE, in which case a few tend to stick around for a while...
Exotic Lemon
Very accurate!
Malcholm
At work, I'm working on getting another promotion. So...busier than ever, but more money.
Malcholm
Head pie maker?
Malcholm, Exotic Lemon
Well the first (and second?) time we did it i helped :P
but if we are putting together a team id be down
Gyuamno, Malcholm, 21St Century Rome
So maybe I didn't make this clear, but since various regions had logistical difficulties getting together a full team and thus didn't have any people participate, we were centralizing team formation so you guys wouldn't have to worry about those logistics and could all just send me the info. But if you want to organize a team for your region, that works too. :p
Malcholm
*Peaks out from under table cloth*
Oh, you're okay with it? I was preparing myself for some huge controversy. Very well then. Next time I'll be sure to cross my i's and dot my t's.
Sagren!!!! My good citizen! Have you given our Emperor the required information? It's just a formality.
Gyuamno, Alistia, Malcholm, Sagren
You'll have to send me some recipes. ;)
Malcholm
Yep! Did it the second I read the message. Though heaven knows how many times my WA will be moving around, there may need to be updates to that list... many updates...
Malcholm
Well, my "infinite bureaucracy" (thanks Terran Flux) is ready if you would like to disclose any puppets. If not, that's fine I will just leave it at adesiem.
Gyuamno, Malcholm, Terran Flux
Lemon loves his red tape! Terran, get the man some more!
Forestavia, Malcholm, Exotic Lemon
Malcholm
Uh, Level 2 manager.
Which is halfway to General Manager.
Gyuamno, Malcholm
Which is also half way to head pie maker
Malcholm
Technically, yes, because the GM is the best pie maker we have, but I'm the second best.
Malcholm
No, I'm dirty Dan.
Hey guys...

Lalucian News Network
The Lalucian Government, with the approval of Her Majesty, has finally released the much anticipated Economic Stimulus Package amounting to 132 Billion Lents hoping economic activity would increase and avoid a technical recession. Economic data as of September 17th, indicate the Kingdom will enter a technical recession by Q4 due to an all time low output in the manufacturing and mining sectors.
Minister of Finance; John Mullins said that all sectors and stakeholders need to work together to avoid any further economic troubles from arising. Earlier today, before Her Majesty granted the approval for the stimulus package, She issued a stern warning to the Government, "Lower you spending or I will have to lower it for you". Of course under Lalucian Law, the Monarchy has full power to dismiss the Government and assume Absolute power over the Kingdom until The Monarchy replaces or reinstate the sitting government. This happened once back in 2007 during the border war with Lentheric.
Economist further warned, if we do not lower our imports which amounts to 79.86 Billion Lents and manufacture local products, we will enter into a full blown recession with dire consequences on all.
More economic news to follow, and later, rumours are spreading... The Queen might have a "bun in the oven"
Gyuamno, Forestavia, Alistia, Malcholm
It's good to see RP returning to the region. :)
Gyuamno, Lalucia, Malcholm
Amen!
Malcholm
You can be Dirty Dan, I just wanna be Patrick...
Malcholm
If it ever becomes an issue, I will be sure to hand a few names over, though I'm certain that at this point there's bound to be puppets of mine that I've forgotten about so no list will truly be complete (Even my own...)
Malcholm
33,000 puppets deleted from Sagren's PRIVATE server. Unbelievable! Huge news!
Malcholm, Terran Flux, Sagren
*Yuge... that's how you pronounce it, mkay? YUGE.
Gyuamno, Malcholm, Exotic Lemon
It won't be an issue. I just like having exhaustive and boring records

*sees that the conversation has moved on, but whispers tradition anyway in the hopes that someone will join*
*everyone has no clue who this guy is or what he's talking about*
Alistia, Malcholm, Terran Flux
I have decided to name Gyuamno as my governor.
We've had [[[[[many]]]]] disagreements in the past, but i don't doubt that we both did what we thought was best plan/idea for the region.
I'd like to thank all those that showed interest.
I, His most Imperial Majesty, Father of the Motherland, Overlord of Alistia, Grandmaster of the Council, Governor Mysticus, All Hail Emperor Julius Constantini Alustio Fortis HEREBY GRANT THE TITLE of Gubernator to Gyuamno.
Also, in recognition of his ambition and zealous spirit, name Terran Flux to be a Knight.
Though unless in the immediate situation of an invasion i ask him to hold off from using his powers.
Another poll about Government positions will be up by Friday.
Gyuamno, Malcholm, Terran Flux, Exotic Lemon
People liked the post about making a time but no one has officially said they are interested, c'mon ppl!
Malcholm, 21St Century Rome, Terran Flux
*looks at guy who keeps commenting on people being interested but hasn't joined* Hmmmm.....
Lalucia, Alistia, Malcholm, Terran Flux
Count me in. I know there is a form and I will telegram it to you soon.
Alistia, 21St Century Rome, Terran Flux
Thank you for the hearing aid, however there is one technical issue... How do you translate the proper usage of the word in this context into Sign Language? Yuge is not a world in the American Sign Language, so many deaf may be unaware as to its true pronunciation unless a speaker takes time to spell out the proper form of the word in said context. Come ON people!
Malcholm
I thank you for entrusting me with the role Gubernator.
I will execute this position to the best of my abilities going forward. God save Emperor Julius Constantini Alustio Fortis.

Wait...
Malcholm, Terran Flux
What happened to the fuhrer?
Malcholm, Terran Flux
he is alive and well, but no longer in power as delegate. Alistia is our new leader, and our regime is now medieval/roman themed instead of fascism.
Lalucia, Alistia, Malcholm, Ultranationalist State
Well, the Roman Republic eventually did turn into the Roman Empire, sooo
Lalucia, Malcholm, Exotic Lemon, Ultranationalist State
I have plans for us to be a Constitutional Dictatorship of sorts.
As for what that means or entails, who knows till it is created?
Lalucia, Malcholm, Exotic Lemon, Ultranationalist State
Since we've talked about possibly doing a rp of sorts, i think this would be a good map if we are doing some sort of pre-industrial rp?
