If you want to work with us, do it officially and we'll let you know what we need done. We don't need all these embassies, and we don't need an unofficial party pretending to represent us.

Despite the fact that Force fulfills our Embassy's requirements, the fact that you don't officially might be a problem. It is good that you want to do your part for the Region, but next time talk with our Foreign Minister or with the Cabinet, it would be really appreciated.

Important Parliament Announcements

Residents,

With the school year getting started for most of us once again, our Parliament is probably one of the last things on your minds. In fact, the last Session of Parliament was over a month ago if I remember correctly. This is all going to change though, tonight we have opened the Voting Polls for Session XII of Parliament for three days!

Here's what we have on our agenda this Session, two Repeal Bills and one massive Parliamentary Bylaw to completely overhaul the Parliament itself. This Session will be instrumental in helping shape the future of what our legislative body will look like. With this in mind, I ask that as many people vote in this as possible, as it will greatly affect everyone!

Here is the link to the Session XII Voting Poll: https://goo.gl/forms/1JuO8RHvO9YfqbJ23

oh no i meant what is the concept

New Alpine Mountains wrote:oh no i meant what is the concept

Conceptually, raiding can take several forms, but the most common form by far is seizing the WA Delegate position in founderless regions to grief the target region by changing the WFE, removing embassies, and suppressing posts. Most raiding is via tag raids, which is basically what I just described. The other thing raider organizations do is take the WA Delegate position in founderless regions, and occupy the region for an extended period of time to refound the region and make it their 'Trophy' region to taunt natives.

So how's everyone feeling about the Catalonia situation?

Post self-deleted by -Stans.

America The Greater wrote:So how's everyone feeling about the Catalonia situation?

I support the holding of the vote as I think if a part of a nation wants to vote for independence, they should be able to (it's a simple issue of political freedom to me). I disagree with Spain's laws (and the USA's similar laws as well) that ban succession, and I condemn Spain's actions in trying to prevent the vote. However, I think that if I was a Catalan, I would vote "no" in the referendum, as it seems to me that the main reason for some of them wanting independence is so they can no longer bear the brunt of taxes that support the poorer parts of the nation (so Catalan independence would make the economic situation in Spain worse than it already is - didn't Spain recently have like 25% unemployment?).

America The Greater wrote:So how's everyone feeling about the Catalonia situation?

To my honest opinon. It may seem patronizing, but i don't see much sense in it. I'm a Pro-European and hope to see most European Regions joined in some federalized european state soon, with supporting local cultures and languages, so that those regional identities won't die out.

But i rather have the stand that wether a part of a country wants to stay in or out is rather a national affair, for me as an foreigner to step in, is only when it's get violent.... good it already did, but i mean in a civil war/genocidial level.

I just hope that people can stay civilised. The referednum did open my eyes that even western european countries can have strong inner problems. I was just so accostumed to peace in here, that i thought we overcame our tendencies to choose aggression over diplomacy..... Inside our territories.

Important Message from the Founder

Hello Everyone,

As some of you may have seen or are aware of, there was a recent scandal involving myself in regards to the refounding of Greece. The refound was reversed a day after the fact, due to evidence which was uncovered by mods that showed that I had taken part in WA Multying in order to gain enough influence to pull off the refound. Naturally, I am not going to dispute any of this and have taken full responsibility for my actions. I made a grave mistake and lost Greece as a result, let alone having tarnished my reputation in the international community as a cheater. I was lucky to receive a minor punishment as a result, only being barred from the WA for a year and having my WA nations permanently deleted.

With these facts established, I feel that I should at least explain to all of you why I took part in such behavior. So in order to do this, we need to look at the situation in Greece several months ago: as the leader and architect of Operation Red Wing (the operation to refound Greece), I had all support pulled from the operation prior to this point in time and was able to get it back up and running once again with the help of a new organization, The Elysian Fields. The operation timetable was looking rather grim, with conservative estimates up to 6 months and idealistic estimates as early as four months. Under these circumstances and with the threat of the former founder, Yauna, potentially returning at any point, I felt I needed to explore all options to complete the refound in as short a time as possible. Earlier that week, I came across this ancient Kindle device we had gotten years ago from Verizon in my closet, and it just so happened to have its own 3G internet access. I decided to investigate the possibility of using this device to create a new WA puppet to pile onto my nation in Greece, knowing full well that if I were to be caught it would result in consequences, but also knowing that if I succeeded, Greece could be refounded in a much shorter period of time. After reviewing everything I knew about the detection systems mods used to detect WA multying, I hypothesized that using the device would be safe since it had no connection to me and I would only have to use the device once and forget about it. Long story short, I got carried away with this and way too confident, distorting the line between right and wrong in my attempts to complete an important mission I had in the works for six months (and that old natives had been trying to do for 8-9 years, with two failed attempts).

They uncovered that I did this a total of at least five times, all using the same methods. What got me caught was that I got too comfortable and made all the emails sound similar, otherwise they probably wouldn't have been able to prove anything. In heinsight, I should never have even considered WA Multying, but my ambition and desire to complete the operation faster led me down a path to destruction and humiliation. I regret ever partaking in these illegal activities, and now am facing the consequences, both practically and politically. I am grateful that the mods were merciful with me and spared the majority of my nations, especially this nation. This region was not implicated or even associated with this operation and scandal, so it will not affect any of you or this region as a whole. However, I felt I had to be both candid and honest with everyone and express my regret and devotion to this region. I ultimately resigned from the organization I was doing the operation through, and have subsequentally been barred from other defender organizations (which is usual in these situations). I hope you all can forgive me for my mistakes, or at the very least understand why I made them in the first place. I will be placing all my efforts back into this region, and hopefully stirring up some activity as a result. If you have any questions feel free to telegram me with them, I will make sure to answer them in a timely manner.

Thank you,

Yodle

Everyone, please, send me a telegram if you're interested in defending. At this time it would be best for us to have some forces standing by, in case Greece needs our help stabilizing after this incident. We'll be there if they do.

Why the embassy closure Yodle?

New Ducklands wrote:Why the embassy closure Yodle?

Didn't your region admit to raiding in a discussion on the FORGE Server? If true, it violates our current embassy policy which bars us from keeping embassies with raider regions.

For the embassy of The Elysian Fields, we are removing embassies due to our cutting ties with the organization as a whole. Concerning the embassy of United Nations Of Europe, we are removing embassies due to there only being one nation in the region and the region being locked. Since they're not one of our regions and not a military or organizational base, they do not qualify for the waiver which allows for regions with that population.

Parliament - Session XIII & Other Updates

Fellow Residents,

I come to you with good news that the Regional Parliament is up and running once again! Session XIII has begun and the Voting Polls are open! I ask that every Resident who reads this message before 10/24 go out and vote in this Session. With Parliament kicking back into high gear, we need to get back into the routine of using Google Forms on a bi-weekly basis and getting some Regional Government activity started up. There is lots in store for the region in the coming weeks, and Parliament is just one piece of this intricate puzzle.

We currently have three open seats in the Council on Parliamentary Regulation (CPR) and one nomination this Session. We need these seats filled ASAP, and thus I ask anyone who may be interested to step up and telegram me so that I can get the nomination process started! As a quick reminder, the CPR is the new heart of the Parliament. It determines all of the regulations and rules which determine how the legislative body functions, and therefore is a very powerful position to be in. We need motivated and active Residents who are looking to get involved to help our Parliament grow into a premier legislative body that serves the needs of the people! Ask about being nominated today!
