Contact Nedea to be placed on the map. Nedea had a death in the family and may be slow to reply.

Nedea, I would like a place in the map

Well, it's all over and done with now. Happy to be back and ready to get into it again.

Hello!

Esteemed WA nations,

Enough's enough. Whether you believe Lord Dominator is worthy of a condemnation or not, this has to stop.

Let's reconstruct for you what's happened so far:

  • Condemn Lord Dominator launched a few days ago. It quickly reached quorum, despite some initial opposition on the forums, and was at first quite popular.
    As of now, it remains most popular, with twice the number of individual nations voting for than against.

  • Lord Dominator seemed quite receptive to the idea of obtaining a "badge" for itself. Thus, it instructed influential delegates to vote for.
    When we say influential delegates, we're primarily talking about L.D.'s cronies, led by Imperium Anglorum, Delegate for Europe.

  • The vote remained for for some time - though there was opposition, an approximate one thousand votes stood between both sides. And then things started to flip...

  • Imperium Anglorum; Altinsane, Delegate for Osiris; and Wabbitslayah, Delegate for The Rejected Realms; all corrected their votes to against.
    L.D. followed up the swing in votes with the following statement on the forums: "Well, it was fun while it lasted to maybe get a Condemnation[.] Go forth and cause some greater failure my friends[.]"

  • Thus, the vote stands currently with against in front by a mere three hundred votes.

"Why, though?" you might ask. "After all, I.A. and the others were acting on L.D.'s express wishes, weren't they?" Well, we thought so too. Unless, of course, there was a greater plan...but we wouldn't dare speculate on the specifics of that.

What we can expose is this horrific neglect for the democratic process. You have nations - worse, the targeted nation - acting in a coalition for reasons unrelated to the resolution.

- Votes should not be cast so that L.D. can or can't get a shiny badge.
- Votes should not be cast because of some belief that this is a "tit-for-tat" resolution in response to SC#263. (N.B. Briefly on that: it isn't, which is probably very hard to believe. But had the Confederation been seeking revenge for SC#263, it would have acted entirely differently - targeting the nation which gave L.D. the idea for the liberation, for example.)
- Votes should not be cast to spite the proposing nation.
- Votes should not be cast to align with the irrelevant wishes of powerful coalitions.

For the record, we weren't ever interested in Lord Dominator's raiding career. We were interested in exposing this voting alliance, the same voting alliance that we've been harping on about for years.

Well, here it is, at work, in Condemn Lord Dominator, just as it has been at work in a plethora of other resolutions. And its actions, as you can see, are grossly unjust.

"But what can I do?"

A difficult question, indeed. As you can clearly see, you as the individual nation has very little power when it comes to voting in the World Assembly. You could always abstain from votes, or even leave the World Assembly, but then that only makes things easier for the big delegates.

The best we can recommend is for you to unendorse your regional delegates. Take their power away. Show them how loved their little games really are. Of course, in the case of founderless regions, this will no doubt be problematic. Perhaps, then, its time for you to elect a new delegate to represent your region... Don't do it for us, do it for yourselves. Get some of your power back.

The last thing to clarify is this: "Why do we, why does Jocospor and the Confederation, care so bloody much about all this? Well, look, it's no secret that we're not the world's biggest fan of democracy. In fact, our disdain for the system stems from the very argument we've presented above, because we know that democracy is just a fancy way of saying 'bureaucratic dictatorship'. However - and here's a little insight into our Imperial mindset - what we just can't stand is when governments pretend to be democracies. That's what's happened to this World Assembly. As you can see, it's run by a few, to the point where the common interest is completely forgotten. We'd much rather a democratic body that was truly democratic than a body that only pretended to be so.

Change begins with the first nation. Towards a New World Assembly,

Hail the Confederation!

Delegate's Office
Confederation of Corrupt Dictators

Map update sometime this week for the new guys.

Hey Nedea I sent you a message. If you could take a look it would be greatly appreciated

Vice-General Sosa Hegila, president of the elected colleges, and Prime Minister Vice-Admiral Kao Idaji, watched as the small red and blue bird fluttered to the Strategosa’s right shoulder and chirped loudly for a treat.

Not a moment later a rather forgettable lieutenant crept in and placed a small silver cage on Anra’s desk and then vanished. Sosa noticed the cage held something alive, but couldn’t quite make out its shape in the dark light. ”Damn this woman!” Sosa thought. Finally she broke, “Why are we sitting in the dark?”

Lightning flashed across the roiling skies over Ars Scientia. The ancient baroque walls of the former technomagi tribunal, now reserved for “communions” between the Strategosa and the highest members of the national corps, lit up in long, sharp, snarling shadows. Vice-General Hegila looked to the tiny cage as its prisoner thrashed around inside. Another quick flash of sky-fire and the cage rattled again. She moved her face closer, determined to identify the poor frightened creature.

The Athretvarian cardinal bird on Anra’s shoulder screamed a sharp reproach at Sosa. Anra reached over to the cage and removed the top. On cue, another clap of lightning lit up the room. Sosa and Kao gasped in chorus, “A Nedean Coco Lo...!”

Before the two startled officers could finish, the cardinal leaped from Anra’s side and pounced on the giant insect.

Sosa and Kao strained to watch the dark spectacle unfolding before them in combined curiousity and horror as spine-chilling shreaks, scratching, and crashes against the dense red-fern wood of Anra’s desk echoed throughout the room.

Just as the sound from atop Anra’s desk subsided, another burst of bright white light flooded the room. Sosa caught only a brief flash of the cardinal’s flourencent red and blue feathering before another ear piercing scream from the bird finally scared her far back into her chair gripping the armrests tightly.

The heavy-grade crysteel plates that constituted windows in the communion chamber grew opaque and glowed gently in a yellow-orange believed to mimic the morning light of Ancient Terra’s dying sol. A sudden chill ran down Kao’s back as he remembered the histories he had learned as a cadetling of those last desperate generations of humanity, struggling to understand and cope with the near-fatal success of their evolutionary conquest of that most gentle planet. Oh the horrors they committed. He watched the bird crunch a giant leg in its beak.

“Athretvarian cardinals feed at night,” Anra finally spoke. “And they happen to love Nedean Coco Locos!”

Sosa humphed! and threw the bird nasty side-eye. The cardinal screamed at her again before plucking an eye from the bug and swallowing it. It began to pull on a leg while glaring at Sosa.

Hesitantly, Sosa slowly broke eye-contact with the bird and looked to the Strategosa. “Gross.” Kao chuckled.

Anra smiled, “Now let’s get back to business.”
