It's okay to be nervous sometimes, but don't worry! The history of Wintreath as a region isn't super important to RP, and as far as I know Wintreath's RP-self doesn't have much of a history either.

I'd highly recommend joining our forums and look in the following linked subforum to find out more about Wintreath's RP world and lore: https://wintreath.com/forums/index.php?board=93.0

Wintreath does have a classic semi-official lore and universe that Weissreich created in the early years. It isn't used in any RPs though.

Okay, this nation card stock trading minigame thing is pretty frigging addicting...

If they assigned attack and defense or political points to each, too, and let duel your deck nations? I shudder to think of the monumental hours I'd pour into that. :P

It would be kind of neat if the cards were somehow linked into the challenge system!

Hello friends,

Pacifica is going to be hosting a convention later today (on our regional message board) if any of our friends in Wintreath are interested. It will be mainly targeted at our citizens but there will be some elements you may wish to join in with:

Convention Schedule
12:00 PM (ET) - 12:30 PM (ET) is open roleplaying.
12:30 PM (ET) - 1:00 PM (ET) is the Q&A for the President, Vice-President, Prime Minister, and Ministers.
1:00 PM (ET) - 1:30 PM (ET) is open roleplaying.
1:30 PM (ET) - 2:00 PM (ET) is open roleplaying.
2:00 PM (ET) - 2:30 PM (ET) is open trivia.
2:30 PM (ET) - 3:00 PM (ET) is the awards/ending.

It is our hope that we can host a bigger festival in the future that will be more targeted at interregional activities and we would very much hope that Wintreath might be involved in that in a more formal capacity!

Feel free to stop by

TSP Delegate voting continues unabated... dead Lazarene voters and all?

When an InfoWarez contributor shared a fake video of a TSP voting machine automatically casting ballots for a left-leaning candidate, it was just another day at the races in The South Pacific, a region known for it's Linkdelightful dramatic lurching from one consitutional crisis to the next over the past 16 years.

[TSP] “It was the main story all day Sunday and was somehow predictable. Many hoaxes with conspiracy theories circulated in the weeks prior to the voting day,” said Beepee the director of AlternaFactos, a TSP fact-checking organization, told VN in a message. “This was a hoax built on paranoia.”

The lead-up to TSP’s contentious delegate election, which had its first round of voting in the offsite forums, has been marred by misinformation on platforms like FaceRage and WhatShat. A deeply polarized society has provided fertile grounds for viral conspiracy theories about everything from the death of a politician to Lazarus voters rising from the dead to vote in TSP. Fact-checkers themselves have become targets of the chaos.

The fake voting machine video, which both Drystar and fellow fact-checker 073 039 109 032 080 111 112 112 121 quickly debunked, racked up thousands of retweets after being shared by Islands of unity — the son of right-wing candidate Roavin. InfoWarez’ Auphelia also amplified the hoax. That doesn’t even take into account Discord, the messaging platform where a good chunk of TSP misinformation comes from.

Over the past few weeks, TSP voters have expressed concern about the integrity of the election, which will end its second round of voting today — despite assurances from both regional and external election officials that voting machines are safe to use. And that distrust has manifested itself in an onslaught of voter fraud-related hoaxes on social media.

“There are tons of hoaxes related to fraud in the system,” said sitting Delegate Erinor. “Election Commissioner Farengeto informed us that only 0.33 percent of the system had any kind of bad functionality problems, so it’s very low. The Order of the Grey Wardens came to TSP to analyze the system, they probably already talked about it, and found that there is no fraud in the system, actually.”

“This is just bad, bad, bad information.”

With just 30 minutes left in the polls, Aumeltopia has taken a 6 vote lead in the week long election most media are saying is still too close to call.
