Nominations for the Judiciary have ended and I didn't even know that they had started. I'm almost positive that other RA members (the "demo" in our democracy, as James splendidly put it) did not know.
Is it possible for our Internal Commisariat (or whatever) to send a mass PM to all the RA...
Hello. Not back in the active sense, but back in the "I want to reserve/import my nation in NS2 and until such time, I'm living back at home."
tl;dr
how r u i m fine
Why not me?
Every time I join our IRC channel, people say to me "Why were you never delegate?"
Now's the time to make that happen. I can hold large numbers of endorsements and not try to ruin the region.
So... Yeah. Any questions?
A little while ago, I went out to a club. Maybe to a nightclub. The evening was such epic win that I feel compelled to share it with you loyal readers. It would be a disservice to you if I did not.
So I arrive at the bar in question, The Pearl. It's a pretty cool joint; a little indie rock bar...
I can never think of a good way to start these. So... I'm leaving. Not coming back. :Hello:
My reasons are many, but it all boils down to CyberNations. Not just because it is (IMO) a better game, but it's also helped me realize a few things about this region. Kind of a long story, and I...
Alive In The Land Of The Dead
The 20th Century has marked the end of the millennium that saw the world become colonized by and organized under Western civilization, that saw the industrial revolution and overpopulation restructure both humanity and the very surface of the earth itself. This...
If you have much experience in the way of things, then you should know that there are certain things that you do not fuck with. Under no circumstances are these things to be fucked with. None at all. Case in point: a giant tie-wearing ape playing basketball. You fuck with that, you die...
Yes, that's right, kids.
10,000 posts.
Good Christ, I've wasted so much time here and I've met some great poeple. It's all been worth it, etc.
Andy, thanks for being the coolest MoA&E. Ever. Bar none.
Now for the e-celebration, bitches.
IndieGirl celebrates in the traditional method of...
Yes, that's right. A proper contest! Calling all poets... If you intend to participate, please post below.
How this here thing will work: There will be three legs to the tournament (hence the name), all weighted equally. The three stages are:
Number A: Rhyming Poetry
Number B: Free Verse...
How do you people feel about making IndieGirl our regional poet laureate? IMHO, she's perfect for the job. She's the region's most prolific poet (except maybe the enigmatic French Poodle) and she's fairly quirky. Since the only requirements to be a Poet Laureate are to write the occaisional...
For transparency purposes.
I have unpinned some threads, and cleaned up my stomping grounds.
I edited one post of IndieGirl's for comedic effect, and I may split the posts from the topic in order to keep the discussion relevant and on topic. If I do, it will be given a seperate thread in the...
The Concealment Of Death
Here's an exercise to try at home. You will need a working stopwatch, or another timepiece that measures seconds. Before you begin, seat yourself in a comfortable chair and loosen your clothing.
Watch the second hand as it passes around the face of the clock. Picture...
From this day forward, there will be a strict zero-tolerance policy enacted in the OOC of The North Pacific. Any sensible posts will be ridiculed.
And :fish: 'd.
So watch out, those with more than just a brainstem.
No Masters
If you liked school, you'll love work. The cruel, absurd abuses of power, the self-satisfied authority that the teachers and principals lorded over you, the intimidation and ridicule of your classmates don't end at graduation. Those things are all present in the adult world, only...
No Gods . . . No Masters
No Gods
Once, flipping through a book on child psychology, I came across a chapter about adolescent rebellion. It suggested that in the first phase of a child's youthful rebellion against her parents, she may attempt to distinguish herself from them by accusing them of...
There is a Secret World Concealed Within this One
The lives we lead, and the lives we wish we led.
This world, the so-called “real world,” is just a front. Pull back the curtain and you’ll see the libraries are all filled with runaways writing novels, the highways are humming with escapees and...
Join the Resistance: Fall in Love
Falling in love is the ultimate act of revolution, of resistance to today's tedious, socially restrictive, culturally constrictive, patently meaningless world.
Love transforms the world. Where the lover formerly felt boredom, he now feels passion. Where she...
The Unabomber:
A Hero For Our Time
Pop quiz: what is it called when one of the finest minds of a generation picks a few individuals who are personally involved in the destruction of the environment (a timber-industry lobbyist) or of the attention span and reasoning ability of tens of thousands...
I'm running for Minister of Arts and Entertainment.
Why?
I invented it. Way back when on the old forums. We've heard this before. I was the first one ever, and, I believe, the longest-serving as well. I've done it before, I wanna do it again.
What I will do... Shameless plugs for the OOC...
