I'm not sure snark was called for. It was ten years ago and this isn't really a newspaper. It's a celebration of the Flag – and the region for which it stands.

My post count on the forum that existed in 2004 was really quite high as I recall. :)

Ah, but I still get to talk with you from time to time. :)

• The Region known as "Avengers Assemble" and Bloomshire's fantastic work there. • Hersfold.

In fairness, though, the NS Monopoly collaboration as a gift for Max was pretty cool. It was also fairly neat to team up with folks to buy some wonderful things for Neenee's child.

My favorite moment would probably still get me in trouble with Erastide.

I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for anyone who took a place on the map. There are a few names that stand out from that project - without going to look them up: Boogidiloo (sp) and Hiooland. Bumblegoo, too, whose only post in the forum was to get on the map. Although it isn't...

The structure is fairly straight-forward. The wavy blue and white bands at the bottom are to represent the ocean of the Pacific. This is a fairly standard motif in heraldry for ports and/or naval powers. At the bottom of the waves is a small laurel bow in green. It was never given a specific...

I don't remember what was said while the image was in development/pending approval either. Cool variation.

I loathe coups. Some would say that my becoming delegate counts as one. It happened when Magicality's endo-tally began to decline. Few of us knew that she'd become afk. As a result of my having worked on the map, banners, and flag - my own tally had reached the 300s but it wasn't close enough...

For sentimental reasons: Magicality The only past delegate of the region I've met in person: GBM I've been on the phone with: PD and IP (and maybe one or two others) I'll admit I've lost track of who has been delegate since my term.

I was invited to play NationStates by a friend irl who was a cancer patient at the time. Her nation was Nandemo. She's fine now but she stopped playing the game rather soon after I'd created my first nation. "Thel D'Ran" almost left The North Pacific in favor of some much smaller region. I...

Hello, I'm Thel D'Ran and it is also roughly the tenth anniversary of my having been involved with NationStates. I designed the flag and seal back then and I'll be posting throughout the day with some history and perspective for those who are interested.

A little perspective on Thelegacy... When I joined the game in late March 2004, I did not know much about the game. A friend had asked me to join her goth music fan-oriented region and CTE'd relatively soon thereafter. I'd almost clicked the Move Thel D'Ran to another region button when I got a...

Well, of course it looks Lemurian. A Lemurian designed it. But it is worth pointing out, I think, that the same Lemurian designed the original iconography. I even picked the original TNP blue.

My experience in NationStates leads me to believe that some players may cry "Conspiracy" regarding this development. Rest assured that nothing untoward has happened and that I'm quite pleased that the map project will now resume. I shall continue to consult on it and provide resources when and...

WW, if you're reading... Something done in the name of Magicality can be in very, very poor taste. Here's why... There are still a few of us who actually knew her and talked with her AND are not entirely certain about the state of her health irl. I will respect your right to make an irc...

I'll be organizing things a bit more soon, but here is the Key to location: • A was the home of such nations as The Tresville Element, Hamka, and New Sardonika. The Southern Canal Zone separates if from... • B — the former site of Magicality, Hiooland, and the Grand Atoll (a feature still...

I have to figure out a bit of the math and decide how the territory selection process will work in this incarnation. But El Rano island is reserved for Flem.

Here's the new look (with the old landforms):

Having just spoken with Tresville via phone, I can inform the region that — due to IRL considerations — the festivities to honor Hersfold will be postponed until tomorrow. Those interested in further details should still contact Tresville.

Okay. I know it's been a while. I'll try to get an update posted very soon.

Although there should probably be a special ceremony, and I'm certain that one is being planned, I imagine there will be no argument that Hersfold deserves this: I remember Hers' role in Part123 from quite a long time ago. Even when I was new to the game, I could tell that Hersfold was one of...

So, unless I miscounted, that makes it: 12 for Dalimbar, 3 for Emperor Matthuis, and 3 abstentions. Can someone tell me what the number of registered voters is?

Dalimbar for Delegate! I am Thel D Ran (and Diplomatic Affairs) Woot, democracy.
