Since Aberdeen has neither a consulate nor an ambassador to the North Pacific, I figured reprinting their regional report would best serve in keeping us up-to-date on the goings on there:

The News From Aberdeen!
Nations - 107
Delegate Endorsements - 13
Regional Power - High
forum - http://s11.invisionfree.com/aberdeen/

Government activity -
We recently held MP elections and since there were really only two candidates (our Prime Minister, Forgottenlord, introduced a third candidate, Forgottenlord's X-Box so as to make the elections a little more interesting, but needless to say the X-Box lost - probably because more nations in Aberdeen prefer the Playstation consoles over the x-box ) there was no real doubt who would win.
The nations of Mittsville, and PGrier are now Aberdeen's two official MPs. You can read the election announcement HERE.
In other government news the Minister of Immigration, Hekloslogravia, was brought up on charges in the regional court for spamming the region by repeating the same words to a song over and over again in posts on both the RMB and the forum. This was the first case to be heard under the new Law 8, Judiciary Act. Heklo pleaded guilty (more because he didn't want to be the show trial for the new law than because he thought he had actually spammed). Read HERE for the verdict and the transcript of the trial.
Aberdeen has entered into an alliance (defensive) with Flavian Amphitheatre. This brings our allies to a total of three regions (Hyrule and Futaba Aoi being the others)
An embassy was also opened in the region of Jethnea.
In Legislative news, Bill 11 was passed and became Law 8 (mentioned above), and Bill 12, Regulations Regarding Unclaimed Territory, is currently at vote.
There have been calls for Government reform and the region is currently waiting for reform proposals from Hekloslogravia.
Mittsville, as part of his duty as Minister of Cartography has created more colorful map of Aberdeen:
One final note, our region's founder, Dundee East, has sent a mass email to all registered forum users, in order to promote the forum and hopefully entice a few people back.
Roleplaying -
One of the most popular and long standing RP is still the revolution in Hekloslogravia. Read HERE to see all the action.
Forgottenlord and Dancing Bananland are still RPing out the aftermath of the terrorist attack in DBL. You can read the last few entries HERE.
There has been talk of doing a couple different RPs on the forum as well. A possible "alternate history" American Civil War is currently being planned (read here) and a possible alien invasion RP is being discussed too.
As you can read, much has been happening in Aberdeen! Thanks for reading, and until the next update, keep in touch! B)
