Rhindon Blade: CLO!

Not completely sure if its exactly protocol to submit a candidacy speech for the position of CLO, but see as there are quite a few applicants for the position - and given that I'm the first to make a speech on it, you can all thereby conclude that I am quite obviously, by far, the most diligently organized candidate here!! :ph34r:

I'm a relatively new face here in TNP, though I've been around NS for quite a while.
Past achievements include founding and raising a region to 70+ nations, passing a WA resolution, liberating a couple of invaded regions, and climbing Mt. Everest...wait...that's getting into my bucket list. :pinch:

Ever since the days of the Matthuis incident, I've been expressing my support for TNP - primarily because you're a great bunch of people (dirty politics aside), because you're uncannily always bearing the brunt of Gates' less-than-homely intentions (sorry Namyeknom, conflicts are more lively than legislative clauses), and because TNP has an odd (but...rather attractive, I might add!) way with the most unpronounceable of names - including Zemnaya Svoboda, Byardkuria, Grosseschnauzer, Namyeknom, Chodean Kal, Vrtbovska Zahrada etc.

So I'd like to put forth my candidacy before you on the basis of quite a bit of experience, political determination, TNP amicability, and the intention to perhaps familiarize myself a little better with your community, government, and traditions - most especially those bizarre languages. ^_^

But in all seriousness, I hope you'll deem me competent for the position - and I look forward to working closer with you all in the not-too-distant future.
 
Hmm...the...Soye-dinyon-niyi Sch-tati of Zemnay...aye that is certainly one amazing name!

You may not have a silent 'H', Byard, but your three lovely consecutive consonants more than makes up for that. :o
 
Now, now, now, there's one advantage about German names, there are no such things as silent letters, and you pronounce them the way they look.

Gros-se-schnau-zer. That's pretty easy, if you ask me!
 
Except there’s that “sh” sounding “sch” in the middle of the name (I'm assuming), preceded by a ‘s’ and followed by a ‘z’. I personally find quite a few German words a bit tricky.
