Thank you for your quick responses! I would suggest for next time using some space between various ideas - as posted, it's a bit hard to read.
Some followup:
As for your first question the game was set up in 2002 and wittiness say the North Pacific is one of the oldest region on the game. Therefore, it has existing for more than a decade. Have you ever been to the North Pacific page; it says Where the democracy is strong, the debate robust, and the rum plentiful. Also it said in the constitution and the bill of rights that the citizens of the North Pacific has these rights. I never said TNP failed to live up to these principles but if I'm elected I can enforce these principles.
Yes, you never said that, but all regions fall short of their ideals, some more often than others. I'm hoping you can think of some examples where TNP has done this - either recently or throughout its long history. Learning from the past is part of how we do better in the future.
COE fails at this by not doing what the people want. I asked him for a favor that easily could be done and he never answered me back.
I saw your complaint against him about this, but does that really qualify as not doing what
the people want?
In order to carry out the expressed will of the people, not everyone can get everything they want. If you are elected speaker, you will undoubtedly face situations that will force you to make a decision that will result in someone losing out on something - a position, a vote, and so on. Can you talk a bit about how you would handle this? How would you decide the best approach to handle conflicting interests?
When I first joined the North Pacific, you've read this, I had no friend. So when I started to build up my reputation I greeted every new comer to TNP and offered my friendship. This is how I plan to connect with the TNP citizens.
Will you be doing anything else to connect with TNPers besides just offering friendship? Do you plan to visit the IRC at all?
Do you know bombastic means? It means grandiloquent, pompous speech or writing. So I'm trying to say the world can be superficial and harsh.
But the first set of adjectives you provided doesn't match the second. Which is it - harsh or impressive?
You must be on top of it to succeed which COE needs to work on.
How has he not stayed on top of a world either harsh or impressive? Has he failed to keep up with his duties in some way?
Some powers of the Speaker of the house is to be the citizens representative. He representatives the views of ordinary citizens. Or this is how I see it.
How does the speaker represent the views of the citizens? Are these citizens distinct from the citizens of the RA? How does this representation conflict with the speaker's duties to run the bureaucracy of the RA?
I personally do not think he has failed to execute these powers, but it could have been done better.
In what ways has he fallen short? How could he have done better? How will you do better than he has?
Yes you hit the nail on the head. I feel it is better to communicate on the citizens behave in order to have a successful and cooperative region.
Would you say that it is better to communicate on behalf of the citizens rather than allowing them to communicate themselves? If so, why is that?
When I say use my power responsible I mean to the benefits of the people and not to self-gain. Now, has COE done this, I do not know. He may have but if he did it was not disclosed to the public.
Another thought question for you: Can you describe a scenario where you might feel temptation to use the powers of the Speaker for personal gain? How would you handle this temptation? Is there anything that you would do preemptively to lessen the possibility of abuse of power?
Now this is an interesting question. I will try to use both, regional community and forum community. I would be leading more towards regional community because they don't have input because they are not on the forum. So how will their ideas be used unless I reach out to them.
How would you seek to remain in contact the regional community, seeing as the Speaker does not serve as delegate and cannot send region-wide TGs? Is attempting to engage the regional community a job best fit for the speaker, or is it something that belongs more with, say, the Ministry of Culture? Would trying to reach out to over 5000 nations impede your ability to carry out the administrative tasks of the Speaker?
Once again, thank you in advance for your time.
