[center][big][b]Questions[/b][/big][/center]
[quote][list=1][b][*]What was your favourite NS moment of 2017?
[*]What are your new years NS resolutions?
[*]What are you most looking forward to this year?
[*]How do you feel about the January General Election?
[*]Where do you want to see yourself in NationStates and our community one year from now?[/b][/list][/quote]
[center][big][b]Answers[/b][/big][/center][quote][b][nation]Deropia[/nation][/b], [i]Minister[/i][hr][b]Q1.[/b] For me it was moving to TNP and joining WA Affairs.
[b]Q2.[/b] I only have one, and that is to become more active on the WA forums and be more involved in helping draft resolutions over the coming year.
[b]Q3.[/b] Honestly I'm looking forward to seeing what comes through the World Assembly in the coming months, from what I've seen on the gameside forum, it's going to be an interesting year!
[b]Q4.[/b] Absolutely fantastic! Gladio was my candidate of choice, his long history of service and dedication to TNP made it easy to back him. As for the other government officials, I think that the voters made the right choices. Siwale, Goy and Darc have done an excellent job in their respective offices since they were elected and definitely earned another term in office.
[b]Q5.[/b] One year from now? I'm not really too sure aha, wherever it is, as long as I'm doing what I can to be of service to the community, I'll be satisfied.[/quote][quote][b]
[nation]Malphe[/nation][/b], [i]Minister[/i][hr][b]Q1.[/b] Passing my NPA Officer test a few months ago, certainly. I'd already failed one test and I was stupidly nervous about it all, so successfully leading my first operation and becoming an officer on the spot was pretty euphoric; I'd been a Sergeant for so long because I was too nervous to lead an operation and breaking through that glass ceiling felt fantastic, and doubtless facilitated my eventual appointment as MoD by Gladio.
[b]Q2.[/b] They're twofold; doing the best job I can in TNP in whatever role I have and properly balancing out RL and NS. Don't underestimate the importance of the latter.
[b]Q3.[/b] My term as MoD; it's a whole new world to me and I'm excited to see what I can do in this term. It's proven far easier than I had imagined, though that's probably a bit of an overstatement considering that the NPA is grounded right now so we're not organizing any operations yet, doubtless I'll have more on my hands before very long.
[b]Q4.[/b] Seeing Gladio running was both wonderful and unusual, and every office had one or more exemplary candidates running for it. That, as well as the high turnout rate, made this my favourite election to date. I've missed one or two already, being involved in this one has convinced me to not miss any more.
[b]Q5.[/b] Hopefully doing my best in TNP and not banned.
[/quote][quote][b][nation]Lozinak[/nation][/b], [i]Deputy Minister[/i][hr][b]Q1.[/b] Joining the NPA was probably my favorite moment of the year. That served as the launching point for me becoming more involved in TNP as a whole.
[b]Q2.[/b] My resolution is to continue is to aid the MoD however I can, and ensure the NPA is just as active in 2018.
[b]Q3.[/b] I'm most looking forward to hopefully getting in to RP as I should have more time to write this semester.
[b]Q4.[/b] I was happy to see Gladio run, as he has been something a mentor for me since I first joined the TNP. Despite all the drama we also had record turn out and some close, exciting races. I think that really speaks to how dedicated the TNP community is.
[b]Q5.[/b] Hopefully still working in the NPA and Executive staff.[/quote][quote][b][nation]Konar[/nation][/b], [i]Citizen[/i][hr][b]Q1.[/b] It would have to be N-Day, and Josephtan acheiving martyrdom.
[b]Q2.[/b] To be more active in the departments of TNP that I am part of, and perhaps to join more.
[b]Q3.[/b] N-Day, Z-Day, and more joint operations with other militaries.
[b]Q4.[/b] It was exciting to see the candidates be neck in neck; however, Lord Ravenclaw's pull-out of NS put a damper on it, as well as the contention of a defaced ballot which, I felt, was not settled amicably.
[b]Q5.[/b] Hopefully, I'll be able to have become a General at that point. Being able to contribute meaningfully to the departments I am in and may join is also a hope of mine.
[/quote][quote][b][nation]Novare Res[/nation][/b], [i]Security Council[/i][hr][b]Q1.[/b] I can't say. I was hiding. In hibernation. Lurking, that is. Which is what I should have done for the most part since game started.
[b]Q2.[/b] be nice to people - even the ones who are not so nice to me. Eat more cheese. The good stuff.
[b]Q3.[/b] Getting back into being more involved.
[b]Q4.[/b] Well, I didn't get to vote because the server that hosts the forum kept kicking my connection (a glitch involving FireFox browser which wasn't easy to fix at my end). I would have voted for McMasterdonia who lost by one vote. Never say one's vote doesn't count.
[b]Q5.[/b] Sitting back and watching how the latest generation handles things.
[/quote][quote][b][nation]Hesskin Empire[/nation][/b], [i]Citizen[/i][hr][b]Q1.[/b] Illuminati Raid
[b]Q2.[/b] Finally get RP done!
[b]Q3.[/b] RP!
[b]Q4.[/b] It was fun, a good race as well!
[b]Q5.[/b] Hopefully an active RP member and possibly in the politics somewhere somehow!
[/quote][quote][b][nation]Zazumo[/nation][/b], [i]Citizen[/i][hr][b]Q1.[/b] Finally completing 100 NPA operations. I put in a lot of hours to get that ribbon.
[b]Q2.[/b] To lead more NPA ops. Stepping in for Loz a couple times helped my confidence to lead.
[b]Q3.[/b] Gladio's term as delegate and Malphe's term as MoD. Best of luck to both of them and the entire executive staff!
[b]Q4.[/b] Could not be more excited. After working with Gladio during countless missions it's great to see him in the delegate seat!
[b]Q5.[/b] Continuing my work with the NPA. Hopefully a Major if I play my cards right.
[/quote][quote][b][nation]Nordpazifik[/nation][/b], [i]Citizen[/i][hr][b]Q1.[/b] Oof. That's a hard one. There's been a lot of fun things - Government work, RP, R/D - but in the end, I'll have to go with the two issues I wrote being published.
[b]Q2.[/b] Get more involved, but at the same time balancing RL and NS better.
[b]Q3.[/b] Who knows?
[b]Q4.[/b] I didn't vote in it, but I'm excited to see what the new administration will bring.
[b]Q5.[/b] It would be really nice if I was like instantly recognizable in the GCR community (if not the wider NS community), but in a year? Only time will tell.
[/quote][quote][b][nation]Kaschovia[/nation][/b], [i]Minister[/i][hr][b]Q1.[/b] Being the best MoFA this region has ever seen (sarcasm)...
[b]Q2.[/b] Have more fun doing things on NationStates.
[b]Q3.[/b] Running for Delegate in September (sarcasm again.)
[b]Q4.[/b] Content as one can be about an election.
[b]Q5.[/b] As Delegate (even more bad sarcasm!)[/quote][quote][b][nation]Siwale[/nation][/b], [i]Vice Delegate[/i][hr][b]Q1.[/b] Joining TNP's regional forum, of course! Little did I know at the time just how involved I would soon get in the regional government.
[b]Q2.[/b] I'm not a big fan of New Year's resolutions, mainly because they hardly ever stick. I prefer to make changes as the need for them arises throughout the year.
[b]Q3.[/b] Seeing what Gladio will accomplish this term as our newly elected Delegate!
[b]Q4.[/b] No complaints. I am certain that all of the elected officials will perform flawlessly this term.
[b]Q5.[/b] Still as involved in TNP as I am now!
[/quote][quote][b][nation]Xagill[/nation][/b], [i]Minister[/i][hr][b]Q1.[/b] Being a minister of communications!
[b]Q2.[/b] Being Vice Delegate.
[b]Q3.[/b] The changes that will come.
[b]Q4.[/b] Content, it was a fun and close race.
[b]Q5.[/b] Just trying to continue to be active.[/quote]This month I decided to ask questions in relation to the new year.
