There's always a bigger apocalypse to look forward to 😜

Nuke(s)? Or do you mean something else?

Speaking of nukes, does anyone want to be our point-person to coordinate N-Day this year? I've received an offer from Canopy, one of the largest alliances, to have us join, but I'd like to have someone in or related to Operations be in charge. It should be super easy; last year Refuge had to coordinate things more or less entirely on her own, since it was more or less over for Refugia by the time I got home from work. Being within Canopy would require our person to more or less have a couple discussions with the highly experienced people there and give the rest of us instructions on what would be expected of us.

This would also be a great way to build up experience if you're interested in eventually getting a Councillor position ^-^

Greetings, my vacation has come to a close. So sad, but also so lovely to be back.

I highly recommend taking advantage of this opportunity if anyone wants to be a part of a large group project. As well, Canopy is the region that is least likely to be decimated by radiation, as they are almost entirely defence-oriented. I will be largely unavailable for N-Day this year, so if anyone else would like to help out in this project, you can participate with them when the time comes and represent Refugia at the same time. They will have a command group there that will provide some specific guidance about what to do, so you won't be entirely lost

Doublepost! But I'd like to gently recommend Refugia vote for the current GA repeal that I am toootally not connected to in any way.

My positionis that a resolution which aims to provide legal protections for journalists should be written mindful of the perspective of a country that does not wish to protect them, rather than one that does. If a resolution is able to, in several different ways, allow the country to ignore all of those protections if it wishes or doesn't care for press coverage, it doesn't actually provide any protection at all. Additionally, because the exclusions have been explicitly written in, they cannot be resolved by band-aid resolutions, subsequently, and so the whole process must start over.

Hey! I started this nation a few months ago as I got tired with my old one. My nation is centrist and supposed to be capitalist but an issue sorta messed that up. Anyhow, good to be here.

I'm glad that I was able to change your mind ^_^

Welcome to Refugia, it's awesome that you're here! It's possible to change your nation back to capitalism if you find one of the issues that does it, but I can certainly understand wanting to start over.

The fact that Victoria gets to remain the capital even when we've enveloped Alberta makes me incredibly smug. Welcome to the region!

Ha thanks!

My apologies for asking, but is it alright if I could get a few endorsements? I’d very much like to start writing a few resolutions for the WA

I highly recommend coming up with a draft and posting it on the NS discussion forum before going straight to submission. In any event, it only takes two endorsements to submit a proposal, so you have the requisite amount.

I have also endorsed Sylh Alanor.

Thanks friends <3

I also recommend endorsing Refuge since y'know--they are the founder. But don't endorse Refuge to where she has more endorsements than Sylh Alanor.

One year as delegate was enough for me 😜

Hi, I'm new here! Just started my nation a couple days ago - does anyone know why 7% of deaths in my nation are due to "lost in wilderness"? It was like that when I started my nation so I don't think it's related to any of my answers to issues.
