Yeah, the east pacific used to be really corrupt and cutthroat. I feel I've grown a bit weak being around the South Pacific so long.

A single questions for all LC candidates that I stole from Dear Prairie: (Melicorium, Kerlodia, Briteannia, Imperial dodo, Royaltica, 
Drystar, The high and papal parky of parkguiness, Treesil, Auphelia, 
Volaworand, Western fardelshufflestein, 
Concrete Slab)
Say that 
Amerion fellow is questioning your reign as a perfect Local Councillor. What torture/tactic would you use to put him in his place?

Ah, Astoria left the region.
Wonderful.

Exactly my sentiment. My use of “you” was as a general statement to apply to Ministers in general, but dear Fi has done an admirable job. A generally admirable job indeed!

Thanks for the question Fihami,
TSP already has a very accessible government. It's pretty easy for folks to become Legislators and get involved in the Assembly, or join in the discussion on discord. People can easily work on whatever project they are passionate about (assuming they know what's happening). As far as transparency, I can understand Cabinet being most responsive to Assembly legislators... that's who elects them, after all! It's just appreciated when the cabinet sends news back home here to the Gameside Mother Country. It's always nice to hear what the offsite colonialists are up to, and it may even prompt some to make the voyage out for a visit.
1. Yes. They are redundant: all of these activities, if they become a problem, are already covered under I. Thou Shalt Not Spam.
2. I appreciate her polls as entertaining. Last time I was on the LC with her, I accually managed to run a poll on this very topic page=poll/p=145215 and I stand by my response: "Her polls give us hope of overcoming the injustices of capitalist democracy and creating a brighter future for everyone."
3. Not how it has been practiced thus far. If you would like to dig further into my brain, you can find out where I am on the political spectrum in this dispatch:
While Volaworand has developed into a corporate playground for the world's poverty-challenged adventure seekers, the player behind Volaworand has somewhat different beliefs...
Those of you who have had the pleasure of chatting me up know I'm a raging leftie... but what specific kind of leftie?
Well...
If I had to nail it down I would go with this:
Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism is a phrase associated with far left movements on the internet. It envisions an idealistic society where gender norms have been abolished to such an extent that there is little to no difference between gay and straight, and due to automation, luxury is available to all people. Some communities substitute "queer" for "gay" as it is perceived as more inclusive. Other communities replace "Communism" with more specific ideologies such as Anarchism. Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism is a philosophy which first began appearing in works of science fiction and academic theory.
On November 10th, 2014, a prominent believer in the philosophy, Aaron Bastani, uploaded an explainer of Fully Automated Luxury Communism to YouTube

Thanks 
Saint Cinder (and North prarie) for the chance to address this most serious and pressing matter!
Well, first off, that would just never happen, everyone loves an adorable penguin coup. If, in some weird parallel universe, this odd situation were to come to pass, I suppose I would lock him in the Dungeon of Mass Pings for the night and see if he was still alive and more cooperative after a day or two.

It is not wonderful, zess. I am still active and will remain active in the south pacific.

Have you left a puppet behind for us to beat up while you are away? :-)

I don't have any puppets anymore I only ever had 1.

You didn't even address the gameside people in this comment. The forums are not viewable unless you have an account, which you have to be granted permission to join. That's already gatekeeping in the literal sense. Some of those forums are not viewable to people with regular accounts either. There is literally zero way for someone who only plays gameside to become a legislator or anything besides an LC officer, and there are ZERO reports coming out of government that are published for people here in this grand RMB. Sure, maybe some officials post them on their page, but I can tell you that I'm not going to see it unless it's posted here. Your whole response is grossly negligent to gameside only people.
There is ZERO transparency and ZERO accountability for people in this great RMB, and god damn it there should be. Especially about the rules that "we" have to follow, we never even voted on them! Someone just decided them for us, and look how that turned out!
No suppression without representation!

Similar Question:
What torture/tactic would you use to put Saint Cinder in his place if he calls you a heathen?
Drystar, Amerion, Aidenfieeld, Concrete Slab, and 5 othersProctethia, Briteannia, Melicorium, Purple Hyacinth, and Saint Cinder
N-no one wants to hear that question! Obviously I am too cute to execute.
Aidenfieeld, Proctethia, Melicorium, and Purple Hyacinth
The question didn't ask the method of execution

Hm. Most of the LC campaigns are quite similar. It seems that the RMB is not the flaming dumpster that it was during one of my runs...

What is your ideal RMB? The South Pacific, though it could use more moments where we all stop and break out into song to sing about what we are doing.
What is your view on RMB RP? Role Play that is Safe, Sane, and Consensual doesn't bother me at all.
What makes you fit to govern the RMB? Is the RMB really "governable"? Setting that aside, I've done it before, and thanks a oh-so-super-fun COVID layoff, I have the time to help guide and guard it again.
Do you support gameside representation in the Cabinet? I think Canadians should be represented in the Queen's Privy Council of Canada, and American's be represented in the White House. Everyone in Cabinet is from gameside, so I don't really see it as needed. Cabinet, when not busy in all their cabinetry, are most welcome to stay active in gameside. I would love to see the cool cabinetry they've made: base, wall, tall, kitchen even bathroom, preferably something with a nice flooded glaze finish.
How active are you offsite? (forums, discord) I'm around both enough to qualify as active. Last time I served on the LC I found the @BorderControl Discord tag very helpful the odd times when spammers disrupted the RMB. A quick peek at my forum user profile tells me this: Posts: 572 (0.58 per day | 0.28 percent of total posts), Reputation: 143. Registration Date: 11-17-2017, 12:36 AM, Is that active? I don't roleplay offsite, so I suppose maybe my numbers be higher, but I prefer to play the game how I play the game. I know our offsite resources well enough to connect folks to the right place when they want it.
Would you support abolishing the LC? Would you support restructuring it? No. I do not think that the oldest democracy in NationStates should abolish the only elected law making body within TSP's government structure. And Yes. I absolutely think TSP can continue show our leadership by continually improving our democracy. Check the "LC moonshots" portion of my campaign dispatch.
Do you think that Cabinet members should be required to be active on the RMB? This isn't really within the realm of the Local Council, so I will respond in my capacity as a Legislator: No, an activity requirement would be weird to codify and clunky to enforce. But Cabinet's communications and contributions are always most welcome on the RMB. FiHami's weekly post with a dispatches outlining what the SPSF are up to is a perfect example.
Do you think that LCers should be required to be Legislators? No.
What is your view on Defenderism? R/D gameplay is not the purview of the Local Council. On an unrelated note, do remind me to ask the next Cabinet nominee's for their views on the finer points of RMB emoticon usage and double posting policies. Anyway, to address your question: Fenda 4eva! We should have declared as a defender region ages ago, as it fits our regional values, so I'm quite happy.
