c. Polls shall be open for 12 hours (opened by the Speaker), and shall last from 8:00 A.M. to 8:00 P.M.. Only World Assembly Members and King Regions may vote for Elections Commissioner.
if you need justification, btw, I'll give some: Don't support pius, because we have a legitimate cause for stopping them. They are implausibly overextended so those of us actually affected and marked on the Scoutenia map are at risk, whereas you all are not marked at the Scoutenia map and therefore might support it because you'd think it has little influence. Please, don't help Pius in fighting us, as if we lose this could create serious geopolitical issues in Scoutenia that could remove the entire RP section of the game by taking over all available space and picking off the rest of the nations
Mundane
For real? I asked like a thousand times what happens sans no one told me.
Mundane
So you guys are playing risk

Mundane
Can’t I just resign from ElectionsOfficial if I win Delegate
uuhhhhh, no but same concept. He already is massively OP, the other major world powers (none as powerful as Pius, however) are trying to stop him from ruining the fun RP aspects of the game
Mundane
Pius even admitted to it being a game of risk.

Please listen to Pius desurongcrandis's side to this, it is actually very fair and reasonable and yes, you guys ARE playing a gigantic very complicated game of risk.
i don't know that risk is the best comparison, but if that's what you see it as, that works But unlike risk, me and the other people are trying to keep the RP part of it fun, which is hard to do when the majority of our clear area to expand into is taken. Pius is centered on the great lakes, with only New York and Boston as prominent harbors. However, he has landlocked colonies in Montana, Utah, Arizona, Europe, and Africa (roughly German east Africa), despite there being nations between him and those areas. This issue would be quickly resolved by a few powers getting mad and declaring war. However, Pius keeps citing that it has been a continuous nation for longer and uses his huge population to command the rest of us around. To counter the argument that Pius needs this territory: Pius claims to be amongst the best, if not the best, at technology. With the right design for cities and farmland, Pius could definitely support such a large population in the area surrounding the great lakes. The large swaths of power Pius holds stops us from doing anything slightly against Pius. If we can't, at the least, fend ourselves off from Pius and keep a clear path of expansion available, the game no longer becomes playable and people start to leave or lose interest, making it boring for the rest of us (if we're surrounded by inactive nations, no arguments between any of them can ensue).
The only argument I've heard from Pius is that this territory is necessary to sustain his huge population. This is incorrect. Not only does the great lakes provide enough food to feed all those people, if farmland is properly treated, many modern countries with large populations import substantial amounts of food by exporting the goods and services the population provides. Furthermore, unlike what NS stats might have you think, populations actually plateau over time as all the food is eaten. Thus, at some point, the stats will no longer be accurate to the map we chose. Wikipedia's page on human overpopulation puts estimates on how many people the earth can support between 4 billion and 16 billion people. Nationstates is not bound by such a result.
Trying to stop Pius from this devastating overextension will be hard enough without you guys supporting him. So I ask that you don't.
If you have any questions or any thoughts that you think can change my perspective on the matter, please do tell.
As of September 7th, three government positions are still open. The Journalist, which was supposed to be chosen on September 6th, has yet to be chosen. It shall be chosen by all position holding members of Region Name. The WA Delegate will hopefully be voted on on September 19th, if everything goes by the schedule. Once the wining Regionian of the Delegate position is voted for, he will pick the Defense Minister. If you would like a chance at one of these positions, please state so in the RMB.
Present Candidates
Journalist Pius ii Los veganos WA Delegate Mundane New gwapington ii
Mundane Becomes Elections Official
On September 3rd, Mundane won the Elections Official position 2-1-0 against his fellow opponents, New gwapington ii and Pius ii. New gwapington ii was the nation with the one vote. Mundane said this, after the election : "I will run for WA Delegate anyway, and if I win the position, I will resign from Elections Official." Another source told me that if Mundane did resign from Elections Official, another election would be held later in September, so start making those campaign letters Region Name!
Region Name Totally Inactive?
If you haven't noticed already, Region Name is slowly becoming inactive. Besides the occasional post from Minimark or Mundane, nothing is happening. We all know the reason and if you don't, here it is : The school wifi and laptops does not allow NS. This is angering and annoying. I know. What has happened to our nuclear wars and huge arguments over how to spell rogue or how much C4 is a lot?! Homework and school. Dammit, this is so bad that I literally have no other stories to write. There is hope though, I hope. Tech people, do something. I mean lets try to get in wars on the weekends. I guess a good sign is that, the region is peaceful and out of harms way. I don't even know why I wrote this story. Do any of you people even read this? If so tell me on the RMB. And also, if you have hope, say that on the RMB too. Oh, and if you want to help Pius desurongcrandis in his war, tell him. And if you want to help out in writing stories, tell me. I'll send you the info. Thanks.
