~In early through mid April, the National Flag Competition, originally created by Anime Daisuki and now recently revived by Thedairos, was held. The competition was to see who had the best and most creative national flag. After voting had ended, Brickston and Hashari Darussalam both came out as first place and runner-up and were each granted their respective prizes of a legendary card & 100000 Tacos and a legendary card & 50000 Tacos. Check out the full thread here!.

~Congrats to Brickston for being the first place winner of the National Flag Competition!

This month our favorite Regional Pollster, Jabberwocky, brought us two fantastic polls; the first one asked Islanders if they anticipated a better year in 2022 than they had in 2022 and the second one asked Islanders if there is intelligent extraterrestrial life.

In the first poll, there were 180 voters, of which 53 (29.44%) said yes, they’re optimistic, 23 (12.78%) said no, they’re a pessimist, 88 (48.89%) said maybe and decided to withhold judgement until they had seen more of 2022, and 16 (8.89%) said from the viewpoint of eternity, all points in time, past, present and future, coexist simultaneously.

No idea what the last one means, but I’m hoping for the best for everyone in 2022!

In the second poll, there were 194 voters, of which 18 (9.28%) said no, because Homo sapiens is the pinnacle of biological evolution, 160 (82.47%) said yes because it is inconceivable that we are the only intelligent life in the universe, and 16 (8.25%) said no because they’re not convinced that there is intelligent terrestrial life.

I suppose we’ll never know the truth unless space exploration expands considerably in the next few decades. Oh well…

As usual, it was pretty miserable looking through 300 pages worth of January RMB posts...but I did manage to find some hilarious (or perhaps just noteworthy) moments.

~ Definition of laziness

~ Time really files

~ Don’t we all?

~ The dough is a lie.

~ Never!

~ Me too

~ A good question

~ So disappointing…

~ I’ll need to see that in writing

This month, the DelegateMarkanite interviewed Gonggong before their appointment as Senator for Blue Canaria North!.

Mark: First off, how did you join NS and why pick XKI as a region?

Gong: I first joined NS as a nation named Ravanon! At first, I never really joined any region until I made an alt account called Selu-Ahare, where I joined XKI through a telegram from Sulenia inviting me to XKI! A bit after, for RP reasons, I made an alt called Gonggong to join ATA.

Mark: And you've been here ever since! What is your favourite thing about XKI?

Gong: My favorite thing would be the community! For me, it really feels warm and inviting!

Mark: Brilliant! Do you have any additional roles in 10000 Islands? Tell us about them!

Gong: The only role in XKI that I have is Tiboe secretary! As Tiboe secretary, I get to write the monthly summary report for Tiboe and I also answer Liberdon's phone calls and organize her files!

Mark: I know from seeing you work that you are exemplary at your job. TIBOE is such an important group for the region and you and Liberdon are the dream team! What other areas of XKI interest you? Do you have any future ambitions?

Gong: Hmm, in XKI I'd like to run for a seat in the Co9 at some point! Though I'm not entirely sure which one I'd run for, or if I can even run a good platform.

Mark: Well whichever one you choose, I'm sure you will be amazing. 10000 Islands is lucky to have you! Thank you for doing the interview!
