You speak, on the region's behalf, to the duck ambassadors from from the Kingdom of Pond.

My nation's 'influence' is currently duckspeaker also. Wikipedia lists duckspeak as a Newspeak (novel "1984") word meaning "automatic vocal support of political orthodoxies". Good ole NS generator, haha

On deepl, it translates with "anketaler" in Danish, if it can help!

In French, it was "haut-parleur de canard", meaning loudspeaker of a duck, doesn't help at all!

Taking a college class in high school? ..You have the mind to remember your SSN.

Speaking of numbers, received a 'notice' today ranking New Sylvan in the top 10% of the world and top 6% of LDA, for Most Politically Free 🤗

I just don’t use it… you don’t use it you lose it. I can’t even remember the last 4 digits.

No it is online through a community college. The theory is if I can graduate with my Associates of Science degree when I graduate HS, then I only have to do two or three years at a 4 year.

Bruh the stock market just did a 50% retracement because of inflation going from 9.2% to 8.5% and the fed hinting it might not raise rates by another 75 basis points. What scares me is that if the market finds support on the 50 day or 100 day moving average, all the technicals are in place for the market to reach new highs when there is a strong possibility the US economy (and much of the global economy) enters a recession sometime in early 2023.

Well let's hope it's not too bad of a recession.

Oh for the love of god. We have already had almost three weeks to discuss the Parli Pro Act as an entire region. There had better be a damn good reason as to why the senate needs an entire week(!!!) to discuss this. I’ve got stuff to do, and little time to do it, and I want this parli pro act passed first.

If you would have just voted me...
But yea, maybe a week is quite long but if somebody will find mistakes then it'll be good to have waited that long.
And also, isn't that really realistic?

If you have more legislation to pass, send it to parliament. It is not necessary to pass that legislation first to offer new laws.

Very well, though I would like to be able to use the Parli Pro Act.

Preamble:
The history between the Liberty Democratic Alliance (LDA) and Democritus (henceforth collectively referred to as ‘the signatories’) is quite extensive. Democritus established embassies with The Royal Alliance II, the predecessor to the LDA, and helped mediate between its successor regions, eventually culminating in the LDA today. This treaty seeks to reaffirm existing bilateral relations and expand areas of joint cooperation in Game Created Events (GCEs) following informal arrangements made during the April 2022 World Trade Fair.

Article I: Treaty Mechanics

1.1 As long as this treaty remains in effect the signatories will maintain embassies between both regions to allow the treaty to be properly executed.

1.2 This treaty does not have the power to override any previous laws or rules in either region.

1.3 Nothing in this Treaty is intended to encompass or otherwise be of relevance, significance, or obligating towards NationStates military gameplay known as 'raiding' and 'defending'.

1.4 Either signatory may withdraw from this treaty and render it void given 48 hours notice in accordance with their respective regional government procedures.

1.5 This treaty recognizes the procedures referenced in 1.4 as a 2/3 majority vote in LDA in the event that a parliamentary procedure act is not in place or a public decree issued by the Sun King of Democritus

Article II: Pertaining to GCEs

2.1 GCEs are to be interpreted as being any official NationStates special event that involves game play.

2.2 Each signatory shall either designate a member, group of members, or integrate into a regional office a role that pertains to GCEs.
2.2.1 To facilitate responsive communication, no more than three members from each signatory may be designated for this GCE role.

2.3 Those holding the GCE roles shall communicate with each other the status of their respective regions GCE preparedness, discuss lessons that have been learned in past GCEs, plan for upcoming GCEs, work on compatibility between regional strategies, and discuss any other relevant information.

2.4 With regards to the communications discussed above in 2.3 the times as follows are mandatory meeting times, unless decided by the designees that the time is unnecessary, with the exception of 2.4.1 and 2.4.2.
2.4.1 The designees shall communicate during the first weeks of January, April, July, and October.
2.4.2 The designees shall communicate the day following any GCE. Most likely after the news release by NationStates Staff.
2.4.3 The designees shall meet weekly starting the last week of August through the last week of October.
2.4.4 The designees shall meet daily starting one week before the predicted start of a GCE.

2.5 In the instance that either signatory finds itself in a state of distress during a GCE, this state of distress will be communicated to the other signatory's designees.
2.5.1 The signatories accept in principle an obligation to offer support to their treaty partner should a state of distress be communicated during a GCE, whilst respecting limitations in respective activity capabilities and measures necessary to protect their own region.

2.6 In the event that the regions find themselves on opposite sides of a GCE activity, unless agreed upon by both regions and properly communicated, the signatories should use all possible means to reconcile. If the aforementioned in 2.6 is not possible then the signatories shall refrain from taking direct action against or otherwise attacking each other, unless agreed upon by both regions.

Article III: Other Instances

3.1 The signatories may communicate with their respective treaty partner at any time regarding potential for further support or collaboration.

3.2 If a nation that is a residing in one signatory is wanted for crimes in the other, or is believed to be a player on the regional ban list, the region should take all possible action to the extent of its law to prevent the nation from causing a disturbance in the other region

Read dispatch

36 hours to debate and then vote on this.
More time can be added if needed. It has already been ratified by democritus.

The region currently lacks clear procedures, so there aren't clear rules for debate. The bill has been publicly available for some time, I agree, but did the members really got familiar with it? Well, I think most of them didn't read this huge wall of text (understandable), and some probably decided to read it in detail (partly or fully) only once it is officially introduced. Considering the huge importance of such an institutional bill, I understand the Chairman's decision to open a long debate time period. But I still cannot say that you are wrong, it was published weeks ago.
That kind of problem (debate time issues) will be solved by this bill.

I have provisionally accepted the Liberal Democratic Union’s embassy request. I will continue to review their region to make sure everything checks out.

As long as they have decided to leave past grievances behind, then there should be no problems. This region was falsely and bitterly accused by some of their members, so benefits of this embassy may be unclear.
