Ah, welcome to our hallowed halls, Equilismer. I'm sure posting here will not raise anybody's hairs. Foreign Affairs Minister Caer_Rialis will certainly point you in the right direction. Also, sorry about sending you that private message about the DSP. I assumed that you were an SP citizens. |

Equilism Update January 19, 2007 Monarch: Westwind Lord Chancellor: Neo-Conservatism Population: 155 Regional Power: Very High Forum Link: http://www.equilism.org/forum Equilism Wiki: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Category:Equilism UN Resolutions - The UN Resolution “No Ex Post Facto Laws”: voting stands at 3-0-1. Foreign Affairs Work continues on creating a ambassador training course, being developed by Chancellor Tycholand, head of foreign affairs. To be used along with an already existing list of regional profiles, the course will help familiarize new ambassadors to the complexities on NationStates politics. Military Affairs The Chancellory of Defense continues its work on the Military Liaison Program [MLP]. In the next phase of the development of this program Equilism has begun reaching out to like-minded regions for the exchange of military liaisons. The College of Equilism Recently the College finished the new constitution, and now the Judiciary has begun its review of the document. The Judiciary will add their comments and concerns during this review period, then the College will make final revisions and vote on the document. A Motion of Amnesty for Naivetry was brought in front of the College by Lord Chancellor Neo-Conservatism, to excuse actions of her's during the split. It was signed and approved by Westwind in the following statement:
Amongst the threads of disclosure being posted by members, discussing their actions during the split, Warring Minorities has requested dual-citizenship, with his puppet, the Minority of Odo, residing in Equilism. It was during the discussion that Warring Minorities added a quote to the great entity of Equilism knowledge.
If you're curious, here is the thread: http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=4631 Bar & Games Drunk Equilismers were heard happily celebrating the birthday of Special Envoy Notherfork. Thankfully there were no injuries, fights, or funny business during the celebrations, but Westwind was there, so you never know. Amongst the many topics Equilismers discuss aimlessly, weather, computer troubles, random thoughts, and music have been at the top of the list. And when we're not talking, we're playing games. Several quizzes have become popular, and other long loved games continue to be played in excess. Role Playing & Main Street Amongst the casual random role playing that always takes place, discussions on the value of an equiliant, and the Notherforkian Choco Bun Bunny Crisis have been popular lately. Also a new forum, Main Street, has been opened to the public. This forum is designed to allow members to open shops for other members to buy and trade goods. |

Equilism Update January 26, 2007 Monarch: Westwind Lord Chancellor: Neo-Conservatism Population: 153 Regional Power: Very High Forum Link: http://www.equilism.org/forum Equilism Wiki: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Category:Equilism UN Resolutions - The UN Resolution “No Ex Post Facto Laws” was voted 4-0-1 in favour. Foreign Affairs Re-organisation of Foreign Affairs continues as relations with new regions are being considered. Treaties with other regions are in the works. Want to actually learn to be a good Ambassador or Diplomat? Equilism has the answer! The Diplomatic Training Course has started in Equilism’s University. For those of you who are interested, see the Admission’s Office thread in The Equilism University. Foreign visitors are welcome to sign-up for the course! Military Affairs Equilism’s brave lads (and lasses) have been spotted in OTG, NationStates Bible Church and, more recently, in SPACE (though no Space Shuttles, Soyoez rockets or Star ships were found there…) The College of Equilism Amendments to the “Uniform Role Playing Currency Law” have been suggested. This amendments includes the scrapping of several passages and the implementation of a conversion rate: 1 Equillant, our Role-Play currency, will be equal to 1 Real-Life US Dollar. However, Westwind still needs to sign/enforce the amendment. The discussion about the New Constitution has moved off to a private room. The Judiciary branch of our region is currently looking at the proposed Constitution. We have yet to hear from them. Bar & Games A couple of days ago, it was Westwind’s birthday! A royal turnout, as many Equilismers congratulated Westwind with his birthday. For the rest, the usual games are being played and Equilism is addicted to quizzes. However, no Equilismer will ever spam… uh-huh. Role Playing & Main Street RP activity is almost non-existent, with “who will post last?” generating the main activity. Meanwhile, all intelligence services in NationStates are trembling at the opening of Scandinavian Duchie’s “The Shady Side” Main Street. This company is a detective bureau and a private agent. I wonder if he could stalk himself…? Bought your car at the Dealership on Main Street? Rev up your engine and drive straight to Nootz Customs for some pimping of your ride! Noot’s new company customizes your vehicle. ![]() Reunification Festival The Reunification Festival is going extremely well! However, due to all the scavengers participating in the Scavenger Hunt, the forum does have a bit of a tattered look to it… Don’t be surprised to find a couple of Equilismers wandering around the forum, trying to find the answer to the clue… The pool is emptying fast as the Equilism Pool Party progresses. So far, Wagger-tribe, Whitewolfe, Bogans & Boozers, Tycholand, Westwind, Pope Lexus X, Nagabeth, Astarial and Tse Moana have been taken out of the pool, leaving five swimmers behind. So far, no one has pushed the Judge into the pool. Revenge is sweet… Visitors to the Ball are dancing, drinking (and I do mean drinking…) or chatting. Several members of royal families have been spotted, but Prince William and his girlfriend have yet to have. Voting has started on the new Monarch’s title and the King and Queen of the Ball! The E-cademy awards have been handed out. Compliments to Restored Othalla and Tse Moana for a fantastic job! You can still visit the Reunification Ball, just hop over to Equilism’s forum! |

Equilism Update February 2, 2007 Monarch: Westwind Lord Chancellor: Neo-Conservatism Population: 159 Regional Power: Very High Forum Link: http://www.equilism.org/forum Equilism Wiki: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Category:Equilism Foreign Affairs Ambassador Felasia has left his post in Crimea, being reassigned to North Pacific; Great Britain and Ireland. Also Ambassador MILLITARISM has taken the Rejected Realms and Wall Street posts, while Ambassador Tarricoe is taking the Founderless Regions Alliance post. Military Affairs E-Army helicopters, warships and fighter aircraft have been spotted in NationStates Bible Church and Secularia. The College of Equilism The amendment to the “Uniform Role Playing Currency Law” has passed into law after being signed by the Monarch Westwind. This amendments includes the scrapping of several passages and the implementation of a conversion rate. The new Constitution has been ratified by the College, and now has been forwarded to the Monarch for final approval. Equilism should have a fully-ratified Constitution (providing Wesrwind agrees with it;) ) within a very short time! Bar & Games Talk talk, talk seems to be the theme of the week for Equilism. Many Equilismers have been heard discussing several new pictures being posted in the "Photo Gallery 1: Yourself" thread: http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=87&st=1280 Discussion about members' absences and illnesses, what we're listening to, and the ages of our members have aslo been taking place while our members play many posting games and quizzes. The “Who will post next thread?” deserves a special mention: it passed the 10,000 post-mark a couple of days ago… Role Playing & Main Street Many old and new threads have been in popularity of late, with the E-Bar being, as usal, the most popular. Have a cheating spouse, a missing child, or an annoying neighbor? Hire "The Shady Side" private detectives. They'll investigate anyone or anything, for the right price. So come on in, don't be afraid. Let Scandinavian Duchies's "The Shady Side" take care of all your private investigation needs: http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=4722 Bought your car at the Dealership on Main Street? Rev up your engine and drive straight to Nootz Customs for some pimping of your ride! Noot’s new company customizes your vehicle: http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=4723 Reunification Festival The pool is empty as the Equilism Pool Party comes to its end. Wagger-tribe, Whitewolfe, Bogans & Boozers, Tycholand, Westwind, Pope Lexus X, Nagabeth, Astarial, Tse Moana, Ellezelles, Notherfork, Naivetry, and The Merlion have been ejected, leaving Restored Othalla (game judge) the winner. Many members are claiming shenanigans and demanding investigations for foul play. |

Equilism Update February 16, 2007 Monarch: Westwind Lord Chancellor: Restored Othalla Population: 152 Regional Power: Very High Forum Link: http://www.equilism.org/forum Equilism Wiki: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Category:Equilism Foreign Affairs Equilism has opened relations with Lichentia and The East Pacific. The College of Equilism Congratulations again to Restored Othalla! He is Equilism’s new Lord Chancellor! More about that can be found in the Special (election) Update which is posted in the Embassy. The Oath of Office taken by Restored Othalla:
The First Cabinet of the Realm of Equilism has been announced: Chancellor fof Internal Affairs: Nagabeth Chancellor fof Foreign Affairs: Tycholand Chancellor for Defense: The Merlion Chancellor for Intelligence: Tse Moana Shortly after the Cabinet-announcement, Westwind signed his approval. Current College agenda-points are: - College Law and Procedure - The Military Liaison Pact with Jethnea is being voted on. - A possible treaty with The Pacific - Equilism’s future with regard to its membership of the ADN. It is expected that a vote about this matter will be held shortly. Elections for the Chancellor of the Realm The Chancellor of the Realm is Equilism’s UN Delegate. The position is separate from any government position. Registered candidates will have to lobby for endorsements. Current standing: Wagger-tribe: 18 endorsements Thoughtful Ideas: 8 endorsements Bar & Games Instruments, Cybernations, age, Chauce’s prestigious award and dying puppets are dominating The Bar. Meanwhile, the usual games are popular and Equilism continues its new passion for quizzes. However, I do dount that RO’s “1000 posts in 2 months”-thread will actually achieve its goal… Role Playing & Main Street ”Who will post last?” has turned into a full-scale battle scene with posters trying to, sometimes violently, overtake each other on bikes, carpets, lunar rovers, etc…. Tycholand’s flying carpet is causing a big headache for the participants, but rumours have it that Tycholand has been pulled-over by the police for flying an unregistered carpet… In Main Street, Wagger-tribe has opened a Tourist Information office. This is the place for when you need a friendly face to guide you around in Main Street. Promoting your company at the Tourist Office by means of leaflets is also possible. Equiliants are back! The Equiliants are back! With the posting of topics and replies, it is possible to earn CASH EQUILIANTS on the forum, which can be spent at the Store! Credit goes to Tse Moana for re-starting this system! |

Congratulations! Bar & Games The usual games are still popular. A stream of casualties have arrived at the ER, all related to the new Google Fight thread. Meanwhile, in the “1000 posts in two months” thread, Nagabeth accusations have been flying around that Tycholand eats kiddies, with this being the ultimate proof: ![]() Role Playing & Main Street ”The last one wins” remains a battle-scene, with various people fighting to maintain their recently-gained leading-position, only to lose it to someone else an hour later… In any case, magic carpets have been banned by thread-creator Ellezelles. Wagger-tribe submitted a request for an Inquisition against Tycholand, accusing him of cheating to win “who will post last?”. High Templar Astarial has dismissed the case. In Main Street, Merl’s Live Music Pub is in the spotlight. Restored Othalla, Tse Moana and K’Lach have been spotted on the stage there. The Merlion has opened a “Privatised Prison System” where people can be held in cells and also tortured. First inmate? Tycholand, who has been accused of eating kiddies and is now being tortured… Borealium has opened a thread about his bustling metropolis, Faireport, providing interesting details about this city. Equilism Winter Olympics The Equilism Winter Olympics are about to start! Tse Moana has posted a schedule with the dates of the different events. The Games will start on February 24th and last until March 18th. We wish the participating athletes and nations all the best! |

Hello ![]() I've send two pm's about the ambassador exchange between Equilism and the south pacific but no-one has responded. I've been posting the weekly updates from Equilism for some time now but when can we expect an ambassador from The South Pacific in Equilism? If he or she cannot find the way I would be happy to show him/her the way (After a nice stop of drinking something bubbly). I will even redecorate your embassy by painting the walls, putting up a pretty picture, get you some flowers and of course some nice furniture. I await your response, Nagabeth Equilism Ambassador Chancellor of Internal Affairs in Equilism |

Equilism Update March 2, 2007 Monarch: Westwind Lord Chancellor: Restored Othalla Population: 154 Regional Power: Very High Forum Link: http://www.equilism.org/forum Equilism Wiki: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Category:Equilism Foreign Affairs Foreign Affairs is looking at closing relations with several regions. Relations with The South Pacific have started officially. Military Affairs E-Army soldiers were spotted The College of Equilism - The ADN-vote has been suspended, pending a vote on Westwind’s new plan (which in its turn has been suspended due to new Director-elections). - The Treaty with the Pacific has been voted on, with the result being 5-4-2 (aye, nay, abstain). However, this does not meet the required 2/3 majority in the yet-to-be ratified Laws & Procedures of the College of Equilism-law. - Tse Moana has posted a new draft of the College Law and Procedure, titled Laws & Procedures of the College of Equilism - Closer cooperation with the Founderless Regions Alliance (FRA) are still on the College’s agenda. UN-voting Equilism voted 5-1-1 (aye, nay, abstain) for the repeal of “Hydrogen Powered Vehicles”. This is the first resolution-vote under our new Delegate/Chancellor of the Realm, Wagger-tribe. Bar & Games Dydd Gwyl Dewi Hapus – or “Happy St. David’s Day” to all Welsh-people out there! Buffeytown took this opportunity to start a “What does it mean to be Welsh?” thread. The usual games are still popular. There are doubts that we will reach make the “1000 posts in two months” challenge made by Restored Othalla in time… Caption Contest number 28 has started! The Equilism Winter Olympics are under way, and a number of nations have already obtained a fair amount of medals. More in a future update! (But you can always check-out the Equilism Winter Olympics forum yourself;) ) Role Playing & Main Street The Inquisition-request against Tycholand (accused of child-eating) has been dismissed due to a lack of response from Restored Othalla. Meanwhile, all kinds of arms-fire can be heard from the “who will post last?”-thread as people strive to be the first – at all costs. Magic carpets and invisibility cloaks have been banned. This means that Tycholand can no longer fly on his magic carpet that has irritated numerous participants in the past. (He now continuously zooms into the lead in an SR-91 Aurora). In other RP-happenings, Borealium is trying to establish his place in Equilism and Tycholand has started a topic about Ambassador Island’s (a spot on the Equilism map) function. In Main Street, Merl’s Live Band Pub is full of customers – including the Monarch himself and singers such as Tse Moana and K’Lach! |

Equilism Update March 9, 2007 Monarch: Westwind Lord Chancellor: Restored Othalla Population: 150 Regional Power: Very High Forum Link: http://www.equilism.org/forum Equilism Wiki: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Category:Equilism Foreign Affairs Foreign Affairs has just re-opened relations with the British Overseas Territory, a member-region of the FCSTO. Just a reminder, there is a Diplomatic Training Course in Equilism’s University. The course teaches the basics of diplomacy and the Ambassadorship. The course is not only open to Equilismers, but also to all our friends across the NationStates world. If you have questions about this, please visit the Equilism forum or contact our Ambassador in your region. Military Affairs E-Army soldiers are still out there, defending and liberating regions across the NationStates world. Meanwhile, Military Chancellor The Merlion has been doing some Spring Cleaning in the E-Army. The College of Equilism - The Confederacy of Free Regions (COFR) has put forth an alliance proposal, which was discussed in the College. However, Equilism wants to exchange Embassies only at this moment. - Equilism will not become a member-region of the Founderless Regions Alliance at this moment. - The ADN discussion still continues. Voting on a possible withdraw from the alliance was halted due to elections and a vote on Westwind's proposal in the ADN. Neo-Conservatism has been nominated for the Director's post of the ADN. Good luck Neo! - Discussions are still taking place about the vote on the Treaty with The Pacific. There was a disagreement about the actual result of the votes. - The College Laws and Procedures are now being voted on. - A majority of College-members want the Governor General to organise the Lord Chancellor elections. - A discussion is taking place about the Equilism’s branch of the Ordo Herectus. After the reunification, it was turned into an RP. However, The Pacific has strongly protested the use of the Ordo in this thread. Using the Ordo as a spam-police is not acceptable for The Pacific. UN-voting “Repeal The Right to Form Unions” was voted 1-5-1 against. Bar & Games The Most Hated Song, the most hated songs, bizarre holidays in March and postcounts are being talked about in The Bar. Also, it seems that a lot of our younger citizens are turning 18 this, starting with Govvistan. Happy birthday Govvistan! The usual games are still popular. The chances of fulfilling Restored Othalla’s challenge of 1000 posts in two months look pretty good. The challenge ends on the 11th of March and so far, there have been 945 posts. Knowing Equilism, we can surely make it in time! The Equilism Winter Olympics are still being hosted/played. Details will follow after the games have finished, so watch our updates! Role Playing & Main Street The Dutch garbage-can Kliko has been found rolling around the battle-zone that is “Who will post last?” We welcome the latest business to Main Street: The Steaming Cauldron run by Magical Representation! Meanwhile, the first “client” of the Privatised Prison System has broken-out of prison! Rumours are that Tycholand had some assistance escaping from the facility. Meanwhile, many people are looking for him, but he has hired several look-alikes. Tycholand is believed to be hiding somewhere in Main Street. ![]() Besides the hunt for Tycholand, Equilism-residents enjoy the activities in Merl’s Live Band Pub and tea-drinking in Naga’s Tea House. |

Equilism Update March 16, 2007 Monarch: Westwind Lord Chancellor: Restored Othalla Population: 139 Regional Power: Very High Forum Link: http://www.equilism.org/forum Equilism Wiki: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Category:Equilism Foreign Affairs Diplomatic relations have been opened with the Confederacy of Free Regions (COFR) and reopened with The North Pacific. Military Affairs The men and women serving in the E-Army have been spotted in Wild Blue Yonder, Freedom and dresses-up as cowboys lassoing cows in Texas Rangers. The College of Equilism The following points are on the College’s agenda: - College Laws and Procedures has been approved by an unanimous vote of 12-0-0. The Monarch has forwarded the law to the Judiciary for review. - The discussion about Equilism’s branch of the Ordo Herectus is till taking place, but a decision is expected soon. - The Monarch has asked the Judiciary to review the votes cast for the treaty with The Pacific vote, as there was some disagreement about the outcome. UN-voting The resolution “Climate Refugee Commission” was voted 4-0 for. The Ordo Herectus issue has already lead to a heated discussion in the public thread about this issue. There was even an Admin-warning! The discussion can be found here. Bar & Games Equilism University, the default skin poll, hateable sounds, instruments and RL cruelties are hot in The Bar. Meanwhile, Equilismers gathered to wish our Chaucerin a very happy birthday – happy birthday Chaucerin! And we’ve done it! With the deadline looming, the 1000-post-mark was reached in the “1000 posts in 2 months” regional challenge, proving Equilism’s talent for spamming. Meanwhile, the same games are proving popular, with “The Previous Poster” evolving into a discussion about hairstyles and haircuts. Role Playing & Main Street The Role-Playing threads “who will post last?” and “attack the previous poster” are still the main battle-scenes in the region. In Main Street News, the manhunt for Tycholand has come to an apparent stop, after many look-alikes were spotted in Main Street. The Platinum Dragon Hotel is now offering its customers the ability to pay for their accommodation through the Store and a suggestion has been made about introducing E-Miles, Equilism’s version of Air Miles. Equilism University ![]() After a lot of work and testing, Equilism now has a proper University! Students taking the courses don’t have to visit the University-forum with its sub-forums, but can now visit the proper University. Already existing courses have been added and more courses are on the drawing-boards, including an Equilism History course, a course in Equilism Law and a Paintshop Course. Announcement The University Equilism News Agency (ENA) Efforts are underway to revive the ENA. |

Equilism Update March 23, 2007 Monarch: Westwind Lord Chancellor: Restored Othalla Population: 136 Regional Power: Very High Forum Link: http://www.equilism.org/forum Equilism Wiki: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Category:Equilism Foreign Affairs Embassies from Canada, The Proletariat Coalition, Europa and Wysteria have been closed. Military Affairs E-Army soldiers have been spotted in Osgiliath Ruins. The College of Equilism The following topics are being discussed in the College: - A vote on the “Multiple Citizenship Act” - Canada6’s application for dual citizenship - A discussion about The Pacific - “College Laws and Procedure” has been forwarded to the Judiciary for a review. - A discussion about Equilism’s future in the ADN. - A discussion about a Military Liaison Pact with the Founderless Regions Alliance (FRA). - The Treaty with the Pacific has been voted on. The outcome was 5 for, 9 against. A 2/3rd majority was required for it to pass. - The College voted unanimously against the preservation of the Ordo Herectus in Equilism (a total of 14 votes), which means that the Ordo’s branch in Equilism is closed. Westwind has granted his approval:
Public Courtyard Notherfork the Scribe has returned from a long pilgrimage through the Pacific, carrying with him the message of ADMIN. He preached to an audience of Equilismers quite passionately about what he learned and his interpretation of the Pacific Orthodoxy doctrine. This was met with some disagreement as the Black Cardinal of the Ordo Hereticus, Agamemnon Mustang, challenged some of the Scribe's interpretations. Read more here Other topics being discussed concern the Ordo Herecticus and Canada6’s Dual Citizenship. Bar & Games Most Hated Song, College Essays, ages, greetings, Felasia’s 1000th post, instruments, and poems by the Scribe Notherfork are hot topics over at The Bar. We also wish Gateborg a happy birthday! In the Games & Fun forum, Equilismers are spamming, just as usual. Meanwhile, the “1000 posts in 2 months”-challenge has a successor: post 30 thirty things a day! Role Playing & Main Street The usual battles are still raging in “who will post last?” and in “attack the previous poster”. Two new RP’s have started: - In “Subterfuge”, a Tycholandian commercial airliner was shot-down by a Seriphitican military aircraft. - In an “Unidentified Object”, an unidentified object (yes, what else were you thinking? :P) crashed into international waters between Tycholand and Niels. Who will reach it first and discover what it is? In Main Street, Scandinavian Duchies’ “The Shady Side” has been closed. Open Debate Board Equilismers are having fun taking a political compass quiz; proving that there is no consistency in Equilismers' political views. Some come out to be hard left liberals, while others are quite the opposite. Conservatives, communists, libertarians, socialists, centrists, we've got them all here in Equilism. Read more here The Libertarianism debate is still popular, started all the way back on November 10th and still an active source of arguing and entertainment. Recently some dispute over the meaning of "freedom" and "equality" has arose there. Read more here |

Equilism’s Embassy in Nasicournia has also been closed. Nasicournia and Equilism have been through a lot together, and the Chancellory of Foreign Affairs wishes this didn’t have to happen. Good luck Nasicournia! For news on Equilism’s declaration regarding The Pacific/NPO, see the section “The College of Equilism” further in the update. Military Affairs E-Army soldiers have been spotted in Michigan and 0ceania. The College of Equilism The following agenda-points are on the College’s table: - A vote on a Military Liaison Pact between Equilism and the Founderless Regions Alliance. - The vote on the Dual Citizenship Act has been cancelled when it appeared that something in the proposed law needed fixing. After the College voted against a Mutual Defence Pact with the Pacific, the following Declaration has been drafted and released:
Read more here The Lord Chancellor has issued a Legislative Order, granting Canada6 dual-citizenship.
The Legislative Order has been approved by the Monarch (Westwind) and the Lord High Advocate (Equilism’s title for the Chief Justice, Chaucerin) and Canada6 has taken the oath. Canada6’s Dual Citizenship application Link to Legislative Order UN-resolution voting Due to the Delegate having internet problems, there have been no votes for the UN-resolutions. Bar & Games Daylight Savings Time, Westwind’s looking for a job, Harry Potter number 7, what you’re listening to, greetings, postcounts and a contracting job from the Chancellery of Defence are hot topics in our Bar. The Gay Cafay has returned to activity. In the Games & Fun department, the usual games are still popular. Spamming is also popular, but that’s very old news.;) Restored Othalla’s The New Challenge has not started yet. The challenge is to post 30 things a day. For some people on the Equilism-forum, that should be easy! ![]() Role Playing & Main Street Attacks and discussion continue in “Attack the Previous Poster” and “Who will post last?” In RP’s, Tycholand commando’s have entered an OmniCorp (a company in Seriphyn) Paramilitary Base in an effort to find evidence about OmniCorp’s involvement in the shooting-down of a Tycholand commercial airliner. This can be followed in Subterfuge In An Unidentified Object, Tycholand and Niels are trying to see what lies at the bottom of the sea in the international waters between their countries. In Main Street, Tycholand has been spotted and the manhunt continues to put him back in the Privatised Prison Service. Fast-food and take-away restaurant BackDomalds has been opened by The Empire of Byzantica. A conflict in the queue has already lead to the drawing of several guns, but the situation was resolved peacefully. ![]() Open Debate Board Another week goes by, and even more Equilismers take the Political Compass quiz. However, on the same thread there has begun a small conversation about the free market. Read more here. It appears competitors are gearing up in the God doesn't work thread for another round of heated debate some time in April. Stay tuned for developments! Read more here.

Equilism Update April 10, 2007 Monarch: Westwind Lord Chancellor: Restored Othalla Population: 223 Regional Power: Very High Forum Link: http://www.equilism.org/forum Equilism Wiki: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Category:Equilism Foreign Affairs Chancellor Tycholand took the week off, leaving his Deputy, Notherfork, in charge. But due to unforeseeable circumstances Notherfork was unable to preform his duties. This has lead to the delay in the release of the weekly update, and the Chancellery apologizes. Discussion within the halls of the Chancellery have been going on concerning the Small & Intermediate Regions and Equilism Network (SIREN) proposal. This would improve and strengthen relations between the Realm and newly created and small regions. Read more here Military Affairs E-Army soldiers have been spotted in Willoughby, Asia, Zealand, and Ginger Paradise. The College of Equilism The College has quieted down over the last week, but new issues are appearing on the horizon. The College unanimously approved a Military Liaison Pact with the Founderless Regions Alliance, and was signed by the Monarch Westwind on April 3rd, 2007. An Equilism liaison has not yet been appointed. A notice of intended withdrawal from the ADN has been approved by the College and the Monarch. The withdrawal will only take place if Equilism does not see satisfactory reforms to the ADN begin. Meanwhile, collegians have been discussing other issues concerning the ADN. UN-Resolution Voting Lord Chancellor Restored Othalla has temporarily taken UN duties, thus he brought the latest resolution (the repeal of "Sexual Freedom") before the UN voters. The proposal currently stands at 3-0 in favor of it. Bar & Games Equilismers were heard drunkenly celebrating Astarial's birthday this last week. She's now 18, and thus not jailbait! The Gay Cafe has been somewhat popular of late, along with discussions on random thoughts, hated songs, daily greetings, the ages of Equilismers, and other such ramblings. For more of the madness drop by the Bar forum! Fun and games, spamming and more spamming, it's all entertaining until someone loses an eye. This week we've seen the return of the Ask the Guru thread, with Restored Othalla acting Guru. And of course the use spam games and quizzes continue to see vast popularity. Role Playing & Main Street What is Ambassador Island's function? That is the question. Curious minds want to know. Other popular RPs are still active, including the last one wins, Be Nice to the Previous Poster, and Attack the Previous Poster. Main Street is seeing some life in the Privatised Prison Service and Cthulhu's Hospital. But buyer beware, Main Street is a good place to lose a fortune. Open Debate Board This week has been a busy one on the ODB. The U.S. Missile Defense System, Abortion, Homosexuality, and religion are the hot topics, sparking much debate and controversy. But on a lighter note, Equilismers are still having clean fun with the Political Compass. |

Equilism Update April 20, 2007 Monarch: Westwind Lord Chancellor: Restored Othalla Population: 215 Regional Power: Very High Forum Link: http://www.equilism.org/forum Equilism Wiki: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Category:Equilism Foreign Affairs Discussion concerning the Small & Intermediate Regions and Equilism Network (SIREN) proposal has left the Foreign Affairs Chancellery and been moved to the College for consideration. However, some discussion continues within the Chancellery. Read more: http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=5092 Military Affairs E-Army soldiers have been spotted in Paradise, DoomsVille, and Lazarus. The College of Equilism On April 1st the College approved the intention of withdrawal from the ADN, which was later signed by the Monarch on April 3rd. Now, after the two week waiting period has been elapsed, Equilism has now officially left the ADN. The SIREN proposal has been directed to the College for consideration, and a general consensus has been reached that a collegiate committee should be assembled to study SIREN, MLP, and similar means of foreign and military relations with other regions. Currently the proposed committee has been forwarded to the Lord Chancellor, and the College awaits his approval. The Judicial review of the College Laws and Procedures is under discussion. The main concern shown by the Judiciary has been that the document does not include public votes, but instead restricts all votes to the College. Currently no amendments to the document have been put forward for legislation. The new Multiple Citizenship Act has been voted on and approved by the College. The document was signed by the Monarch on April 20th. The new law was drafted and approved to replace an earlier, out-of-date document governing citizenship between Equilism and other regions. UN-Resolution Voting Equilism voted in favor of the "Cultural Heritage in War" resolution, the votes standing at 5-0-0. Bar & Games As usual Equilismers can be heard chatting it up in the bar. The region's favorite conversation piece has seemed to remain random thoughts. This once and for all proves Equilismers have no thought process...

Equilism Update April 28, 2007 Monarch: Westwind Lord Chancellor: Restored Othalla Population: 209 Regional Power: Very High Forum Link: http://www.equilism.org/forum Equilism Wiki: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Category:Equilism Foreign Affairs A list of possible regions to open diplomatic relations with has been forwarded to the Chancellory by Lord High Prosecutor, Moo-cows with guns. Currently the Chancellor and Deputy are investigating further into these regions, weighing in on if an embassy exchange would be beneficial. The list had nine regions in all. Currently the Region of Gay is being considered for an embassy exchange. The proposal has been met with no opposition. Military Affairs E-Army soldiers have been spotted in Gaelionica and Brigelle, and were victorious in both battles. Keep up the good work, E-Army! The College of Equilism Currently a Collegiate Committee to explore possible programs for better relations with small regions has begun taking volunteers. However, only two have stepped forward: Deputy Chancellor of Foreign Affairs Notherfork and Collegian Flexion, who originally proposed the SIREN project that got this all in motion. The Monarch, Westwind, has offered his assistance to the committee as an adviser. The Small & Intermediate Regions and Equilism Network (SIREN) and the Military Liaison Program (MLP) are the chief subjects on the collegiate exploratory committee's agenda. They'll also be generating new ideas, as well as possibly proposing legislation. Deputy Chancellor of Foreign Affairs and Collegian, Notherfork, has drafted a amended version of the "Laws & Procedures of the College of Equilism: Duties, Rights & Votes" after a Judicial review found the document did not allow for public votes. His original draft had some errors and had to be modified, and now it stands before the College for further review. A proposed War Powers Act has been shared with the College. It was brought up during the discussion on the Laws & Procedures of the College of Equilism by the Monarch after Tse Moana (Chancellor of Intelligence, Advocate General, and Heir to the Throne of Equilism) put forward concerns over the War clause in the procedures. An amended version of the "Laws & Procedures of the College of Equilism: Committees" has been drafted. This was done after some concerns were expressed that the document was too narrow in its scope, originally only having committees as tools of internal investigations into wrong doing. The new version would give committees further range, including the exploration of possible legislation and actions, as well as to analyze particular subjects, topics, etc for Collegiate review. The idea for a possible law creating regional holidays has been brought up before the College. Currently it is under discussion, but all seem in favor of such a bill. Currently only three holidays have been suggested: Reunification Day (January 4th), Founding Day (January 13th), and Schism Day (October 20th). Activities have also been suggested for each of these days, such as a single Founding and Rebirth Festival, running from January 3rd through January 13th, and a solemn discussion and reflection on the past every October 20th. This proposed holidays bill was accompanied by a suggestion for possible honorary titles of nobility to former members. Westwind, the Monarch, said that it would be acceptable if the College petitioned him to give out such titles to former and current members who've achieved much and served the region well. No petitions have been brought forward yet. Events The '07 Edition of the Equilism World Cup is finally here!

A request for an Embassy Exchange, made by Liberty Alliance, is being considered by the FA Chancellory. Also, one of the regions which was on the list provided by Moo-Cows with Guns (see last week’s update) is now also under review. Military Affairs The men, women and spammers of the E-Army have been spotted in Lazarus. They’ve also been spotted in San Marino; however, the Chancellory of the Military could not confirm if the soldiers were defending or watching Formula-1. The College of Equilism - A Committee has been formed (which evolved from the College’s discussion to cooperate in Defender-work with smaller regions, the SIREN-project) to evaluate the Military Liaison Program (MLP), create new and/or adapted/combined ideas for military cooperation with other ideas and possible creation or amending of legislation concerning these areas. The Committee has officially been installed by Lord Chancellor Restored Othalla and will start after the elections. - Notherfork has made a “Standard Bill Template”. The aim is to ensure that each piece of legislation has a standard lay-out. - The debates about amending the Committee section of the College’s “Law and Procedures” is being wrapped-up and a vote is expected to be held soon. - Collegiates are motioning for a vote about the adapted College Laws & Procedures (this is separate from the point mentioned above). - Collegiates are discussing about regional Holidays Titles. Elections The first term for the first government (excluding the Provisional government) of the Realm of Equilism is almost over. On April 30th, Governor General Neo-Conservatism, announced the following:

Yes dear readers, spamming in Equilism can be a real battlefield – a fun battlefield though. For the rest, discussions about greetings, what you’re listening to, activity in the region “The Realm of Equilism” and Naivetry’s birthday are taking place.

Equilism Update May 13, 2007 Monarch: Westwind Lord Chancellor: Restored Othalla Population: 187 Regional Power: Very High Forum Link: http://www.equilism.org/forum Equilism Wiki: http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Category:Equilism Foreign Affairs Currently the regions of Liberty Alliance, Uroca, and the Alliance of Socialist States are being considered for further diplomatic relations. Military Affairs All has been quiet on the E-Army front as elections go on. Other than finishing up a few open missions, the E-Army has been mainly confined to the barracks. The College of Equilism As elections are underway, activity in the College has slowed. Currently a discussion about Equilism expanding into Cybernations is underway. This was opened as concerns grew over NationStates' low activity levels. Currently no decision has been reached, but it has been agreed that Equilism needs to start reaching out to other games. SIREN is still under discussion, as possible candidates for involvement in the program are considered. This will be further developed when the Collegiate Committee setup to investigate the SIREN project gets started during the next term. All other legislation has been put on hold, though this will end as the next term begins. Elections In a odd turn of events, the elections ended in a draw! In addressing the region, Nagabeth, Chancellor of Internal Affairs, released the following summary of the voting...
