Good Idea!

Thanks for the tip. I was going to nuke a large city. *Phew.*

Can a mod close this forum please? I'll give it up because of the new GA resolution. :)

HOPING that a better written resolution concerning the above can be drafted by an intelligent country;


It's probably too short, but I would like some tips to make it better. :)

Here's a tip, since the first reminder seems to have not sunk in: remove that line. If you submit this proposal with that line in it, your proposal will be removed from queue for flaming.

Ok i would like to first say that yes for the sake of saftey this part in the proposal is a little heavey.But if you look at the exact wording of this clause i do believe you will see that it does not in anyway say that the author of the original resolution was not intelligent,i do believe that its just stating that the re-write of this resolution(if it shall come) should come from a different intellegent(as in experienced,intelligent game wise)should re-write it.with that in mind that part could be put to rest on its many out puts regarding its content.Though if there are SOOOOOO many people who have a problem with it perhaps it would be best to word it a little different.

Draft 2 is slightly* better, however, we still do not see enough "flaws" to warrant repeal. We remain, therefore, completely unsupportive of this proposed repeal.

* emphasis on the slightly. Its is still not something we could support.
Everything you know about me is wrong. Or a rumor. Something like that.

Well, thank you.

If Microcredit and Microgrants is reposted, then this will be torn down.

How would you be able to support it?

We believe we have made it abudently clear that we support the resolution as it stands, and cannot support any repeal attempt of it.

Okay, you guys did make that clear.

Anyone want to give any positive tips other than Grays Harbor and New Rockport? They would be much appreciated.

Given that the International Road Safety Act is to us a fine piece of international legislation, I cannot offer any 'positve' comments on its repeal. Furthurmore, I for the life of me cannot see why so many fellow WA nations want to repeal this resolution.

Perhaps you should take the lack of positive tips as an indication that you will not be able to rally the support needed to actually have this repeal happen?

I believe too many members wil vote for it when it comes time siply cause they think its a good resolution not because of the thing it will repeal whether they are already posting in this forum or not I dont know.But you know thatll be the case you give a man a good peice of litreature and he'll go along with it no matter what.

That was a very in-depth and insightful answer. However, could you please review the reasons this resolution is 'not good'?

Okay, close this thread. It has zero support, and with Microcredit and Microgrants coming soon (there was a typo and they are redoing it) this will be useless. So close it!
