PASSED: Liberate the Security Council !!

[Unibot]

As far as I know, The Security Council will have a successful furture, so I don't see why it's illegal.

-- YES!! Brilliant.

[Unibot]

Drop it. It's not necessary. The "time-honoured tradition" bullshit is plainly false as anyone knows, and it would have been deleted had it been submitted as a repeal of a GA resolution.

I.. I.. just figured it was a good opportunity to shed some light on it, considering we don't have a bookkeeping category.

But.. er, I'll flip a coin three times .. and if its straight heads or tails I'll keep it.

Heads.. Heads..WTF..Heads.. (I actually did it)

Well that did me no good -- I know Kenny is right. Who here agrees with Kenny?

Is it needed? No. I've never heard of a single resolution which is needed (other than a hand full of repeals).

Is it funny? Yes.

But I'm a little confused as to what Kenny is talking about "time honored tradition" that repeal has nothing to do with spliting GA and SC...

[Mad Sheep Railgun]

Who here agrees with Kenny?

I do. The "time-honoured tradition" actually is bullshit, even though we now have a resolution saying such a thing exists.

I wasn't talking about the resolution; I was talking about the new language Uni inserted to address the "time honoured tradition" thing. He's stricken it out, so I assume that means he thought better of it.

[Topid]

Oh lol, all I read was the read part and assumed everything else was the same.

I was confused, my bad!

[Gobbannium]

True, but being bullshit has never been illegal (he says bitterly).

Batshit, now that's something else entirely.

[Topid]

So we made Uni delegate of The Security Council and he has gained to influence rank of Dominator in one update!

[Unibotian WASC Mission]

“Liberate the Security Council” is now in the List -- please endorse if you agree with the movement, or poke and prod a delegate who you know would too.

[Krioval]

“Liberate the Security Council” is now in the Queue -- please endorse if you agree with the movement, or poke and prod a delegate who you know would too.

You mean "on the list". "In the queue" comes after getting the thing to quorum. Good luck. [/nitpick]

[Unibotian WASC Mission]

I see, I've always called the queue of proposals moving to the first page as they tick down to 3 days a queue, oops.

I see, thank you ambassador. I appreciate the wellwishing.

[Omigodtheykilledkenny]

I nearly died when I saw this had already made quorum! Nice work, Uni.

(Hmm... A delegate trying to revoke his own password... do you worry [violet] will go back on her promise if this fails? )

Nah. I'm not worried.

My thought is, if this passes, its a good way to transition the World Assembly into a new age, in character, with a little bit of fun and character. And this was an awesome way to test the crowd's opinion on new technical ideas.

If it fails, err.. this was a terrible way to test any new technical ideas' popularity.

[Omigodtheykilledkenny]

Even so, if you need help campaigning for this once it reaches vote, give me a ring.

[Unibot]

Thanks, but I'd be happy with just another endorsement to cushion the proposal with. At the moment its hardly safe (54 endorsements/54 endorsements needed).

Know a delegate?

[Todd McCloud]

I love this resolution, to be honest. Keep up the good work.

[Klaus Devestatorie]

116 approvals.

Dare I ask...

WHY?

[Spartan Philidelphia]

116 approvals.

Dare I ask...

WHY?

Dare I answer your question with another?

WHY NOT?

[Saurea]

Really? No one else is going to say it?

*sighs* Alright.

Isn't this proposal illegal somehow because it's obviously aimed at the Security Council, and I mean the real Security Council, as in the part of the bloody gods-damn forums?! I'm coming late to the party here, I'm sure, but was this "Security Council" region created just so this proposal could have a target to base it on?

[Unibot]

but was this "Security Council" region created just so this proposal could have a target to base it on?

No.

Have a good day.

[Saurea]

It wasn't? Well, good to know.

Still, I understand the symbolism at work here and, more likely than not because people aren't going to read the proposal that thoroughly it'll have a good chance to pass, but still, I stand by my assessment that the proposal is illegal. My reasoning behind that is that the wording of the proposal seems to be aimed at the Security Council as in the part of the forums/part of the WA while the proposal itself is targeted at a region. Doesn't that alone invalidate the entire thing?

[Topid]

Yup I founded the region when the SC first came out, because I fell in love with the feature from day one.

Only if there were rules against it. Which there aren't.

... you have got to be kidding me.

It's a glaringly obvious enough loophole that by all rights you'd think there would be a rule against this kind of thing, especially because if you stop and think about it for even a moment that particular loophole can be abused in a number of ways.
