[DEFEATED] Repeal: Liberate Eternal Scholars

[Wallenburg]

The gap is back to <200 votes.

[Kaboomlandia]

The gap is back to <200 votes.

It's going to come down to the minor, I'm sure of it.

[Imperium Anglorum]

We're out of superdelegates

Heheh, Europe still hasn't voted... But that's because Europe doesn't vote in the SC, an extension of our neutral foreign policy stance.

[Singpu]

Just got our regional delegate to cast his 16 votes against.

[The Great Wall of Mexico]

The gap is back to <200 votes.

It's going to come down to the minor, I'm sure of it.

Quick update: The proposal is just teetering at a 20-vote gap Against.

Do I have to remind y'all that Eternal Scholars is essentially a puppet nation of the Invaders?

Umm... it's a) a region and b) not a puppet region yet.

I am voting against this resolution. If we repeal the liberation now, the occupiers will just come back and reoccupy

[The Derpy Democratic Republic Of Herp]

9,379 Against, 9,050 for.

We have done it! WOOOOO!

[Kaboomlandia]

9,379 Against, 9,050 for.

We have done it! WOOOOO!

There's still 13 hours left, I wouldn't celebrate yet

[Catorians]

Catorians is AGAINST this act of ignorance and rudeness. For one to firmly agree to this proposal is absolutely preposterous.

[Catorians]

9,379 Against, 9,050 for.

There's still 13 hours left, I wouldn't celebrate yet

We're still winning boo

[Deimosan]

Up by 400 right now.

[Kaboomlandia]

There's still 13 hours left, I wouldn't celebrate yet

We're still winning boo

Oh, I want this to fail at vote. I'm just saying, I wouldn't bring out the champagne yet.

[The Derpy Democratic Republic Of Herp]

Up by 400 right now.

What a precedent. Now, to avert any liberation repeal, all a raider region has to do is take over the region whilst its being voted upon. If they succeed and the repeal passes, then they get a free region. If they fail and the repeal passes, then so what, it would have been that way anyway. If they succeed and the repeal fails, they get a spotlight as everyone clamours to turn the clock back.

Thank you Captain Obvious.

Update: We're fairly safe into the AGAINST category. Thank you guys for reacting so quickly to TI's move into Eternal Scholars. Had we known that this would happen, we would've taken dozens of precautions before this was put up to vote. Again, let's not pop the champagne as Kaboomlandia said and let's keep working on getting a firm hold on the Against vote.

For those who are still uncomfortable about the fact that both me and Sygian are raiders (and hold the belief that we may have conspired to troll the WA community for the keks), just for the record here, The Invaders operate in a different part of the Raiderverse than HYDRA Command and The Black Hawks. They work with different people, they have a different history, and they run their organization much more differently than we do. We have close to zero ties with them.

That's assuming a raid *can* be scrambled on said target. Generally liberation repeals occur when a region is reasonably secure. If a lib is repealed on a region with a 40e delegate, unless you've got a sleeper ready, that's a lot of e to raise in 4ish days (quorum and vote). A simple solution would be for defenders to just pile up lib targets while in queue as a preventative safety measure.

OOC: Where did that 200 votes come from?

The delegate of Osiris, Neo Kervoskia, switched his/her vote to For.

From what I checked, Kerv was always voting for this resolution.

[Qualvista]

Given the ongoing activities in the region which jeopardize the repeal of the liberation, The Royal World Estate votes against this resolution.

[Maljaratas]

The delegate of Osiris, Neo Kervoskia, switched his/her vote to For.

From what I checked, Kerv was always voting for this resolution.

At the time I posted that, he/she had was at the top of the delegate voting record list voting FOR, so I was assuming there was either a switched vote or voting for the first time on it.

Turns out it was a switcheroo.

[Sygian II]

Once the region is back in native hands, I will resubmit this proposal with some minor modifications. Thank you to everyone that has contributed here in some way.
