[PASSED] Commend Kuriko

[Syberis]

Wow. Looking at the delegates voting for... that's a lot of stamps. Hope the bankroll's deep enough for Kuriko.

I'm not seeing any stamps being hurled about anywhere... am I missing something? O_o

It is a massive shame that the World Assembly Elite will force the passage of this resolution.

Had it not been for this voting maniuplation, "Condemn The World Assembly Elite" would now be on the voting floor. The resolution was a single approval short of quorum shortly before an update yesterday, however, after a slanderous counter-campaign and a series of raids on supporting regional delegates for three consecutive updates by four feeders: The Pacific, The North Pacific, The East Pacific and The West Pacific, and most recently The Black Hawks, it now sits on just 30 approvals.

I can only imagine this was the case for two reasons, considering the amount of effort expended; a) the WA Elite is afraid of the consequences on their continued dominance on the WA if it were to make quorum, yet alone pass, and, b) they wanted to force through this proposal first to commend their corrupt mate.

HEY! You forgot Balder. They participated as well. It's interesting how the "WA Elite" of most of the GCRs and influential regions fight daily about menial issues but come together to bash the fash.

Ah, I guess it's good to know a majority of GCRs are going around knocking off small region's WA Delegates to silence their votes, in order to prove that the WA Elite doesn't exist.

As a new, (been in nationstates for 3 days) and unbiased member of NationStates, Llama, you’re being an asshole and what you’re saying doesn’t make sense. You want to stop the commend Kuriko vote just sk you can propose a commend Kuriko? Because that’s what you’ve said exactly.

Hi.

One of the things we recommend for new arrivals is that they take some time to review the Rules. Independent studies show that four out of five new players who do that have a much more pleasant experience here.

Don't call people names like "asshole." That's the first step on the road to degradation and the exit.

Have a nice day.

Exactly. If the old proposal sucks, he'll stop it so he can propose a better Commend Kuriko. Although the current proposal is already pretty good. If you're a new nation, you probably don't understand this game as well as other players like Shrew.

As Farnhamia said, don't call people assholes.

[Fire Taco]

I realize how mean that sounded. I didn’t mean they were an asshole themselves, just in that attitude. What I meant with the other thing i said was I don’t see the point in rewriting a proposal if it has the same goal. Maybe it can be better, but that does not change the fact that it is after the same thing and doesn’t need to be rewrote.

No-one got more votes than Kuriko won with at any stage in the voting. Yes tactical voting can be annoying, but have you ever heard of the term 'bad loser'?

This. The first 3 rounds Catgirls came in 1st, 2nd, and 2nd & Kuriko came in 3rd, 1st, and 1st. In all rounds, there were fairly significant gaps between 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place candidates by the end of the round. Jocospor wouldn't have won regardless of being in the General Election, the vote movement was purely for vanity reasons of ensuring he wasn't in any prominent place one the whole election was done. Kuriko probably would have similarly won regardless.

The World Assembly wishes to notify you of the passage of a resolution to Commend Kuriko.

Congrats.

And, frankly, ensuring that fascists never win - or even place in - a damn thing isn't a conspiracy.

it's just being a good person.

[Tinhampton]

Commend Kuriko was passed 12,251 votes to 3,086.

[Concrete Slab]

Hooray! Well done my friends.

[ShrewLlamaLand]

Commend Kuriko was passed 12,251 votes to 3,086.

Unfortunate but very expected. Hopefully it can be repealed.

Ah, but they did not ensure a fascist could never win. They ensured Jocospor (and myself) could never win.

Nah let's hope not. It's great seeing it there on the books.

The two of you have been sympathizing with fascists for years, so a victory for you is a victory for your allies, the actual fascists and Nazis.

No real difference between a fascist and a sympathiser, really. One marches by while the other salutes.

Your logic doesn't really check out, but at least you finally concede the CCD is not a fascist region.

See, just because you can put words together doesn't mean they make sense.

You may not have realised this, but dogs aren’t known to be political

Your logic doesn't really check out, but at least you finally concede the CCD is not a fascist region..

What I said was that you and Jocospor personally are not fascists. The fascism level of CCD itself is debatable but you certainly have all sorts of connections to them, whether your own members or your allies. In case you haven't noticed, I haven't been belaboring the idea that you are fascist so much as that you support it completely. If you aren't fascist, you do, however, tolerate it, welcome it, and ally with it.

Frankly you've done way more than tote a love affair with fascism and Nazism, so nobody here is limited to one argument against you.

Also, congratulations, Kuri~ Well deserved.

[Paffnia]

Congrats Kuriko!

[ShrewLlamaLand]

You may congratulate Kuriko now, but again, this will hopefully be repealed very soon.

OOC fascism is not welcomed nor tolerated within the CCD.

Your assertion that just because we hold embassies with a few fascist regions they must exclusively be our closest allies, is also incorrect. I don't see people calling The Embassy a fascist region because they have fascist embassies - look they even have a fascist tag!

The "CCD is fascist" line is by far the favourite around here, so I'm not sure I agree with your last point. Can you give an example?

The Embassy is an embassy collected and a tag collecter, meaning they are unbiased in tags and embassies. At least they aren't a part of an international axis with other facicst nations...

[Lord Dominator]

Repeal in the near future is unlikely.

Congratulations Kuriko, you've earned it

If you cared to look, we also have many embassies with non-fascist regions; many are not even right-leaning regions. Your comment regarding the IRX is poorly informed, and the organisation is largely inactive regardless.

Ok. But you're still in an alliance with other fash regions?
