Admittedly while the draft feels like it has much more character I continue to be confused by the actual impact of Baggie on the sports environment beyond villainous antics.
Stay safe, be kind, and have a great day! :)

Alert: It turns out this was too long for the SC, and so it has been shortened. I removed the issue about children in the wild, and cut out some superfluity with wording.

I’m not sure about this draft. Yes, it’s detailed and it’s well and amusingly written. To me it’s missing a certain je ne sais quoi that would make me believe Baggie is a real villain deserving of a Condemnation.

I can’t be more precise than that - it’s just the way I’m reacting to the proposal.

What you're thinking isn't unprecedented, Westinor is thinking along the same lines. I'm wondering about how I could currently give it something that would give it that X-Factor. I might be able to cook something up. No promises. I do hope you will vote for despite this.

I was about to say that, personally, I'd approve of this even without making Baggieland out to be a menacing villain (they'd be among the most polite ones, imo)...
but I must say, I approve of the skullduggery. :)

Full support. (Not that I even remotely matter, but I can't imagine Forest's majority voting against this either.)

I am pleased to give this Resolution my support. I believe the Nominee's actions are villainous enough to merit Condemnation.

Unfortunately it didn’t. As I said it’s a well written and presented proposal - it just hasn’t convinced me that the nominee is worthy of a Condemnation. Voted against.

Nope; it's one of the few instances of a region-wide against where I haven't the foggiest. Either way, I'm glad this one passed successfully. Congratulations to you all :)
