[ACCEPTED] The Ebbing Tide of Ebony Pride

[Jutsa]

Aaaah, I've been waiting so long to post this because it's one of my favorite drafts,
and now I'm dreading it because I know I'll probably have to edit it a lot, given my last two drafts.

Well, I might as well start at some point, so here we go. I hope you enjoy.

Oh, and heads up - I think that Forest might take particular interest in this one.

Title: The Ebbing Tide of Ebony Pride
The Issue: @@NAME@@ recieves a significant portion of its logs, planks, wood chips, and tooth picks from the backwoods of Brancaland. Some environmentalists, however, have come out of the woodworks with evidence that Brancaland has to cut enormous swathes of their forested territory in order to meet their demands.
Validity: must allow imports

Option 1: "It's clear cut that Brancaland hasn't been taking care of their environment," accuses environmental activist and self-declared expert @@RANDOMNAME@@, using a Brancaland-imported toothpick. "That's a travesty in my neck of the woods. To ensure that forests are taken care of, we need to stop being bumps on a log and lower our demand for wood by placing high tariffs on the entry of foreign timber and producing all of our wood supply ourselves - in highly regulated tree farms."
[effect] forests are protected through sprouting tree plantations for firewood

Option 2: "Eh, while it's true that we do have a large wood chippin' industry, it's no more than our environment can handle," assures @@RANDOMNAME@@, top-of-the-tree exporter of the famous Brancalandian Pine. "In fact, stopping our trade would be like nailing jelly to a tree. They don't sometimes call us Branchaland for nothin'. Maybe you could help us out by giving your furnishing industry subsidies in exchange for having them leaf through our selections of fine timber, eh?"
[effect] environmental services don't seem to care much about the ecology of other nations

Option 3: "I think we've been barking up the wrong tree with Brancha- I mean, Brancaland, over here," opines your Minister of Agriculture, up a gum tree and being a real needle about it. "Lets not take any wooden nickels, and put the wood in the hole on wood imports. We'll be shaking the pagoda tree once we're done sitting around like a sapling. They set a high branch with their mighty strongwood, but we've got plenty of wood, and even if it isn't as big and hard, it still gets the job done. It'll be as easy as falling off a log, knock on wood."
[effect] houses have become far weaker and more expensive to build

[Buckerino]

Your special mention of toothpicks intrigues me, since the 4th option doesn't tackle that. How about plastic manufacturing/oil production?

[Jutsa]

Ah, good points. Plastic and could have their own issues, tbh, but I wanted to make one specifically about wood.

Also, adding the toothpicks to option 4*. :3

Edit: It'd be kinda clumsy trying to add that in. Besides, floss exists, I guess.

What I meant was actually a ramp in production of oil to produce plastic toothpicks

[Jutsa]

Ah... you have a point there.

Might be good to consider that as a possible effect line.

[Kaldrassil]

"steal manufacturing"

thanks

Those are two words I can never seem to get right.

You know what else if made of trees?

[Jutsa]

yes, those are indeed made from trees, my friend.

[Candlewhisper Archive]

I feel like the issue topic demands a "got wood" joke in there somewhere.

[Jutsa]

Updated it, although a few points I wanted to go into further discussion before jumping into the bush:

(I don't see how this is an exchange between @@RANDOMNAME@@ & @@LEADER@@, seems more like @@RANDOMNAME@@ suggesting some ideas)

I wanted to imply that you, @@LEADER@@, would subsidize those industries, but in exchange, those industries must use some of Brancaland's products.
That being said, I do agree that it needs to be more of a "@@LEADER@@ pines over our fine timbre" instead, so I changed that.

I also wanted to mention that this option's really long - like, it was long before, and that was after trying to cut things out.

(what is this difficult situation he's in?)

I know that's the normal meaning, and it might be the only one, but I saw this on google's first result for "up a gum tree":

The most commonly used is 'in great difficulties'. Other meanings are 'in a state of contentment' or 'with great speed'.

I could possibly move it somewhere else so the speaker's saying what a problem you're facing, but... idk; I want your input, first.

(the knock on wood part does not seem to make much sense, may need to add some more words)!"

"knock on wood" is, according to google, "said in order to prevent a confident statement from bringing bad luck." I'm definitely keeping it as-is unless I'm using it wrong. :3

Oh, a final note on the edits: I managed to fit the word "sprout" in the first effect line.

Also, Idk how I feel about making "Got Wood?" the title; we already have a "Got Democracy?" and I guess you could say I never really got the joke.
That being said, if you strongly prefer it over the current title, or if you've got any other suggestions, I'd be delighted to take it.
... Thinking about it, "Up a Gum Tree" could be a pretty effective title, as well. >:3

[Fauxia]

Probably for validity, must allow imports, if that is flagged

[Jutsa]

Added regardless, though I'll remove it if it's not tracked.

[Jutsa]

Quick adjustment: Moved "shake the pagoda tree" to option 3. Now both the phrase and option 2 are shorter.

Edit: Also changed "snarks" to "opines" in option 4.

[Shwe Tu Colony]

Okay I found a list that claims to house every word in the English language (presumably not modern-day slang), so I'll hastily pine through it & list out some of the words that have parts of a tree or a tree's name in them below, but mostly the ones that could be reasonably used here. Also, there's leaf through, in case a leaf idiom could work as well.

alpine
epinephrine (Adrenaline)
happiness
rapine
repine
vulpine
entree

[Jutsa]

Since I used "pine" twice, plus "opine", I replaced the second option's pine with "leafing through". Thanks.

By the way, wood(ahaha.wav) "place high tariffs on foreign timber entree" be viable, or does that not actually make sense?

"Tariffs on the entrée of foreign timber" makes more sense.

Title: Ebb Tide Of Ebony Pride

Ugh, my sense of poetic meter is offended!

How about "The Ebbing Tide of Ebony Pride"?

The Issue: Due to @@NAME@@'s

Avoid @@NAME@@'s, as it won't work for pluralised nation names, like The Netherlands.

lack of an established wood-chipping industry, most logs, planks, wood chips, and tooth picks all have significant imports from the backwoods of Brancaland.

Bit clumsy. Also, why limit this to nation's without a timber industry?

A little rephrasing, and you can have any nation be importing Brancalandian wood.

Also, as the issue looks to be about Brazilwood, I'm surprised by the choice of Brancaland. In the absence of a Brazilian analogue, you could certainly create one.

Some environmentalists, however, have noted that Brancaland has to cut enormous swathes of their forested territory in order to supply @@NAME@@ with all of the wood @@DEMONYMPLURAL@@ uses, and - after pining for evidence for what seems like eons - are finally coming out of the woodwork with their findings.

I understood the urge to make wood puns, but I think wind it back a bit to make the opening more concise.

Validity: Low or no timber wood chipping industry, mid to high environmental spending, must allow imports

I'd basically leave it as "must allow imports", or in NS-terms, that'd be "not autarky".

Option 1: "It's clear cut that Brancaland hasn't been taking care of their environment," accuses environmental activist and self-declared expert @@RANDOMNAME@@, using a Brancaland-imported toothpick to clean @@HIS@@ teeth. "That's a travesty in my neck of the woods. To ensure that forests are taken care of, we need to stop being bumps on a log and lower our demand for wood. The best ways to do this are to place high tariffs on the entree

entry

of foreign timber and produce all of our wood supply ourselves - in highly regulated tree farms."

Again, needs a small trim. Nothing drastic, just a little cutting back.

[effect] forests are protected through tearing down forests to sprout tree plantations for firewood

Not seeing why this effect line comes from this option. Also, it's in the wrong "direction". Generally if someone picks an option, you create an effect line that is in the same direction but with a twist. What you have here is an environmentalist option with an anti-environmentalist tagline.

Option 2: "Eh, that's a bit of an exaggeration, don't you think?" politely asks @@RANDOMNAME@@, top-of-the-tree exporter of the famous Brancalandian laxwood.

The opening here is the sort of thing we'd cut, moving the start of information to the front of the option.

"While it's true that we do have a large wood chippin' industry, it's no more than our environment can handle. In fact, stopping our trade would be like nailing jelly to a tree. They don't sometimes call us Branchaland for nothin'.

Ok, I stand corrected. It HAS to be Brancaland, just for that awesome pun.

Indeed, stopping our trade would be a far mightier fall than if you did that to those other countries like Maxtopia or Moltovea. Maybe you could help us out by subsidizing your furnishing industry and leafing through our selections of fine timber, eh?"
[effect] environmental beauty is retained via destroying the environment of foreign nations

Yeah, again not feeling this parses right.

Option 3: "I think Branchaland is onto something, here,"

Humour diminishes with repetition (unless repetition is the source of humour). Never repeat your jokes.

schemes your Minister of Agriculture, up a gum tree and using a pointer made from Branco Cherry. "But I think we're barking up the wrong tree with importing their products. Lets not take any wooden nickels, and instead of encouraging imports, we should just lay off some of this environmental nonsense getting in the way of making our nation shake the pagoda tree and be the best producer of timber in @@REGION@@. Well, okay, Brancaland sets a high branch, but aiming high is still better than sitting around like a sapling."

The wood puns are getting a bit wrought here. Wind it way back, and find a different source of humour for this option onwards.

Doesn't seem very feasible as an option anyway, as trees generally don't always grow too well outside of native climes, and a forest isn't going to appear overnight. I think the speaker should instead be a pro-autarky advocate, suggesting to use a native wood instead. Good opportunity for "They've got wood, and we've got wood, and even if our wood isn't as big and hard it still does the job."

[effect] ecosystems are being destroyed to show @@REGION@@ who's head of the log pile

Eh.

Option 4: "You can't see the forest through the trees, @@LEADER@@; the fact is we should ban wood, altogether!" opines @@RANDOMNAME@@, a tree-hugging self-proclaimed philosopher, sitting in a chair made of Brancaland Pine. "We can get along just fine without it! All buildings can be made of brick, stone, or steel, and firewood is so last century. I mean, besides those things, what else is wood even good for? Just put the wood in the hole on Brancaland - and wood timbering in general. It'd be as easy as falling off a log, knock on wood!"
[effect] coal mining and steel manufacturing are flourishing due to environmental protection laws

Banning wood as an option would require a new policy to be created, with a check across every issue to exclude any issues that mention wood in anyway. Not saying we wouldn't do it, but to persuade us to do it, the issue option would have to be really, really funny or essential to the issue. And then, of course, you'd need to write us a wood-is-banned reversal issue!

[Jutsa]

Ugh, my sense of poetic meter is offended! How about "The Ebbing Tide of Ebony Pride"?

My poetic meter was actually fine, although I do admit this still works better. Updated. :3

Avoid @@NAME@@'s, as it won't work for pluralised nation names, like The Netherlands.

Done :3

Bit clumsy. Also, why limit this to nation's without a timber industry?

Done!

Also, as the issue looks to be about Brazilwood

Funnily enough, this issue was actually inspired off of Trump and Canadian Softwood (hence the "laxwood")

I understood the urge to make wood puns, but I think wind it back a bit to make the opening more concise.

I think I managed to keep the more important of the two puns while making it way more concise.

I'd basically leave it as "must allow imports"

Done

entry

I saw "entrée" and thought he meant entry, but I still misspelled it entree because ent + tree. Changed anyway.

Again, needs a small trim. Nothing drastic, just a little cutting back.

Done that with the description and all the options. Also, nice pun.

Not seeing why this effect line comes from this option. Also, it's in the wrong "direction"

I disagree! The effect line's really just saying what the option is proposing - just very bluntly and without the details, which I think makes it a good, unexpected effect line.
I still shortened it, though - the line was just a tad bit clumsy. As such, it should also look a little less ridiculous.

The opening here is the sort of thing we'd cut, moving the start of information to the front of the option.

Changed. Makes the option shorter, as well. :3

Ok, I stand corrected. It HAS to be Brancaland, just for that awesome pun.

Thanks.

Yeah, again not feeling this parses right.

Cut the first sentence(which I was iffy about anyways) and changed the effect line.
Also changed the second sentence a little bit - hopefully it's a little bit clearer. Rip the Moltovea reference though.

Humour diminishes with repetition (unless repetition is the source of humour). Never repeat your jokes.

I kinda liked how he called them Branchaland right after the guy said that. Changed so that he accidentally says it and then fixes it.

The wood puns are getting a bit wrought here.

Well done - but I disagree. Since I merged options 4 and 3, I felt that it was more important to make the last option have even more. >:3

Doesn't seem very feasible as an option anyway,

Eh.

Banning wood as an option would require a new policy to be created, with a check across every issue to exclude any issues that mention wood in anyway.

So I just decided to merge the puns of 3 and 4, and disregard the old two options. I figure it works better this way anyways, since the drafts's changed to include all nations with imports.

Thank you so very much for your comments, CWA - I'm glad to see I've made something that peaks your interest. >:3
I guess you could say this draft's starting to grow on you.
