[PASSED] Commend Praeceps

Postby Honeydewistania » Sat Nov 21, 2020 9:35 pm

W/R/T THE CO-AUTHOR

Image
Commend Praeceps
A resolution to recognise outstanding achievement by a nation or region.
Category: Commendation
Nominee: Praeceps
Proposed by: Honeydewistania


The Security Council,

Observing that Praeceps was one of the nations that pioneered the formation of The North Pacific Cards Guild, and was subsequently appointed as its first Guildmaster,

Noting The North Pacific Cards Guild’s role as the first and largest alliance of art collecting nations and further noting the high concentration of influential collecting nations involved within its programs,

Realising that the efforts of Praeceps as Guildmaster are largely responsible for such successes, including:

  • Investing large amounts of time processing artwork requests, accepting new guild members, tallying votes for various events, and outwardly representing the guild on the international stage,
  • Creating the 31 Days of Legendaries Event, resulting in higher guild publicity and membership growth due to the massive distribution of highly valued artwork,
  • Overseeing the production and execution of the The Comprehensive Guide to NationStates Cards, one of the most frequently cited references among collectors; The Monthly Snapshot, a semi-frequent and comprehensive artwork news source; and The Monthly Card Collection Competition, where nations compete to create collections matching a predetermined theme and have the chance to win highly coveted art pieces,
  • Recruitment of nations within the guild to serve in the leadership, many of which who have been previously recognised by the Security Council for their own outstanding achievements to the guild and beyond,
  • Peacekeeping through the humane punishment of nefarious nations who violate the rules of the North Pacific Cards Guild, such as the condemned Noahs Second Country, who was caught in the egregious act of stealing bank funds from a fellow guild member,
Recognising that Praeceps’ efforts in modeling The North Pacific Cards Guild into a professional organisation led to the eventual establishment of the Ministry of Cards within The North Pacific, permanently establishing their legacy within the largest region in the world,

Appreciating the open, community-driven nature of Praeceps, as indicated by their narratives in publications such as The Monthly Snapshot and in interregional festivals, where they encourage other regions to develop similar programs and offer their assistance in doing so, inspiring artwork programs in regions such as 10000 Islands,

Lauding Praeceps for their other contributions to The North Pacific, such as by serving two terms as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, where they resurrected the previously inactive diplomatic corps and remodeled it into an efficient organisation, as well as introducing the practice of releasing regular updates during the term which has since been adopted by other ministries,

Applauding Praeceps for their contributions to The North Pacific's Ministry of Culture through their role as Deputy Minister, where they organise 'Social Deduction Games' - fun games that help to foster regional activity and create bonds between nations,

Acclaiming Praeceps for their legislative contributions in The North Pacific, which include proposing constitutional amendments that clarified procedures regarding security checks and prohibiting members of the Security Council from being members while having a lapsed citizenship, boosting regional security,

Praising Praeceps for their positive international impact via the World Assembly as the author and co-author of several World Assembly proposals and resolutions, such as:
  • The Security Council proposal to remove password protection from The Union of the Axis Powers, a fascist and Nazi-aligned region, which, despite not passing, spurred the regional leadership to destroy and attempt to reestablish the region, getting captured by anti-fascist forces in the process,
  • Security Council Resolution #303 “Commend Destructive Government Economic System”, the first resolution to commend a nation for their participation in the international artwork trade due to their community contributions and artwork preservation efforts,
  • Security Council Resolution #334 “Commend The Templar High Council”, a unique resolution that commended a nation renowned for their in-depth and purposeful storytelling, which is revered around the multiverse,
Determining Praeceps to be an exemplary nation dedicated to assisting both their regional and the international community via their outlined actions,

Hereby Commends Praeceps.

More specific thoughts forthcoming but Praetor is a fantastic nominee. Hard working region builders don’t get enough recognition

Full support. Prae is a deserving nominee based on this. (And I didn't know a lot of this stuff until now!)

Will give it a more thorough shakedown today or tomorrow for grammar nitpicks :p .

Two commendations in a row that I’ve written that you had the idea before. Maybe I’m psychic? :thinking:

Couple of grammatical nitpicks:

1. The comma after "nations" in the Noting clause seems superfluous to me, I don't think it's a compound sentence.

2. In the Realizing clause, you could probably shorten "these efforts include" to "including".

3. In the Applauding clause, "Colation Against the Ideology of Nazism" is most likely misspelled.
Then save me, or the passed day will shine…

Out of curiosity, why are you linking nation names within resolution titles instead of linking the resolutions themselves? Also, not sure how I feel about you putting yourself as a coauthor. :P

1. I'll fix it during submission, just the [resolution] unparsed looks ugly
2. I didn't put myself as coauthor

"Security Council Resolution #3??"

Looks like “Commend The Templar High Council” is going to become Security Council Resolution #334 :D

I wouldn’t mention CAIN explicitly, just the NSIA. It’s not exactly the happiest history.

Well-written. Not necessarily the most qualified candidate but I anticipate voting for.

I removed the whole thing, it wasn't super noteworthy anyway.

I think it's worth mentioning Praecep's stats in TNP; top 20 in the region for Pacifism, Human Development Index, Lifespan, Employment, Health, Public Healthcare, and Public Education, among other thingd.

Not really, no. Their stats aren't super spectacular or anything.

I'll submit on the weekend
