You and Stormwrath are both approved. Just had to wait a couple days to make sure nobody raised an objection... applications are pretty informal here, but everyone's given a chance to weigh in first and the lack of posting in relation to your app was itself a form of weighing in as it means no one's got a problem with you.
BTW, Cannidarsa just ran an interesting idea by me in our ongoing TG discussion... he pointed out that we've made quite a few enemies in the past, and will likely make more enemies in the future, and should probably have a contingency plan in place in case someone tries to retaliate against us. So I want you all to feel free to make suggestions, either for your own tech level or on a more general scale, about what kinds of defensive preparations we should make as a group.
For FanT, I would suggest very strong ties to the land... instead of just homefield advantage, make the homefield an actual RP character with the ability to deal massive damage to an invading force. Olweans accomplish this quite easily through green magic. Holding military forces in reserve to defend the homeland is also an obvious one that works in every tech level.

Um... is this Ted Nugent different from other Ted Nujent's, or is this the guy who called Hillary Clinton a "damn bitch"? Just curious, since your President-elect is very extremist RL-wise...

Though I'm glad that your Ted Nugent is slightly better.

Not really. The people who tried to put it into practice in some countries were evil. Socialism is an excellent middleground ideology, and many nations have succeeded using democratic socialism as a model of government. That aside, I can say the same thing about capitalism, and it wouldn't get us anywhere.

Come to think of it, you mentioned II... do we have anyone actively monitoring that forum for threads we need to be aware of at the moment? Because as I understand it -- although I know your schedule won't allow that anymore, and mine's kind of cattywampus at the moment too -- that used to be your role within this group, Olwe... to watchdog II and make sure the rest of the Bloc knew who to invade next. So if anyone wants to volunteer to take over that duty, it'd really help our group out in the quest to get more active again.
Also -- Nyte, I like that onion thing, I'm gonna implement one of my own if you don't mind, but I think Olwe was talking about more group tactics than individual-nation ones... like combining our forces into a single, I don't know, Pentagram Corps. If you're not crazy about the name that's fine, but I think with a little cooperation we could implement something like that on multiple tech levels simultaneously. And Zuni's tech level makes Elayne Kramer look inflexible, so I could involve myself on every tech level.

Um... no. This alliance exists to utterly crush slavery, repression of LGBTs and persecution of nonhumans, among other things... being anti-religion or pro-occult aren't prerequisites for joining, and aren't really what we're about either.

The URSS agrees with the agenda of the alliance.

You can stay on with observer status, but in order to be a full member you kind of have to participate.
Is Arendelle in any danger at the moment? Because that's certainly the sort of nation Olwe would defend. Rumpelstiltskin is certainly no friend of ours either.
