Gruenberg wrote:I believe this proposal is illegal, as it breaks the Metagaming rules by mentioning the Security Council.
Mentioning the activities of the Security Council is metagaming; more than that, it had always been the intention of the person who actually created the Security Council that "the GA and SC ... operate in different worlds, and members of one ... ignore the other altogether".
If the Security Council is a roleplay organization, then mentioning it is illegal for metagaming, as would be mentioning the International Freedom Coalition or NationStates Olympic Council.
If the Security Council is a gameplay organization, then mentioning it is illegal for metagaming, as would be mentioning the Founderless Regions Alliance or United Defenders League.
If the Security Council is a technical game feature, then mentioning it is illegal for metagaming, as would be mentioning Invading or Daily Issues.
Its mention in WA proposal texts is illegal, and the prohibition on such that has very happily existed for seven years should be reinstated.

Acknowledging the existence of the Security Council,
Believing that nuclear weapons are morally unjustifiable given their indiscriminate nature,
Aware that the Nuclear Arms Possession Act prevents the World Assembly from banning nuclear weapons:
Repeals "Nuclear Arms Possession Act".
