For the visually impaired: This image shows a sign of a lighthouse similar to those used on roads and in parks.
This image header states that this is The Officially Unofficial Floor Directory Of The World Assembly Headquarters and it was organized by U.N.I.B.O.T.
Eduard Heir was finishing his work for the day as he nailed a "lighthouse" sign onto one of the entrance lobby's main walls, just above the portrait of Secretary-General Catherine Gratwick which swung precariously as Heir finished hammering the final nail through the drywall. He stood back and marveled at his work with a nod of approval.
Percy, his assistant caught a glimpse of his boss as he scurried through the lobby. The pubescent errands-boy put his hand on Heir's shoulder and addressed him rather sternly for a gawky teenager.
"Hey Eddy, we've been looking around for you all da--*LIKE* WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?" asked Percy.
"It's official U.N.I.B.O.T business," explained Eduard casually.
"You don't work for Unibot anymore, Eddy. Unibot is *like* gone, finished, done, politically vanquished and eaten alive by its Siamese twin in the womb. Remember!?" said Percy, worried for Eduard's sanity again.
"No... no. U-N-I-B-O-T. The Universal Nautical Institute of Buoyage Oversight and Transportation, establishe--" said Eduard.
Percy interrupted him abrutedly, "-ed by GA#104. I know, I *like* suggested the name. But you don't work for U.N.I.B.O.T !!"
Eduard frowned, "yes, yes I do. I was in Unibot for years, I still have my papers."
"Argh," said Percy in frustration. "This would set a horrible precedent: imagine if every ambassador thought they could be *like* a member of any committee they wanted... it would be madness, Kennyites on the Human Rights commission, Knootians on the Food Welfare committee, Urgenchis in the International Drug Education Agency... nothing would ever get done!"
"On the contrary, Old man Mongkha has a nose for great opium," said Eduard dancing verbal circles around his poor colleague. "Listen, none of those people could join Unibot."
"WHY can't they join U.N.I.B.O.T?" asked Percy, growing weary of this discussion.
"Because Unibot doesn't exist anymore, silly," said Eduard with a boyish grin.
"It's official U.N.I.B.O.T business," explained Eduard casually.
"You don't work for Unibot anymore, Eddy. Unibot is *like* gone, finished, done, politically vanquished and eaten alive by its Siamese twin in the womb. Remember!?" said Percy, worried for Eduard's sanity again.
"No... no. U-N-I-B-O-T. The Universal Nautical Institute of Buoyage Oversight and Transportation, establishe--" said Eduard.

"Because Unibot doesn't exist anymore, silly," said Eduard with a boyish grin.
Percy grumbled and backed off; he turned adjacent to his boss, taking a deep breath to vent. Eduard smiled and turned back to look at his handiwork, the sign glimmering in the light. It had been a busy day for the former billionaire playboy.
"So, *like* what's the shtick, what are you doing with the sign?" asked Percy, sighing subtly.
Eduard glanced back at Percy, "Me? I'm not doing anything... but the U.N.I.B.O.T has a new initiative."
"What's the new initiative, Eddy?" asked Percy. "It doesn't have anything to do with your conspiracy theories about *like* the cleaning ladies again, right?"
"DAMMIT, Percy," shouted Eduard. "You and I both know that those cleaning ladies' are up to something! Nonetheless, you truculent truant, this has nothing to do with one of my so-called "conspiracy" theories. Have you ever noticed that we all keep filing our requests for office-spaces through the slot in the OBM's office? And have you ever found it suspicious that no-one ever enters and leaves the OBM's office!? I've only ever gotten letters from the OBM and even then, it's never about my office-space request, it's a receipt! Think about it: The OBM has spent no more than three dollars a year, continually claims hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in profit from rental fees and almost no one but a few Secretariat and Old Guard delegations have properly, fixed office-space."
Percy's eyebrow's lifted, "You know, I hadn't thought of it *like* that. How odd. But.. *like* what are you going to do with the lighthouse thingy?"
Eduard smiled, "I have planted a lantern at the top of the roof and flotation devices on all the floors so that I could officially registered the World Assembly Headquarters as a standard G-4D class lighthouse. Convenientally, because we're surrounded by water and on neutral property, the U.N.I.B.O.T is required to signage and map our area for the "safety" of travelers."
"Impressive, but what *like* hazards will travelers come across in the Headquarters?" asked Percy.
"WA Delegations, Cafeteria food, The Strangers' Bar etc. It's all in good cheer, whatever we sneak into the inevitable "floor directory" that the U.N.I.B.O.T will have to compose," said Eduard.
AND SO IT BEGINS....

RULES AND PROTOCOL FOR REQUESTING ENTRIES ON THE FLOOR DIRECTORY (SUBJECT TO CHANGE)
The Officially Unofficial Floor Directory of The World Assembly Headquarters is based on a similar concept from the UNHQ.
- If your national delegation would like its office recognized on the directory, I recommend that you use the format, "@@NATION@@ WA Offices" OR "@@NATION@@ WA Mission Offices".
- You may know of some services provided in the WAHQ (e.g., bookstores, cafeterias, bars, candy-shops, saloons, libraries, bawdy houses) or meeting-rooms and offices for clubs or think-tanks or WA organizations or interest-groups or religious-groups or NGOs .. etc., that's totally fine for inclusion into the Unofficial Floor Directory.
- Many ambassadors have done some exploring and found various secret passageways, enchanted statues and stuff that's off the beaten path which other ambassadors may be interested in -- that's totally fine for inclusion as well.
- Perhaps your delegation is pushing to have some hallway renamed after an old, honored or dishonored WA/UN delegation or ambassador or country, whatever or maybe there's some existing memorials (*cough* *cough*) already or some historical sites (e.g., pie fights, where your ambassador lost his/her virginity) that you'd like recognized in the Directory -- that's fine too.
- What's not fine? Breaking the secretariat rules (flamebaiting/trolling) for one thing.
- If your entry includes another nation by name, get permission from them to include that entry (e.g., Committee on Un-Unibotian Activities).
- The World Assembly is fifty stories tall. Why? Because there were fifty WA resolutions when the General Assembly was created. If that was good enough of a foundation then, I guess it should be enough of a structural foundation too, eh? Eh? Okay, not satisfied, there's an Astral Plane that doesn't follow any sort of logic or anything -- you can have an office in the first (in the NSUN HQ ????) or nine thousandth floor in the Astral Plane, for all I care.

- Do you want the whole floor to yourself? Yeah I can't do that, but if you write in the description that your delegation only recognizes yourself on the floor or maybe you're at war or something with someone else on the floor, you can have it read as though your delegation obstinately refuses to recognize the other delegations on the floor with them.
- Some room of yours is supposed to be in a different dimension or is the past or future or something crazy like that? Include that in the description.
- All committees will be randomly given home floors in the directory, if you're the author of the resolution, I'll allow you to suggest a relocation to a different floor.
- If it's just a plain-jane office or the title of the establishment is self-explanatory, feel free to not use a description.
- In the future, we will allow fraction floors for extra-fun, like the 5½th Floor. But not until we fill out the list a bit.
- Um, no more than say... two offices for any given nation, why two? Because.. um... that's the same number of testicles or ovaries as you're allowed too. >_>
- Other than that, you're allowed to keep posting as many requests as you want to include stuff in the directory.
- Have fun, be creative and try to be polite.

This is the format for requests:
- Code: Select all
[b]Name (NAME OF THE ENTRY, NOT YOUR COUNTRY):[/b]
[b]Floor:[/b]
[b]Description (Approx. no more than 500 characters with spaces):[/b]
Here's an example post:
Name: Unibotian WA Mission Offices
Floor: 14
Description: A scotch-cabinet with the lock combo: C-A-T-C-H-M-Y-2-2-B-I-T-C-H
