Silly SC proposals - post them here!

Postby Omigodtheykilledkenny » Wed Jun 03, 2009 9:00 am

Why does every C&C-related thread have to be about the drama? Post the truly priceless C&C nominations here!

This is not an official outlet for reporting illegal proposals. Posting here does not guarantee that a proposal will be deleted. In fact, posting a proposal here virtually assures that it won't be deleted. It's about the only thing Ard has determined not to be a MODNAZI about. So post at your own risk. :p

EDIT: Some guidelines for writing C&Cs are posted here.

Condemn Myosa

A resolution to express shock and dismay at a nation or region.


Category: Condemnation
Nominee: Myosa
Proposed by: Filbertiana

Description: RECOGNIZING that Myosa is breaking WA laws and sponsoring violent terrorist attacks against humanity.
BELIEVING that Myosa is ready for attack on the its neighbor countries.
PUNISHING Myosan government with

It's not illegal, but it seems strange that a nation should be threatened with military intervention until they make it clear that "their government will not resign and until their dictator will not be arrested". An otherwise okayish resolution messed up by a couple of superfluous "not"s.

I know the branding rules have been thrown out the window for C&Cs as far as mentioning the nominee, but is it legal for the proposing nation to mention themselves?

I wish I remember who wrote:Games like Nationstates are like a big cardboard box, and there are two kinds of people in the world. The kind who look at the empty void inside the box and ask "Where the hell is it?" and the kind who jump into the box with their friends and make it into a fort, or a spaceship.

I asked about it in the "How to write a C&C" thread too. Obviously the branding rule can't apply to the nation/region being commended, but until I'm told otherwise I'll assume it still applies to the proposer mentioning themselves (unless of course they're commending themselves). This may have already been discussed somewhere in the mountain of C&C discussions but I don't feel like hunting for it.

I don't think either of the Mad Sheep Railgun proposals belong in this thread. They're both legal.

I ruled, in the Commend Goobergunchia thread. that it was legal to mention resolutions of a previous body, as there was no possibility that those resolutions would ever be negated by repeals, so the first one stands.

Possibly the second one could be queried on the "no proposals on matters that could be resolved in Moderation", but he's not asking that the name be removed (which would be a Moderation matter), he's just condemning it as a choice.

Silly? Well, I'm not going to be the one to tell the GA that commending one of its predecessor's historic proposals is silly. And the second one merely condemns a nation for an action, which is well within the ambit of the category.

The more scandalous charges were suppressed; the vicar of Christ was accused only of piracy, rape, sodomy, murder and incest. -- Edward Gibbon on the schismatic Pope John XXIII (1410–1415).
