Hi, 4th here, and not a very silent 4th either.

Here's an active ticker with the remaining native's opinions of Liberate TMC. One can either lament the loss, or move on, emboldened to tackle the narrative. I prefer the latter.

You seem to have a decent community over at Mystical Alliance. Let the past go man......

There an issue with the decent community in The Mystical Alliance celebrating Alistia's efforts to defend our former home and holding a referendum on their work? :eyebrow:

Unlikely that the founder account of the new TMC will cte anytime soon, but preventing a password leaves open hope for the future, with little downside, so I will still be voting for.

Will it prevent the founder password though?

I mean, it makes sense it'd prevent it from the delegate, but the founder?

The term 'Delegate-imposed' means it's not about who actually sets the password (the term 'Delegate-set' would've been used in that case) but under who's authority the password is imposed on those trying to enter the region. If the founder nation is alive (regardless which region it is in or whether the delegate has access to regional controls), any password present is deemed set with the (indirect) authority of the Founder nation and thus be Founder-imposed. Only if there is no living Founder will any password be deemed Delegate-imposed.

So, imagine Founder sets a password and then Ceases to Exist. There no longer being a Founder means any present Delegate automatically obtains access to regional controls, and from then onward the password is deemed to be Delegate-imposed.

It was kind of a rhetorical question to Alistia. :lol:

I was already pretty sure that it wouldn't have any bearing at all on a founder-set password when the founder was still around. But I do appreciate quoting that exact explanation of how it works, since there was some smaller specifics I wasn't sure about (like if it differentiates between if the delegate puts it up while the founder is still active).

I have been acting with a defender coalition to liberate this region for over a week before getting burnt out, and I'm glad that we have a Security Council resolution to restore The Mystical Council once and for all. Defenders' efforts have not been in vain. Full support of this resolution.

The post I was responding to said that "those who care enough to talk" had accepted the region’s fate. That’s categorically false. Beyond that, the natives who are speaking up are of the region’s native government. Hardly randoms. Im not sure what your point is meant to convey.

Seeing as how the region was refounded and the liberation is pointless, I am SHOCKED that emergency rooms all over the world aren’t full of people injured from tripping over their own shoelaces trying to be the first to repeal this and grab some of that sweet, sweet badge goodness…..

You realize it won't work since the original is gone correct? Also you defenders can be just as much scumbags as raiders too sometimes. Don't put yourself on a pedestal

It may get repealed soon. The Mystical Alliance is holding a referendum on the topic if or if not to repeal the resolution.
