NationStates is the name of the universe the game takes place in, and is generally accepted as an okay term.

And I agree, I don't think the target has done enough to merit a commendation, or if they have it is not conveyed through this proposal.

I don't support Lag at all, but I detest people's insistence that he deserves a condemnation, or the people against him deserve commendations. He hasn't accomplished that much relative to a lot of people in the game, and I think he gets brought up in the SC much more often than he should. And it's always the same group of people who bring him up.

You may well think that, but I couldn't possibly comment.

Anyway enough of the Francis Urqhart impressions, I can and will comment.

Whoever the nominee is, he's an unknown who has done nothing and is underserving of any type of award. TWP will not support this and will vote against it if it somehow makes it to quorum.

You've got a lot to learn, then. Writing C&Cs, or any resolution for that matter, is not a race. Most bills get talked about, edited, etc. for days, weeks, or even months. You gave it 2 hours. Also, you submitted it without any of the regulars liking it (or most of them not even having read it). You've pretty much ensured that this will fail.

This is vague. It doesn't describe enough. I think you should specific. I did more than this.

Well, to be frank, what you think doesn't matter. You need 115 WA Delegates to think it's fine as well, and that's just to get it to vote.

Perhaps you should take a look at a few recent commendations that have passed, to get an idea of how much work goes into writing a passable commendation.

-- Wad Ari Alaz, Wrapperian Ambassador to the WA; Author, SCR#200, GAR #300, GAR#361.
