There seems to be a problem with Photobucket. If it isn't resolved soon, I'll set up something else. Comment if you can see the images - I've got nothing here right now.![]() Editor (and Psychotic Master of Evil): Lord Tothe Contributors (and all-around cool dudes): Numero Capitan and Greekamerican ![]() "Those convinced against their will are of the same opinion still" - Dave Ramsey, attributed to his grandmother. ![]() Turlmanistan has created the Turlmanistan Lottery Corporation, and the first big winner was Biain the First. Check the Turlmanistan Lottery Corporation thread in the Marketplace for the latest drawing! ![]() Thursday: Cool and cloudy, with a light breeze. High 62, low 45. Friday: Sun breaks toward evening, but still cool. High 64, low 52 Saturday: Partly sunny and warmer. High 69, low 64 Sunday: Hot and dry with increasing winds. High 76, low 65. Monday: Hot with high winds. Fire danger during the day. A front should pass through during the night and bring clouds. High 84, low 70. Tuesday: Mostly cloudy and possible rain showers. High 75, low 57 Wednesday: Lingering morning showers, but the afternoon should be sunny. Moderate winds. High 78, low 64. ![]() Hello! The AWP Inquirer is back on its feet after Torchevon's real life hustle and bustle finally caught up with our Editor. Since the last issue we have concluded our delegate elections with Lord Tothe being elected as the successor to Biain the First with 10 votes to Biains 5 and Ranholns 5! Neas spoke on the issue and managed to commit a hideous spelling mistake with only his second word...
With Senate elections approaching, long time Southern Senator, Ranholn tendered his resignation from all responsibilities and said he would not stand for re-election. He cited stress in real life and has taken a leave of absence.
AWP has shown its power in the FRA elimination game in the FRA game zone. Current standings are...
AWP is currently preparing for Senate elections with Numero Capitan holding preliminary opinion polls. We are also looking to overcome our issues in the Department of Foreign Affairs and are looking for Ambassadors to send to friendly regions, talk to Greekamerican today if you're interested! The RDF has been taking a bit of a break recently, mostly due to lack of invader activity, its nice to have our boys home for a while! ![]() This week saw the Prevention of Terrorism proposal put to the floor of the World Assembly. Assemblymen from AWP debated the issue with some speaking out in support of the proposal and Donchatryit arguing against it, "It...allows states to destroy human rights at almost no cost." Our new WA Delegate, Lord Tothe summed up arguments by claiming, "This legislation offers no protection to those who are properly defined as "freedom fighters" (attacking military and government targets as opposed to civilian targets, and seeking to throw off a government rather than destroy a nation) and would allow oppressive nations like me to squash freedom fighters in the name of defeating terrorists. It's a case of IC vs. OOC here..." As voting drew to a close in AWP, voting showed 5 votes in support of the proposal, 3 against, 1 abstain and 3 people voting for the delegates own wishes. As a result, Tothe could well vote against the legislation still due to the strong arguments presented against the proposal! *update* The Resolution passed 5,660 votes to 3,853. Lord Tothe promised to act according to his OOC principles in his position as Delegate. He voted AGAINST it based on the lack of a definition of "terrorism" and the potential for abuses of power. - Lord Tothe's alternate personality as his own press secretary ![]() We need nominations for the national spotlight!

I'm on my work computer now, and I can see the images from here. Either the issue has been resolved at Photobucket, or it was my ISP having the problem all along. |
