Equilism Weekly Update August 23rd, 2005 President / UN Delegate - Chaucerin Prime Minister – Moo-cows with guns Population: 261 Nations http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?act=idx Voting has begun in Equilism’s latest round of elections. Both President Chaucerin and Prime Minister Moo-cows with guns are running unopposed, and are both currently up 16 votes to 0. In addition, we have six candidates for the Senate. Ti Vea, Bombooda, MILLITARISM, Equalist Communist, Neo-Conservatism, and Zapvilla are all running, and all are garnering 100% approval votes as of now. In Foreign Affairs, Ortunga has been dispatched as our latest ambassador, going to The Nile River Valley. We are also pleased to announce that we have re-opened the embassy of the North Pacific here in Equilism. As you all know, we were allied to TNP until Pixiedance handed control of the delegacy over to Moldavi, a leading invader, who installed the tyrannical North Pacific Directorate. TNP has recently had its first elections under its new democratic government, after the bizarre collapse of the NPD and we are thrilled to see the return of democracy to the region. Immigration has recently seen a reform, with Minister Notherfork re-organizing the Department into two offices. There will be an office of Recruitment, to be headed by Bombooda, and the Naturalization Office, to better familiarize new members to the region. The E-Army has been especially busy this week, seeing action in Project Rockstar, Costa Rica, Hell, Grantchester Meadow, World Dot Com, The Galactic Core, and in Seattle. In the lighter areas of the forum, debates have quieted down with election season, but games such as The Word Association Game, and Ask the Guru are as popular as ever. In addition, two tournaments have opened up in the arcade, for Pacman and Tetris, so if you like Pacman, we’re still looking for a few more people to sign up. Lastly, the region’s attention is riveted to our fantasy baseball league. Despite Neo-Conservatism dominating nearly all of the season, both Nooterland and Moo-cows with guns have stormed his hold on first place, and last week, Nooterland overtook Neo by a half game. With two weeks to go, Neo and Noot are squaring off head to head this week, in what looks like the match up of the century. Will light or darkness prevail? Tune in next week to find out… |

Not if I can help it! Equilism Weekly Update August 30, 2005 President / UN Delegate - Chaucerin Prime Minister – Moo-cows with guns Population: 226 Nations http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?act=idx Elections are over and the results are in: Both President Chaucerin and Prime Minister Moo-cows with guns have been re-elected by acclamation, with Chaucerin receiving 100% of the vote (Chaucerin cast no vote), and Moo-cows receiving 95.65% with one abstention. The Cabinet is now in the process of being chosen and will hopefully go to vote next week. All six Senatorial candidates were elected, each receiving 100% of the vote: Ti Vea, Bombooda, MILLITARISM, Equalist Communist, Neo-Conservatism, and Zapvilla. Unfortunately, Bombooda has had to leave the game (hopefully temporarily) due to RL issues. He did a great job as Deputy Minister of Immigration, and would have made an excellect Senator. We wish him all the best and hope he is able to return. We have had a few changes in Foreign Affairs, some temporary. Koona has taken over at USK, Equalist Communist at Freedom Fighters and Ortunga headed over to The Rejected Realms. We thank Notherfork for his service as ambassador and regret his loss due to school starting. Moo-cows takes over at The Proletariat Coalition, and we thank Adyndril for his service as well, as RL takes up more of his time. Because of Nooterland's temporary situation of reduced online availability, Moo-cows will serve as interim ambassador to England and Ireland, and Equalilzed Communist as ambassador to Wales. The E-Army has been rocking and rolling around the world, helping to keep regions safe in such exotic places as Empire of Japan, Confederacy of Green Waves, Subreality, Military Photos and The Ocean of Purity. Debates continue to be quiet as school starts up for many, but games and role plays are picking up. The old standards, Word Association and Word Game are quite active. The Okata Crisis role play continues to develop, and a new one, Terror Attacks in Zorn Uzkul, has just started. Our fantasy baseball league continues to provide drama to our region. Unfortunately darkness prevailed last week in the match between Nooterland and Neo-Conservatism and Neo retook his first place standing. Representing the forces of light, however, Nooterland is still breathing down his neck and promises to overtake him. The fat lady has not yet sung in this exciting race to the finish. |

Equilism Weekly Update September 5, 2005 President / UN Delegate - Chaucerin Prime Minister – Moo-cows with guns Population: 221 Nations http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?act=idx President Chaucerin and Prime Minister Moo-cows have selected their Cabinet and the membership has approved: Vice President: Nooterland Minister of Foreign Affairs: Grothistan Minister of Military: Bismarcia Minister of Intelligence: Westwind Minister of Immigration: Equalist Communist Minister of Interior: Tse Moana Justices: Chief Justice: Bismarcia Associate Justice: Tse Moana Associate Justice: Grothistan Neo-Conservatism was elected to the new Speaker of the Senate position by his fellow Senators. In that position he will provide direction to that body as well as work closely with the Cabinet and the Executive. Bombooda has returned to the region and a special election will be held on his position as Senator. The Executive (President and Prime Minister) has unveiled an ambitious agenda for this term. Featuring a four-pronged approach, the agenda is a comprehensive approach and focuses mostly on foreign affairs. We hope to form a centralized foreign policy body by uniting our diplomatic, legislative, military and intelligence functions behind common goals. A Constitutional Convention will also be convened to bring our Constitution in line with the current practices of the region. Immigration will continue to also be a focus of this administration. The E-Army continues to be busy and has seen action in Germany (a few times), 0000 United Democratic Nations, The Ocean of Purity, Zurich Orbital and Pink Floyd. Debates are still quiet, other than Vladimire continuing to challenge our Resident Philosopher King and Master of Debate, Chaucerin, in the Philosophy thread. Role plays are relatively quiet as well, but Word Association and This or That are the most popular games this week. The forces of darkness in our region have overtaken those of light in our fantasy baseball league. After dogging Neo-Conservatism for weeks, Nooterland has fallen 4 games behind the evil one. With only two weeks remaining, it doesn't look for our champion of good, Nooterland. However, the Dark Lord Neo-Conservatism can't count his winnings yet, as the fat lady has only come onto the stage and has yet to sing. |

Equilism Weekly Update September 12, 2005 President / UN Delegate - Chaucerin Prime Minister – Moo-cows with guns Population: 220 Nations http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?act=idx Interior Minister Tse Moana is working on getting the Equilism Theatre, for special role plays, up and running and the Equilism News Agency back on a regular schedule. Military Minister Bismarcia is updating military history/mission counts, looking at some promotions and increasing the size of our updater force. Intelligence Minister Westwind announced the appointment of Zapvilla as his Deputy Minister. He reports the Intelligence Academy has accepted and begun training with new Agent Cadets and the Ministry is reviewing current missions and agent status. Speaker of the Senate Neo-Conservatism announced the Senate Immigration Project in which Senators will work in conjunction with the Immigration Department to recruit new members to the region. Bombooda was reelected to the Senate. The E-Army continues to be active against invaders and has participated in actions in Germany, Asmer, NS Highway, AAA, Howe Hall, USA, Austria and The Olde Worlde. Debates are still quiet, the only posting occurring in College Football, Failure? That's not a Word and Philosophy. However, it seems that Vladimire has recognized that football madness has started and is waiting until the "football pixies" are done before she engages again in serious debate. Role plays are still quiet, but Word Association continues to be the most popular game. The Arcade continues to be busy, with new member 420 Celebrants racking up several championships in Hot Shots Golf 4, Seconds of Madness, Munch Man and Sheep Invaders. Zorn Uzkul is champion of Ultimate Football and Moldavi is champion of Conundrum 3D. Our fantasy baseball league has entered the playoffs. Nooterland plays Zorn Uzkul and Zapvilla plays Neo-Conservatism; the winners of these two games then play each other. There is still ample opportunity for the forces of light to overcome the Dark Lord Neo-Conservatism who has dominated the league all season. Our fantasy football league has begun with the following players: Dark Lord Neo-Conservatism, Nooterland, Chaucerin, Penngrove, MILLITARISM, Zorn Uzkul, Koona, Moo-cows, Bismarcia, Vasilii, Grothistan, Zapvilla, Bombooda and Tigerrian. This looks to be an interesting season, with Bismarcia and Zorn Uzkul wheeling and dealing for the past couple of weeks. |

Equilism Weekly Update September 19, 2005 President / UN Delegate - Chaucerin Prime Minister – Moo-cows with guns Population: 222 Nations http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?act=idx Speaker of the Senate Neo-Conservatism announced that implementation by the Senate of its tasks and procedures passed last term is complete. Foreign Affairs Minister Grothistan continues our Foreign Affairs audit. The E-Army saw action in Socialism, Palestine, The Anumist Revolution, World Power United, The North Atlantic, Titan Ae, Sex and Alliance of Dictators. A small discussion on Bird Flu took place in Open Debate, but role plays and games are still quiet. The Arcade continues bring in members from other regions, with The Mighty Pump being the Kill the Pop Ups champion, West-Flanders being the Moon Cave and Parasitesi champion, Blackshear is the champion of Battle and Moldavi is the champion of Mud and Blood: Vietnam. Our fantasy baseball league enters the last week of the playoffs. Zapvilla fell to the Dark Lord Neo-Con this last week, and it is once again up to Nooterland uphold the forces of light and dethrone the Dark Prince. |

MILLITARISM is currently away and for that time, I will be replacing him as a temporary ambassador from Equilism to keep you guys updated. Equilism Weekly Update September 26, 2005 President / UN Delegate - Chaucerin Prime Minister – Moo-cows with guns Population: 222 Nations http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?act=idx The membership is voting on a changed PRP policy as well as a petition by Astarial for triple citizenship. Military Minister Bismarcia is about halfway through the process of updating the mission counts and other aspects of our army's history. Additionally, the demerit system is almost codified. Foreign Affairs Minister Grothistan continues our Foreign Affairs audit. The E-Army successfully participated in liberations/defenses of Evil Genius Forums, HBO IRC, Massachusetts and A Socialist Hippie Paradise (unfortunately, Neo-Conservatism missed this one :P). Equilism's first group picture, featuring some of our region's finest, done by Grothistan can be found here: http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=2658 Debates are heating up in Open Debate, with Saudi Arabia turning to terrorists and America, with Neo-Conservative being the advocate for America exerting her military power, and Grothistan leading the voices condemning America's imperialist actions. In Left to Die, about prisons in New Orleans in Katrina's aftermath and how prisoners were left to drown instead of being moved out with the general populace, there seems to be pretty wide opinion that it is inexcusable; Moo-cows even noted that we need to clean up on the home front before we try to clean up other countries politically. Clearly, debates are happening again! Nooterland, in a valiant effort for the forces of light, defeated Dark Lord Neo-Con in the final playoff, but alas, the forces of darkness prevailed in the league standings and Darth Neo-Con remained in first place. In fantasy football, things aren't going so well for Darth Neo-Con, as he is in 11th place out of 14. Jedi Nooterland is in first place and the standings after 3 weeks are: Nooterland Nasties, Vasilicorp MBucks, Koona Salamanders, Bomboodas Terrorists, The Tigerrianists, Zorns Raiders, Bismarcia Mariners, Militarism Zeppelins, Penngroovians, Moo-Cows Grazers, Neocons, Grothistan Gunners, Chaucerin Visigoths, Zapvilla Rebels. Sign-ups for fantasy basketball have just gotten underway. Apparently, we like fantasy sports. |

Equilism Weekly Update October 3, 2005 President / UN Delegate - Chaucerin Prime Minister – Moo-cows with guns Population: 221 Nations http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?act=idx The membership approved a change of policy towards the The Pacific in which Equilism recognizes the PRP as the legitimate government of the feeder, and extends the possibility of diplomatic relations. We will be sending Prime Minister Moo-Cows to the Pacific Summit to represent our region. As part of our Foreign Affairs Audit, the following embassies were closed and ambassadors withdrawn due to inactivity or the death of the region: A New Beginning, 15 Mile Track, NPC Consulate, The Nile River Valley, Japanada, USK and Wales. Our embassy at Conservative Paradise was closed due their interest in only a very narrow spectrum of NS. Astarial's petition for triple citizenship was voted down. As part of our move towards greater transparency of government to the membership, the Senate has begun declassifying private threads and posting them in the public council chamber. The E-Army successfully participated in liberations/defenses of YYY, Palestine, Uberia, CCE, The Olde World, Zion Mountains, Confederacy of Green Waves and The Galactic Core. We also participated in a liberation attempt of Punic Carthage. Grothistan has returned with another Pirate Herald, this time taking on the history of Piracy. Read here: http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=2674 Debates are back in force in Open Debate, with members arguing whether Bush is strictly a conservative or liberal in What is Bush, The Minority Problem focusing on U.S. Secretary of Education Bill Bennett's statement referencing abortion of black babies as a way to lower crime in America and Political Parties, which focuses on the two-party system in the U.S. and how it does/doesn't work. There is much speculation on Moo-cows' secret life and many photos offered as evidence have been posted. He continues to deny everything. http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=2624 Equilism's alcohol preferences has also garnered much interest, and includes a debate about not drinking, http://www.equilism.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=2692. We have a new game imported from the Canada's forum called The Pants Game. You take a famous quote and put the word "pants" in place of a noun; it makes for some interestingly funny statements. It has become fairly popular. |
