Terlibe, could you please send me the original landmasses you added to the map? I find it impossible to improve the quality of the current map.

@Grobladonia I added the best factbook award for Suceavija (you need to be an admin to do this), and I added the "best national fact book" award to the hall of honor.
I think that I can try to find a different skin for the forum on the admin control panel, but I don't know how to make a different one myself.
I agree that the DSA day would be a great day to award all the awards to the nations banned from the DSAlliance.
If you have some debate topics, post them. I'll add them to the current business and mention them on the RMB. Also, if you have any questions or are unsure of something, just ask someone. I have asked Suceavija quite a few things ever since I took office.

I'll ask New Bazlantis about the IRC channel, so we can hopefully get it running again.

I would also like to not write the amendment for the backup P/WAD and SG until Amendments 37 and 38 are voted on.

@New Andureo The best I can do is send you the map the map from just after I added the land masses. There are no nations on any of the new land masses, but there are still ones on the old land masses.

Yes, I think that is also OK. Thank you very much!

EDIT: It doesn't matter. I have managed to do it myself:

I'll start adding nations soon.

@Grobladonia If you have not seen my last post, I recommend looking there first. I actually am able to entirely edit themes, so I can edit the theme for DSA day.

Sorry about my little 24h+ absence. :(

That's good and I think a celebratory flag for the DSA would be good as well since it could be seen both by those that don't come to this forum very often as well as by those outside the DSA. It doesn't need to be very fancy, perhaps just adding a "2011-2013" at the bottom and "DSA Day" at the top of our current flag. I will try and make something myself but I am a novice at image editing, to say the least.

Perhaps something could be added in the WFE as well, if it's possible. And of course, plenty of congratulatory and happy remarks in the RMB :)

I'm not sure what else to suggest really. As far as I know special skins is the standard way sites celebrate an anniversary. I'll sleep on it and see if I get any more ideas (it's 4AM here right now).

I'll post the debate in the morning since I'm a bit tired.

Also, will I be the caretaker for the City-State? And can anybody create an account for me on the NSWiki? I still can't do it.

@Grobladonia I can definitely make the kind of flag you mentioned. I previously made some medals and flags for the design studio so making 1 special flag won't be a problem. I'll also add some message in the WFE.
The caretaker of the capitol doesn't have to be the MDA, but you can take the position if you would like. Lastly, I also am unable to register on the NS Wiki. I think that problem exists for everyone.
