Taken from the NationStates Security Council Forum:

Okay.

Now that I'm actually worried this piece of crap is actually going to pass, I've decided it's time to get serious. I know that I myself and that countless other members of the WASC will not stand for this ridiculous attempt at self-promotion by Aegara himself, and will not allow this resolution to stand among the others in the World Assembly's history.

Repeal Condemn Aegara

RECOGNIZING Aegara as the delegate of Grand Central, a region with obvious raider sympathies, which has created an army which will most likely be used to forward a raider agenda;

AGREEING that Aegara deserves to be looked down upon for his deceptive political tactics and dark intentions;

HOWEVER NOTING that this condemnation was written by Aegara himself, as has been admitted by the nation who submitted the resolution as a proposal, "The Used Kingdom," and he himself voted FOR the resolution when it was at vote;

FURTHER NOTING that the mention of his repeal of "Commend 10000 Islands" and his work against the group TITO in the resolution is totally unnecessary, and was simply written into the resolution to spark the anger of defender activists who would then be compelled to vote FOR the resolution as well;

BELIEVING that Aegara only wishes to be condemned in order to increase his own popularity among raiders and to have the condemnation icon on his nation's front page;

REFUSING to allow Aegara to achieve these conceited, selfish goals;

Hereby repeals "Condemn Aegara."


Any more ideas or support from my WASC colleagues here are strongly encouraged.

I personally prefer this, but this is a joke proposal.

The ACTUAL Condemn Aegara!

The World Assembly,

RECOGNIZING Aegara as delegate of Grand Central, an oversized region whose recruitment tactics are deceptive and have won them numerous mindless drones to use in an army which they will obviously be using in their petty squabble with the defender organization "10000 Islands," though they fail to inform the drones of this detail;

NOT GIVING a shit about his repeal of Commend 10000 Islands, as the original resolution "10000 Islands" was really a piece of crap and had to be repealed anyway;

ALSO NOT GIVING a shit about this whole monopolization of the WASC by TITO and Aegara's Grand Central, as these are two fairly small private interest groups whose populations, despite being large for regions and organizations, barely come close to being a large fraction of the overall world and WA populations;

LAUGHING at his conceited and selfish attempt to write and pass his own condemnation simply because he likes the little condemnation icon, and wants to use it to increase his popularity among raiders;

SPITTING on his massive ego and telling him to get the hell off his high horse;

HEREBY SUPPORTS this proposal to condemn Aegara but does not get it passed, therefore further depriving him of the condemnation icon he wants so badly.


EDIT: A mean old man also hurls a piss-filled water ballon at "Commend FASTERCAT," The commendation-type parallel C&C to this one. If the only thing people are going to use the SC for is the fueling of their own egotistical desires and for promoting their regions, then I don't know why the SC exists. That's what the "Gameplay" forum is for.

You can probably save yourself some time by lobbying delegates who vote for - the lead is very narrow, and getting some of the ones with more votes (20+) to switch could turn it around. I might give it a go tomorrow night if I have time.

I've got little faith in reasoning with these delegates. I've tried it before.

Lemmings often have their minds made up until a repeal appears.

But I might try it.

If you tell them that Aegara voted for, and give them a link to the delegate votes, it might work quite well.

I've got the day off, so I'll actually do some telegramming of delegates.

Hi there,

I'm sorry for bothering you, but I noticed that you voted for the current WA Resolution - Condemn Aegara. You may be interested to know that Aegara wrote this resolution himself, and asked a friend to submit it. You can even check the current voting, to see that Aegara has voted for the resolution: http://www.nationstates.net/page=UN_delegate_votes

I hope that you'll re-consider your vote,

~Sedge


Telegrammed all of these:

BELIEVING that Aegara only wishes to be condemned in order to increase its own popularity among raiders and to be able to use brandish the Condemnation icon;

REFUSING to allow Aegara to achieve these conceited, selfish goals;

Hereby repeals "Condemn Aegara."


I prefer that because it's IC and I think that all resolutions should be written without acknowledging that NS is separate from RL, that spoils the fun.

I'd also tone down the anti-raider rhetoric, some people may disagree with the deception but not think that raiding is necessarily a bad practice. I'm not sure what you could put in that first line, but something like "Recognising that SC#12, Condemn Aegara was a resolution put forward on deceitful grounds" would be much less of a turn off IMO.

Before anyone asks why I voted for this resolution, I think that the way Aegara did this was genius and he deserves his 5 minutes of fame, but I don't want it staining the SC copybook forever.

Oh, I'm actually quite surprised by that, normally a proposal won't swing back another way so late.

It was only slightly behind, and the delegate of Lazarus swung the 'against' ahead with her 120 votes.
