The Nelaga Territories

The dream lives on...
ImageGarpy the MagiGARP Says: - - - September 4, 2010

Garpity garp garp. Garpy is pretty sure those clouds changed their cycle times somewhat. Garpy misses long sunsets.

Behold! The long-awaited Nelagan Navy has revealed their Nelagan Naval Guide to the Untrained, and it is chuck-filled with ship classifications, naval ranks, battlegroup summaries, naval culture, and more. All shall know of our nation's naval might! Garpy's only complaint is that their mascot is one of those "Sea Dragon" things... as if such a beast could withstand a MagiGARP's deadly Splash attack!

Outside the Territories, Nelaga's first bid for Amity Island failed to be accepted by Shireroth ... er... Eastern Benacia ... well... that red country to the north, prompting a fairly big fiasco in which Nelaga said some unflattering things about... those guys... and then they came here to complain and defend themselves, which turned into a big clustergarp that eventually degenerated into a group therapy session.

A new discussion topic was started to try to create a new treaty by consensus of both nations, and almost unanimously everyone agrees on exactly what was in the first treaty that was rejected. Garpy has to ask what the point of all the hostility and rejection regarding the first treaty was all about! And hey, why is it the Mango-Eagle Treaty Discussion, anyway? Since when did the eagle become our national symbol! Garpy is the one doing all the work up here!

On another nearby island, Istvanistan's government finally collapsed, and a coalition between Nelaga, Gralus, and Babkha are negotiating a joint claim of the territory to serve our mutual interests. But increasing indigenous activity, possibly coupled with official Stormark support, may make this a sticky situation. But not to worry; the Nelagan Navy is already pulling their weight and has dispatched forces to secure our claim. Garpy swims beside them! To war, my fishy comrades! Hey, can I get a little spiked hat here or something?

In other news, Gravball fever (whatever THAT is!) is sweeping the nation, ducks are sneaky mallards and are the main course at Duckfeast in Maraguo, let's all give Jacobus's wife a helping hand, and you're running out of time to claim a bonus for filling our your merit calculations for August!

I know I'm way behind on things so this is a general catch-all thread for anything that the President (ie me) needs to handle but have forgotten / may have never known about at all. Seriously, just throw it all at me.

Don't say things like "work on your book / CoD2," cuz I'm doing that anyway, and I'm more talking about specific, small tasks.

I also have some things I *want* to get done, like proposing a map update and talking with Natopia about Ptia, so I might start my own list here too.

More admin than Pres:
Change the usergroups around so that you're President and I'm Speaker.
And either give me temporary admin so I can set it up; or set up the custom user field for Merit and for Votes; with a group with admin access to edit custom profile fields called 'Minister of Merit', so that can be done .

Pres:
Appoint Ministers

I'm Prez, you're Speaker. But I'm "not allowed to manage this group" of administrators. Which is actually really alarming.

Doing that requires the founder bit (which I just granted you).

Oh right, Favicon.

Is this in reference to the forum reshuffling Jonas wanted to do, but we put off because we thought we might end up moving forums anyway?

If you finished CoD2 I'd come here more often...
as soon as I'd finished playing it and pointing out lots of tiny mistakes that no one would notice :D
aside from that, i think we need to develop some new interesting technology, whether military or otherwise.

Thanks :) Hadn't noticed that.

Tried to set up what I wanted. As I expected, I need more admin permissions to be able to set Merit stuff up fully. It's fairly straightforward, so I'll pm you how to do it to save you working out how to give me more admin.

Okay. I'm working on a recruitment scheme. I've never posted anything at Charas, the RPG creation forum I frequent, about Nelaga, but I think it might be the time. I'm going to think of how I want to approach this. In the meantime, pretend to be really interesting and stuff around here to put on a good show!

Sounds a good plan. Maybe an update on CoD 2 would keep them interested? :cute

On an unrelated matter - now we only have two ministries, do you want to re jig the department forums? If you prefer, I can do it, but I figure one of us should fix them up.

We could use the wiki as our national website... just an idea... :cute

I'll continue chipping away at the military, if you'd have it. I'd love to break this writers block and finish it.

Oui. They're just triangular prisms with some curves and some ornaments.

Ok, when you get around to it, an aircraft carrier, and maybe sine destroyers would be cool.
