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!

Wondering if it's worth issuing shares. Not in a "you own the company" sort of way, but in a "here's a way to grant corporate sponsorship" sort of way.

It's an important issue because Alexandria has 60 000 Jasoni off Stormark that they plan to invest soon. Word on the street is VBNC are going to get the contract to manage it, and I'm sure they'd look favourably upon investing in QUARREL - for the good of the sector.

I was thinking of an initial 'float' of 100 units of sponsorship priced at 100 Jasoni each. That would raise 10 000. Of that, 5000 would go for work already done (thinking 1500 to Scott, 1000 to Harvey and 2500 to Andreas, for work already done on programming, planning, testing etc); and the remaining 5000 would be paid out as further work is done on the system in a bounty style format. Provide a bit of an incentive to work. If we eventually spend that 5000, we can always issue further units of corporate sponsorship.

I agree to your plan. I also feel that it would be wonderful if you could get Scott to agree as well.

Agreed for the sake of "do whatever you want economically", but not in the sense of me acknowledging that these shares grant any sort of creative control the QUARREL system. I reserve the right to go off and do my own thing with it at any time, though I won't prevent other people from using it and I won't take other people's work without asking them.

Of course. They're purely corporate sponsorship, they entail no control over QUARREL in the slightest.
