Fides is back
Sorry for not posting an LOA, but I only planned to be away for 4 days, and I was.
Did you miss me?

Re: Fides is back
Fides, welcome back. I go away for four days and return to the sound of crickets. (Granted, I am not a Shirerithian.) You go away for four days and return to people using the "worship" and "yay" emoticons. Obviously there is quite a story behind you, and your Wiki page is not just the half of it. An important part of this story might be why you left Antica. Care to explain why in a few short, snappy sentences?

I left Antica because I wasn't having fun. That's about it really...

I'm actually only here to secretly use my Lansraad votes to annex Shieroth into Nelaga, just like Harvey, Andreas and Greg.

If Fides: note, the IC/OOC thing doesn't really happen here, hence ignoring the Al Magroth indecent

Re: Fides is back
As I've said before, pointless mergers are fun, but I don't really know if Shireroth could be part of such an event. Same way Antica proly couldn't be. To stubborn and prideful.
Re: Fides is back
If we an escape clause...
I'm not to proud and stubborn, under certain conditions. But for that I should need to see the proposal, of course (I don't want to start a discussion right now, but I find it important that we hold all doors open).
The New University of Irrel (located in Batavia) did an investigation to a (con)federation between the Dutch micronations. While it was meant for the Dutch sector, it can easily be used by Anglophones. I have to admit that it was quite some interesting research, in which was investigated how the voting system in the parliament should work if you want a fair system, which government departments should be (con)federal, etc.
Perhaps I should ask Mateo, the teacher of that subject, to bring the lessons to our university.

Re: Fides is back
Well, that's the thing. A merger should be all or nothing. You either do it right with the hope to succeed, or otherwise, why bother?

Look to it as a marriage, with the possibility of a divorce.

Re: Fides is back
Yeah.. that's just kinda my point. If you hold the possibility of divorce, then you shouldn't be getting married.

Re: Fides is back
See, Jonas gets it!
I agree with the ideology of the "all or nothing" concept, but realistically, especially these days, I fear that everyone would just choose the nothing. It's an uphill climb just convincing people to consider the idea.
As for divorces, prenupts are really common. It's not the most romantic thing in the world to decide who gets what if you go splitsville, but it's a lot better of an experience for everyone involved if you recogonize the possibility when you're still in love rather than if you hate eachother's guts. In best, you never need the prenupt and live happily ever after. At worst, it saves you fighting it out in court.

Re: Fides is back
I guess. I'm just myself in a place where a thing like that is technically an option, since I'm getting married in a year. I'm scared enough without thought like that...
