Long live Anandja II!

[Scott of Hyperborea]

Kaiser Mors VI died in a tragic skydiving slash fireworks accident last week, paving the way for Kaiseress Anandja II to ascend to the throne under the new house system. The transfer of power, like the house system itself, was not without controversy, with Jacobus Loki briefly contesting the claim. Nevertheless, Anandja is now firmly in power, and is recruiting a new team including Daniel Farewell as Arbiter and a steward to be named later.

And things have been, like, really active. A new assistant MiniInfo, new MiniEx, revised Decreebook, new Swan Awards, even some new Landsraad votes, and a railway. And we have new citizens! Welcome to Edgard, better known as the Emperor of Alexandria and now a member of House Kildare, and to CJ Miller (at long last!) who has already spiffed up some of our graphics.

In foreign news, Ashkenatza has opened up a local branch of 4chan, Antica is still barbarian and possibly supports selling babies, and the MCS languishes in Spangle-less-ness (but good on Moshe, who's starting a project to catalog wars. Just don't include Shirerithian civil wars, or you'll be busy till Kralizec - which, incidentally, is the name of our newest active county!)
