Given this, and Yardistan's gods-given right to rebel against the Crown, should Anandja II be overthrown?CJ Miller wrote:This. THIS. THIS!Jacobus Loki wrote:Anandja I was a joy to work with, fun, receptive to ideas, creative.
Anandja II is a royal POA, yelling at people to do things, demanding "loyalty" that she does little to earn besides sit on the throne. If she must act like a harridan instead of a Kaiser(ess), and if she cannot honour her word without twisting it out of shape, then I suggest she get out of the way and let someone else do it. Not me, gods know I don't want this to become a tug of war between me and her, and I really do need to go do RL.
Ric, Jonas, Scott, Ari, PRH's Bells, even CJ under Corey's guardianship. Anybody.
And if she feels bound by something to act in this way, then may Sakat take pity on her when he reviews her deeds.
***********************************************
The Kaiser should not have to be involved in reviewing every little County. Barons used to watch over on Counts, cajol them, change them, interact with them. Dukes did the same for Barons. The Dukes were masters in there own house, and so on. The Kaiser was able to deal with matters of substance, rather than playing schoolmarm.
If you are not going to play with that toy, I'm going to put it back in the box, you selfish little boy.
But it's my toy, I brought it from home! I just want to look at it today!
You don't own any toys here. When you bring it in that door, it belongs to ME, and I will say who plays with it. You get no toys, go and sit in the corner.
People with affinities for counties could come and go, and weave their stories in with others, or not, as the spirit moved them. The unwritten rule used to be, "Go ahead and do it." Now the rules are written, and more and more are being written, and a cast of bureaucrats will soon be needed to run what essentially nearly ran itself before. Oh, but don't spend too much time involving yourself in national affairs, or your land will be gone.
And don't speak out, or dare vote in any other way than as a rubber stamp, your vote will be gone.
Someone said, the old system didn't work, so we have to do this new one.
OK, now the new system doesn't work. Not without a massive oustfest of those of us who know that it sucks, which will lead to the system epic-failing more due to lack of people.
The worst thing about this is that Shireroth used to be fun, a diversion to be looked forward to. It used to be great to conspire, and write, and have threads interact to form a nice fabric of creativity. It felt good.
Now, for me, it makes me feel bad about myself, and puts me at odds with some of the most interesting, creative people I know.
Really gotta go very soon.

Re: So...
This sounds like a reason to rebel...
From a distance I'm concerned about the rampant lawyerism manifesting itself in Shireroth currently. A simple Kaiserial slap on the wrist or censure by the community should suffice. - Jacobus Loki

Re: So...
Yardistan(i) haven't been up to muster on Rebellion for years now. I think they gave up the right when Dolor rebelled for 3-4 Kaiser's straight, and Yardistan didn't even say anything on the matter.

O how blind I was in times past, scheming as I did to destroy Yardistan. Foolish I was not to realize that they would burn themself out without me needing to lift a finger.

Re: So...
If Yardistan would cooperate I'd love to bring them into House Mortis. Once there, we could revive the Yardistani spirit. I still consider myself yardistani, but in modern times, Yardistan has become provincial and overly conservative.

They are also mostly nonexistent. There's Greg, who's awesome but on Shireroth LoA it seems, and there is CJ, who... the less I say, the less will come to haunt me later, I suppose.

It's up to Greg how you organize as a Sub-House. But if you mean second in command of House Mortis, that's right out.

I don't think it's likely that CJ is going to give us reasonable terms. I also don't think it's likely that Gman will ever agree to this regardless of the terms.

The offer will still stand. House Mortis would openly welcome its Yardistani brother, and CJ Miller.
