He's not the only one

[Jacobus Loki]

I'm going to stop calling my reduced level of participation an "LOA". Maraguo shall continue to be my primary focus.

Although I will not accept any formal position in Shireroth at this time, I will be available for the occasional scheme and a limited amount of Hopeless Causes so long as they defend Right ,Justice and Honor (and generate a level of Amusement and/or Consternation).

We also do quincenarias and bar mitvahs.

Do you also do stand-up and soft shoe? Sounds like a plan to me... This place is a lot more interestrig with you a part of it.

[Jacobus Loki]

Thank you.

Since I have no ambition, I'll fairly well speak my mind, and Balgurd take the hindmost.

[Steven Foong]

Since I have no ambition...

Have I really been that long away from micronationalism?

[hypatias mom]

Stephen--You missed the succession struggle. Jacobus eventually did the gentlemanly thing and went into exile in Maraguo, and is speaking as a jilted potential Kaiser. Promises were not kept, and yet Jacobus maintained his dignity and relinquished his present claim in the name of peace. It takes a big person to do this, and I admire his actions in this situation. I hope he comes back to us full-time because his presence here has been one that has increased the strength of Shireroth and changed a number of opinions of his character.

[Jacobus Loki]

Steven remembers me from Morovia 3.0. I was nicer there than I am here.

I'm here as full time as commitments to RL and Maraguo will permit. I'm avoiding any position that requires an oath to support the very nice man currently exercising the power of head of state.

But it is freeing, not really being concerned about such things.

[hypatias mom]

I can certainly empathize with you on this one. And, yes, he is a very nice man, and you were both given a raw deal. They say leopards can't change their spots, but you somehow bear little resemblence to that awful fellow who blew fire out of his mouth and swallowed independent countries whole. Gee--do you thihk there has been a bit stereotyping going on??!!

[Jacobus Loki]

Well, the breathing fire part is true, great parlour trick.

As for swallowing countries whole.....well, let's just say my main former adversaries couldn't run a nation to save themselves from the demon-fish, but they were very good at back-room off-the-forums invective, and reasonably competent propagandists.

C'est la guerre!
