Pre-Landsraad: Bill: The Mango Map

[Jacobus Loki]

Things are afoot, fear not.

BTW, Lac Glacei belongs (presently) to the FRC and the Imperator Rex Emeritus, I don't care WHAT their littl map says..............

[Maksym Hadjimehmetov]

Someone wants to change a county name to Mango? Right...
That isn't reasonable, I agree. At least they should try and make it look less conspicuous- by calling it something like, say, Mangostan or Mangoria.

[benkern]

Mangozamin if you're moving to Elwynn.

[Maksym Hadjimehmetov]

Mango-lach or Crestmango Downs if in K'Tzuni

[hypatias mom]

Now you're just getting silly.

[Maksym Hadjimehmetov]

So you say. But we take our mangoes seriously back in Modan-lach.
You obviously haven't read of our county-wide mango feast before wars. A warrior's fruit, is a mango.

[hypatias mom]

I thought those were prunes.

[Jacobus Loki]

Prunes for Klingons, mangoes in Moden-Lach. Makes sense to me.

Fired fish, anyone?

[Kaiser Mors V]

Many names are taken from Warcraft 1 not WoW.... I'm old-school... But I am personally trying to move away from names taken from games when I can... (As long as I can still spell and pronounce them...)

[Aurangzeb Khan]

Bah! Elwynn forever!

[Jacobus Loki]

If I may be so bold-

The MCS map shows a strip of unclaimed territory East of the Elwynn River, as well as a strip west of Caligae.

We should at least get that as a gesture of good will from MCS.

And who claims that weird brown colour to the west? My old eyes can't quite figure it out?

[benkern]

Amokolia, newbs, under Jess' control. He is a citizen of Shireroth if you forgot.

[Aurangzeb Khan]

Jess! Do your duty... surrender to Shireroth!

[Maksym Hadjimehmetov]

Only in micronationalism do males call themselves Jess.
Oh, and sorry for the strange shape of Amokolia's claim. I designed it back in the days when I was an MCS council member, and thought if the nation had control over the top of the river through Benacia as well as a seaport, 'twould be a good thing for them.
Their loss, I suppose. In retrospect it gives Shireroth an excuse to have all the unclaimable land around it- and you're lucky the Amokolians haven't poisioned the river source or blown up the Elwynn Sluice or something!

[Aurangzeb Khan]

Now who would do a silly thing like that?

[Maksym Hadjimehmetov]

ROFLMAO!
You know, the idea of bombing the sluice was originally Sep's, back when everyone in the CIS had the idea that Shireroth detonated a nuclear device in Kahbah. He wanted the Congans, Jamzinians, and CIS government troops to destroy the sluice to stop the Shirereithans from attacking the southern CIS territories such as Tchistanski, whilst allowing the rest to creep past where Amokolia is now and avoid the flooding.
'Twas quite clever, I think. But it never worked because Sep used the incident as an excuse for war. When we all realised that's what he did it for, his downfall from CIS leadership began, I suppose.

[Scott of Hyperborea]

I remember that crisis. That was, in all my years of foreign ministering, the stupidest crisis I was ever forced to waste my time getting involved with.

[Maksym Hadjimehmetov]

Quite. Being only an insignificant layman in the CIS administration then (before I bece CIS leader for the princely duration of one week), I actually thought there was some truth behind it. Pah!

[Jacobus Loki]

Well, since Jess is a Count, perhaps we can discuss the Barony of Amokolia?

[Ari Rahikkala]

Uh... where did this thing about wanting Amokolia to join Shireroth come from? They're planning to maybe join Gralus or not, but they definitely don't seem to be interested in joining Shireroth. Besides, their land is on Benacia anyway, it wouldn't help us look more like an empire if we did manage to annex them

[Liam conToketi]

Well, since Jess is a Count, perhaps we can discuss the Barony of Amokolia?

Too late, he's applying Amokolia to join Gralus. But odds are he won't be accepted, despite my best efforts to argue in his favor...

[benkern]

Is he trying to join as a full member or a client state... thing?

[Liam conToketi]

Client state, but either way it probably won't happen unless Da.Huntsman (new president, thanks to betrayal by my own vassal) decides it's good to allow them...

[Gman Russell]

Everything belongs to us anyway, once we get Lac Glaciea back, we'll take them over.

[benkern]

Liam, you got prepwned. I'd go kick their asses if I were you... what kind of an election is it where people are free to vote for whom they choose?

[Liam conToketi]

I never actually wanted to be president anyway. I'm Emperor, it's a better title

[Andreas the Wise]

Liam, you got prepwned. I'd go kick their asses if I were you... what kind of an election is it where people are free to vote for whom they choose?

Oh, I think the question is more who chose?

[hypatias mom]

That actually sounds more like Shireroth--only the dukes and barons may speak in the Landsraad, and only the dukes may vote--the ones on top make the decisions, and the people live with them.

[Jacobus Loki]

I never actually wanted to be president anyway. I'm Emperor, it's a better title

(sigh)

Private joke.

Private Joke, get over here!

Shine those boots.

[Jacobus Loki]

OK, who is going to draw this up for a vote?
