Minister of information?

I was wondering who the minister of information is... The New/Announcements secions have not been updated since late 2002 which is kinda really sad...I mean we should have SOME press no? "Never let sense conquer nonesense"-- Quixy the god of Madness.

Nobody but the elusive Steve Musal... erm... AIM: Eros Quelathas? What the PRH? Why didn't anyone tell me that Steve Musal is ErosDarkstar? I thought this guy was someone who Erik & co. knew in real life but who rarely visited the forums at all...well, it explains the stuff about dragons on the website... "I believe they just installed Gentoo Linux."

I think I'll start by reanimating the MiniInfo without taking on any specific duties or anything... I mean I gotta do SOMETHING around here. Besides, people need to know what's going on in their country... Kinda... Well if they already don't... Which they do. AND if there's anything happening...But I mean come on, everybody needs a little Quixy touch to events... Just to make life a bit more interesting.I just need to get to know people and the stuff that's going on, then I'll get down to it.If nobody mindes that is.

I'd like to remind you that although Shiritihian politics tend to be rather anarchistic practically, we do prefer to maintain the pretense that there's a orderly structure of leadership and subordination here... well, at least as long as we're talking about micronational stuff. Because of this, you might want to read the new constitution to make sure you understand what ministers do in Shireroth...and... you might also want to talk with Erik and Steve just to make sure you know what you're doing.On a more practical level... Shirerithians do know what's going on in the nation. I don't think I've ever had to have Steve tell me what's been decided officially (if he has posted announcements somewhere, I've been blissfully unaware of their existence). AFAIK the job of the MiniInfo is, in practise, to be the one who's blamed when the website has been neglected for Sakat knows how long. So, if you want to update (and perhaps beautify) the website, go for it. "I believe they just installed Gentoo Linux."

*sniff* I never questioned anyone's authority... Please don't kill me, great almight Ari!I've read the constitution... But, I'll read it again. I guess... :pBasically that was just an idea... I guess the way I said it made you think I was taking over Shireroth *note to self: think BEFORE you write*... Which I'm not, I just got a bit too over-excited. Ummm yeah. I tend to be over-excited... So sorry about that.I'd like the idea of taking care of the website. I personally couldn't read some stuff because my eyes hurt... (yeah a blue background and a red font might seem as a great idea but...)I'll try talking to everyone and see what I can do :). "Never let sense conquer nonesense"-- Quixy the god of Madness.

BTW, you might want to write an announcement about the new constitution. I stumbled upon it basically by accident and I'm not sure if people are quite aware of its existence... it's slightly... underannounced considering it's a new constitution, IMO :/....

Heh... I can't do much before I'm allowed to. I must be an admin to post on the news/announcements forum. "Never let sense conquer nonesense"-- Quixy the god of Madness.

I said that you should write one, not post one :p... and besides, you were going to contact Steve and/or Erik in any case so you could nag at either of them to give you mod on that forum or at least post the announcement... "I believe they just installed Gentoo Linux."
