When the fuck did you become a Baron? As I recall, you have always been a count...

It would seem that the Emir of Raspur is now Baron of Elwynn. I realize I approached you about the position before, but now that there are some active Elwynnese citizens and since Mari decided to choose a successor herself, it would seem I was overhasty. Besides, you probably wouldn't have been able to dance anyway.

Phoenix,Get the fuck out of here.Scott,It's okay, I understand. I don't need anything more than Volsaarn, anyhow. Plus, the Elwynnese are notoriously poor dancers. Zing! Philip Locke

how did you know I could not dance? "Disclaimer: Whatever is in the above post is probably a result of my blind following of Kieran Bennett, because I have even less of a brain than Kieran. Don't even get me started on my lack of independent thought."

In the poise of your pause, old chap. It's the mark of every non-dancer, that they poise in their pause when they should be passing the pause to the plausity of the poise. Sun Bless, Earth KeepZirandorthel I of TreesiaThe Golden DarknessNiirus Tinenetuwar, Tivitha e'Taras

Quite true, Eoin.And, yes. In Hyperborea I am a baron, but in Shireroth I am but a simple count. Philip Locke

Correction, Phil: You -would- be a count had you taken care to fill out the Census some time in the last four months. As it is you are nothing but a Denizen, and you must fill out the Immigration Form to regain your citizenship and titles.

I am Count of Volsaarn and, quite frankly, there is nothing you can do about it. Until Scott dismisses me or I emmigrate from Hyperborea (which will be no time soon), my title remains as is.

Until Scott dismisses me or I emmigrate from Hyperborea (which will be no time soon), my title remains as is.First of all, I could have sworn I quoted this to you before:Quote:July 23, 2003I, Philip Locke, swear loyalty to the Kaiseress of Shireroth and the government which she represents. I will not actively or willingly attempt to damage this government nor will I help others in doing so. I will do my best to defend Shireroth in any reasonable way that I can. This I swear under the Shirerothian banner.Second of all, you're wrong in saying that there is nothing I can do about it. I can whine my ass off to the Kaiser, or I can simply do the Admin actions myself, as I always have with the Census. Oh, and yes: your title does remain as is. Denizen.

Doesn't say he actually recognises the Kaiser as ruling over him anywhere though, neither in that, nor in the LawBook. Sun Bless, Earth KeepZirandorthel I of TreesiaThe Golden DarknessNiirus Tinenetuwar, Tivitha e'Taras

In order to be a citizen of a Duchy/Barony/County you MUST be citizen of the nation.. I will NOT make the mistake Tymaria made.... Locke... Be a citizen of Shireroth.. or be a Non-citizen of Hyperborea too.... Mortis BrookshireKaiser of Shireroth
