Here's the list of residents I was able to compile from memory. If you don't like your description, let me know here or in PM what you'd like to change it to and I will do so.

If I missed you, don't be offended, because I threw this list together as fast as I could--just gently remind me and tell me what description you'd like.

If there's a piece of information you feel everybody MUST know about you or someone else that isn't specified, let me know that, too.

---

Cabinet

Checkers McDog - Current Prime Ministress and Regional Delegate. In real life, a student at Ryerson University.

Saskatoon Saskatchewan - Current Minister of Regional Affairs. A Saskatchewanite as the name suggests, he loves to party and inexplicably is a fan of the University of Michigan athletic teams.

Carbanousa - Current Minister of Defense, or possibly Minister of Defence. No matter how you spell it, this native Brit is known for his love of technology and of science fiction.

Oilers Fans - Current Minister of Justice. This lover of hockey in general and Edmonton in particular is frequently injured and has developed a certain bond with fellow poster Kana Da.

Beaver-Country-Canada - Current Minister of Foreign Affairs. Lives in a one-horse town in British Columbia, and always signs her posts as Lelana.

Redundancies - Current Minister of Doughnuts and Beer. An American, but we won't hold that against him, since he enjoys watching hockey and isn't fond of President Bush.

Other Notable Members

Mavenu - The soon-to-be-ex-South Pacific ambassador to Canada as well as a resident and Vancouverite, this poster enjoys talking to and about his panda. The origin of the panda is shrouded in the mystery of the gender wars.

Almonaster - Current Deputy Prime Minister and ambassador from The Proletariat Coalition. Native of Scotland, may know what haggis tastes like.

Freezing Cold Water - Current Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and ambassador to the Proletariat Coalition. Lives in Alberta.

Daemon - Current Deputy Minister of Doughnuts and Beer, known for his quirky observational style. Lives near Toronto but prefers the Western Canadian experience.

C-Ton - Active role-player, having participated in a variety of diplomatic and political exchanges of late.

Kana Da - Regular around the Watercooler (Canada's general discussion forum) and keeper of the insane root, this formerly genderless teenager seems to live around a bunch of crazy people and supports the NDP.

Hudson Bay - Longtime regular who took a leave of absence, but seems to be back in full force. An American who is always up for a good political debate, either for NS or the real world.

MrPopo - Resident nutcase. Has a tendency to remove his pants when no one's looking, and also when people ARE looking. Also maintains the regional webpage and map.

Baribeau - A newer poster, he has involved himself early by being appointed the Deputy Minister of Regional Affairs

Defectiveness - Another newer poster, he has been highly active around the Watercooler. You can often find him discussing anything and everything with Kana Da.

Mr. B - Maple Leaf fan who enjoys the finer things in life, like a cold, quality beer.

Ess - Another Vancouverite, this fun-loving poster was a longtime Minister of Doughnuts and Beer. Currently she hangs out at the watercooler with the rest of the crazies.

Daasfnord - Secretly in love with Bweezy, despite her assertion that he "smells". How she figures this is uncertain, as she lives in Australia and Bweezy hails from Canada, and we didn't figure odors could travel that far.

Emus in denial - An awkward flightless bird who claims that lobster is not a fruit. Comes up with exotic replies to nearly everything in the Watercooler.

Notable Inactive Members

Bweezy - Former Prime Minister, and credited with being the driving force behind the region's current government structure. Left not long ago due to real life concerns.

Blackshear - Longtime poster who left recently, citing a disinterest with the NationStates game.

Sweet, shortest description! I need to start making more poignant posts, me thinks.
And its not just any cold beer, Red, theres alot of crap out there!
Otherwise, nice job

Cool, thanks for your hard work, Captain. I suppose that if anyone was overlooked or just plum doesn't like their write up, they should post here?

That's the plan, Stan.

arrrrghhhh! Capt'n Red.

Hey Capt'n, where's daas, or Emus?

Most consecutive posts...ever

You must be very proud.

Edits made.

"Outstanding, Red team, outstanding. Get you a case of beer for that."

My one quibble is there are quite a lot of references to the water cooler, which will probably sound odd to non-locals.

um...iAm resigning as ambassador...(going back to Asia & very little internet). fyi:Panda is going to live in the forum, and originated when KD was giving away stuffed animals to the HMWHC to try and stop them from blowing up her house/GArpa clubhouse.

You know what...just leave the panda bit like that. iDon't thinks we want to be explaining about the guys versus girls threads...unless you plan on presenting that as well.

Hey the HMWHC could get some promotion throughout the NS world. It'd be interesting to see chapters of the HMWHC pop up all around the NS world B)

My quote is A O K :yes:

I think the whole idea of the HMWHC and an extensive discussion of the forums/subforums would have to be a completely different topic, and I'm not sure if we want to go over it.

At any rate, I modified Kana Da's entry, since hers is the first one to mention the watercooler (to specify what the watercooler is) and I modified Mavenu's entry to alter the panda description a bit and modify the ambassador bit--since you're still employed through the 11th, you're not retired yet, and won't be when the Fair starts...
