Diplomatic Events- The parties continue for the opening galas from last week. Yikes, we may be lushes!
- Although flattered, Canada voted against exchanging embassies with Ireland.
- Special welcomes to Catlandatopia of Spinward, North Pacific Ambassador of North Pacific, General BenjaminA of Allied States of EuroIslanders, and Westmorlandia of Great Britain and Ireland.
Regional Affairs:- The Village
- Jack Tarr is hosting a toga party in The Spot to celebrate one year on our forums! He's having fun pushing all the skimpily clad women into the pool. (Can you see a pattern forming here?! *grins* )
- Fighting has calmed down between The He Man Woman Haters Club and GARPA, but I'm thinking reading this will get things going again! *evil laugh*
- War and Politics
They're still out there, Some rats who left the sinking ship
- Boreal Tundrian soldiers find disturbing evidence that the old C-Ton Foundation transformed into an even more radical organization, the "Blade of the Prophet", after the conquest of C-Ton. Boreal Tundra is working hard to decrypt the documents that they found.
- 28 civilians die when a bomb detonates on a crowded Gemetrian bus in the suburbs of Tiar. Tiar is the Gemetrian name for a former C-Ton port city, and the capital of the Gemetrian province of Ur-Hyron. Gemetrian police are still investigating.
- Multiple blasts rock the nation of Durass. Notably, a SkyTram erupts in fire. C-Ton terrorists are suspected.
The Shroud
- War! Legate Grimson dissolves the 2nd Republic and arrests both Consuls. Gemetria is witness to the crowning of Grimson as Tyrant.
- The Grimsonite and Consular legions battle across the country. The colonies of Gemetrian Iran, Gemetrian Micronesia, the Gemetrian Congo, and the Martian Colonies declare themselves for Grimson. Civil war is still bitterly fought in Northern Mainland Gemetria, however Grimson has Dis and Caenia. Western C-Ton has turned into a Consular bastion as Legate Fox digs in for a long war.
Religious Fanatics Strike Labious
- Labious, a CB provincial capital, witnesses the terrible bombing. Four thousand are dead, and many more are injured. A Christian fundamentalist group claims responsibility.
- The CB government, incensed by this attack, cracks down on public worship and civil rights.
- Sports
Maple-Taco Soccer Cup I
- NoFunNinjas made the playoffs as the #8 seed and lost in the quarterfinals.
- The Algal States Epiphytes garnered the #5 seed and also lost in the quarterfinals.
- The Canada6 Maple Jays qualified in the #7 slot and lost in the semifinals.
- Omnivorous picked up the #4 seed and won all three of its playoff games. They are your Maple-Taco Cup Champions!
Fantasy Basketball
- The Nooterland Nets, Canada6 and the Esselldee Energy all picked up records of 7-2 this past week, causing them to hold their positions at first, second and third respectively.
Fantasy Hockey
- Canada6 continues to lead the Birthplace of Hockey fantasy league by a wide margin. Their lead over the #2-ranked Durass Dreadnaughts has increased to over 2500 points.
- Special welcome to new members: Juxsta, vancouver2010, Saskba, Habville, and David Kuhn.

| Jack Tarr- Your confusion has produced my clarity. Thanks. |

Liarg - Actually, that is probably too easy of an answer. We need to come up with something convoluted, involving at least 2 or three separate votes over a 2 month time span, interspersed with random drug testing and a DNA sample placed on file in case something should go terribly wrong. Maybe even throw a couple of intentional loop holes into the mix so a smart nation could circumvent something, causing another crisis and keeping us all talking about something.... :lol:
Sorry Shay, but yours is just too simple and easy to understand and implement. Very un-governmental, ya know..... ;) |

| Another small correction. The SkyTram isn't in DOC, that's where Rache was posted. He's currently on leave back in Durass though I ddin't mention which city. |
in the Weekly RP Report.
Can someone edit this in it's proper context so we can edit the report. Sorry, but I don't spend much time in the General RP area. :hide:
