Nice List | 2023
Candlelit Publishing
Dictated: 27 Nov, 2023 Typed: 01 Dec, 2023 | From the Desk of the Elfin Scribe Napapiiri, Rovaniemi, FIN |
Well, it seems the seasons have gone ‘round, once again, arriving back to us with all the telltale signs. The night grows long. The sun grows cold. And overheard on the street goes the familiar refrain, “I gave at the office.”
We, here, at the region of Christmas, invite you to give with us, as well. As we compile our (semi)annual Nice List, we ask that you take a bit of time to write in to us with the names of those you feel deserving. The hope for this list is that it serve as a spotlight for generosity, a friendly nod to those whose toil brought pleasure, and whose hearthful presence was sufficient to fill the room with warmth.
As many niches that exist within NationStates, there are ways for someone to have an impact. Whether their impact was felt by many or few, that they had one at all is all that matters! Please send us their names, and let us laud them.
Please telegram Yuletide Yggdrasil with the name of the nation(s).
Include a few words of context as to why you are nominating them.
And please let us know whether you wish to remain anonymous.
You may continue to send in names right up to Christmas day!
ScotlandSerenity, is the rock of Krillin; with unfailing love and dedication to the region.

Westinor :
She's a wonderful addition to NationStates overall, and has had a massive positive impact on me personally. She goes above and beyond in welcoming and teaching folks, and 100% deserves to be on the Nice List.

They had a few puppets go around last Christmas wishing everyone a merry Christmas in our region and also helped us a great deal during a raid where they and their region provided us with somewhere to stay until the raid got defeated.
And also they're a all round nice person and very polite.

They are a lovely traveling companion. Can't imagine being on the road without them. Also, with their great taste in music, they always compile the perfect mixtape for the occasion, making sure to include that one Lord Huron song that always gets stuck in my head!

Tiralta :
Tiralta performs a great deal of selfless work for the benefit of their region, and the community of friends who make it up. This writer is personally enviable of the well of energy they must have to draw upon for their many projects. But it is their thoughtfulness that is the most noteworthy of all their traits.

Xarikistan, a most friendly and chilled mate of everyone, powerful and strong in times of hardship, but welcoming and caring always. Definitely someone to be commended.

For the generous donation of their time and energy in creating flags and other imagery for players. That they've been volunteering their skills over on the forums for so long, at this point, is inspiring.

When we were invaded near the start of the year, they immediately stepped up to the plate and offered us a lot of helpful advice and assistance. (There were others, but Q was outstanding.) They were also very respectful of our right to choose our own way, even when they clearly felt it was not a good approah.

For all the hard work they put into keeping The Bar on the corner of every region a fun, friendly, and sometimes cleanish place to hang out. The bar wouldn't be the same without our awesome Spaghetti Monster Wrangling Head janitor.
