I find the various activity feeds I'm seeing highly amusing (The State of The World began crafting something using Blueprint Common and Patriotic Flag Common. The attempt to craft something with Blueprint Common and Patriotic Flag Common was unsuccessful. One Blueprint Common was lost, etc). I'm just picturing a dazed and confused looking person (perhaps the leader of a nation) dressed in generic business wear, jacket off and sleeves rolled up, stumbling around in a shady back room somewhere trying to attach these random items together with their hands and being totally nonplussed when it doesn't work out. When one of the items is lost, they let out a mildly disappointed 'uh' before moving on to the next thing.

I would have enjoyed...

1. 'The attempt to craft something with Fashion Show Runway Uncommon and Wizard's Wand Uncommon was unsuccessful. Several Propeller Airplanes Uncommon were lost.'

2. 'Wonder: Lawmaker's Assembly 'The attempt to craft something with Hoard of Ancient Coins Rare and Five Star Destination Resort Rare was successful. All Knowledge Resource was lost. Your bribe will remain safely undetected.'

3. 'The attempt to craft something with Stone Pickaxe Common and Keg of Beer Common was unsuccessful. All resources were lost.'

I didn't get to the more complex things but I did enjoy thinking about the finest engineers, scientists and craftsmen all tumbling down a step ladder - only for the project manager to inform the parliament that "We're sorry, everyone... the attempt to combine a patriotic flag with a cozy hut was once again unsuccessful."

I'm happy to say that this turned out the most wonderous wonder of the Arctics, taking the 122nd place worldwide of over 4000 entries. Congratulations to Blaenavon! And good game to Norse Inuit Union, The Arctics and myself.

Maas 🤣 Woah! No way! Brilliant! Obviously the upvotes weren't the biggest factor then 🥳🎉! Good game all. Edit: Hey, great write up. I didn't realise there was (or more accurately didn't give enough thought to looking for) a complete ranking of the wonders somewhere. I assume the list has gone now?

Blaenavon wrote:I assume the list has gone now?

It's still up here: page=wonders but they wiped the images less than a day after the end, so it's just a boring read now.

As per autumn referendums, it's now time for regional government election season once again!

Just to remind everyone: the prime minister position is not too much effort, application is open to both WA and non-WA members, 6-month term, regional Governor remains unchanged.

Anyone interested in applying for the position should either post their intention here on the regional message board or send a telegram to The Ice Bears or Maas. Make your candidacy known by 21 April at latest if interested. Election week will hopefully be 22-28 April.

i just set a religion for glorious Kaiser Reich

Regional election now up as a poll.

Voting open to all residents, in case of a tie the WA votes will decide. Listed below are the platforms of the "two candidates". Yes, this is at least partially an attempt to create the illusion of democracy.

I'm thinking of a mild regional government reform, finalizing the constitution, creating some more Arctic symbols (medals maybe), more polls, etc. No promises but hopefully the summer will be slow enough.

As we are now. We will still have a flag contest and cooperate on events, no worries.

Next election will take place in October 2024.
