Hello everyone! I have been appointed as Minister of Culture, a position I have been interested in throughout my period as Secretary of Culture.
Anyways, here are my plans for the upcoming term:
Timezone-specific secretaries
Similar to Silva’s term, I will hire two secretaries that will work tirelessly with me so that we can ensure the ministry will thrive. However, I will make sure that every secretary has a specific time zone so that they can host events in their time with no problems respectively. Being a secretary taught me a lot about politics in the South Pacific, and it was the reason I was confident in my abilities of becoming MoC in the first place, and I want to make other people experience the same thing. I think secretaries will bring a lot of people into politics, while not having the same responsibility as an actual cabinet member would have, and they would have more freedom to experiment and learn along the way.
New events and competitions
My secretaries and I will get one event for each time zone every week (GMT, EST, and AEST). I think that hosting events in every time zone will make it fair for everyone that wants to participate, as they can just participate in the events hosted in their time zone. My team will host game nights, trivias and competitions so that we can ensure everyone has a great time in the South Pacific.
Awards
In my term, I will create a awards system in which residents will earn awards and badges for certain achievements. These awards can be given out to winners of competitions and events. I will also hand out these awards based on statistics like “most liked RMB post of the month” (just an example) or something along those lines. Awards can include:
- Choose the regional poll for the day
- Host one of our weekly events
- Custom made badges
And much more!
These rewards will encourage people to participate in events, as well as just bring activity to the region itself.
My plans for Knowhere
Some context: For those of you that do not know; me, Silva and No One created a canon which will operate in the RMB of the Knowhere region, and the nationstates website itself.
My first plan for the canon is to expand on the roleplay, add NPN’s (non playable nations), and give players a base platform to RP on. My second plan will be to advertise it as much as I can in the RMB and discord. As Knowhere grows in size, I will start hosting events and competitions for RPers such as “featured Knowhere articles” or featured nations. If the map starts filling up with people, I might expand on the map further to allow more people to join. I will also moderate the region with the canon managers to ensure that there is no godmodding, to make it fair for everyone RPing in the canon.
Thank you to Lordnwahs for entrusting me in this role and giving me this opportunity.
