On Site Agenda
RMB Mayor
One idea that I’ve had for quite a while is to have the RMB be able to elect someone to do polls. The core of this idea is to bring back LC elections without bringing back the LC. The RMB Mayor will be the one to create the polls (through proxy by me or Henn), and that shall be their sole responsibility. Ideally, there will be multiple RMB Mayor elections over the course of the term. I love elections, and I know most other people do too. Elections with a solid tangible position, but without any risk of failure to fulfill responsibility.
Contests
Over the course of this term I’d like to hold a contest or two. I think these would be great to line up with regional holidays, given we have three regional holidays this term. One thing I’ve had my eyes set on for a contest is the regional banner. It’d basically be a flag contest without the constraints of it being a flag; I bet we’d see a lot of great designs that wouldn’t work as flags. Additionally, the regional banner is quite prominent, but without any of the symbolism of the flag, nor any legislation on it. It’s the perfect place to put a contest winner!
Other contest ideas I have that potentially could be run are: a return of the culinary contest, a contest of factbooks detailing cool national sites/buildings/monuments of people’s nations, or a contest of creating the best themed collection of a small number of common cards. Not all of these will be run, these are just potential possibilities of contests. If anyone else has contest ideas I’d me more than happy to help run them as well.
Off Site Agenda
VCs
I personally love VCs, and plan to initiate them throughout the term. But I don’t want just VCs, on top of normal VCs I plan to have scheduled event VCs. Jackbox, party games, discord activities, etc.
Resident Spotlights
I plan on doing resident spotlights. I like them and think they’re a great way to acknowledge our fellow TSPers. I don’t really know what more to say on this topic, I plan on doing more resident spotlights.
Continuations of the Previous Administration
During the past administration, Pronoun started a cartography project of Government Island, which was not finished. During my time as MoC I plan on continuing that project. Additionally, Henn started the South Pacific Hockey League (SPHL) last term, and I’d like to finally get around to organizing and scheduling with Henn a few nights to actually hold the matches. Both of these two things I have been fairly involved in
Regional Holidays
During this term there are three regional holidays:
- June 2nd is Coalition Day, celebrating the creation of the Charter, Government, and the Coalition
- July 17th is Defender Day, celebrating the day the South Pacific officially became a defender region
- July 20th is Independence Day, celebrating our freedom and independence, marking the end of UCR control over the South Pacific
For these regional holidays I plan on holding events for them. In previous administrations, there has been a disappointing lack of attention to them, and I’d like to change that for this term. While I don’t currently have any solidly written plans, I’d like to have a contest with a strong TSP theme of some sort, or a trivia night for Coalition Day, and for Defender Day and Independence Day, given their close proximity, lends to a combined event, which ideally serves to promote the SPSF and defending. Existing contest ideas could be scheduled over these events, as they serve as a great time to hold them.
Potential Conflicts of Interest
I’m giving this CoI statement because even though it’s not legally required (we probably should make it required) I think it’s great for transparency.
-
Citizen & Legislator of TSP, Member of the SPSF, former MoRP
-
Citizen and former Delegate of Wintreath
-
Citizen of tPoP
-
High Command of the Trident Alliance (N-day faction)
Should the tPoP citizenship cause any CoIs I’ll resign it without hesitation, I’m just there to vibe. Wintreath shouldn’t have any CoIs given it doesn’t come with any obligations and Wintreath isn’t engaged in NSGP, r/d, or anything like that. The Trident Alliance command position shouldn’t cause any CoIs either given there’s no N-day this term.
