Mmmmk.
I will post in the Senate tonight, don't really need to wait Crom.
I am really excited about the self sustaining dialogue. Don't want to squelch any of that.
500 Galactica is great for a ball.
Rodia can automatically be assumed as part of the Republic as canon allows, glad to have a rep.
Major, we don't have the infrastructure to support your "I'm bored, found fight me" assertion. If you attack as part of the GE, that defeats the purpose of a Cold War. But if you want to set up an RP with specifics and goals (where, when, space battle? Ground battles etc.) I really don't know how to write those. I don't find them sexy, enticing or entertaining-- but I concede it is part of the universe we operate in and a burden of government when claiming to uphold the general welfare and security of a population.

Major, I am going to start recons on Imperial worlds, how about that kind of an engagement?
plus, if I am both writing out an assault on a shipyard on yaga minor, could need some rebels on that, and maybe an enemy or a friendly in the sacking of nal hutta.

And is the Imperial Remnant revived? Is it separate as a writing group here in JvS then the GE?
and how does Serreno seceding help. . .anything? Does it have a strong writer base there? If you want to wrote for yourself that's fine. But this is supposed to be a site for collaborative RP harkening to the old pen and paper games the DnD was born out of. The seperate embassies is an interesting dynamic that could foster some interesting conflict, if anyone is interested.

No, Corulag is existing as it's own beast right now. I have no idea if overtures to the greater galactic empire will be made. For now Corulag is technically a Republic world as I have said, we haven't begun the revolution, we are just fanning flames and I figured I would maintain contact with you guys since Corulag is a Core World and would no doubt be the subject of some discussion if nothing else. Before we made the switch and several months ago I posted a similar message to Republic writers, this is not a new thing The Major, you could attack Corulag? I mean its a Republic world at the moment… maybe my character could contact your character and the greater empire and provide you with tactical and strategic information on the Republic defenses? I would limit you to a hit and fade attack, but it would do a lot for my character as his imperial troops would fight alongside the Republic (more efficiently and effectively) to defend the world. Thoughts?

Though the Imperial Remnant still has it's own usergroup, it has been folded into the Empire. We're just tiding up the errant threads.

If you want to wrote for yourself that's fine. But this is supposed to be a site for collaborative RP harkening to the old pen and paper games the DnD was born out of. The seperate embassies is an interesting dynamic that could foster some interesting conflict, if anyone is interested. I will answer with another question. When does secession ever help at all? To which I maintain my point. It is supposed to exacerbate tensions while at the same time create some opportunities for back stabbing and double dealing. The role of the neutral planets is to play both sides against the middle without letting either side catch on to it. To offer no aid to either side while not hampering them as well. This makes it interesting because the GR and the GE will try to sway/borrow/ bargain/ negotiate/ bully/ threaten these neutral planets to their particular side. Therein, lies the potential RP. With the GR stance against dark siders, will they overlook a tyrannic leader to get the vast affluence and resources to aid the GR to fight the growing advance of the GE? Or will the GE use fear and camaraderie of the dark side to unify against the GR? So many good questions. As for writers, I had more but they seemed to fizzle. For now it is just me and another in the capital. Ronin is the last of the Dark Jedi Order and is attempting to revive it.

And Nase, I haven't been meaning to be dismissive about the Corulag RP. If you needed anything specific for it on our end, let me know.
(Something that people haven't been really understaing about my RP/writing style is that I am not very creative on my own; I have a very hard time thinking of new storylines of my own. But if I am given the point, the goal and objective, I can bring a solid character for you to interact/tangle with).
And Crom, I set the stage for you to bring your allegations against Mahir. Have we heard from him?
If not, then perhaps Rawkill can be self righteous and stand for his crimes as an agent of the Order and the authority of the High Council. If need be and if he is willing.

If need be, Rawkill can step up if Mahir isn't heard from soon. I'll just need a day or two to read up on what happened, and will be set to go.

Oi, if someone doesn't post saying the new motion, accusing Mahir specifically, as he's the only Jedi still on the boards who participated on Ryloth, then I'll post the motion tomorrow.

I must say though, Cihl, I don't understand your shooting down the motion. The motion was to review the tactics, not the JO itself. It was an interesting way to try to skirt Crom'nen though. Oh, and Fortis, I LOVED your response. I'm looking forward to more interaction with your character as time goes on. I'll get a post up as soon as possible, but I just worked a week of 12 hour days so.... it may not be fast.

Has Rodia even had an RP presence to make that assertion?
it will take forever and get buried in this RP, but if that's what you want. Figured I would streamline you into the discussion as mentioned above.
and discussions are for bills and resolutions on the Senate floor; not general chit chats about how we don't like the JO. I thought it would also be an interesting start to pull Cihlbar in and paint him bias.

After review of the motion, it doesn't make sense. That "discussion of tactics" is better served in the military committee. Wasn't trying to be a dick about it, I tried to figure out a way to RP making a different motion, but it didn't work out; but it is a perfect place to but in. You can even RP bringing Mahir into the Rotunda, to move things along.

We have preferred to remain under the radar in 1.5 but we know we cannot hold the planet this way. It was in hopes of bringing new players that we have decided to join the republic now.

Though I am going to be honest, until we get to issues that aren't the JO, the waters will be rough. I am working on a post upcoming to either request Crom'nen to recuse himself due to a conflict of interest that Crom'nen just illustrated in his most recent post, or a motion to bar the delegation from Ryloth from examining in the hearing should it end up Crom'nen is taking the lead in the examination during this hearing. Granted, I am just spit balling ideas on my end, so I could leave the posts as useless saved copies within my notepad's databank location. Speaking of which, excuse me while i grumble at my software for synchronizing every five seconds when I am connected to the internet

Rough waters are most of the entertainment for political RP. Heck, that's what my character is. He's kind of the villain within. Like Borsk Fey'la. I've often described Crom'nen as the Heroic Bad Guy. He usually does the right thing, but always for the wrong reasons.
You could certainly argue that Crom'nen has a conflict of interest... like Queen Amidala did in The Phantom Menace. That's why Crom'nen asked for an informal hearing. It's a little less strict on the rules.

I might agree with you when Queen Amidala is calling for Chancellor Valorum to face a vote of no confidence... but you have to think on some lever that she is being manipulated by senator Palpatine at that point, notes of a "kind suggestion" planted in her head to start the ball rolling to put himself into motion towards death star 1...
however the real sticking point that gets me to ask Crom'nen to recuse himself was Crom'nen's own speech (which I misread the first time around... but moving forward) saying that "the citizens are more likely to form a lynch mob than an impartial jury" makes me beg the question "Crom'nen was on Ryloth the duration of the attack(if I remember this correctly from 1.5, the archive is down)... and thus has his ultimate endpoint in mind(blinding flash of obvious) and can attempt to steer the conversation so that Mahir is indicted."
but like I was saying, the ideas I have of asking Crom'nen to Recuse himself are in case Crom'nen is leading the questioning in Mahir. as much as I am being brash and moving in my direction so far, for all intents and purposes Onwa Fortis is a freshman senator. He won't be completely brazen, unless I feel the need to give him such lines to get the points across that I need to make during the hearing.
By the way in your last post, 4th paragraph, last sentence, then, not they...
