Wittenberg / Re: Talossan Traits in Stellaris
October 10, 2023, 01:57:10 PM
Haven't played it but have a couple of friends who do.
I think I'll need to have a look to come up with traits but the language can play a role I think.

Quote from: Bentxami Puntmasleu on October 08, 2023, 06:15:34 PMWhen you say "contact a graphic designer" do you mean someone who is good at graphic design, a citizen (or friendly non-citizen) of Talossa, and will design a flyer pro bono? If not, I'm sure we have many fellow citizens, who are talented in graphic design and will lend a hand free of charge. Or, if also not, I'll take care of that on my end, either by finding a sympathetic designer or by paying from my own pocket.

A  friendly non-citizen designer that will design a flyer pro bono!
I have two people in mind, I am writing to them (:

I think maybe we can decide on what information we can put in the flyer as well, that seems like some fun work to do together.




I'm very fan of the fanzine style but the information should come first.

Since I'm thinking of it to be focused on two groups, maybe we can have several flyers (with the same style or so)

The first group I have in mind is the Faculty of Political Science and International Studies (students with a range of age of 18-23)
and the second one is a kind of experimental high pressure trilingual highschool(16-18), both of those are in my University Campus where I work.
Nonetheless I think I'll post them in English.

So I wanted to raise the question of what do fellow talossans think could be the best hook to make these flyers effective?

I'll contact a graphic designer in the next three days, sounds great! If we have more citizens from the GTA that'd certainly invigorate the Kingdom. And yeah I understand that the official student organizacion can be troublesome but just having people joining is great enough, and can make it easier for more talossanity happening in the GTA. Thank you for keeping this thread alive, Bentxami!

That conductor is so incredibly handsome. <3
Coincidentaly, being Venezuelan, he'd be a Maricopan.

@Bentxami Puntmasleu Azul, Bentxami, I saw in the Wiki that you're a student in the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee.
I work in a University in Mexico and I'm designin some flyers to put near the Faculty of Political Science near my work.  @þerxh Sant-Enogat is working to do some online recruiting to expand the Kingdom of Talossa to scholars and University students of the world.
Do you think, living in the Great Talossan Area (The Capital, even!) could maybe help us with this effort?
I'm not sure what can be done but I'm just thinking out loud here, hehe.

Nice edits in the Talossawiki, btw!

If the limitations are set to the Cunstaval instead of the King's appointment, would that work too?

Fellow citizens of Fiôvâ.

In my capacity as Secretary of State, I'm present to you the results of the recent Praisidïeu election, where you, the people, have spoken.

The Praisïdeu for the season is composed by:
    Miestră Schivă.
    Bråneu Excelsio.
    Gödafrieu Valcádac'h.

We express our gratitude to all who participated in this democratic process.
Please remember that your engagement and active involvement are vital not only for the Fiován community, but for the Kingdom of Talossa.

Desfisetz quálse'cosă denă.

Wittenberg / Re: [Media Call] Oatly
September 28, 2023, 02:37:24 PM
I'm very fan of the Brand, actually
At our Café we use Oatly for non-dairy lattes.
It's silky smooth and the only non-dairy milk that can actually do latte art.
If I weren't 1,700 miles away I'd be interested but I really hope someone gets to do it (:

(How did they get found out about The Kingdom?)

Edit: I knew I shared something about Oatly before

Wittenberg / Re: [Campaigning] TNC Stolen Valour

About the Blockade by the FreeDem led government:
In spanish, blockade and boycott have, simply put, the same connotation when the one in charge is the one doing it.

An idea
The TNC you will find is a diverse group. Your political motif and manifesto lie in the fact that you individually stopped the dialogue in a easy going, civilized nice little thread in which both parties were invested?. A thread which I dissected for the general public to see and that I wish to continue.

Putting ideas in people's heads
I'm not a monkey dancing to the organ grinder. You started this thread saying that we took credit for something that we didn't took credit for and then suggested that I was a monkey dancing to the organ grinder because I didn't engage in the next 30 minutes? Nice political maneuver. Very bad choice at cooling down partisan temperature, tho.

The Empty Ministries
When I joined Talossa I witnessed people kind of really angry because they wouldn't get their way at holding cabinet positions while doing nothing at all. I believe you addressed this issue by saying that anyone can drop the ball at anytime and that governments should not let all responsabilities lie in a single person, which I concurr.
Fortunately, even though our Seneschal went through really hard times recently, he was kind enough to let other people step up. I invite everyone to do the same and to please never put Talossa over your well-being.

My feelings right now
And "in the spirit of transparency", I got to confess that I'm not that confident anymore to ask people in other parties to join my Dream Cabinet because I can picture them waiting for the right time to post about it trying to "embarass me" or something. Honestly, I also believe this is just a byproduct of election season but nonetheless it has made an impact in me. I'm working in not letting those kind of things get to me.


And finally
Individual proposals by TNC members are not the TNC proposals for next Cosa.  My intentions are honest and I wouldn't let power get in the way of letting all my fellow talossans speak their minds, but don't accuse me of anything for not showing up to the party in the first 30 minutes. I could say other things but, unlikely as it may look, I am willing to let it all go because this conversation is not leading Talossa into a better place.

Love and peace and respect.
Bråneu.

Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN on September 26, 2023, 03:12:10 PMTake credit for others' achievements.
It'd be good if you can provide information about how many Talossan ID's got delivered in the 57th Cosa because S:reu Autófil kind of blocked the production once he wasn't in office and we never knew how many were sent/delivered. We had to do the design from scratch and design all of them again. We looked for printers and they weren't top notch so we made them again. Finally, we got them done and they were sent to Talossan citizens.

I'm not saying this is a partisan blockade in the way the FreeDems are known for, but the incumbent TNC cabinet got the ball rolling again. It might have been your idea, and we appreciate your efforts; we can pinpoint how many were printed this Cosa and as we all can see, they're arriving to their respective owners these days. It was never stated that the TNC came up with the idea, come on.

Short answer, you're right, it wasn't our initiative but we didn't drop it because it's good and fun :) We managed to be transparent about the IDs and we intend on doing it again :)


Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN on September 26, 2023, 03:12:10 PMI suppose "partial credit". The social media is good. And if you mean talossan.com, the TNC government actively lost that one!
This is a sensitive issue worth discussing, a lot of these problems could have been avoided if the solutions (again) weren't relying in citizens who are actively ignoring our requests to solve the issues. I'm not saying this is a partisan blockade so we would look like we didn't try but we tried and we have solutions to amend that. Also, I think this specific issue about if should Talossan.com still be up or should it be transformed into something else is an ongoing necessity of the Kingdom. I wouldn't weaponise this issue.


Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN on September 26, 2023, 03:12:10 PMSadly, Bråneu still has to answer to what his party colleagues do in his name.
I'm doing that. Just had to make a cup of coffee first.

Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN on September 26, 2023, 03:12:10 PM

Of course we're scared.
What would the FreeDems do in power?
You refused to achieve a Compromise because "you didn't need to", so you obviously don't need us.


WHEREAS "Don't go back to another five years of Free Democrats in power" may not fully represent our feelings,
THEREFORE, let it be amended to read
"Let us never go back to another Cosa of empty ministries and Government blockades".

An interesting article I discovered that mentions Talossa. (Cleveland Scene is a free weekly newspaper from Cleveland (duh). I imagine this article saw print in it at one time. (Tracking down a copy for the Talossan Archives might be difficult, people tend not to hang on to these things.))

I love the Molossian leader's bobblehead.
It would be cool to have a collection of bobbleheads of Talossan historical figures. Of course, I am still pushing the idea of a pantheon of sorts...
How do you picture a pantheon for Talossan historical figures? Sounds interesting.
