I will state, however, there appears to be a conflict between the Organic Law and El Lex. If I appoint S:reu Kit and S:reu Moin to the Cosa, it violates El Lex B.2.3.1.1.3. while at the same time appearing to be consistent with OrgLaw IV Section 3. This puts me in a quandary and I am strongly considering seeking judicial advice on the matter.

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on May 01, 2026, 01:06:08 PMArticle IV, Section 3 of the Organic Law of the Kingdom of Talossa says: "In the case of vacant party seats occurring between elections, the Secretary of State shall inform the King and the leader of whatever party held the vacant seat. The King shall appoint a replacement to each vacancy. If the seat belonged to a party with a functioning party leader, the King must appoint as a replacement whichever person shall be so designated by that party's leader."

Your Majesty, I am hereby designating Tong Mun Kit and Moinul Moin as replacements for these vacant party seats.

If you would do me a favor S:reu Seneschal @Baron Alexandreu Davinescu  and include the number of seats per MC I am appointing so we can do this as legally as possible.

Thank you.

Quote from: King Txec on April 30, 2026, 03:41:25 PMWe should be encouraging people, not limiting based on an arbitrary number like age.

Of course you'd say that, Methuselah

(for legal reasons, this is a joke, Txec is pretty much my age)

-Txec R

One of the things that makes Talossa fun and unique is the fact that new citizens can just jump on in and legislate or do practically anything they want to without worrying that someone is going to say "hey, you're too young." I would not be in favor of disallowing our younger citizens the opportunity to join the Cosa, just like I'm not really in favor of an upper age limit also. We should be encouraging people, not limiting based on an arbitrary number like age.

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on April 27, 2026, 04:28:40 PMHe was quoting Mic'haglh, I believe, who called the current oath an "Orwellian practice."

Yes, I knew that.

-Txec R

Orwellian implies "draconian control by propaganda, surveillance, disinformation, and denial of truth." I fail to see how the current Oath is any of those things. You think OUR oath is "Orwellian" you should check out the United Kingdom's oath.

Quote from: King Txec on April 17, 2026, 03:00:02 PMI have the grant mostly written and it looks like the request from @Moinul Moin  is complete but I'm not sure if @Tåltind Furxheir (Ethan Smith) ever actually accepted his final product. Also, the image generated by @Mic'haglh Autófil, O.Be looks to be too small (it may be cropped).

-Txec R/REH

I am so sorry, I did not mean to forget accepting it, it looks fantastic, I will accept it

Not a problem at all. I just wanted to verify before I awarded you the arms. Enjoy!

-Txec R

I definitely hope you consider regaining your citizenship!

Quote from: Sir Lüc on April 20, 2026, 10:54:51 AMI am excited to report that former citizen @Alexandreu Soleiglhfred has applied for a visitor account, which has promptly been granted to him by the Seneschal. Welcome back, Alex!

For those that came later, or weren't close to him, Alex was a citizen from 2009-2019 and was instrumental in the founding of my old (and only) party, the MRPT. More importantly, he was also pretty active in culture and journalism.

Hope you like it here and perhaps decide to stick around!

Welcome back Alexandreu!

-Txec R/REH

For the College's reference, S:reu Furxheir and I had a conversation over Discord prior to my posting the proposal, he said he liked the arms as they were.

Is the image not coming through correctly for Your Majesty? It's 1000 x 1198, I would hope that would be large enough...

- Foxmouth

Thank you Foxmouth for clarifying. As for the image, it came through perfectly. I saw the word "cropped" in the file name and thought maybe it would be small.

@Baron Alexandreu Davinescu thanks for the help in making sure I didn't miss any future armigers. I also wonder if it might be time to consider reassigning S:reu Barclamiu's project as the Squirrel King of Arms seems to not be around much.

-Txec R/REH

So just to verify - there are two arms to grant. I've got it mostly written up so I don't think I'll need any assistance.

-Txec R/REH

I have the grant mostly written and it looks like the request from @Moinul Moin  is complete but I'm not sure if @Tåltind Furxheir (Ethan Smith) ever actually accepted his final product. Also, the image generated by @Mic'haglh Autófil, O.Be looks to be too small (it may be cropped).

-Txec R/REH

Congratulations to S:reu Lenxheir. It is truly tragic that he left us and I hope one day to see him return.

-Txec R

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on April 17, 2026, 07:08:39 AMCertainly, Your Majesty.  I'll do a quick look around and make sure we didn't miss anything.  Would you like me to ask a herald to help you put the grant together after I do that?

-SVA

That would be great.

-Txec R/REH

Sir Iason, I think we ARE old haha.

Quote from: Carteir Montagnhă on April 13, 2026, 09:46:43 PMhello everyone, lately, i haven't been really active or engaged with any of my fellow Talossans due to personal reasons.

today, i would like to know what has occurred, basically anything, any kind of event, so i can catch up with everybody else.

thank you!

I bet very few people will get the reference, but in the 70's there was a sitcom called "Welcome Back Kotter." The theme song from that show came to my mind on your return, so, "welcome back Carteir!"

- Txec R

Quote from: Mximo Malt on April 16, 2026, 07:23:40 PMY'know, Mr. Montagnhă, I almost axed my citizenship because everyone was calling me a Nazi, but oh well. You do your own research.

It's probably best to avoid over generalizations such as this. In fact, unless it was in private or on Discord, I can't find where anyone called you that particularly loaded term. Words matter, and if I had seen that, I'd have called it out. Sorry you've felt that way.

-Txec R

April 20 is fast approaching as the next Day of Honours. We have a couple future armigers in the works, including one I worked on for S:reu Moin. I would like to award them all but I will need the Coletx to help me determine who is eligible (and maybe help in preparing the grant). From what I can see The Foxmouth Pursuivant @Mic'haglh Autófil, O.Be  prepared a grant also. Anyone else?
