Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on December 03, 2025, 06:47:57 PMThis is a list of things that need doing.  Please feel free to add to it with your own suggestions. Some of these are just for people in charge of various things, and others anyone can do. If you feel like you want to contribute, please do so!

---

* Update the wiki Citizen's Portal, which hasn't been edited or updated for more than a decade.
* Update the wiki Manual of Style, which is also more than a decade old.
* Get TalossaWare available again by updating Printify vendors.  (Do we want a new service, or keep the easy one?)
* Update the main menu and government templates, since the government's been rearranged a bit.
* Post a reminder on the wiki and on the website interface about how it's illegal to delete any item public record, but also figure out if that law needs to be updated since it seems crazy.
* Figure out what to do about l'Chronica -- what versions get read and how much?
* Get a report on social media use... do we still need Twitter even now?  How can we simplify?
* Refresh the main page design.
* Create a policy for the wiki about political campaigning.

I'm somewhat ignorant on the "how" but would it be plausible to get assistance from an AI tool to read Witt and then suggest changes to some of these pages? (of course subject to actual editing by respirating mammals...)

G4
3 - Plastic Bertrand - Ça plane pour moi
2 - Kraftwerk - Tour de France

I find this aspect enlightening
Of the publicly cast votes https://database.talossa.com/elections/november-2025-general-elections/results/public

14 Progressive Alliance (14 on Wittenberg, 0 Database)
 7 Uniun dels Reformistaes Livereschti (3 Wittenberg, 4 Database)
 6 Green Party (3 Wittenberg, 4 Database)
 4 Present (2 Wittenberg, 2 Database)
 2 In Defensa Traditionis (1 Wittenberg, 1 Database)

Congratulations Cézembreans!
According to the tally of percentages at
https://database.talossa.com/elections/november-2025-general-elections/results
There was 92.31% participation from Cézembre which was the highest provincial participation rate.

Quote from: Glüc on November 12, 2025, 05:44:57 PMApologies for the delay. Because of several delays Im not sure we'll be able to finish everything before the elections (I will post finals very soon), but if we do I guess the first step would be to increase the number of groups, so we'll do three this time.

2025 Talossan Music Top 20 Special Edition: Songs in French

Many thanks to everyone who nominated songs. Of course, people who did not are still very welcome to participate.

Give your top three songs 3, 2, and 1 points, respectively. You must give points to exactly three songs.

Voting will last 96 hours (4 days) or until there are at least three voters. The top two songs from each group advance to the Final.

GROUP 1
Stromae - Formidable
Pascal Obispo - Superflu
Stromae - Alors on danse
Gjon's Tears - Tout l'univers
Serge Gainsbourg - Vu de l'extérieur



GROUP 2
France Gall - Ella elle l'a
Christine and the Queens - Christine
Jacques Brel - Le moribond
Stromae - Papaoutai
Angèle ft. Roméo Elvis - Tout Oublier

GROUP 3
Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Complainte pour Ste-Cathérine
Indila - Love Story
Noir Désir - Le vent nous portera
Noir Désir - L'homme pressé
Desireless - Voyage Voyage





Tiebreakers:
- Number of voters giving 3 points
- Number of voters giving 2 points
- 24-hour tiebreaker round
- Random chance

Tactical voting refers to either giving more points than you normally would to a song because it would make the difference between it going through or getting eliminated, or giving fewer points than you normally would to a song because it might kick a song you like even more out of the competition. This is hard to prevent, but my very strong request would be to not do it. Give points to the songs you believe deserve to go through, regardless of how others are voting. Doing otherwise reduces the value of votes that came before you, which is unfair to them. Remember that it's not a competition between voters, but a collective effort to make a nice list of songs we like. Thanks.

I did my best with all the links but there is always a chance some are broken or have a wrong version or bad audio quality. If a link is broken or you have a suggestion for a better link, please contact me or post the link in the thread. Officially, we are not voting on the YouTube link, but on the listed Artist + Title.

COMMENTARY ON THE PROGRESS OF THE GAME, THE RULES, WHAT SONGS YOU LIKE, ETC., IS VERY WELCOME.

Are you still doing anything with that?

I did pickup some suitable paper to print on, but that's as far as I have gotten.

I will be helping out with https://whaaat.io/ leading up to Oct 25 then afterwards can take a look again - maybe there are others that would like a Cézembre homestead?  Any Talossan may request one within zone interdite.

Looking for an acknowledgement, however should this be Túischac'h or MinFin?

There seems to be a misunderstanding here. As Seneschal I am entitled to deputize for any minister. *I* am doing the acknowledging, issuing the notice as required by the budget legislation. Pay the nice man, Pol.

Looking forward to the discussion.  During the time frame leading up to it, I have been in the original location of the protagonist, and also read another series of seven books ( thus far) that has echoes of the initial duress, and also has a 4 letter name for the main character.

We shifted to chess.com as lichess said "We're temporarily back but might have to be offline soon, sorry!"
