I wonder if we could use my okonomiyaki recipe as a Talaviachi recipe? If not, I think we should adopt musubi as a cultural food.

This bill has been rewritten as a Sense of the Ziu, because there does not seem to be any time for the CRL to get a proper look at it before the deadline for the First Clark; but there should be something worth discussing and voting for on on the First Clark. Depending on feedback, a new version may be submitted to the CRL in October.

Hello, yes. Please to be Clarking Sense of the Ziu: No More Loyalty Parades.

WHEREAS Organic Law V.4 guarantees Talossans the right to vote publicly rather than in a secret ballot;

AND WHEREAS public voting which is announced during the election has various negative effects, such as encouraging "copy-paste" voting and a "bandwagon" effect, both of which put parties whose voters prefer the secret ballot at a disadvantage, thus discriminating against them under Organic Law V.4;

AND WHEREAS the existing database already enables votes to be made public after the election, which removes these negative effects;


BE IT RESOLVED THAT IT IS THE SENSE OF THE ZIU that "public" votes should only be revealed after the election, so that they cannot be copy-pasted, and that they should not have an outsized effect on the election; and that the Chancery should report to the Ziu on options to make this effective.

I would strongly caution against 3, but would welcome 2 and would suggest 1 be tweaked so that the outgoing Túischac'h be allowed to perform every statutory function after Dissolution until a new incumbent is in place (so CRL, Chancery oversight and so on).

Quote from: Sir Lüc on Today at 05:09:19 AMI will now be opening the Call for Bills as time is running low - I had been holding off on doing so because we don't have a new Túischac'h, Mençei and A-X to form a new CRL, but time is running low

This keeps happening. There is simply never enough time after the official announcement of results (15th of the month) and the First Clark (1st of the next month) to elect Chairs of the Houses and to organise the State Opening of the Cosă.

Ways around this might include:
1) authorizing the Túischac'h to be elected before the 15th;
2) accelerate the Electoral Commission's certification of elections;
3) bringing in a provision that the First Clark can't happen until a Túischac'h is elected, which might delay the First Clark by a month

Yes, absolutely, and welcome aboard! I will add you to our private forum.

El Ziu/The Ziu / [CHANCERY] Call for Bills for ...
Last post by Sir Lüc - Today at 05:10:39 AM
The call for bills for the October 2026 Clark (the first of the 63rd Cosă) is now open. You may post a link to a bill's Hopper thread underneath in the usual fashion, provided it has passed the Hopper according to Lex.H.2 and you are entitled to Clark bills.

I will accept for Clarking any such bills (except for any that fall foul of H.2.7) that are presented between now and September 30th 11:59 PM TDT, as I will begin assembling the Clark on the European morning of October 1st.

Anyway, that's all 200 seats assigned.

I will now be opening the Call for Bills as time is running low - I had been holding off on doing so because we don't have a new Túischac'h, Mençei and A-X to form a new CRL, but time is running low and the former CRL, sans Sir Marcel who Organically ceased to be the Túischac'h upon Dissolution, is still legally empowered to scrutinise bills.
