Quote from: Bråneu Excelsio, UrN on Today at 04:33:05 PMI'll start nominating songs from bands from my city.

Nice to have you participate again!!

(Only we are starting with 3 songs per person for now. There will be room for a 4th pick or more if there are still spots left on saturday. So I will only count the first three, unless you want to drop one of these for now.)

Great work @Glüc !
Thank you for keeping the tradition alive.


I'll start nominating songs from bands from my city.

Plastilina Mosh - "Let U Know".

Jumbo - "Siento que" (I feel that...")


Migajas (crumbs)(Mee-gah-has) - "Solitario" (Lonely)

Migajas - Huesos (Bones)


The thing about Migajas is that I found that band in a reddit group about bands from Monterrey and I really really liked Migajas. Later I found that that the videos from that band are all made by students of mine. It's weird but cool being a fan of stuff made by old students of yours.
Migajas has a very sad sound as and I love that lol.

Tagging some frequent contributors who may or may not be interested in nominating songs again

(Of course I'm forgetting people and new participants are very much welcome too.)

Earlier today, I informed party members within the party's Discord that I am resigning as leader of the Green Party effective once a new leader is selected. In a separate motion, I have invited party members to determine interest in a new leader. I will not be standing in that contest, nor will I make any endorsements or effort to influence the race, and I will be leaving the party at the end of this Cosa.

It has been a genuine honor to serve as your leader and I am deeply grateful for your loyalty during admittedly difficult times. But it is now time for the party to chart a new path forward.

Once a new leader is elected I will request that the moderator settings be updated.

We are a few years away from our fiftieth anniversary as a country.  Very few nations of our size make it to such a point, and I think we should try to think ahead and plan something big for that event (26 Dec 2029).

I call for His Majesty to establish a Royal Commission on the subject, intended to span the time up until that point.  I believe His Grace should chair the commission himself, if he is so willing, since it's a perfect role for our term-spanning head of state.  I hope that other party leaders of good character are willing to join or delegate others to the commission.

@King Txec , what do you think?

Great idea. I'll give it some thought as to how best to structure a Royal Commission.

I had written an update, but then I accidentally clicked something and then upsettingly, it was gone, so you get the short version:

There was a sprint. Kooij won, Kanter came second. Veistroffer was solo in front of the peloton for most of the day. De Lie already abandoned in stage 3.

GHST scored the most points. Menceis remain in the lead.

Standings after stage 5:

@King Txec , what do you think?

It was pretty simple. As I recall, the only reason we stopped playing is because my buddy got a Dune board game he really wanted to do.

One thing I really liked about Carcassone was that it felt like you ended up making a work of art with the tiles by the end of the game. Just very nice to look at, in the way that I didn't I feel like Catan was.
