Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on <strong>Today</strong> at 07:48:24 AMWhew, I gotta tell you that you're really putting me to work with my Talossan.  I'm impressed.
That's a good thing :)

Non laßa-me
Non laßa-me soleu, v'amor,
non laßa-me.

¿Qet façarhéu cadascu morgun sanc dtu?

Tu isch l'alegrançă de vaes ziuăs,
oxhi non serà noastra fim;
cün dtu seréu toctziuă;
sanc dtu mortadréu unciatim

¡Non va, v'amor, non va!
non laßa-me aicì,
schi tu non isch cün me,
¿qet put-éu façar?

The Nation Celebrates the Maricopa Brewers' Pennant


For the first time in forty-four years, Talossa's national baseball team is going to the World Series. Last night in Los Angeles, the Maricopa Brewers -- known abroad, for reasons of foreign confusion, as the Milwaukee Brewers -- came back from four runs down to beat the Dodgers.  The Brewers have never won a World Series.  Our country, which has won every war it ever fought (all one of them), knows something about improbable records.  I see no reason this year should be any different.  So wear your blue and gold, catch the games wherever you are, and post your predictions, superstitions, and box scores on Wittenberg.  Go Brewers, and Sà viva el Regeu!

Signed,
Seneschal Alexandreu Davinescu, Baron Davinescu del Vilátx Fréiric

The Nation Celebrates Publicity Day

On 16 October 1984, the Milwaukee Sentinel ran "He's Eastern monarch -- East Side, that is," the first article about Talossa ever to appear in the foreign press, and 40,000 Milwaukeeans woke up to discover they were living in a foreign country.  The man who arranged it was Dan Laurieir -- the same Dan Laurieir who, three years earlier, had won our first election on a promise to abolish the place.  Within a year of that article, Talossa had new citizens, new political parties, an opposition newspaper, and an elected Cosa. Publicity made Talossa bigger than one bedroom.

Forty-two years later, the value of publicity remains, even though the form is very different!  So today, tell one person.  Share a Wittenberg thread you're proud of, send a friend the link to talossa.com, post about us somewhere new, or just mention at dinner that you're a citizen of a kingdom on Milwaukee's East Side and see what happens.  Heck, maybe you want to have one of our new maps printed and put it up somewhere.  Our fiftieth birthday is three years out, but I'd like to arrive there with even more company!

Signed,
Seneschal Alexandreu Davinescu, Baron Davinescu del Vilátx Fréiric

I don't think there will be time for a further SMF update before we move to Discourse, but once we do, there will likely be a running thread for news and updates.

Again, it was not necessary to create a fresh account. I will delete the old one then.

Edit: Deleted the old account and merged it into the new one.

I did an initial layout that included our Antarctic territory, but even shrunk down dramatically, it still required a significant amount of notes to even explain what the featureless blue wedge was supposed to communicate.
