Might you be willing to clarify for King Txec and Miestra as you have added the title to my profile,  I think? That is why I stated I am the Opposition Leader. I think it has to do with the current No votes. Crement voted for the government, ahem, which is certainly not matching with my vote (mentioning that obvious fact for those desperate to tie us politically at the hip.)

Thanks. One issue with reading the latest posts is we don't see the sidebar which lists each person's position.

Yes, sorry, this went unannounced but I remarked elsewhere I had only marked Crement Itravilatx as "provisional LOTO" prior to the Clark beginning because of his standing as the leader of the largest party not in Government. Once he and Garth Spencer both voted Üc, Tzaracomprada became "official LOTO" by virtue of holding 7 "Non" seats vs Muhammad Yasir's 3 "Non" seats.

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on October 12, 2026, 08:53:08 PM@Crement Itravilatx As a preliminary measure to demonstrate good intent I have, across Talossa, withdrawn from several political or societal entry points. That includes active legislation for the Second Clark. This means you are now the primary sponsor but please feel free to also withdraw if you don't want to carry it forward.

Yes I will be the primary sponsor.

Azul S:reu Itravilatx,

Is the main reason for updating this law assigning specific ministers or other government officials?

Thanks

At least she came out and admitted it. She receives points for honesty. But you are still here.

Please accept this message as notification of my resignation from the Society. I can't be affiliated with an academy that treats qualified applicants with disrespect and disdain and allows politics to influence its decisions.

If I may return to the main topic, I strongly suggest the Society add to its bylaws some provisions dealing with lapsing membership for non-contributing members. Especially since a large amount of those non-contributing members did not even produce a single piece of scholarly work when joining the Royal Society, let alone since then. Quoting the Seneschal in 2020(!):

QuoteAnyway, from what I can see, very few of the members of the Royal Society have been measuring up to the requirements of their positions.  Fellows and Senior Fellows (including the President) are expected to deliver annual lectures to the Society that pertain to their scholarly interest.  I can name perhaps one or two Fellows who have done this in any reasonable form.  Fellows are also expected to produce a twice-yearly symposium, but I am not aware of one.

I also strongly suggest that the ridiculous and self-aggrandizing post-nominal "vote" be stricken off the face of the Earth.

Nobody else returned the poll since my last message, so it indeed seems like we're going with that time and date.

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on October 12, 2026, 06:41:42 PMresign from the legislature for one term, and then take a course we selected on how to avoid avoid harassing others and the importance of consent... we would be prepared to consider this as evidence of an attempt at good character, and you would no longer be considered ineligible for public appointments or positions of trust.

@Mic'haglh Autófil, O.Be will have the final call of "signing on" as party leader, but if this is the gist, then I will recommend that he do so.

I was under the impression that this would be the outcome if Breneir fulfills the conditions set for him, yes. While I don't think our word is what's questionable here, I am comfortable signing off on it and making that outcome explicit. The onus for reconciliation remains, as it ever has, on Breneir.

I assure you at this time there is no desire for reconciliation. It is just time that this situation be ended for the Kingdom. I will post the certificate after course completion tomorrow and then submit my Ziu resignation to the Secretary of State. Once that is complete I would appreciate you all signing the statement.
