I'm baaaaaaaaack!

I am here to reassert my presence not just as a Talossan, but as a Vuodean.  Having just renewed my citizenship, I don't know who else is here...announce yourselves, please, fellow Vuodeans!

I'm still here, not much use but I am here

Er - I have actually assigned you to Maritiimi-Maxhestic, going off the information provided by MinImm in your reimmigration thread. I did double check before issuing your grant, and your stated place of residence does appear to be in Maritiimi-Maxhestic's catchment area.

This is one hell of a grey area, because you previously were a citizen of Talossa, and indeed a citizen of Vuode. Lexhatx E.14 would assign you back to Vuode, but it doesn't apply to you, since you renounced your citizenship rather than have it lapse. If Lexhatx E.7.3.3 was applied, it would allow you to choose between M-M and Vuode, but it's unclear whether the choice can be made by someone who wasn't a citizen at the time of the catchment area alteration.

One thing I missed is that this is all moot since E.7.2. clearly states you are grandfathered in to Vuode. Further complicating matters, I did issue you a ballot for citizens of Maritiimi-Maxhestic, so if the correct province to assign you to was Vuode, you missed out on voting for Vuode's Senate seat. I can only apologise for missing that provision.

Apology accepted, the mistake was understandable and easily made given the complexities of OrgLaw and the minimal amount of lead time between my certification as a citizen and this past election.  My original home address was very firmly in the Greater Talossan Area, roughly the intersection of Oakland Avenue and Locust street.  In the very beginning, of course, Talossa was literally just Ben's bedroom, then his entire house on Prospect Ave.  I may joke about my "deep knowledge" but even w/o the specific text, I knew/dimly recalled that I ought to be grandfathered back into Vuode. 

I remember enountering fellow Old Growther John J. about a decade after graduation, my first contact with any Talossan since then.  He told me about the Cheap Glory, and that my ancestral home was now within the boundaries of Talossa (specifically, Vuode Province).  I (jokingly!) responded "Well, that wasn't very nice of him to swoop in and claim it like that!  I may have to declare war again!"  Ian, bless his soul, is a very serious and often literal man, and his report back to the Regipats of the time sparked a momentary panic!

Not too many months after that, I encountered other Founders at Oakland Gyros, we sat and talked over dinner, and that's when my post-War reconciliation with Ben and the RT took place.

One day the whole truth will come out about how John J. aka Ian Metaira was in the behind-the-scenes discussions with the Republican secessionists in May 2004 :D Of those here, probably only @GV and @mpf would have full-hand knowledge, but that guy was definitely playing both sides
