I, Frank Merritt, ruler of the Armed Republic of Dirtyfrank, hereby propose that in order for a bill to pass, it must receive at least an 85% approval rating before going into effect. I have spoken to the leader of Sydia and they have agreed to back me on this......

It strikes us as highly unlikely that Sydia, the author of a successfully passed resolution, would endorse a proposal that is blatantly in violation of game mechanics. As most folks know (from reading the FAQ and stickies), game-mechanics-altering proposals are considered cause for revocation of UN status.

Nice knowing ya, Frank.

my apologies.....I received a telegram from Sydia saying i should voice my opinion on the bill i proposed in the forums. I must have misunderstood what he meant, as he also said i had his backing.

Did you telegram me asking for tips on how to 'enter' a UN resolution (or words to that effect), and I replied that the best way to make sure a proposal reaches quorum is by ironing it out by posting on the UN forum?

*looks through TGs*

Ah! You wanted me to vote against Habeus Corpus, to which I responded that I vote with the majority of the region, so the best way to make sure the delegate votes the way you want is to post a persuasive argument to sway the majority. I was refering to the regional forums here, chalk it up to a lack of clarity on my part I suppose.

I have absolutely no idea where the 85% thing comes from.
