Rush Sykes Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 So, to fulfill an outstanding debt, I am here to finally finish the last gift delivery , albeit very late, of Santa Rush for Christmas 2014. Kashmir - While nobody will confuse these guys with any of the power-players behind CN politics, nearly everyone is profoundly aware of who they are. Possessing one of the brightest creative and political minds in CN history (SirWilliam), these guys have been a refreshing change since they arrived on the scene. Many alliances have strove to be "new and different." Nobody, save these guys, have successfully accomplished it. Whether it is ticking off central members of the previous power sphere by sticking to their guns and sharing all official discourse with their entire membership, making cute elephant signatures that I personally consider homage to me (even though they are not) or simply just celebrating the fact that they are indeed different, they have achieved a status based on principle without forging the official bonds that all alliances immediately set out to forge. Most of their membership, save the esteemed SirWilliam, who will always hold legendary status within C&G gov channels, have been largely unfamiliar to me. As such, I have watched and observed for the past several months. They have a few luminaries, Margrave and Master Hakai for instance who actually do a very good job of representing and defending both what Kashmir is intended to be and what it actually is (and both are pretty damn close to the same thing.) To me, they appear to be a group of people that basically decided and acted on the philosophy that we all agree on (that this game is broken and continuing to play it the way we play it breaks it further.) I doubted, and I told SirWilliam as much, that paperless could be successful long term. He was right, I was wrong. Anyone who knows me knows that is not an easy admission for me. These guys SHOULD serve as a model to the community that trying something truly new should at least be given a chance. Sadly this community, and myself included, probably lacks the drive and energy to trailblaze, and their existence will remain as both testament to what they have set out to do, and trolling the rest of us for our lack of courage to be different. Margrave, I hope you find this suitable and worthy of what you expected from me. Until next Christmas, Santa Rush bids you all adieu.

Sigrun Vapneir Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Ahh so it was this year, after all. And yeah, Kashmir are mad decent, and it would be a better world if more people were willing to step out of line and do things a little differently.

Margrave Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 I will roll Margrave Maybe. That would be the first time anyone in MI6 has done anything interesting since they were mid/high level government in some alliance from long ago, so that would be something to write home about!
