Ashoka the Great Posted May 22, 2010 Report Share Posted May 22, 2010 (edited) [center][img]http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/4151/waver.gif[/img][/center] [size="5"][color="#FF0000"][center]From the Desk of kingzog[/center][/color][/size] Shorlty after my recent appointment as Nordreich's Minister of Foreign Affairs, I moved into the official Ministerial Residence located on KingzogStraße. (Well, that's the street's name as of [i]yesterday[/i], anyway.) Once the furniture was moved in and the wife and kids had settled into a new routine, I organized a small afternoon reception for government officials. Kaiser Nemhauser brought along knockwurst. [center][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/gfgraham/Cybernations/knockwurst.jpg[/IMG][/center] Why Mein Kaiser didn't bring it in a container will remain a mystery, as I was far too weirded out to ask. (To my horror, my middle son called it 'crotchwurst' for the rest of the day. Enjoy military school, my boy.) After the guests had gone home, I stood on the back veranda. Cohiba in one hand and single malt in the other, I was enjoying the sunset when the missus came outside and tapped me on the shoulder. "Honey," she said, "I know you don't like it when I interfere in your work, but this is one of those times when I have to put my foot down. I was out walking by the property line when I realized that we back up against Embassy Row. I don't know how to put this but....some of those buildings look like they're ready to fall over." She's so cute when she tries to talk shop with me. "We don't have Embassies, my little Love Rune," I explained. "Foreign diplomats set up discussion areas which are then used to tell us about their respective alliances. Our citizens use these 'pavilions' to ask questions. Now, in the case of allies, we set up secret areas for ongoing talks. These could be called 'Embassies', I suppose, but they are entirely separate and...." Her frown and crossed arms indicated she didn't care about my explanation. She just wanted me to do something about it. "Alright," I said with a hint of resignation. "I'll go have a look." So off I went. And she was absolutely right. It is my sad duty to inform a number of alliances that their discussion areas have fallen into disrepair. Paint is peeling, windows are cracked and the Ambassadors themselves seem to have run off with the fruit baskets they were presented with upon arrival. Since none of these buildings have 'closed' signs on their doors, I am reluctant to send in the bulldozers just yet. With that in mind, the following alliances are invited to refurbish their discussion areas or face the prospect of having them condemned and razed: [center][b]The International Conservative Politically Allied Countries Viridian Entente Fifth Column Confederation We Are Perth Army [s]Socialist Workers Front[/s] (Disbanded, apparently. Gosh, what a shame.) Ragnarok North Atlantic Treaty Organization SOS Brigade New Sith Order Death Before Dishonor United Commonwealth of Nations Umbrella[/b][/center] Other alliances' discussion areas are starting to show their age, but I'm prepared to give said alliances some time to drop by and fix them up a little. (If you've forgotten our location, I would suggest you click [url="http://cybernations.nordreich.eu/index.php"]here[/url].) Please let us know what you would like us to do, otherwise your property will be attached to my own. (If I get enough space freed up, I'm putting in a pool.) To all of those alliances that do not currently have discussion areas within Nordreich, please consider this an open invitation to pay us a visit. You will be welcome. Sincerely, [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/gfgraham/Cybernations/signature.png[/IMG] [size="3"][b]Nordreich Minister of Foreign Affairs[/b][/size] Edited May 22, 2010 by Ashoka the Great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haflinger Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 I'll have a go at conning someone into going. Maybe I can tell them they'll get a date with Helga.
