*Region (Me) *7 Wonders update (Me) *An update on the House of Chatter perhaps (someone who frequents it, so that rules me out)? *Selected Opinion (Anyone) *UN Voting (AN)

About the selected opinion, EM intended for the MoFA (or MOFO ) to create a question, and let anyone post or PM what he or she thinks about it.

I knew that, I just wanted to see if anyone wanted to give their opinion about anything at all...from the dissolution to the USSR to the superiority of third-person narrative to how much their silk bedsheets score points with the ladies. I thought it'd be better that way.
Also, I'm glad to see that me and Metzy aren't the only ones who enjoy MOFO.

Hopefully we will use its full name on the official posts. Though I do enjoy the abbreviation.

Okay, sorry for the lateness, but here it is...

There has been a decline in activity in Hyrule. There is less recruiting, more nations are dying off, and posts are more infrequent. However, cabinet elections have just taken place and there has been a small spike in forum posting in the last few days. ===
[IMG]http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/2236/forumscz1.png[/IMG]
[b][u]Roleplaying[/u][/b] After a long while of relative inactivity, the RP forum has exploded in the past few days, with many active topics.
[b]Seven Wonders[/b] Hyruleans have decided that it is time for a new list of wonders. Thus, each country has nominated 2-4 structures for the New Seven Wonders list. So far, there have been 34 nominations in all, and a vote will soon bring that number down to twenty.
[b]Terror in Hyrule[/b] A terrorist organization has recently launched a missile that hit one of Hyrule's biggest nations, Clamparapa. The missile killed hundreds of thousands as a standoff became almost violent. The attack forced nations to accept alliances with former rivals. The terrorists were struck a blow by this coalition but they're not quite out of the fight yet...
[b]Futbol![/b] Hyrule has created the UHFA, the United Hyrulian Football Association. It has started off with a kick as member Porcu created a schedule, roster, trade market and Table Standings for all 64 teams. Many members are participating, each controlling 4 teams each. It will only be a matter of time until we begin to chant for our teams and create Rivalries as everyone is trying to advance in the tables! ===

[b][u]June 2007 Election[/u][/b] It was time for Hyruleans to vote for their new leaders, and these elections had many tight races.
[b]Minister of Immigration:[/b] Porcu won 5 votes to 1 over Skydiving Penguin with 1 abstention
[b]Minister of Foreign Affairs:[/b] Macarono won uncontested with 5 votes and 2 votes for none of the above
[b]Minister of Civilization:[/b] Constantine won the tiebreaker over Atlantico Norte 4 to 3 with 1 abstention The first round was a tie between them 4 to 4 with Macarono getting 2 votes and having 2 abstentions

In this, our 25th update, we are interviewing Mr. Minister of Civilization himself, Constantine. Constantine, aka Clamps, controls the nations of Clamparapa and Hytland. He is a very active forum member, regularly posting in the RP and House of Chatter sections.
Macarono: So, Constantine, how long have you been here in Hyrule? [b]Constantine: About 6 months.[/b]
M: Why Constantine? [b]C: I picked Constantine because I believe that he was a very influential Emperor of Rome. He brought Christianity to the Empire and I believe that is a great thing for him to have done.[/b]
M: Which is a better name: Istanbul or Constantinople? [b]C: I think Constantinople is a better name because it has the name of Constantine in it.[/b]
M: Thank you, after the interview I shall have you sign a petition that demands Turkey rename the city Constantinople. Moving on...
M: Did you see the movie with Keanu Reeves? [b]C: Actually, I have not seen that movie. I have heard that it was not a movie worth seeing though.[/b]
M: Why is he such a bad actor? [b]C: To be honest I liked his acting in Speed. I haven't really seen any of his other movies, so I can't be a critic.[/b]
M: Could you do better than him? [b]C: I think I actually could, and I have been in plays. But that's just my opinion and not anyone else's.[/b]
M: Okay, I see this is difficult for you, let's move on. Have you ever read the Harry Potter series of books? [b]C: I did read them but I never really did like them. I was more into Lord of the Rings and Star Wars and I still am.[/b]
M: Do you think my theory that Hermione is really Harry's long-lost brother will come true in Book 7? [b]C: she is.[/b]
M: Take a stance. [b]C: As a Christian I have different morals than other people. I do not believe in evolution and I believe that there is a God who created us. I am a strong believer and hate it when people try to take Christianity out of the world because they think it's bad. I never tried to take away what they believed in, so, why should they do it?[/b]
M: Thank you for being so candidly honest with us. Now, on a serious note...
M: What's your least favorite Eddie Murphy film? [b]C: I never really liked Doctor Doolittle. I'm not into the whole real-animals-talking thing and I've never really liked movies with that in it.[/b]
M: Identify the turning point for the Allies in WWII, and explain in detail how this event turned the tide of the War. [b]C: I believe the turning point in WWII was the mistake bombing of London by the Germans. If they had not done that, they would have destroyed Britain's Air Force and paved the way for their invasion. Because of the Germans' failure, they fought on two fronts, dividing their forces. They also failed to eliminate Britain and the island was the main staging point for the Allies' invasion of France on D-Day, which was the beginning of the end.[/b]
M: You sound like such an expert. Personally, I think it was the terrible execution of Operation Barbarossa, but let's not get into that. Instead, we're going to play a little 'Would you Rather' right now.
M:Luke or Han? [b]C: Han because he is a smuggler.[/b]
M: Gandalf the Grey or Gandalf the White? [b]C: Gandalf the White because he kicks orc butt.[/b]
M: Pol Pot or Idi Amin? [b]C: Pol Pot because he was a not-well-known dictator, which is very hard to be.[/b]
M: Okay, now let's move onto women. [i]*Cues the bow-chicka-bow-wow*[/i]
M: Maggie Thatcher or Joan of Arc? [b]C: Joan of Arc because she died for what she believed in.[/b]
M: Susan B. Anthony or Pocahontas? [b]C: Pocahontas because she is a native.[/b]
M: And we will close with perhaps the greatest philosophical question ever...
M: Godfather I or II? [b]C: Godfather I because it is the original.[/b]
M: Thank you for your time. ===

[b]Ness:[/b] “I wish I lived in Canada, Right now I live in Mexico” [b][i]Constantine:[/i][/b] “Really? I thought you lived in Philly” [b]Ness:[/b] “I do actually. I just said that for…I don’t know why. :P”
[b]Krits:[/b] “I mean, everyone knows that both sexes are perfectly equal…they act the same they look the same, in fact, there are no sexes at all, its all imagined!” [i][b]Dark Archon:[/b][/i] “then Krits....does that mean.....*screams* no no no no!!!!! *pukes...passes out*” [b] Skydiving Penguins:[/b] “okay. This hurts my head. If you squeeze vegetables to get vegetable oil, then what do you squeeze to get baby oil?” ===
Well, that's it for this update! Hope you enjoyed it!

Its a good idea so Macarono knows that its out. I checked to make sure it was posted in all regions, and I posted it in the ones that didn't get it. GB&I has an ambassador, but the other regions don't.
