Ladies and gentlemen of the Assembly,

Vote Beepee for MoRA

I stand before you today asking you to "vote for the bee!" (again)... this time I'd like to have your vote for MoRA.

Our beloved Panda/PS2 has done an incredible job as MoRA (I will not hear a single bad word said against him) over the past few months but has informed us he's not likely to run again. I'd like to try and live up to his highest of standards.

For me, MoRA has four main actions:

1. promote activity,
2. integrate new players,
3. organise events, and
4. communicate the South Pacific’s activities.

In my opinion, none of these things stand alone, and each tie in with the other, and this forms the basis of my campaign today.

Integration (Action 1, 2, 3 and 4)
From my time on the RMB, I'm comfortable at welcoming new nations and guiding them to and through the forums, to give them an understanding and overview of what the benefits of being legislator are, the various areas of the onsite and offsite forums, etc.

Welcoming new WA members, and promoting SWAN, encourages more nations to join WA.

I think Pandas '12hour welcome reminder ' is excellent at promoting a positive, engaged TSP face and I would seek to keep this going.

Further, Promoting discussion, raises awareness of WA matters and can assist in feedback.

Working with the LC and the Delegate will be important to ensure gameside is included and integrated within the wider offsite structure. Putting on events which cut across platforms and can promte activity and potentially lead nations crossing those platform divides.

Dispatch Organisation (Actions 1, 2 and 4)
Having a clear set of dispatches which inform and clarify the scary big world of TSP is important. USoV (and others) has done great work on updating the information within our dispatch catalogue. I'd like this to carry on and assist to make our catalogue more user friendly, more accessible and easy to navigate.

I'd like to get feedback from our LC/Delgate on ways to support their needs in terms of welcoming and integrating further.

Journalism (Actions 1, 2, 3 and 4)
We have a number of wonderful news organisations and I'd like to bring this back to the fore as a way of communicating across platforms; utilising the best of our silly and serious sides to entertain and inform our citizens of the goings on across the region.

The Coconut Press is a great way of brining out some of the long form talent within our great region.

SJ, SlowNews, quicknews, etc, have all in the past been important vehicles for communication of our Coalition and Regional goals and culture.

As a result, I'd like to try and organise a serious news brief to be issued semi-regulaly, say monthly or bimonthly, and a far more frequent MoRA bulletin service perhaps incorporating cabinet interviews, AMAs, legislative updates, and gameside news. Which can be turned around quickly, say weekly or biweekly and with a few days notice.

Cultural Events (Actions 1, 2 and 3)
As stated above, I'd like to work with the LC and Delegate to promote events across gameside, forumside and discordside. Also using the gameside vehicle as a way to promote cross-platform interaction, for example through events, such as games, AMAs, cultural dates etc, which can transcend platforms. These not only entertain but can also promote activity and integration across formats and can be lead by others to promote a sense of growth and ownership within in the region.

In order to assist my campaign and to consider the work necessary for an organised and successful campaign, I have drafted an outline proposal to set up the key elements.

Naturally, this timeline would be subject to significant change and can only be implemented in disucssion and conjunction with the rest of the Cabinet.

Further, obviously, these matters can't be done alone, and there is a good team of MoRA there, who I would seek to assist, lead, etc on key points/events, etc. However, I would need to ensure that there is an expanded, but solid group of talented individuals who can assist in many of the larger and smaller projects and seeking to pull in non-forum talent as a way of building up our base and creating further integration. This would mean actively seeking help from within our TSP family to aid and carry forward our work.

In conclusion, I would be delighted to receive your vote for MoRA and, if elected, will work tirelessly for the benefit of all TSP.

If my serious side hasn't swayed you, perhaps my fun side will.... please see my Campaign Dispatch

I'm happy to take your questions.
I, Beepee, in line with the requirements of the Elections Act, hereby truthfully declare the following information and conflicts of interest:

My WA and main Nation is Beepee, which has resided in TSP since I joined NS.

Outside TSP
I am a current TSP ambassador to the North Pacific, and I am therefore upon their forums, discord and have a puppet nation located there. I am also a former TSP ambassador to LCRUA, so am on their discord (although no longer active).

I am an admin for a sports playing RP region with gameside rights.

Given the above, I believe I have no known conflicts of interest which would affect my ability to run for MoRA of TSP. Should any of the above raise concern, please ask
Great campaign!

You're known to be a primarily mobile user, and while you seem to be incredibly adept at that, some things are simply better/easier on a computer. What sort of computer access do you expect to have during your term, and how much do you expect a lack of it will hinder what you do?
Although mobile is the way to go...I do have a computer (I just prefer mobile)... shouldn't hinder me too much.

Thanks Roav!
Well, perfect then!

Best of luck to you. Yours was the first MoRA campaign to be posted and you set the bar quite high. Smile
This campaign is really good! Hello adversary :o you have really set a good standard for what we other RA candidates will need to put out.

You obviously have a really firm grasp of the office and what it entails, it excites me to see that and I want to start by saying that if you win I won’t be at all worried about RA’s future under your command! My questions are as follows:

What is RA to you?

Outside of continuing the great work PS has done in the office, what major goals do you have for expanding the content RA is putting out and how do you plan to push RA even further into its role as the face of TSP to TSPers?

Do you yourself have any specific ideas/plans for including the average legislator into MoRA activities and making the Ministry have more of a presence for those that don’t work in it directly?
I just realized after reading serres's campaign that their opponent was beepee ;-;
Why couldn't we have one obvious winning candidate >~< It would make voting so much easier ;-;
Anyway, delighted to see you running again beepee ^~^

Awe popps! Thanks.

I'm sorry I keep making your decisions tough. Wink

Whilst it makes your decision really hard, i think having strong candidates like Serres, IoU (if he submits) and myself , who all believe in how wonderful TSP is, is great and makes MoRA even better because it pushes us to be the best we can be.

Vive la MoRA!

Hi Serres...... best of luck to you!

Thanks for your awesome questions.

What is RA to me?
RA is life! I love RA! *cheers loudly* Bringing people together and to and across TSP, keeping them informed and entertained. Regional Affairs is hugely important to making sure we all keep TSP great. It's my favourite part of NS.

Pushing RA into the faces of our TSP! Deffo. Have you seen the RMB! Wink PS/Panda has done great work. A solid foundation. People love the RA, rightly so....

what do we need to do... well you'll have seen my plan (above), it's a teaser!

we need to more journalism... bringing that in does a lot for communication, culture, salesintegration. We need more communication (e.g. AMAs, weekly updates etc, But coordinated and organised) and a multitude of events. But getting those who are RMB only or forumside only over to do stuff on both sides will be a big push if I'm elected. We have such great talent and if that's not getting to and from game/ forumside, means we're somewhat missing out.

Do I have plans for legislators? Do I ever! Being a legislator brings civic responsibilities.... brace yourselves!

It's a big Ministry with a wide ranging portfolio. If elected, I'm going to pull in whole lot of legislators for all kinds of tasks, events, writing, cheerleading, etc, etc! (Being a great cheerleader is massively important, I have the pompoms on order.)

It's actually really important to do and to try and keep interest up, because if people are engaged and have some experience they're more likely to stick around and try and do more.

You already know I'm everywhere, RMB, forum, discord, RP... there's no escaping Beepee.

And.... See All of those coloured blobs in my plan.... *hehehe* I'm going to try and get everyone involved somewhere.

You will submit to your life to MoRA! Devil (but only if you want to Angel and you do want to! )

Good answers!

Just never forget that MoRA is the most important Ministry in the region and you'll do fine! Now let us do battle with words my great adversary! I challenge you to a debate if you'll have it. The time and date can be decided later, for now, do you accept?
