Commend Anime A resolution to recognize outstanding contribution by a nation or region.
Category: Commendation | Nominee: Anime | Proposed by: me
The World Assembly,
KNOWING the existence of the region Anime, one of the oldest in NationStates;
PRAISING the region for its all inclusive nature, uniting nations of all political leanings, religion and race under a shared love/hobby;
IMPRESSED at the collection of otakus, maids, catgirls, samurais, ninjas, mechas, school girls, magic users and space-travellers who dwell together in (relative) peace, except when they try to talk about what is the best anime, manga, or cosplay;
UNDERSTANDING the region is founded by Hayao Miyazaki, and was at one time the home region of the likes of Haruhi, Rurouni Kenshin, Ruri Hoshino, Chiyo-chan and others;
NOTING that invaders thrice attempted to invade the region but were mauled by lightsaber wielding Catgirls in sailor outfits;
APPRECIATES the educational and entertainment value of Anime's Civil Headquarters with foreign words like DESU, nyaa, chan, kawaii, gaoh, fuwa fuwa, so da ne, and Pipiru-piru-piru-pipiru-pi appearing on a regular basis;
BELIEVING that a region named after such an awesome hobby, must therefore be full of WIN;
HEREBY Commends Anime.

It's awesome, and rule compliant.. But that's the problem with it AD. I stated I will vote against any SC resolution, and I won't make an exception for this resolution. As much as I'd like see it pass..

I thought rule 4 applies mostly to nations. You *can* distinguish between RP and gameplay aspects of a nation (the player behind the nation, or 'the nation'). For regions, it's very difficult to distinguish between the parts. Since by the game itself, all regions are 'game play' to a certain degree.
The term "NationStates" would make it illegal if the name were used as a reference to an online game, but a legal WA resolution adopted before the SC was created refers to "the entire NationStates community" and "we as NationStates" in the sense of, well, nation-states.
So, I'm going to say your usage of 'NationStates' is illegal. But I could be wrong.
