Hello everyone! I'm Shy Guy (Shy Guyia on NS and discord) and I'm running for Blue Canaria North. I joined this region back in 2014, but I feel asleep in 2015. I hanged around in some random smaller UCRs, let my nation CTE a bunch of times, before returning in 2018. Since 2018 most of my time has been spent on TITO.
I've honestly planned to run for awhile, but never got around to it due to time constraints. Due to the world being locked down I figured that I would run since I got nothing better to do this summer.
Emissary Reports...
There has been proposals over in the council chamber about the duties of the BCN senator. Even without any changes to the duty, I believe that the emissary report has loads of potential improvements. It isn't a tradition that should be abolished, it just needs modernization. Due to the more widespread publication through the NSGP forum, we need to improve the format in style and content. Now that we don't need to spend time converting code between different forums, we should spend that time on getting a good format. The style is outdated and does not use enough code to make the text interesting to read.
The contents of the report is okay as it gets the job done, but I think there is room for major improvements. It shouldn't just a bulletin list of a hyperlink to some event since most outside reader wouldn't even able to access the link, due to them not having a forum account. Instead, the report should be a summary of imporant annoucements and informations from both the government and all around the islands. The report also shouldn't include everything, some things aren't even worth the mention. There should be written descriptions, like at least a couple of sentences.
...and the council stuff
My best experience with the council is kicking up a few ideas over the years, most importantly the discussion about Himes West (of course, the bulk of that proposal was made by Louis and Kuriko). Since It's kinda impossible to work on everything during one term, so I will probably narrow it down to working with government transparency, but if I got any good ideas on my own I will post them.
If elected, I will adhere to Paffnia's transparency pledge, including the amendement.
Feel free to ask some questions, since I think most of the things mentioned under "and the council stuff" is kinda vague and I need some clarity.
EDIT: Since HumanSanity requested it: I'm currently a citizen of the Rejected Realms and will abstain on anything regarding TRR due to a obvious conflict of interest, and vice versa in TRR voting (even if it isn't required over there).
