Recommendations to the New Delegate

First, I will not run in delegate elections should the current delegate be found guilty and the court recommends new elections. That's my choice, and I think it would be better served if we have a new face at the post anyway. However, as organizer of this Improvement Drive, I believe we've found a few programs integral to the delegacy that the new delegate should strongly consider. These programs are tools that can be used to make TEP a fun and exciting place and cater to a strong four-month term.

The Flag Design contest, Pollster Program, and World Factbook Entry Design / Suggestion threads have been rather successful in their implementation and have provided users the ability to show off their regional spirit. Frankly, I am amazed at how talented the flags have been and I hope this program is continued.

The Table-Setter program has been successful thus far as well, though since we're in a bit of a nebulous period I've held off advancing this program. Should you, the delegate, choose to continue this program, I would offer my services to help in maintaining this program and utilizing it for establishing alliances. I highly recommend giving it a chance, especially with the new people who showed interest. I would love to discuss it with you, whoever you may be, and see it through to fruition.

Programs such as the mentoring program and embassy updates are just beginning their frameworks. My goal is to get these programs up and running so that they are a tool for you to use at your service.

With that, I conclude the bulk of the Improvement Drive. There are a few lingering programs that should be started or finished, but all in all I'd consider this drive an enormous success.

And, finally, good work all. This drive has given me a renewed sense of vigor and activity in the game, and I thank you all personally for showing me that the game still matters quite a bit to me.
