TEP, new capital of NS

I'm thinking about doing some pro-TEP arguments that support our region being the new capital of NS. My argument is simple - activity, WA prowess, roleplay activity, smooth efficient government, and other reasons should show us to be the new 'head' of NS. I've written some good RMB stuff, located below. Feel free to write your own arguments too!

The East Pacific is the new capital of NationStates. Let me explain why:

Over the past three months, no region has been as stable as TEP, as strong as TEP, as active as TEP, and as energetic as TEP. We're now the most powerful region when it comes to World Assembly Resolutions - beating all feeders by at least forty votes. We're also the most populated feeder, adding to our activity. Our regional message board is always active, even at four in the morning, and unlike most feeders, where people move away, we actually have people moving *in* to TEP.

Three months ago, we were at about 2,100 nations. Now we're at a little above 2,400 nations - that's a gain of three hundred nations, much more than any other region, feeder or user created. Truly remarkable. Also, we have the most active roleplays outside of Jolt, something that people can't even see unless they visit our forums, also the most active over the past month alone.

So, why move out? No other region can hold a candle to The East Pacific. We're the new capital of NationStates, and we're only going to get better, even if the rest of the game shrinks.

Yes! Everything you said is truth. *EDIT* except for the size comparisons, apparently...

Really though, the capital of NS? Even if you have earned the right to be proud of the new TEP, I don't like being part of a group that teems with supercilious rhetoric. It is part of the reason Lord Rahl was so infuriating. Honestly, how does this bizarre claim help us? All eyes have been on the East Pacific for a while, now. It's quite clear that this is a lively place. I say we dispense with tooting our own horn. Just let the place grow.

Largest feeder, eh?

The East Pacific contains 2,396 nations.
The North Pacific contains 2,459 nations.

Nyah!

Perhaps it's a little extreme, but I think people here have a lot to be proud of. This region's been through a lot, in my opinion, and to go from under the thumbnail of a bunch of empire people to one of the stronger feeders in the game is an admirable accomplishment.

I strongly oppose this. NS doesn't need a capital. And this (probably not the best word) gloating would only turn the other feeders against us. This reminds me too much to the propaganda of the empire. They always gloated about, that they turned TEP into "the gem of the NS world" and that they will turn it to the "leading region". This statement not only tells the others to accept you as supreme leader, but also tells them, that you are superior. We should promote unity, nut this empire stuff.

As always, I will give you an "A" for enthusiasm, Todd.

I think we should be welcoming. Encourage nations to come and visit. Sample our RP. If they like it, they'll stay.

I think it is presumptious to declare ourselves the "new capital" of NS. If people think something is a capital, it will be one. No self-declaration required.

:/ Just trying to make us proud and happy. I won't dress in a cheerleader outfit (without money, that is), but I'll definitely cheer us on.
