Due to errors in the forum transition process, CyberiumShadow is erroneously listed as the author of most of these posts. I am adding disclaimers as best as I can. For best recordkeeping prior to the forum switch, please refer to the Tapatalk thread. Thanks!
I have made several changes to the Magisteriums forum, in an effort to improve and simplify browsing and interacting with our forum.
Changes :
the Laws of The East Pacific subforum has been restructured from a loose list of laws and such, to a subforum containing laws and the Concordat, treaties, resolutions, repealed laws and the archives of legislative debates each in their own proper section;
creation of the Office of the Provost subforum, containing a general thread for announcements, a new application thread, legislative templates, and the records of votes and Magisters;
these changes make the Magisterium’s forum and the topics listed in the main Magisterium forum less cluttered. Upon entering the Magisterium, you see the subfora, the Standing Orders, and the list of topics;
all topics in the main forum have been marked as either [BILLS], [CONCORDAT BILLS], [NOMINATIONS], [MOTIONS] and [DEBATES]; all current Bills and important Motions will always be pinned.
Next up are updating and restoring our records, and fine-tuning our the Laws of the East Pacific subforum.
In order to keep track of debates, bills and other events happening within Magisterium, we have created an Activity Sheet. You are able to see activity of thread, get its link / get vote link, see time frame for votes etc. You can find the sheet here.
...8.4- A Magister shall be suspended upon notice by the Provost or Compliance Officer if their resident TEP nation is not a WA member, which:
.......8.4.1- Invalidates any vote cast by the suspended Magister during the suspension;
.......8.4.2- Shall result in the automatic removal of the Magister if WA membership of their TEP resident nation is not restored within 72 hours of notice;
Magisters Davelands and Funkadelia have been suspended immediately. Unless their TEP resident nations are restored within 72 hours of this notice, their membership will be automatically revoked.
Angel of Charity, Ramaeus, Tetrid and Atlae have been admitted to the Magisterium. Congratulations to the new Magisters.
Davelands and Funkadelia have not restored WA within 72 hours of the October 22nd announcement of suspension. Therefore, their membership has been revoked as of October 25th, 2019.
Pakitsk has been appointed as Arbiter for a 6-month term.
Ramaeus, East Malaysia and McStooley have been appointed as Viziers for a life term.
The records of Magisters and the Magisteriums’ voting records have been updated.
The following Magisters are considered suspended immediately, for being absent for more than two weeks and/or not voting it at least two successive votes, or being on LOA (8.2 of the SOM), until such conditions change :

Magister Meddacah is removed from the Magisterium for having supplied falsified information on his PDF (1). Apparently this nation is also known as Slatos, a non-disclosed identity previously banned from TEP as resident (2).
Under 8.3.1 SOM, the Magister is automatically removed in such circumstances.
…8.3. A Magister will be removed automatically, which shall be published by the Provost, if:
…8.3.1. the Magister is found to have supplied falsified information in their Magister’s Pledge or Public Official Disclosure Form

As of October 25th, 2020 at 16:11 UTC, Magister Rage Mage was suspended, due to lack of participation in the most recent Roll Call. (This was announced in the Magisterium channel on the regional Discord and recorded on the List of Magisters but is being stated here for the sake of transparency and consistency.)
Furthermore, I have received a resignation from Magister Earth Systems Alliance (ESA), effective October 27th, 2020 at 19:23 UTC. I thank ESA for their service to the Magisterium and to the region as a whole.
