Roll Call. Roll a call. Call a roll. A call rolls. A call to the bullpen—the rollpen. Arolldis Chapman.
Anyways…it’s 12:30 in the morning and I need this to get done. It’s a Roll Call. I think this is the 4th? one I’ve done as Provost. 5th this year if you count that one in February while I was still Deputy. I need sleep.
INFORMATION
This duty is bestowed upon the Provost by the Standing Orders of the Magisterium, which states:
Standing Orders of the Magisterium, Section 5.9
…5.9. The Provost may hold a roll call and require that Magisters respond within 7 days to confirm their activity.
Please include the following information in your Roll Call response post:
Your name
Your TEP resident nation
Your WA status
Your best witticisms
Yes, this is mandatory.
IMPORTANT
This Roll Call will be open for a period of 7 days (168 hours) beginning at 2025-10-15T04:32:00Z and ending at 2025-10-22T04:32:00Z. Magisters who fail to respond will be subject to suspension.

I am Ernest Drake of TEP resident nation “Hemogard”, and my World Assembly status is listed as “EPSA”.
I would never have expected that, over the course of my responsibilities as Deputy Provost, I would be asked about my best witticisms.
This has taken me by surprise. Thus, I can only recite a Spanish proverb: “When you’re really hungry, any bread will do,” as I hope this satisfies the Magisterium; and on such a note, I may return to my paper-scratching.
