We need to replace our Britain. If you would be interested in taking over the helm, please state so here. We will be reviewing our options and will appoint a new UK by the end of today. The new UK will not necessarily be from the people who post here; this is just to get a better scope of who would be interested in such a position.

I don't think he wants it though. I'm pretty sure he's always been averse to taking his homeland.

Except me :P

I think the question that must be asked, is just who all was a contender for the claim for this round? I dunno where that thread would be. And all I recall was Recon and Skylar.

I wish to bid for the UK though. But I think we should wait to see what Recon says...because I think he wouldn't have minded it. but idk.

The UK for me has a strong allure, as I am sure the US does for many Americans here. You grow up in a country, watch the news and read the papers. You learn about your political system and your nations role in the world. For now I can’t be a candidate. I am currently the United States of America and despite been unable to contact Dax for a matter of days that remains.

Tbh there’s no love loss between Matt and me however I have seen him playing the UK and it made me greatly annoyed. The fact that his own brother admits he is lazy and that I know he will treat the UK as joke makes me strongly opposed to Matt been even heard of as a possible UK. Bugs has done a lot as Australia, a nation that would not be chosen by many. Personally I would want someone with a good knowledge of UK politics and won't treat the UK as a joke. If Bugs has the knowledge then I think he is the better choice.

Since Honoko left, I have seen the UK treated as a joke. Handed to players who cared little about it and had no passion for it. Ignorance ruled supreme and frankly it was embarrassing. If there is another player who could treat the UK with the same amount of talent and time as Honoko did then it’s a big thumbs up from me.

It’s a nation with a first class military, nuclear weapons and post recession good economy with the right governance.(get rid of Brown) IT should be one of the first choices in this RP for those players who like to choose powerful nations. Its just not a joke.

Since Dax is back now, Recon, would you be willing to be UK? While there are other candidates, I think you'd do the best job.

Thanks Aramil your faith is very flattering, you know how much I admired your rping as India. However I am an equal partner in the United States with Dax and his return affects that only positively. There is an attraction to taking the UK however I really need to speak to Dax before I can comment any further.

You're very welcome, I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it. I hope you can work things out with Dax.

ANNOUNCEMENT

Upon agreement by all three admins, the United Kingdom is going to be handed over to Goodapollo.

The clear choice was Recon, who does not want to take it. The only other person that expressed interest was Bugs. After the Israel fiasco last round, none of us are comfortable with that. There were a few other contenders, but all of which were reluctant and preferred to stay where they were.

Good day.
