  A further directive for the Cour: it seems our chamber has been quite evenly split between supporters of Pro Imperio et Civitate and A Gilded Tomorrow. To forestall disunity in the event of our good Emperor's incapacitation, I move we appoint Princely Grandmaster Ildey as Designated Regent. He is a skilled and loyal servant of the crown, and in my eyes there is no better arbiter for the position.

   Galindo runs in just befoe the voting session ends, very sweaty." I have a message from House Shabibid, who are currently dealing with a rug fire in one of their weaving houses.  I submit a Directive to establish our Kingdom's Motto - Et Tamen, Hierusalem Praestat. The Cour parliamentarian is also free to use either the Latin or the Outremeran translation.

   The Thermidor Triumvirate, lead by Jakob atop Sweetpea, makes their way to the voting dias. Our new Empire is vast, and we do much travel and battle within and out of it. Sieges and long rides are boring affairs. Even worse, the food can often be too bland or hard to handle. Our soldiers, sailors, and travellers need a food that is easy to eat on the go. That is why the Thermidors are introducing:  By drilling a hole in a loaf of bread and filling it with various delights we can make a simple meal that is both easy to eat, but delicious as well. Thermidor will begin setting up shops around the empire and within our military fortifications for quick and easy access to one of our latest creations, Gaurkogia. And don't be concerned, we are still working and improving Carobba. As for our vote, We put both of our votes towards the JRO. As an expert in the art of siege, improving our defenses when a great threat is at multiple borders just makes sense. As for Directives: Doge Mikail be made Spymaster: AYE! The greatest sneak of our time must be given the power to use it. The King's Census: AYE! Worked for Caeser. Reach out to Prestor John and the Eastern Christians: AYE! I wonder what their food is like? Appoint Prince Centule to Second Advisor: ABSTAIN! Princely Grandmaster Ildey as Designated Regent: AYE! The taker of Greece probably knows a great many things which could help our Empire prosper. Establish our Kingdom's Motto: AYE! Listen, I'm just doing this for my fellow merchant, OK!? Counties Dominions and Duchies Great Dominions: NAY! Why would I, someone with neither of each, care about either of these? Throw these hogwash names away. And as for the Presentation of our New Empire: Flag - Ralepozozaxe's Flag: AYE! Obviously voting for the flag I had commisioned, even if the wierdly named hag who made it may have cast a curse on me. Imperial Title - Magnus Princeps/Principissa: AYE The greatest among our princes and princesses must not forget that they are still a member of our realm, and our working together will get us through our hardships. Address - Elective Majesty: AYE They are ELECTED, and should be reminded as such. I will Abstain on the Empire Name options for now, as I must still decide among them. Ever other directives in these sections of course gets a NAY!

 Three votes to the Catholic Reformation, and one to the Jerusalem Readiness Ordinance. Infrastructure is vital, and the one true faith needs unity and support more now than ever before. Directives: Doge Mikail as Spymaster, Aye. Good enough. Realm Census, Aye, as befits an Empire. Reach out to Prester John, Aye, we need all the help we can get. Appoint Prince Centule of Alexandria as Advisor, Aye, good enough. Appoint Grandmaster Ildey of the Knights of Krete as Designated Regent, Aye, good enough. Empire Motto - "Et Tamen, Hierusalem Praestat", Nay, this foolishness is still a waste of a directive. Rename Counties and Duchies, Nay, call them what you like but only five directives are enacted and there are actual beneficial things to do. The Flag of the Empire, Nay, neither of these make for good heraldry. The Name of the Empire, Nay, none of those speak to who we are. The Title of the Emperor, Nay, 'Emperor'. What's wrong with Emperor, anyone? The Form of Address, Nay, If he or she wants to change it, then let them, this is tithing mustard and cress. Appoint Regnal Names, Nay, their actual names will be more useful.

  Doge Ali of the Red Sea Republic speaks: Three votes to Catholic Reformation, and three to the Jerusalem Readiness Ordinance. As a recent convert to the faith, acceptance of some doctrinal difference seems to be the best way to keep the faith alive. Besides this, spending on protecting the realm seems prudent, these barbarians coming in here scares me witless. I would like to continue to trade with them, but they are at our doorstep... Directives: Doge Mikail as Spymaster, Aye. Mikail is a good man, and will ensure that any plots (including the suspected one against my life!) are properly rooted out. Realm Census, Aye, gathering of information for administering the empire is good and just. Reach out to Prester John, Aye, we need all the help we can get. Appoint Prince Centule of Alexandria as Advisor, Aye. Appoint Grandmaster Ildey of the Knights of Krete as Designated Regent, Aye. Empire Motto - "Et Tamen, Hierusalem Praestat", Nay Rename Counties and Duchies, Nay The Flag of the Empire, The Flag of the Crook reflects our empire best. The Name of the Empire, Sacrum Status Medialis is my choice. The Title of the Emperor, Nay. The Form of Address, Nay. Appoint Regnal Names, Nay.

JOSSELIN Ahem. Before I cast my own votes, I just wanted to take a step back and appreciate all of the hard work the Haute Cour has done these past few years, especially these past few weeks. We have all quarreled at some point - even myself, if you recall:  But let bygones be bygones! I am glad to see that when the world is going dark and the candles of catholicism have been snuffed out over Europe, we yet still stand tall and shining out into the darkness, together. In the spirit of brotherhood, I am splitting my votes to two each in support for the three policies at hand. Directives: Doge Mikail as Spymaster, Aye. Realm Census, Aye. Reach out to Prester John, Aye. Appoint Prince Centule of Alexandria as Advisor, Aye. Appoint Grandmaster Ildey of the Knights of Krete as Designated Regent, Aye. Empire Motto - "Et Tamen, Hierusalem Praestat", Nay. Rename Counties and Duchies, Nay. The Flag of the Empire, Nay, I think we can do better here. The Name of the Empire, Abstain The Title of the Emperor, Aye to Emperor/Empress Preferent, it just seems cool. The Form of Address, Abstain Appoint Regnal Names, Nay

Got a bunch of messages from people requesting this, so I've gone ahead and decided that for this session only, I'll consider the Empire Name, Empire Title, Imperial Flag and Imperial Address directives separate from the rest. As long as one proposal within those categories has a positive Aye/Nay ratio, then it'll be accepted. So there are 2 groups of directives now - Normal Directives posted:Appoint Doge Mikail of the Nile as Spymaster - Empire Directives posted:The Flag of the Empire hashashash fucked around with this message at 08:03 on May 14, 2020 |

  A runner appears at the speaker's podium in the Haute Cour, wearing copious amounts of armour and the colours of the newly elevated House of ben Asher I, Michael ben Asher, head of the House of ben Asher and of the ben Asher Security Company (bASC), home to the best in home defence, would like to thank the members of the Cour for appointing me as the Duke of the newly incorporated Aden territories of the Empire. It is an honour to be able to ensure the safety not just of my family, but of my people, and protect this important part of the coastline. However, such defence does require certain oversight, and as such I am unable to attend the Cour. In my stead, I have sent this message. On the matters of court, they are as follows: I provide two votes each to the Jerusalem's Readiness Ordnance of 1120 (10 years) and the Jerusalem Administrative Title Reform Act of 1220 seeing as how the remaining law is internal matters of Christendom and honestly I don't want to get the blame if we end up with another PopeWar. On the matters of Directives I Support the following: Appoint Doge Mikail of the Nile as Spymaster Realm Census Princely Grandmaster Ildey as Designated Regent Establish our Kingdom's Motto I Abstain from all others. As for the design of our new empire, I Support The flag designed by House Thermidor, The Title Emperor/Empress Preferent And that they be addressed as "His/Her Elective Majesty." The messenger quickly scurries off, stepping very carefully and avoiding certain tiles.

 Count Yijian d'Cathay of Amman Behold, ye wretches, the baby. It has finished its sweets. Its mouth is empty. Now, there is nothing to distract it from its utter contempt for the chamber. It begins to scream and wail, consumed by a ferocious anger toward every other living thing. None will be saved from its fury. The haggard regent casts the votes as the wailing continues. "Count Yijian d'Cathay of Amman will spend all three of his votes on The Catholic Reformation. On directives, he wishes to support": Appoint Doge Mikail of the Nile as Spymaster Realm Census Reach out to Prester John Princely Grandmaster Ildey as Designated Regent Establish our Kingdom's Motto "He Abstains from all others." "As for the design of our new empire..." the Regent casts a forlorn look to his carefully sewn flag, which now sits in a crumpled heap near the back of the chambers. No one, not even his friends, dare to go near it. He chokes down a sob. "Count d'Cathay supports:" The Middle Kingdom Emperor Preferent or Empress Preferent His/Her Elective Majesty

I like to thank my merchant colleague for submitting my directive on my behalf. A quick explanation. We may be an empire, yes. We may also change the title, flag, or address of our empire. But our heart and head shall always be in the holy city of Jerusalem. We have been good custodians of this city for over a hundred years, and shall be here a hundred years hence. Our motto reflects this fact, and will be proof that will stand against any foe who would break us. Three votes to the Catholic Reformation Directives: Doge Mikail as Spymaster, Aye. Realm Census, Aye Reach out to Prester John, Nay Appoint Prince Centule of Alexandria as Advisor, Aye Appoint Grandmaster Ildey of the Knights of Krete as Designated Regent, Aye Empire Motto - "Et Tamen, Hierusalem Praestat", Aye I abstain on any change in title or address.

~OOC ZONE~ Quick Update on Imperial Directive Voting: For simplicity and so I don't go mad tallying stuff I've shifted all votes of NAY on any change in a category to an 'AYE' for no change, and am not going to tally NAY votes against specific proposals when they accompany an AYE vote in that category. (Unless y'all really yell at me a bunch in Discord or something). Since the idea is the flag/title/etc. with the most support passes, we should really only need to compare AYEs and can dispense with having to NAY every other thing. Sorry for not bringing this up earlier and sparing a ton of you a lot of typing. I realize I'm somewhat contradicting Hashim's declaration of Hashim posted:As long as one proposal within those categories has a positive Aye/Nay ratio, then it'll be accepted. but I think it probably makes sense if a commanding plurality of voters want no change we, wouldn't change things. (and this would be the case if I counted all the blanket NAYs as Nays anyway, I guess) Mirdini fucked around with this message at 18:31 on May 14, 2020 |

Mathieu looks somewhat buoyant at the unexpected support for his proposed name for the Empire, and casts his votes with only a mild level of nervousness for once. Six votes to the second edition of the JATRA. Directives: AYE to Appoint Doge Mikail of the Nile as Spymaster - The man is eminently qualified, and I look forward to working with him. AYE to a Realm Census - what better way to secure our Empire than to know it inside and out? AYE to Reach Out to Prester John - any ally we can get against the threat the Mongols pose is a vital help. AYE to Appoint Prince Centule of Alexandria as Advisor - having suggested this myself, I believe my vote here should be self-explanatory. AYE to Appoint Grandmaster Ildey of the Knights of Krete as Designated Regent - see my prior vote. NAY to creating the Empire Motto - "Et Tamen, Hierusalem Praestat" - while it does have a certain je ne sais quoi, my house still thinks For the Love of God would be a better choice. NAY on Renaming Counties and Duchies - I'm sorry Edvard, but this hardly qualifies as important in this session, and I quite like the ring of 'duchy'. Imperial Directives: The Flag of the Empire: The Shepherd The Name of the Empire: Sacrum Status Medialis The Title of the Emperor: Emperor Preferent or Empress Preferent The Form of Address: AYE Appoint Regnal Names: NAY

  Patrician Simon of Merchant House Konopka A robed figure addresses the Cour, his face is one of the ugliest you have ever seen. His manner is boorish and he lacks even the basic manners expected of a noble or merchant. He places a small crate containing several dozen pouches on the floor in front of himself. "Greetings to all of you, even the hideous man-babies and homicidal geese. Before I speak about all the laws and junk, I hope you will permit me to do some advertising. You oughta, because that's mostly what these Gilded types do when they speak in the Cour anyways. So funny story, right, a distant niece was in Damietta visiting and she brought her baby with her. Normal sized baby, thank God, but man was it unhappy. Cried every minute of every day, driving me insane. So I think "hey, babies like pretty things, have the servants give it some flowers, maybe it'll shut up for a bit". I send out Richard, the idiot Englishman in my court and he comes back with the ugliest things you've ever seen, the moron went to the storehouse and found some hemp that'd started flowering before it was harvested. Fun fact: Konopka is like, Polish for hemp, great-great-great-great-something or other grandpa owned a little rope business in the east before we moved out to France, or west-Mongolia as they call it now, and backed the right duke in the Crusades. Anyways, so the brat gets these ugly little flowers and, of course, starts eating them. Typical baby poo poo, right? BUT, here's the crazy thing, it calms him down. Kid gets a lot more chilled out." "So I try one myself, tastes awful. But we mix it with a little honey, some mint, roll it into a little ball and wrap it in paper to keep the bugs out and you've got Konopka's very own Hemp Capsules for Pain. Perfect for teething babes, headaches, phantom limbs, wandering wombs and gout. I got a few dozen pouches of them in this crate, meet me after the session and I'll hook you up." "Huh? Oh, the law stuff. Uh, let's put both of my two (2) votes for The Catholic Reformation idea. At this point we don't really need the Pope, hell, we're bigger than Jesus. As for the normal directives, I'm gonna say: " AYE to Appoint Doge Mikail of the Nile as Spymaster "Yeah sure, why not." AYE to Realm Census "When was the last time there was a big important census in Palestine, anyway?" NAY to Reach Out to Prester John "Who? Listen, if there was anybody out there I'm sure we would've found him by now." NAY to Appoint Prince Centule of Alexandria as Advisor "Eh." NAY to Appoint Grandmaster Ildey of the Knights of Krete as Designated Regent "Eh." Aye to Et Tamen, Hierusalem Praestat "Yeah sure, Jerusalem rocks, whatever." Abstain to Rename Counties and Duchies "I dunno what any of this means." "Now for the big stuff, flags and poo poo. Hell yeah, let's do it:" Aye to The Flag of Jaked Egg-Tooth "That a sweet as hell flag man, holy poo poo. I love how his brain has just, exploded, because of how cool we are. Could use, like, a sword or something, but still awesome." NAY to The Flag of Count Yijian d'Cathay "Uh, at the risk of further angering this damp monstrosity, gonna have to say no." AYE to Change name to Empire of Medio Sanctus "It's a killer name guys, c'mon!" NAY to The Empire should be known as the "Middle Kingdom" "Y'all can eat the MIDDLE of my rear end, hell no!" NAY to The Empire shall be known officially as Sacrum Status Medialis, in the common parlance the Holy Middle States "An okay name, but mine is better." NAY to Jerusalem is henceforth known as the Empire of Eden. "How about the Empire of Eaten. As in, you should be eaten my rear end with this stuff." NAY to "Jerusalem should be known as the United States." "Nope." AYE to The lord who holds this realm shall be called Emperor Preferent or Empress Preferent , to reflect his or her position as elected lord of the realm. "Hell yeah!" NAY to I propose we give our leaders the title of Magnus Princeps/Principissa. "You're princi-pissing me off, dude." NAY to Custodian General "What, is he a janitor?" AYE to The Empire shall be governed by a "Emperor/Empress Preferent" known by his honorary title "His/Her Elective Majesty" "Sure, why not." NAY to The Empire automatically grants all emperors the Regnal name Adam/Eve. *Makes a farting noise with his mouth, gives a thumbs down.* Clayren fucked around with this message at 21:24 on May 14, 2020 |
