Just a thought in response to Seneshal Davis's program to recruit new/more citizens from the GTA.
What about running an Ad in The UW-Milwaukee's campus newspaper? I haven't looked at the cost or anything like that without input from Alexander but it's an idea.
Any other suggestions?

I know that the Home Ministry and Ministry of Stuff have been looking into things just such as this. I have called this thread to the attention of the Minister of Home Affairs, and let's hope that the recruitment campaign of the administration gets some traction!

I have several other ideas that are more targeted to the RT ... because of Security concerns I am not at liberty to discuss this on Witt, however, this idea has merit and will also be explored.

Let's keep the ideas flowing. I love the idea of "elevator speeches" about the Kingdom of Talossa and the like. What if the RT area Talossans set up booths or stood across the street from a place of business so as not to loiter?

"A Lot less talk and a lot more action"! Lets get going. Here Here! Let us all channel our inner Toby Keith! I have several other ideas that are more targeted to the RT ... because of Security concerns I am not at liberty to discuss this on Witt... It's those damned bastards from the "Republic", isn't it? ...however, this idea has merit and will also be explored. Huzzah! Update: linked to the lyrics.

Ventrutx, would you contact me privately with your ideas. I also encourage the Seneshal to act on his campaign promise to start recruiting in the GTA. I stand ready to help Alex in any way I can. I like the idea of an Ad in the UWM Newspaper as a starter. Other thoughts?

I believe it was pretty plainly a joke.

My sense of humours has some catching up to do, it seems.

Tut tut, my friends; a bit touchy, I would say. As the Seneschal pointed out, that was obviously a joke, and one that I am sure all of us including the poster honestly believed would bring a smile to your faces. You all know none of us would ever use such language about you except in jest, or if you don't, you don't know us very well at all. Perhaps there is a cultural difference here that makes this particular kind of joke difficult to see (I wonder). That is, I wonder if those of us who are American Talossans realized this to be a particular kind of joke that we, here, are quite familiar with, while those of the Talossan culture who live in other parts of the world (this may be a poor theory, since I don't know where you live, Cauvesc) might not be so familiar. But at least to most of this post's audience, the quoted phrase was taken much like "that darned cat!", in which obviously exaggerated and undeserved epithets are put on an obviously undeserving target of blame (in this case, one that everyone knows is certainly not the true reason behind any behind-the-scenes-ness of the GTA recruiting efforts). But enough analysis -- as the King says, the analysis of humour is perhaps the least funny way of all to pass time. Our rivalry, at least from our point of view, sirs, is a very friendly one, and we claim (for us and you) the freedom to make light of it. Hool

I love you so much, you damn Kingdom bastards - especially Hool, Tycho, Flip, Eovart and Eoin, sometimes even Alex -, that I can't help but forgive you.
But don't make fun of Cauvesc, because he's from Wales and might be an undercover druid ready to cast an evil spell on you! ;D
Ah, Hool, before I forget, be so kind as to change "Guest from the Talossan Republic" to "Member of the Talossan Republic". Thanx!
