On behalf of His Majesty, his Government and all Citizens of Talossa, I would like to extend a big [glow=red,2,300]Thank You[/glow] to all those who have dedicated their time and efforts into the long and tedious job of making/editing TalossaWiki. From just browsing through the site, it is plain to see the fantastic and amazing job Talossans can do when working together for a common goal. Everyone who has contributed to this site is a true credit to this nation and we are lucky to have such great and selfless Talossans among us. I would also like to give a special thanks to the following Talossans for their trojan efforts so far with TalossaWiki: S:reu Tarfa for his outstanding work on Chancery templates, S:reu Grischun for his work patiently transcribing election results, and S:reu Conductor and S:reu D'unmortadel for their remarkable work in assembling the statutes. Thank you all and keep up the fantastic work! -- Litz

Maybe I'll see a page on the history/etymology of "micking" something. Which I am fairly certain has something to do with Sir Mick Preston.

It stems from the fact that some citizens (wrongly, but traditionally) would "second" a citizen petition. Sir Mick has argued that we should not second petitions, we should support or sign them only. A mini argument ensued between Mick, Flip, myself and perhaps some others. Tim proposed that instead of signing, supporting or even seconding a petition, that we Mick it. And now that's the way things go. Tim also pointed out that it only works because Mick's name is Mick. If his name were something like James then the whole thing would not work. Imagine having to James a petition? Nah!

I just now (finally!) got around to registering. "KingJohn".
Awesome job, everyone! And it's just going to get better and better, with everyone adding their bits here and there. Holy moly, is this the world's coolest country or WHAT?
