How is everyone not seeing this clearly

regional name change is real policy, it's been discussed for quite some time.

That being said, the content of bills is not the issue, LT

It’s a policy, and if he can’t vote based on policy he shouldn’t be a delegate

Plain and simple

Everything introduced is policy of some sort

But the thing is that naming a region is very symbolic and it provides a legacy to whoever picks the name

So if he associates a certain name and song with you, and he has issues with you

Then he has no obligation to support your idea

He also hasn't addressed the raccoon issue at all :/

Since it's all just a vanity policy

many southerners expressed a desire to rename the region. it's an issue that's come up in the South tons of times post reset. it's not a vanity policy at all.

But southerners disagree on what to exactly rename it to

and the current discussion in the chamber has been to have the citizens vote on the version they prefer

And pretty much the Chamber will pick whichever name the "alpha male" gets the necessary votes for

even if YT hadn't introduced the bill, Ben would have tried to force through renaming it back to IDS, and been a lot less reasonable than YT on the issue

you don't know Ben and how he works

at least how it's currently planned, the southerners actually pick, not the chamber.

So would there be a referendum on a list of possible names?

And the chamber picks the list of names?

Ben wants to not give southerners a choice

He put a bill that would just need to be signed by the Governor

I want something that lets the people decide

So do you like the referendum list idea

Yeah

As I've stated previously, I will not sign a bill that changes the name of the region.

It should be a decision made by The People, not by 7 delegates and then me.

100% agreed

Yeah it needs to be a referendum

With a list choice

We just need to get names

I think we can open up the floor for the people’s suggestions

Close it after 24 hours

Then put it up as a list preference and the first one that hits with 50.1# gets to be the new name

That’s how I’d prefer it, I just don’t know the proper way of doing it

Maybe more than 24 hours

And yeah ranked choice voting is always great

Largely I think my plan is good

I really would prefer we not ever return to the IDS as it is really lame

What about IDJ

That’s not happening

let me catch up here.
