Mmm. I know I came late to the party, but is it too late to propose (informally) a color scheme/banner change? I mocked up this weird/gnome/parliamentary themed banner, and I was also thinking a warmer brown for the color scheme - check it below. What do you think? If… |

| Passing pending proposals out of order? I smell shenangians! (And austere amounts of alliteration!) |
I haven’t been back in a while, so I have no idea: have we enacted some rule that allows proposals to skip the queue? EDIT: bahhhh hahah never mind just read the blo ruleset. i’m going crazy. better join a faction quickkkkkkkk. |

Does the java applet work for anyone else? It doesn’t function at all for me, and I think that it would be very useful, especially during this dynasty. |

As a new peasant of Zahndorf, Elias IX had a lot of free time. So, he took out his sole possession, his full genealogical records of the past half-millennium, and started to read it, when he noticed something he hadn’t seen before: His maternal grandmother’s maternal grandmother’s maternal grandmother was… |

Bucky is idle. Monkeys in six through sixteen are moving on up. Rodney came back first. Then, BobTHJ followed. The end of the line. Changes do happen. They can mess with your dance moves. Be wise and adapt. |

| A slightly apathetic reminder to admins |
“Whenever an Admin marks a proposal as enacted or failed, they must also mark their name, and report the final tally of votes (or the fact that the proposal was self-killed or vetoed).” All right, whatever. |

| Er, sorry, just noticing things, even as an idle admin. I think I’ll leave now. |
I’m not sure who’s adminning proposals without signing his or her name, as per rule 1.5: “Whenever an Admin marks a proposal as enacted or failed, e must also mark eir name, and report the final tally of votes (or the fact that the proposal was self-killed or vetoed).” It… |

Does anyone remember what the color scheme of Excalabur’s Second Dynasty (The Insanity) was, more or less? I’m thinking it would make a good color scheme for the current dynasty… but I don’t remember the exact colors. |

| Er, sorry. |
I apologize for the recent color mix-ups; I was playing with the color scheme and initially broke it. Finally, I ended up with this color scheme which, by the way, is only temporary. Rodney, being Director, is the one with full control over the stylesheet. Once again, apologies. |

The header art isn’t hosted on Blognomic yet. I don’t have shell access, so if it’s not a problem, well… Also, if it seems better to have “Blognomic” and “Second Dynasty of Elias IX” in the header as text as well, then admins, feel free to add the text back. |
