Cuddlebeam defects to the Western bloc and gains 2 IE.

The IE of Kevan, Maldor, Thunder, and pokes becomes 0.

In “Blocs,” remove:

A CIC with at least 2 IE may defect to another Bloc at any time by making a blog post to this effect, and losing 2 IE.

In “Esteem,” add:

When the IE of the UNSG or a CIC who is a member of the Eastern bloc is raised above 0 for any reason, that CIC or UNSG’s IE becomes 0.

 

For the Western Alliance!

Are you sure you want to set up a three-player voting bloc with a grudge against you?

veto

This cuts too close to destabilizing Core. I wouldn’t veto this if UN Resolutions were limited to non-Core proposals, but if this passes, then the next step is possibly not

[UN Resolution] 2 Western bloc members win this Dynasty together

but instead,

[UN Resolution] [Core] 2 Western bloc members become permanent Emperors forever

Arg pokes. You said you’d only veto “wacky word reinterpretation based” “scams”.

I also said when the UN Resolution rule was proposed that it needed boundaries. Grrr.

Well, I hadn’t thought of this, and the situation forced me to change my mind.

Madrid:

Whoa. Oh well.

You can still put another one of these in the queue. I think it has a decent chance of passing, let’s just limit the fallout. I’ve only delayed you 12 hours here.

I’m in favor of a hostile takeover, but not in this direction!
