Dominion of Caramida NS-Wikipedia entry, aka too much time on my hands.

Should you find yourself with the same, you can make one, too!

I still haven't figured out what to do with M. Terwilliger. If the laws as written (or suggested) don't address all the problems raised by an issue, should I just dismiss the debate?

There is a MMORPG that doesn't require a scorching graphics card, doesn't ask for a monthly subscription, and doesn't take more than five minutes of your day. It's called Nation States, is based on a novel called Jennifer Government, and allows players to mold small countries into their own political utopiae simply by deciding what laws should be passed in their countries, determining the country's stance on various issues. There's also a virtual United Nations, and plenty of opportunity to learn what might be the consequences of various political decisions in your very own national sandbox.

Anyway, this is all to announce the foundation of the Dominion of Caramida. I'll be taking nominations for our National Anthem, if you like. The first issue was whether voting should be compulsory, with a couple of valid arguments on all sides. I decided to legalize compulsory voting in the Dominion, and I look forward to seeing what comes of it. In Caramida, we don't care what you vote for, only that you vote for something.

I imagine there ought to be a BuggerOff party, for those who refuse to vote for anyone else. They oughtn't have a platform other than "Keep Your Stinking Paws Off". If the voters were to elect them into the Government though, we'd definitely have to let the BuggerOffs repeal the compulsory voting thing, if they wanted to.
