Message | We would point out to those voting against this bill that these powers would only be instigated in a national emergency and so would be used to protect the safety of the populace. They would not effect the population on a day-by-day basis. We would, however, as the HPP have requested, like to discuss specific details on instigation and control of curfews, to be added in a further resolution. |

Message | Is there already a resolution on what counts as a national emergency? If not that should also be discussed to prevent any abuses of government. |

Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play. |
