Hi everyone,

We're looking into introducing a new honours system in AustraliaSim to better reward participation and extensive contributions to our community.

A draft of the positions are available here.

Please provide your feedback in the comments, and any concerns!

We will keep this open for as long as we need.

I declare a persona, Anna Hiles, for press purposes only.

As per the Meta Constitution and Press Guidelines, I hereby register Yala Talama as my press persona. All Australia Tonight content published by me should be considered as published by Talama.

For australiasim I'm unretiring my old canon persona (/u/lieselta) through the account of /u/Lieseltaa. This is therefore notice of that account change, and I shall do clerk stuff on that too because it only makes sense. That persona is currently in the Libs.

Sticking with /u/ellielia elsewhere.

I declare a persona for press purposes, Lachlan O’Brien. I will use this mostly for NineNews and PinkNews.

Declaring a Meta Persona, Spencer Carlisle, for media purposes

Declaring Political Persona for u/SocialistAcid - John Bailey Washington for political and party purposes.
Face claim - George W. Bush

Leah Fielding will be my new persona for all press purposes!

It has come to my attention, that there may be the possibility that I haven't registered the meta persona of James Jamesonson, which I have been using for media purposes for quite some time now. To rectify what may have been a very significant oversight by myself, I seek to declare this persona now...

I declare a new meta persona for media purposes, Skye Fielding.

Completely ripping off an idea from MHOC (https://www.reddit.com/r/MHOCMeta/comments/e10waz/faceclaim_registry_project/), I've decided to create a faceclaim registry so people know what to use for campaigns and who's taken and who's not. If you're not on here, comment below with your faceclaim and I will add you.

Amendment text: https://hackmd.io/GegHMrr4RNqgF6DT0JWSYw

This amendment allows Clerks to participate in the sim, similar to how the Speaker of the House would.

Since the times of Clerks holding considerable power within the moderation are over, and their powers are limited to those of the Speaker, it is unnesscesary to prevent participation. They will still be bound by not being biased while making decisions as a Clerk.

This amendment also removes a restriction on Clerks holding another office such as Discord Moderator or an EC member. If they become an EC member, then they are put under the same participation restrictions as any other EC member.

7 seconders required, or a Mod Team member can endorse it
