Musical Chairs
Posted: Thu Nov 29, 2018 5:37 am
I don't know what I meant by Hot Potato with that last announcement, but I know what I mean by musical chairs in this one. Everyone prepare for (what I consider) a pretty massive government shuffle! Hurray, hurray! Our current government has seen enormous positive change, but as must be expected with any meritocracy, new ideas and shifting availability mean new appointments and an opportunity for new Osirans to shine. Everyone please congratulate the following Osirans on showing what they're made of and earning themselves positions in leadership:
Rigel - Rigel has been serving as our Vizier of Community Affairs and Moshir of Legion. She's done a very good job of keeping CA on its feet and Legion under her command has been a serious bounce back in attaining Osiran property, even getting their hands on a couple of new Jump Points, and maintained positive relationships with our friends and allies. However, Osiris needs Rigel's help in new ways. Effective immediately, she is being removed from our Vizier team and as Moshir to take on her new role as Guardian of Osiris. If your WA is in the region, please endorse her and help her make it up to her cap! Congrats, Rigel!
Josh - Josh is a long-time Osiran who's been helping me out for as long as I can remember. He will be taking over for Rigel and became our new Vizier of Community Affairs. I've talked to him a lot, and he's got amazing ideas for CA - especially during these war-time efforts! I'm very excited to see what he will do with the place. Congrats, Josh!
Benja - Benja promised his loyalty to Legion the second he walked in the door in Osiris. He saw promise there and dove into it head first. Getting Legion off the ground would have been all but impossible without his help. WIth the help of Mike, Lynx, and Rigel, we have him trained up now to the point that we think Legion will be safe in his hands, and he is being promoted to Moshir of Legion He is a true monument to the ways that you can grow and learn if you really put the work into it in Osiris, and the rewards that effort will bring you. Congrats, Benja!
Kyrusia - HAIL THE OVERGOAT! Ky is not only almost entirely to be trusted in the ways of perfection in culinary opinion, he's also the first among many wise Osirans to realize that Osiris is Dixie. Dixie in the Desert. This is something we probably should've realized the first time we heard NK in voice chat, but we didn't, and here we are now. I blame those dirty infiltrators. In any case, he's especially earned his place here in Osiris during our war efforts, where he's put out Propaganda like a machine, to the point that we've had to name a Chamber of Propaganda as an Osiran department, consisting solely of him and all of his work. In addition to the art he's done for us during wartime, he created the badges that we know use for ranks in Legion and some artwork that various departments are now using to help them present a more thematically centralized face in their work. For this reason, he's been named as Sub-Vizier of Propagandic Arts under the greater umbrella of Community Affairs. Congrats, Kyru!
Bdurham - (Aka Ham, Aka Brayden) Ham has taken a particular interest in Gameside Affairs that has helped make our Vizier transition from Lynx to Rachael a very smooth one. He's turned into the kind of person that will pop into Gameside and say "I'm bored. I've got some ideas, here's some work for us to do." I love that kind of person. That kind of person is exactly what I'm looking for. In faith that he will continue to be that kind of person and assist Rachael well in her place as Vizier, Ham is named Sub-Vizier of Gameside Affairs. Congrats, Ham!
Lord Dominator - But Gameside already has a Sub-Vizier! Are they allowed to have two?! Well, yes, they are, first of all. They could have 17 if it was effective, I don't care. But they won't have two. Lord Dominator is having his position as Sub-Vizier of WA Affairs under the Gameside Affairs umbrella elevated into its own department. What this means is that LD will have his own civil service staff, like Gameside, Community, and Foreign Affairs do. His department will work to create WA proposals on behalf of Osiris and her interests and boost interest in WA Affairs in general. We've got a bit of work to do behind this department in discussing how it will be set up, what administrative changes that will call for on Discord and the forums, etc, but LD already has a few volunteers as his beginning staff to help get our new WA Affairs department off the ground in his new place as Vizier. Congrats, LD!
Thanks to all of your for the work that you've put in here already, it has been absolutely invaluable to Osiris and my personal tenure as Pharaoh. I know that you'll all do a great job.
As an added note, because our list of Guardians now are very different than the list of Guardians that we were working with when I last updated our line of succession, our updated line of succession is as follows:
Mike (Mghnb)
Lynx (Ghostfox)
Sygian (The Sygian)
Rigel (Rigels Light)
Syberis (Syberis)
NK (Neo Kervoskia)
This places Mike as new Chairman of the Guardians.
Rigel - Rigel has been serving as our Vizier of Community Affairs and Moshir of Legion.
