Promoting the GC

[Southern Bellz]

I think it is very important for us to properly promote the GC in order for this to be a success.  I have see a few new faces and I love that.  I see a few people talking about joining the forum on the RMB and it gave me an idea for a two pronged approach to promote this.
 
1) B&N should send out a mass TG to the region with links to the forum in general, where to apply for citizenship and a link to the great council page
 
2) I want the rest of you guys to take part in Occupy TSP RMB with me.  I want all of us to talk about reforms in a public space in an exciting manner.  I know a lot of our active user base right now is from when I was couped.  Think how exciting the RMB was at the time, I imagine that was a key factor and looking to join more.
 
Well I think legit democratic reform is more exciting than a temporary change of delegate!  lets try and show that.
 
I want our RMB to be covered in discussion about our reforms here and reference and links to what you are saying.

I will write an advertisement for B&N to send to everyone.

That's no fun.

Hey %NATION%!
 
The South Pacific's government is currently holding one of its rare Great Council meetings, and you're invited to participate! The Great Council is a meeting where democratic reform is made quickly and effectively with the support of the South Pacific's residents for the sake of improving the region: as a participant in the GC, you'll have an opportunity to help make your mark on TSP, NS, and our community by sharing your thoughts and opinions with us.
 
It'd be a pleasure to have you on board, and if you're interested in participating you can do so here: <a class='bbc_url' href='http://forums.thesouthpacific.org/index.php/forum/305-discussion-hall/]'>http://forums.thesouthpacific.org/index.php/forum/305-discussion-hall/]</a>

Your friend and delegate,

Looks good.

[Brutland and Norden]

Looks good to me; one question, though, will %NATION% be replaced by the nation's name in the real TG if I type it as that in the textbox?

Yes.

[Brutland and Norden]

Ah I see. 'cause it might be embarrassing if the TG appears as %Nation%. I'll try it on my test nation before sending it out en masse later after dinner.

[Brutland and Norden]

I tried sending it out to a test nation earlier, but %NATION% still appeared. Or does %NATION% can be used only in mass TGs?

They only work when sending to more than one nation.  So on mass tg's and any tg that is being sent to more than one nation.

[Brutland and Norden]

Sent. Hopefully people will come.

[Hileville]

Sent. Hopefully people will come.

 
It looks so nice.
