That's what she said.

Also: To clarify, there is no rationing of "That's what she said" jokes in effect.

Just what is it that you are delegating and to whom?
If you strike a thorn or rose,
Keep a-goin'!
If it hails or if it snows,
Keep a-goin'!
'Taint no use to sit an' whine
When the fish ain't on your line;
Bait your hook an' keep a-tryin'--
Keep a-goin'!

So what sort of regional activities will the Delegate be attempting to implement to bring in new life/blood?

Bringing in new talent is a two stage process.

Aggressive recruiting to get players - (with toaster2 up and more or less running, this will get exponentially easier)

and

A "Total Package" of sorts, with regards to the community and what we offer to keep them. Every citizen effects this part, but from the delegate end of things, I try to make myself as approachable and accessible as possible with the time that I've got. Once the crumbs are scraped out of toaster, we'll get to work on a revamped currency system which will also open up a few avenues. Community and atmosphere is our biggest asset in terms of "retention" however.

Also, good to see ya back Neil!

Thanks buddy! Well with the emphasis for retention being based around the old reliable concepts of community and atmosphere may I recommend reviving the old position of Mama Khab and Allama my wifey. Having set and available people not only for greeting and integrating new players but also for fostering community near constantly. We need a Ministry of Community and some friendly people to run it.

I'm certainly in favor of that. It hadn't been neglected, nor forgotten, merely temporarily sacrificed due to staffing issues at the time. My cabinet ended up being a bit of a skeleton crew lol

Dammit. I miss Khab and Allama, both of 'em were sweet enough to give me diabeetus.

Anyways, you want the job? You're active, friendly (just don't get too friendly, we can't afford the settlements) and experienced.

Toaster worked until late yesterday. I will work on fixing it tonight.

I was very busy last night.

I'm not really an ideal candidate for any such position at least not being in charge. My time is very sporadically linked to the internet due to real world goals to be accomplished.

Well, should anyone be interested in MoCR, shoot me a pm and we'll discuss it!

I'll poke our own private Llama and see if she's interested in a triumphant return.

It might do her good to have this outlet again, though I suspect she will not be returning here. I'll see if my charm can't convince her of such via text.
