"Taijitu United Nations"
« on: August 01, 2015, 07:25:42 PM »
Some of us were previously having a discussion about a Taijitu form of the United Nations, and I think it could put an interesting spin on 20th century Taijitu history, and perhaps we could shift some historical events to make the UN play a role in these things.

I am torn between having it, in practice, function as a more idealistic form of what the UN should be, or terrible, corrupt, and ineffective like the actual UN is.

Anyway, I think it would be an interesting idea and help to facilitate some cool RP as well. What are your thoughts?

Maybe we need a second big war.

I would be very interested in this. I love corruption, but an idealistic Gene Roddenberry UN could be interesting too.

Poor Funkadelia would be decimated by that. :( UN help!

We could do a conference RP between the leaders of the nations founding this organization. Keep it personal and high-level.

Should we decide on a name?  Then vote?

I would also be interested in doing the organizations logo/flag ... or if Delfos or anyone else would want to we could make it a vote or collaboration or whatever?

Also, if we are doing a Second Great War, will this organization for before or after....or because of?

I concur with Eluvatar. I also think a name for the organization could probably be worked out in-character as we write the piece.

IPO is part of the past RP History, it'd be a good way to honor past RP/RPers to name this one after the old one.

International Peace Organization:

IPO's headquarters
(old New Delfos flag 3rd from the right)

and it's "UN blue helmets" as the IPO's Candy Helmets


http://forum.taijitu.org/ipo/ipo-archives/

as a matter of fact, all the treaty topics are still available, to whoever wants to read awesome proposals.

Rotative Administration is paramount to success :D

While IPO does sound like "Initial Public Offering," we need not rule it out.

I think it would be a neat way to recall our history... though maybe without the pink helmets! ;)
