Claim:

Notes: We have discussed this with Pete already - I hope that I've done all this correctly. Hatay was founded in 2005 as an Imperial Fief of the Kingdom of Babkha. We have recently earned our independence from them and now seek land on Micras as opposed to the GSO map.

A nice claim ... (though you may want to colour inside the red for the capital symbol, and administrative centre (though I gather that's normally used only for colonies ...)

However, your forum link isn't working for me ...

Babkha rebels aye? Max will have something to say about that ...

Forum link should work now, thanks for pointing that out.

We are currently in a state of high alert, and therefore must approve each new account. Anyone who wishes to visit may get an email from me asking who you are - so please do not be insulted. It's just that if we don't know you, we'll want to double-check before giving you access to the forum.

I will fill in those colored areas and re-upload the map. Thanks for pointing that out, too.

We actually have two capital cities - one which is historical and the place where the Viziers meet (Tanis) and the other where the rest of the governmental functions take place - which is the modern, official capital (Iskanderun) - hence the two symbols being used.

Edit: Done

another one with two?

Nice claim though, good luck with it

Thanks

And yeah - the idea was discussed long ago by the former Sultan of Hatay and the former Shah of Babkha. They wanted to honor both locations since one was destined to be the religious center (and religion means a lot to Hatayyians) and the other more modern and therefore the place where the pencil-pushers would get together.

just a small correction for your claim, you need to change the text used so that it isn't blending in with the colour of the nation...

ps. i've signed up to your forums, but i can't access my hotmail, so if a validation email's been sent i won't be able to use that...

Queen of Hatay · Post by **Queen of Hatay** » Thu May 17, 2007 6:10 am

Actually the text size, font, and colors are according to the rules as described to me by Pete and someone else who's name eludes me at the moment

I'm sure they'll yell at me if something's wrong.

Edit: You've been approved and granted Guest Access. Enjoy your stay.

TOO BIG AND THEIR TAKING MY BIT THAT I WANT THAT I'VE TRIED TWICE FOR NOW.........TWICE!!!

Swamp Candle · Post by **Swamp Candle** » Thu May 17, 2007 7:01 am

it's my bit

Queen of Hatay · Post by **Queen of Hatay** » Thu May 17, 2007 7:03 am

While I appreciate your attempt to interfere with our claim, might I be permitted to point out a few things?

Obviously I wouldn't know anything about your previous claim attempts. But I will say that after looking at your forum, we appear more active, more organized, have more citizens then you, and have been around longer. In the end, maybe such small details will be what helps us get the claim we'd like.

Did that make me sound like a bit**?? Yeah, probably did.

you try being active were the only people who have joined post once then f*** off, theres no point being organized because of my previous point and how do you know you've been around longer? (i know you have but just as a technical detail) and yes that did make you sound a bit of a bit**

I may not understand the reasons why and how the MCS come up with who gets what bits of land, but I know that citizenship has something to do with it. You've had a hard time with keeping people around - and for that I am sorry. But it's not my fault that your previous claims have been rejected, yet you felt like shouting in a thread that I started, and interfering with my claim, which I see as highly disrespectful. And like I said you "appear" etc etc - from the Forum, it doesn't look like you've been around longer than a few months, whereas we've been around for a little while longer.

If you use AIM or MSN, please PM me with your info. I would like to talk to you in private please.

Swamp Candle · Post by **Swamp Candle** » Thu May 17, 2007 7:23 am

Queen of Hatay · Post by **Queen of Hatay** » Thu May 17, 2007 7:25 am

No worries. I'll send you my msn info and you can message me when you see me on.

Swampie, no offence, but shut the hell up. Stop swearing. Although feel free to contest the claim.

Nice claim. I'll have to redo it though - your fonts are too Vista.

EDIT: *da da da daaaa*

Isn't that a bit too big?
I mean... How long are you sovereign and independent?

Iehova · Post by **Iehova** » Thu May 17, 2007 12:04 pm

Hatay was created as a province of Babkha almost two years ago, and has just recently seceded to become independent.

I think that there are few nations more deserving of a claim like this than Hatay, I mean, based on cultural development alone, most nations couldn't hold a candlestick to it.

I therefore wholeheartedly urge the Council to vote aye!

I am quite new here, Iehova, only 3 months...

Sorry Pawel, I don't see your point...

Can someone do USSC, theres a colour change in the middle of it which is quite random, I made special point of doing that when I did Lovely's two ideas, the Benkerngrad is also split in half oddly.

told ya...

@Swamp Candle (yeah i know i'm late into the argument) - you may have attempted to claim a small part of the area, but if you're less active an less organised than Hatay would take priority. plus Hatay's claim encompasses more resources so they could build on trade and such with that, whereas you don't have an abbundance of anything on the small bit you wanted...

ok, everyone continue what you were doing...

Babs · Post by **Babs** » Thu May 17, 2007 4:04 pm

Technically Durk. takes priority due to him claiming first, but its whoever's vote is finished first

*sounds like the Welsh assembly eleections !*
