October 2, 2004

It should be pointed out that although the public court was held one day after the elections, the bans were delayed as there was a last-minute effort to persuade the accused Tyrants to accept the situation and the new status... That was the biggest mistake that ever took place in Avamar!

The corrupted ignobles, during the negotiations had enough time to destroy utterly the infrastructure of Avamar (they didn't left a single building!), disband the militia, cash bonds and recruit army, contact Doc and his puppets to invade Flismar/Elmbar/Limbar and later Avamar and to organise a rebellion simutaneously with a Srion's attack!

Pandora's box was now open...



People of West Sirion,

A public trial will be held, as we promised and in accordance with our mandate. Give your opinion in a Democratic way, publicly and freely! The Will of the people will be followed to conclude to a verdict by tomorrow.

All votes go as “Guilty” or “Innocent” of the accused Troop Leaders.

This will be a PUBLIC VOTING. A new era has begun! Don’t be afraid to speak up loudly and express your opinion as a FREE man or woman! All votes counts equally…

And here are the Accusations:

Evylears, former Ruler of West Sirion. Accused for ruling as a dictator for an extremely long period, never giving opportunities to TLs other than the council to be involved in political or military decisions. He has never explained his decisions to the people as a ruler in a Republic should do. Now that he felt his power being at stake he has suddenly awaken sending messages and talking about potential problems. Additionally he maintained the close circle of TLs in the council, never opening it to others no matter how devoted, experienced or active there were, not even in times of crises.

Areardo, former General and Judge of W.Sirion. Accused for showing the most arrogant and indifferent behaviour towards the non-council TLs. As a general he never issued a single order and he only knew how to insult TLs who were trying to get the initiative for the good of our Realm.

Redyleye, Brother of Evylears. Believe it or not but the same player was holding for long time and quite often TWO places in the council while other TLs were longing for some involvement! Accused with the same crimes against the People of West Sirion with his brother.

Dimarus, former Banker of West Sirion. As a TL he was NEVER addressed to another fellow leader or tried to undertake some common action. As a Banker he maintened a situation where all money were going to the corrupted council while other TLs were trying desperately to get some gold!

Sceptre, although was the only one from the corrupted government of the past that showed some respect to new players and he was the only Tyrant that ever spoke to newcomers, he did nothing serious to change the situation although he had the power to do so. He was always negative even to the smallest initiatives taken by TLs. Sceptre would be never able to adopt himself in a true democratic regime and would be a continual potential threat for rebellion.

Handow former Banker of W.Sirion. Same accusations with Sceptre. Additionally he showed his intentions as he agreed to undertake the Bankers position although there were more experienced TLs than him!

Ghrommnir and Ulath. these two were the less involved persons with the tyrannical regime they didn’t attempt to change things even a bit. Their roles were rather pathetic. As a Judge, Ghrommnir was quite arrogant sharing punishments, fines and continually threatening TLs.


PLEASE READ! The Process. Please send your votes ONLY TO ME by tomorrow 17:00 GMT, in order not to influence others towards a certain verdict. You have to know though, that before announcing the verdict ALL the voting will be circulated PUBLICLY so we will all know what the others have voted. That is TRANSPARENCY we have promised!

In order NOT to influence the verdict through announcing my preferences now, please allow me to vote last.

The results will be announced tomorrow evening. All that will be found guilty will have an opportunity to apologise for their crimes.

Thank you all for your concern,

Sir Lalakis, Grand Justiciar of West Sirion"


Finally some of the above TLs were banned while they were rebels the rest of them automatically when their attempt failed, as expected, because they were lucking public support!

The tiny realm of West Sirion had managed to withstand a major offense by the greatest realm at that time (Sirion), alogside with a rebellion and few rogues marauding our former regions!
