Mount September: Difference between revisions

By August 2020 activity in Mount Augusta was at an all time low. The city state had officially moved to servers to [[CivRealms]] causing its CivClassic counterpart to be without a subreddit, constitution and eventually, [[discord]] server. [[Squareblob]] and [[Godomasta]] intended to revive CivClassics' MtA by slowly derelicting property, starting by HPOOM blvd. However, the effort it would have taken to acidblock and rebuild some of the infrastructure was deemed too high, and the prospect of a fresh start was too attractive. Construction in Mount September began on August 11th 2020. By September 2020 the basic forms of the downtown canal, roads and voter tree had been constructed.

Another debate was the legal one: the Mount Augusta constitution was deemed by some to be too complex and stale, so a change was seen as necessary; there was some doubt as to whether it would be better to write a new constitution from scratch, or condense Mount Augusta's into a more friendly format. The [https://reddit.com/r/MountSeptember r/MountSeptember] subreddit was banned on September 3rd 2020 (The "sunken park" was built in honor of this event), and the former was deemed as a better alternative. The original constitution was drafted by [[AllenY]], which after a brief revision period was ratified on October 5th 2020.

On October 22nd 2020, the [[Mount September Mall]] officially opened, and was followed six days after with the creation of a local currency: the septem ($), worth seven diamonds, and its subdivision, the yiseptem (￥), worth 1/64th of a septem. The MtS Mall slowly but surely grew and now includes over half a dozen shops, selling building materials, food, enchanted items and various other things.

On December 23rd, 2020 an event that would forever change the September political landscape occured. What started as an innocuous road naming ceremony evolved into pure chaos after South Augusta's leader, [[TheOrangeWizard]] murdered squareblob, who was then mayor. The crowd in the event was launched into a frenetic chase that led to the eventual pearling and subsequent freeing of TheOrangeWizard, who angered at this act immediately pearled [[ChickenWingGeek]]. Three brave ill-equipped Septembrians rushed to reclaim TheOrangeWizard's pearl but they were all pearled. Negotiations between [[South Augusta]] and Mount September soon started, inducing a strong backlash from the more critical sectors of society - the leader of this dissent, AllenY, was promptly pearled; thus crushing all opposition. The deal was to be sealed in [[Fort Briggs]], however, AllenY removed Godomasta from groups mid-deal and locked TheOrangeWizard in the vault.

The ordeal ended when [[Wingzero54]] teleported to TheOrangeWizard and accidentally let him through one of the doors, after which point he pearled minemaster[[Minemaster933]] - cooliomoose[[Cooliomoose]] jumped in the vault and pearled TheOrangeWizard shortly after.

On the 28th of February Godomasta was elected Mayor, becoming the second Mayor of Mount September, succeeding [[Squareblob]]. The new mayorship came with a modified Cupboard, including the creation of a new Cup: the Cup of Defense, a position held by former mayor Squareblob. While the Diplomat position was not changed by Godomasta, Thraldek[[Thraldrek]], longtime Diplomat of Mount September, tended his resignation on March 17th, 2021,<ref>https://discord.com/channels/742831212711772261/742831405444104352/821795678632149032</ref> and was replaced by [[RedDevel]] on April 4th 2021.

Godomasta would go on to fulfill another term, following in Squareblob's footsteps by completing two terms. As such he was made ineligible to run for a third term after his last one, and an election to replace him ended in the victory of [[Thraldrek]].

Thraldrek did not seek reelection following his first term, leaving no clear successor as no member of his cabinet ran for his position. [[KingOfTheMochas]], a relative newcomer to MtS who was serving as a Judge at the time, received the most votes and was elected Mayor on September 17th, 2021. KingOfTheMochas has shown to prioritize the militarization of MtS, overseeing a rapid increase in military infrastructure, including focusing significant effort on the completion of the [[AF Vault]]. Interestingly, KingOfTheMochas reduced the size of the cupboard significantly, centralizing many roles, notably defense, into the Cup of State. Politically, KingOfTheMochas has been more vocally opposed to "[[World Police (CivClassic)|World Police]]" compared to his predecessors, but has also overseen increased diplomatic communication with the world's alliances, such as the [[UDF]].
