The Ambassador List February (as of 2/17/09)

Day 455, 11:46 • Published in USA USA • by Inwegen

Good morning my fellow Americans

Today I will be presenting the ambassador list. But, before I do that, I want to speak to the timeliness issue. Many have come to me and my deputies asking "When is the list coming out?" There are a number things that factor into the delay on getting the list out.

First, we lost the list from the previous term when the old forums were destroyed. This was a major blow to the ambassadorial appointment process. We would have built off this list to improve the already great ambassadors we had. So, we were forced to start fresh.

Since we were starting fresh I had a good feeling the list would be slow to form and short overall. Both ended up being true. But, we can only build from here. How do we prevent this from happening in the future? We all need to use a more permanent medium than the forum and in game articles for important information. I recommend Google Docs. Sure, they don't link right in game, but it isn't that hard to copy/paste now is it? It also allows us all to share information in a permanent format so we can only become more efficient and streamlined as a nation and government.

That being said, I promise to do my best to make this process more and more efficient. We will still be accepting applications for this term to build the ambassadorial pool and fill vacant spots. In future terms, I urge the Secretary of State for that term to build off the list of current ambassadors so that this isn't a problem every time.

All ambassadors are encouraged to look at this forum topic on Ambassadorial Reports. This will show you what the top notch guys are doing. Please work hard on this as they are very important for your government.
