Hi Linda,

As a citizen of the USA or any country you have the right to use the flag and symbols pretty much anyway you want. You can find flags from any country on almost anything including napkins, plates, etc. and you can sell and buy them. Why would the Asgardia government want to control this since Asgardia is supposed to be an open society?  I could understand if it was not in good taste but in reality isn't Asgardia supposed to be a free and unrestricted society.  Not allowing the use of our symbols is a major restriction.  If we want to build and sell products with the Asgardia symbol then in an unrestricted society this would be allowed?  If we want to build an open society we must not force such regulations on it's citizens.  Can you explain this and how it is not controlling?

Thanks,

Michael

Welp, it been ages since i've been on the forums and I think it's time for a little update.

1. Discord is at 79 members with 6 mods and 5 admins included in the 79 (we are not currently looking for any more staff, I want to keep to a ratio of 1:10 [Staff:member])
2. Steam group is still a mess and i'll sort that out (exams are over now so it shouldn't take long)
3. A popular idea in the discord channel is that we will hold a friendly tournament so the community can get to really know eachother over the summer (I've been a bad admin and have only spoke to a bunch of you, even less of you via the voice chat)
4. Lots of people have not been registered as an certified asgardian in the discord channel, if this is one of you reading this then please post your discord name and number below please and i'll try to get everything sorted :)

So, with all that listed I request that you help us keep the discord alive, I MAY be giving away my old gaming headphones (Siberia V2/V3) , we have also had steam keys dropped in the discord by myself and community members so it's probably a good idea to keep an eye on the discord ;) (headphone giveaway conditions will probs be in there)

It's been wonderful getting to know the bunch of you that I have met and I wish to meet many more of you over the summer and upcoming year!!!

Love you guys loads, Elxroid
P.S I am going to make another thread about what games you'd like to see in the tournament. my plan is to have a bunch of small tournaments meaning that everyone gets to play what they would like :)

Ministry of Inclusion:

In today’s world on Earth, it is difficult to find inclusionof special needs to abled bodied individuals working together. That could bechanged by enacting a Ministry of Inclusion. As a wheelchair user there are timesthat I am judged long before I have the opportunity to show my skills andabilities.  If we practice inclusion itwill bring peace from within. With every society comes those with differentialabilities often labeled as disabilities when they are only different ways ofdoing the same activities.

All apart... reading the most of threads it seems we'll have to " change the world " (AKA populate the satellite, which should be sort of space colony, learning a new language, explore and mine asteroids' belt, etc.) tomorrow .

As far as I can see, as now we're still at very first stages after Dr. Ashurbeyli's Space Nation's "kick off", the situation is (ref. @petrv) "there is a company which is leading the process of becoming/building a nation, in the meanwhile we're just guests of a forum, offering our contributes and ideas to the project" (that's, by the way, the reason why AIRC's lawyers , and not "our" ones, will put "our" Constitution together).

Next steps will be to " vote for the Constitution and Unity (etc.) " and to " place a (I bet very little) satellite into some orbit " (kind of "cubesat": 10 cm side, for 1 kg total weight) so to have a " territory " to claim, as a base for asking UN some kind of recognition as a State (which is somewhat different than a Nation ).

Then will hopefully come the Government and (even more hopefully, but it's written into the Constitution's ToC) the Parliament .

This just to summarize next months' things to come.

At that point, correct me if I'm wrong, we should be a " State ", with a territory , a Constitution and citizens (having we passed the " L3 check "): our Government and Parliament may start to write our laws and " guidelines " for the State(Ministries) to work.
And we'll be still here, speaking English as common agreement, all into each ones' countries, and all "virtually" as " asgardians citizens ", still on Earth.

Then, maybe into 10 (or more) years, "Earth-to-space operations" will become cheap enough to start building our very first inhabitated satellite , which will be far from " a colony " in extension: maybe 5-10 crew persons at all (ISS' crew is max 6 persons and the project is costing 100 billion euro (109 billion usd) in 30 years, ESA estimations).
And we'll be speaking english even at that time as we'll be 1st generation asgardians still.

Then, into 20-30 years, maybe, we'll add some " modules " (habitats) so to have permanent population on Asgardia ... at that time (30-40 from now) there will be childs to teach any language will be choosen as official, start developing Asgardia's own culture and so on...

That's why I don't think have much sense to fight , nowadays, for " details ": my only concern, at this point, is to achieve some kind of " asgardian's way " which, in my own and limited view, shouldn't be the same as " Earth's way " as we know. We should " think asgardian ", IMHO, and the language is just a facet of the culture we'll build.
Pretty sure we'll have a lot of time , to learn whichever " asgardian's official language " we're going to choose: no need to hurry. ;-)
Start thinking asgardian , on the other side, is a need even now.

I  contacted Unish's admin. They will soon provide YouTube tutorials. Nice! I feel Unish has the potential to become a world's interlanguage. Badly needed, as I think Esperanto is the shit! (Well, that's my opinion, and I entirely agree with it! Care to disagree??)

Any updated news？            Still can't    :/

Hi Summa,

Lloyd Cox will create the server by sunday ( May 7 ) meantime you can join us at discord  ( temcan #6641 ), so we can concentrate on putting the team together. Once we establish the foundations Lloyd Cox will make the official announcement. Thank you for participating.

Hi Guys,

You have submitted your wish to participate in service based economy study group at indicated dates. Update is this Lloyd Cox and set up a shop for the study. At the moment Lloyd is waiting permission to create a room on CA server. meantime we are communicating through his and my discord accounts ( Lloyd Cox #8873, temcan #6641).

We have evaluated the Civic Asgardia proposal submission format, he will forward a spreadsheet to the group members. I ve put together an preliminary Action plan and working on the time table. Early participation will help us achieve the goal. So that I can share the action plan and we expand and improve it.

If you are concrete on your commitment please reach either me or Lloyd at our Discord accounts ( for the ones who are not familiar with Discord as myself, it is rather easy to set up and use. )

8. Susana Buono, you have already remarked on the topic one way another, your contribution and views are valuable for our common goal, please do join the team, if you can.

It is not easy to work in a multinational environment via channels of communication comparing to face to face but this the case we have. Time zones will be a major constraint, there will be a lot of delegation and free study and submit sessions involved. Once we get organized, by experience I know that its not as difficult as it sounds.

Our initial plan is to be ready to submit on 1 october  ( Round D )

Looking forward to work with you guys and achieve something worthy.
