National Motto: "In Bob We Trust, Stupid!"
The United Forums of Neptune Circle is a large, scarcely populated nation, notable for its devotion to non-partisan cartoons. Its population of 676 member is impressive, although no more than 20 seem to be active at a time.
It is difficult to tell where the quiet government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of new flash cartoons, spammer control, and getting interesting Google ads so the fans will click them. The average income tax rate is 0, as the forum is free to the public, and the merchandise is reasonably priced. The fan submissions have gone done greatly in recent months, as we see little fan fiction, fan art and fan cartoons.
The debate forum has become popular with such witty discussions like "Cemetery Dog Walking", a large number of clubs have formed, every time 5 big members leave we get an old good member who left some time ago, and the admin has done a good job of keeping morality high. Crime is well under control, as few people even roam the streets. Neptune Circle's national animal is Bob, which frolics freely in the nation's average number of flash cartoons, and a money mod is currently being searched for.
Part II: Current Administration Analysis
Rocky Pinnicle (President) - The leader of the rag-tag country, Rocky was once a successful actor. He is most famous for his movie titled "Kermit Kombat". Rocky drifts on the forums now and then, and he is a person you would never want to debate with. His skills in debate are ten times better than his animation skills, which are also good. Rocky also tends to be more evasive and exclusive than his vice president. Party: Boblican
John Mazz (Vice President) - John Mazz is your average Catholic republican siding beside Bush because he is against abortion. The word compassionate conservative comes to mind, along with the Iraq war and Death Penalty. John is a good guy who is unwavering once he makes up his mind. John Mazz is the key to public relations in the nation as he is much more in touch with the public than the president. Party: Boblican
Jag3k (Secretary of Code) - A rough and tough member of the administration, Jag3k doesn't take garbage from anyone. Rub him the wrong way and he'll lay the smackdown on you before you can even blink. Jag3k takes care of the difficult jobs of managing the forums and layout of the nation. There is nothing that goes on in the country without him knowing about it. Currently writing a third addition to his country's Patriot Act. Party: Boblican
Maci (Speaker of the Forums) - Maci is the administration's resident anarchist, and thus he gets himself into one of the highest positions of power. Maci is never afraid to spout off his political views and is a very competent member of the administrative staff. He is in the country most of the time (unlike much of the admin) and has a good relationship with the public, and yet handles his job seriously and well. Party: None
I:h:e:a:r:t:B:o:B: (Head Moderator)- IHB is well known as being the master mod, even though all of the moderators are equal in power. He is the guy who always goes and kills any sort of legislature the admin doesn't agree with. IHB takes his job a bit more seriously than his peers, and that causes him to be the head mod. Party: Boblican
Shalashaska (Attorney General)- The newest mod, Shalashaska is the only Moderator who did not finish high school (unless if you con't Blanje). Of course, that being said, he is one of the most intelligent forum citizens and uses his position excellently and sets a good example to all forum members. He has been in the shadows lately and seems to be planning something big. Party: Boblican
IBlackedOut (Moderator of Rock)- IBO is a fairly laid back moderator who enjoys good ol' hardcore rock n' roll. He's very fair and balanced and doesn't tend to use his moderative powers too much, but does use them from time to time when needed. He is former CEO of Bands United, an organization known for selling only Rock N' Roll c.d.s. Party: Demobob
Jester (Moderator of Fan Fiction) – Jester, as the name implies, is a bit goofier than some of his fellow mods. He uses his power to mess around with average citizens just for a good laugh. Jester has always actively involved and now is regulating the field, but his department is suffering, as is Blanje's. Party: Boblican
Blanje (Moderator of Fan Art) –Seeing as all the other moderator jobs had been taken, John gave his brother the job of moderator of Fan Art. Blanje hasn't showed up for work in several months. Last time he did, he was drunk. Party: Boblican
BearFrog (All Star of Criminal Investigation)- BearFrog is the All-Star of Criminal Investigation, which is pretty much another word for super cop. He tends to get frustrated when officials break the law and has high standards for government officers. BearFrog constantly tries to get reform in the forums. BearFrog has been very successful in both the world of literature, and in boxing (as a politician, he got reforms made for the sport). Party: Demobob
Spectre-X (All Star of Defense)- Spectre-X is well known as the angry guy. He is angry about many things, but his main beef on the forum is sheer "stupidity" of some of it's citizens. He has been called a "Grammar-Nazi" (mainly because he is trying to he is sick of poorly written letters and is trying desperately for education reform) and has just as many friends as enemies in the nation. He has recently left the forums out of frustration and is expected to come back after cooling off some steam. Party: Communist
Bovine Sith (All Star of Debate) – One of the most active All Stars, Bovine Sith does everything he can to keep the forums from going straight to hell. He can't solve all of the forums problems, but without his voice of reason the forums would probably cease to exist. His job is to moderate the debates in the administration in either elections or debates about certain laws. Party: Boblican
Bobs Best Friend (All Star of Technology) – The most computer smart of the All Stars, BBF was one of the founders of The Big Geeks Club and has a very powerful and blunt wit, almost like a baseball bat. He tends to be very straightforward and make some seemingly stupid comments, but with a keen eye one can notice that he is perhaps even smarter than those ranked above him. Why he hasn't taken over yet, we will not know. Party: Boblican
Migos Username (All Star of Fan Fiction) – Migos is an intelligent and well respected admin member that nobody seems to have a beef with. He is the author of many of the forums best fan fics and he is considered to be one of the funniest all stars, if not the funniest. He tends to be in the country less frequently than other all stars, as he is foreigner and tends to visit his homeland often. Party: Socialist
Cyber B (All Star of Fan Art)- Cyber B is undoubtedly the best artist in the forums, and thus is why she gained the position of All Star of Fan Art. She is very kind, innocent and sweet and makes adorable (almost huggable) sprites. Rumors of a romantic relationship with John Mazz are floating about.
Party: Boblican
RTNFargoth (Super Member) – The Anti-Spammer Extremist, RTNFargoth has a long standing rivalry with Tokusou Sentai Blessranger (an evil terrorist). Fargoth was once the head of the anti-spammer movement, but is getting old a weary and seems to be moving towards retirement. TSB gets under Fargoth's skin more than any other person alive. Party: Boblican
StevenGuy (Super Member) - Former stand up comic, StevenGuy is a bit more fun to be around than Fargoth when there is a problem on the forums. StevenGuy has not really done anything to innovate the forums, nor has he destroyed them. However, his excellent character is engraved in the memories of the citizens. Party: Boblican
Kermit (Secretary of Arts and Literature) – Kermit, the well respected and loved citizen is head of the Arts and Literature department, ironically has horrible grammar and is incredibly difficult to understand. Still, he is a senior member and has respect for his experiences in the forums. He has very close ties with the upper admin, except with Jag3k, who is still angry about Kermit trying to take over his position after he was shot. Party: Demobob
Zeldarulah (Secretary of Media) – The former spammer Zeldarulah was once enemies with half the admin, but now he is doing his part in monitoring the media and even runs a few governmentally owned programs, including a reality show called NC Survivor 4. Zeldarulah is a devout Zeldian and is trying to break down that wall between church and state, as are other members of the admin. Party: Boblican
Gado The Lion (Anime Club President) – Gado The Lion is the Neptune Circle dream. He came the country with nothing but the clothes on his back, and he worked hard to become a millionaire. He is very charitable and runs the Anime Club, an independent organization with ties to the government. The Anime Club sells Anime, whose profits go to charity. Party: Boblican
Lord Earthworm (Under Secretary of Rock)- Assistant to IBlackedOut, Lord Earthworm embodies the spirit of Rock N' Roll. He is raging against the machine and does his part to keep the administration on their toes. He'll do anything to get a rise out of his higher ranking officers and has many enemies. Party: Demobob
Turtle-Man (Secretary of Wrestling)- TM is the Secretary of Wrestling, meaning he regulates all of the wrestling. He was once a political opponent of Rocky Pinnicle, and both did slanderous campaigning. After he lost the election, eeeee (his former name and real name) got plastic surgery and changed his name to Turtle-Man and became Secretary of Wrestling. He fears that one day his secret may be revealed. He is a master of manipulation. Party: Boblican
