The following is the Emissary Report for October 2016.
Regional Events
The current Council of Nine (government of 10000 Islands) is composed of:
- Grub (Founder/Chief Executive)
- Boltor (WA Delegate)
- Markanite (Minister of Education)
- HumanSanity (Minister of Immigration)
- The Candy Lane (Minister of Labor)
- Dominion of Compassion (Senior Senator for New Republica South)
- Ananke II (Senator for Blue Canaria North)
- Coromandall (Senator for Lyonesse East)
- Lower Columbia (Senator for Himes West)
- The month saw a big jump in our regional population, going from 1700 to 2300, partly due to the recent influx of new players from Imgur and Reddit, but mostly thanks to our prolific recruiters Escanaba and Boltor. With nearly 700 confirmed recruits this month Escanaba is leading the pack. Not to be outdone though, Boltor managed to reach more than 300 confirmed recruits this month. Thanks for your hard work!
- Coromandall helped out as well and earned the Immigration Achievement award upon reaching 30 recruits.
- Also thanks to the rest our recruiters this month; Louisistan, Kortexia, Isles de Taylor, Charbasauria, The Candy Lane, Aersoldorf and Hahiha.
- The House Cup and Shield competition also happened this month. Congrats to the members of the House of Wordy for winning the House Cup, the House of Boltor for winning the House Shield, and to Boltor individually on winning the House Sceptre.
- Ingame this month saw Surprise taking the top spot as 1st in the world for Most Pro-Market, while Dustwind, Blogotopia, Tzo, FreeGunsForAll and Coreras all got into the top 10 of the world for Most Influential. In 10ki we’re all for spreading the (influence) love around.
Fraton reached 6th in the world for Largest Gambling Industry. Can’t say it comes as a surprise for the rest of us, since his casinos have been fleecing us for months.
Not content to be 4rd in the world for most influential, Blogotopia also managed to reach 9th in the World for Largest Black Market. Makes you wonder if there’s a connection... Figuring that you can always use more top 10 placements, Blogotopia then became 1st in the world for Most Rebellious Youth.
Continuing his streak of making everyone else jealous of his amazing nation, Tzo reached 3rd in the world for Most Compassionate Citizens, 5th in the world for Most Cheerful Citizens and 2nd in the world for Nicest Citizens.
Political News
- Boltor was elected delegate, succeeding Louisistan, who’s had an eventful period as delegate and is now looking forward to a peaceful time as XO of TITO.
- Ananke became the new senator for Blue Canaria North, while Dominion of Compassion won another term as senator for New Republica South.
- Minister of Immigration HumanSanity is still looking for a
deputy. For someone interested in the political side of NS it’s a great opportunity to get involved with the inner workings of 10ki.
- Delegate Boltor is also currently looking for emissaries to the regions Philosophy 115 and ITALIA, both longtime friends of 10ki.

Around the Islands
- The 10ki
Poet Laureate Contest was held this past month and once again won by Major Aersoldorf. The voters of 10ki are clearly loth to change a winning formula. Thanks to Klopstock and The Candy Lane for giving Aersoldorf a fight. Better luck next time, guys!
- Grub's
10 Million Taco Fund recovered from being in a loss in September to now having a return greater than 1 million tacos, with the fund ending on the 1st of November.
- The featured nations in 10ki this month were Pazakistan
- WW:50: Pandora’s Boxes, hosted by Aersoldorf, ended with the werewolves winning. Signups for WW:51: Curse of the Pirate Treasure have started and will be hosted by none other than Louis I. Stan, Esquire.
- In Taco Islands new delegate Boltor is currently trying to shoot a
Boltywood movie. So far the actors seem a bit inept though.
- Meanhile the
SS Ator Boltox fanfiction about the stormy relationship between delegate Boltor and tactical officer Ater Nox has reached 14 pages and shows no sign of slowing down. Finding itself with a taste for soap opera the 10ki public is waiting with baited breath to find out whether Boltor will make up with Ater Nox or spend his time admiring shovels.
- At the 10ki University it’s now possible to sign up for a class on the
history of weapons- Like previous years a certain segment of the 10ki population plans on going full zombie at halloween. Being rule abiding citizens, in between all the brain eating, they plan on gathering in the region 10000 Zombies and have already started
planning their rampage through NS. We wish them well and stand ready with cure missiles and all manner of weaponry at the gates of 10ki.
