Sorry that I couldn’t get one in . I’ve been way too busy lately.

1000 posts!

Introduction
Thank you everybody for helping me reach 1000 posts. I would like to especially thank all of the members of the SPA and the Space Shop. Every single one of you means a lot to me. You all make me happy. Now, first let’s go into detail about the SPA and who I would like to thank here.
The SPA
My largest creation. This amazing association has grown exponentially and out of control. We are now the biggest active shop association on scratch, even in a world where the USS has been brought back. The thing I thought that I’d highlight is that we are a community. Yes, we all constructive,y improve each other’s Shops. But we are also a community. We are all friends. Think. If you were taken to a random SPA member chances are you would be able to have a conversation. I find that that community means a lot to me. We all like to support each other. To me, even if we had just one shop, if we had this community I would be happy. The community is what defines the SPA. It is what makes us unique. It is what makes us… us.
The Space Shop
Don’t worry, I care about you too! The Space Shop is great as well. The SPA wouldn’t exist without it. The Space Shop has grown in an amazing way over time. You are amazing. Every single little member. One persistent problem over time was that I was taking too many orders and our staff weren’t too active. We have overcome this. We have improved. This is the thing with The Space Shop- we are very adaptable. All of you are amazing. The Space Shop is now a fully-functioning Shop with many members. We a now regarded as “large” . So yeah. Thanks so much. You are so reliable and helpful.
Individuals
I would now like to thank a few individuals.
GrahamSH
You truly inspire me. Your amazing persistence. I love the way you treat failure as an opportunity to rise up. You constantly improve and you never give up. You deserve all opportunities you are given. You will be successful in life, no matter what you become, I can guarantee that. Thank you for being the second member of the SPA. Thank you.. for being you.
MasterOfTheTiger
You really do deserve to have your name here. I wouldn’t have created the Space Shop or the SPA if I hadn’t have seen your dedication to scratch shops. Honestly, you are an inspiration to me. I look up to you. You deserve to be successful in whatever you do, both in real life and on scratch. Thank you so much.
Ncro2005Yay! You win! Comment on my profile: I tried eating an orange. It failed so bad. Award the prize to ____
You made SPA the way it is, and continue to shape it. As co-owner you did a great job. Now, as head of shops, you do just as well. I love your atitude to everything in life, and I love the way you stay happy, and cheer me up. Think of the activity check. You ran it extremely well, very organised and you made sure that all of the shops got it (I can barely add a shop to a list in under a week ). You have shaped the SPA so nicely, and are an inspiration. For this… I thank you. You will be successful in life.

Another amazing person, who has shaped the SPA and inspired me. Your dedication and service to the SPA and the Space Shop I outstanding. The partnership between your shop and my association. The running of SPA News. When I created SPA News I really wanted it to be organised and do well. You rose to the Occassion. Your organisation skills are amazing. Thank you so much, you are a great part of my life. I’m sure you will be very successful in life.
Poppybunny
You inspire me a lot, and deserve to be successful in real life and on scratch. You thought you would get 1-2 votes, but (as the polls showed), you won. Congratulations, first of all. You have been and will continue to be a great leader. Just remember, try everything life gives you. You will be successful in many things. Thanks so much for being an inspiration and so helpful.
SwordieTheCoder
Haha, I didn’t forget about you! You have been my best friend in real life. You inspire me too, you know. Eventhough I have moved towns, you still have a place in me, and that place will never be taken away. You join me in every journey I take. You support me when I feel sad. You cheer with me when I am happy. You are an amazing human being a deserve to be successful as a doctor? Thank you.
Jromagnoli
Thank you for being an inspiration, the way you are so active on the forums, and yet so successful with projects is inspiration. You coding and artistic abilities are amazing. Thank you for being so happy to help me out with the SPA. You deserve every follower you have. You have been so helpful. Congrats on 6000 posts (I know I’m really late). You are quite an inspiration.
Holly_The_Cat and Woofless04
Thanks for joining the NSNP so early. You inspire me with your courage to start a shop like this. Your shops will be successful, and you will be successful too, both in real life and on scratch. Thank you.
To everybody not listed
Don’t worry, you are just as important to me. Every single member of the SPA and the Space Shop- in fact, everyone on scratch deserves to be successful. You all inspire me greatly. I wish you all good luck with life and on scratch. Thank you.
Concluding statement
Thank you, everybody, for helping me teach this amazing milestone. I never thought I would be able to stand up and say that I had 1000 posts. Scratch, and it’s community mean a lot to me. Thank you for your patience in reading this long speech. Thank you all

So yeah. This is my 1000th post

congrats!

A vote has started for the rest of Section 9, other than 9.1. Please note that I have removed the forms as they are not needed as a part of laws. The forms will still be implemented. Sorry for how late this was, I’m just really busy.

I know I said I'd do it later, but the first issue of SPANews is now available

excuse me, but ‘Rules’ in ‘New Rules’ in your newspaper is spelled ‘Roles’.

No, it means Roles

Spoiler: soon I am going to automatically implement a law stating that Presidential candidates will have preferences. Preferances mean that if they don’t come first or second they automatically give all of their votes to their second preference. If their second preference didn’t come first or second then it gives to their third preference and so on. Also, I will be enstating a rule which says that you can be a representative of only one shop. More details will be given later today.

As a judge, I believe that the decision to limit representatives to only representing one shop is against the interests of shop owners and should have to go through regular procedures. Please would you consult the other judges about this before an auto-pass.

Ok, sorry, I didn’t go in-depth enough when explaining that decision. The main reason I am making this move is because (as SwordieTheCoder noted to me) ncro2005 and poppybunny both got the same number of votes, but one had 2 more people vote for them (I won’t say which one). One could regard this as unfair and not very democratic. After all, if the power is concentrated within a few people (like me) who have 3 votes, they can influence decision making in unfair ways.

Greetings, everyone. After some concerns raised by python_megapixel, I have decided to host an unofficial vote to see what I should do. If it is turned down we will have an official vote, otherwise it will be automatically passed. Voting is open to anyone, outside or inside of the SPA (I can’t restrict voting anyways so yeah). Thanks! Vote here: https://strawpoll.com/y6se9s7c !

Ok, thanks! It looks like it will be automatically passed.

Section 9 I agree with completely: it should be easy for shops to have access to experienced people to help run their shop.
