The Island of Nerdfighteria

[Migdala Vered]

This is the e-mail I sent John on 9 August.
I just got a great idea...
Well, I thought it was great...

Okay, so I'm on Skype with Katie the Ningmaster and a few others. I asked one of them who'd just entered the chat how they were and he said "I'm well. Also hungry. How are you?" And I said "I'm hungry and well, too. Let's meet up at IHOP, cha?"

And then we started wishing that we lived closer together so we could do stuff like that. Someone said we should all move to Chicago and call it Nerdfighter Town. That's great and all, but because you're writing a book on deserted islands... all the Nerdfighters should pitch together money so we can buy a deserted island and then you could use it for research and it could be named Nerdfighteria and then we could all live there and it would be made of awesome... I'm like extremely excited about this. Hence the run-on sentence. Let me know what you think!

C'mon Nerdfighters. How bloody cool would that be if we actually did that? I know it'd take time and effort. Some of us might even die out before it comes real. But I'm incredibly enthusiastic that it can happen. If you believe it can happen, then it can. What do you say? Want to make it real? Yeah? No? Thoughts?

Think of it... What started as a yearlong project between brothers turns into a web sensation, turns into a worldwide community, turns into an actual place you can visit.

Please don't be mean to me... I only had a dream.

PS- I'm looking for private islands for sale, lovies.

Then let's get cracking! Get John and Hank on board.

[President Clive-φ-Davidson]

YES. Okay, ideas:
John and Hank.
Sponsorships.
Donations.
Direct Debits.

[Cyril Lunt]

All four.

Human nature being what it is, battles for supremacy would break out before too long--nerdly awesomeness aside--and a series of long, painful, and flaccid wars would ensue.

Death by slapfight.

(C'mon, you know none of us can throw a punch. ;) )

[Cyril Lunt]

Which is why we should probably make the government now, so that we won't have fighting in the future.

[President Clive-φ-Davidson]

Okay:
How? -will we do this?
Where? -will we do this?
What? -will we do?

[Cyril Lunt]

All of those questions have a simple answer: I can set up a forum on invisionfree to organize all the wheelings and dealings of getting Nerdfighteria off the ground, manage fundraisers, and other governmental things (eventually draft a constitution and draft the letter of succession from Canada [if we choose Mouton]). We can hold elections there until we get the island, and it'd act as the parliament or congress, again, until we get the island.

[President Clive-φ-Davidson]

Okay, do it.
You might want to draw up a site plan.
Remember, actions don't speak, but they're still more effective than words.

I'll add more when we get more people into the site.

[President Clive-φ-Davidson]

Well done, I like the look of that.

[Cyril Lunt]

Thanks. Let's just hope alot of people join it so that it could be effective.

[President Clive-φ-Davidson]

Yes. Hope.
