Hello Xitizens of Agnostica!
First and foremost, I would like to thank all three of you who voted for me! I know some people had issues with logging in on election day, and apparently voting for State Minister has been restricted to Senators only. But we got there in the end and I was elected in a landslide victory ;)
It appears that Ximboland will be going through some drastic changes over the coming weeks, but for the time being I intend to continue business as normal. As I mentioned in my program, I intend to hold some form of contest every week, on a rotating three week schedule. Our first week will look a little different as we get started, but then we should fall into a routine.
Our first Fashion Contest is announced here. It will officially open for entries Saturday, April 6 at 0:00 Ximboland Time, and run until Saturday April 13 at 11:59:59 Ximboland Time. All participants of the Fashion Contests will get custom banners.
The next contest will be a Mini Contest. The theme and requirements for that weeks Mini Contest will be announced at the start of the contest. Mini Contest threads will be posted sometime on Saturday, before the end of the Fashion Contest. Mini Contests will be open until the following Saturday at 11:59:59 Ximboland Time. The first Mini Contest will run from April 13 to April 20.
The last contest on the weekly rotation will not really be a contest, but instead a raffle. Any citizen of Agnostica will be able to enter just by posting in the thread, and you will be able to accrue multiple entries by posting multiple times. I will start the raffle threads on Saturdays, right before the Mini Contest closes. Raffle threads will also give a sneak peak at the next week's Fashion Contest Theme. Raffle threads will close Saturday at 11:59:59 Ximboland Time, right after the next Fashion Contest begins. Our first raffle will be held from April 20 to April 27.
Then we will start the whole rotation over again! I will judge the entries personally, except the raffle, which will be decided by an online randomizer. Prizes for the contests will remain the same each week and will breakdown as follows:
First Place: 300 Diamonds
Second Place: 150 Diamonds

If you have any contest ideas, please pass them along! I am always open to suggestions. And as always, feel free to message me if you have any other questions, suggestions, or feedback for me! I respond to my private messages much faster than comments or forum posts, but I will eventually get to everything you send my way.
Thank you all once again for your support, and I hope I can make my term as SM a silver lining in this absolutely Nutty storm cloud!
