Sentients, for this place "Magic Carpet Ride" would be apropriate.

Some interesting dicussions on Theme Song. Should we start an open vote or poll to decide?
- Kippers will post something on powers of the leader when he gets the chance.
- Reboot and I will make an announcement soon regarding the Security Office.

For a theme song how about "I'm a Little Teapot"? Everyone knows the words and there is action involved.

<Pops head up from desk> I think we should rewrite the lyrics to "Knights of the Round Table" from Holy Grail to fit the LMB myself. <Buries head back in desk>

OK, this is overdue, but let me tell you, Reboot and I have been extremely diligent on this. For those of you that don’t know this, Reboot and I have been long-standing ‘enemies’ in the LMB—not really enemies in the fighting sense (well, kinda actually), but more like opposite ends of every spectrum. There was compromising on both parts, and I see this as something that is as perfect as it could ever get. Well done, ‘Boot!
Security Office Article written by Cobalt Kid and Reboot
Goal of Security Officer to Guard Legion World from: external invasions from large forces or singular beings, internal threats from persons in the act of criminal behavior.
Structure
Chief of Security The Office of Security is headed by Cobalt Kid, the Chief of Security, which is a position he holds for life. It is not an elected position, and he cannot be removed by the LMB leader, the LMB Deputy Leader, or any member of the LMB or Legion World populace. The Chief of Security answers directly to the Security Committee on all matters that are too important for one sentient to decide.
The Dark Stu Clause This position acts a balance to LMB leader, should the LMB leader act against the LMB, Legion World, the very spirit of the LMB or in a criminal manner at all. Therefore, the LMB Leader has absolutely no official power over the Chief of Security in security matters . However, it is LMB protocol for the Chief of Security to adhere to the rulings of the LMB leader in all other matters, and to defer to the LMB leader’s judgment when there is a crisis on Legion World involving the LMB at large.
Addendum Outside of Legion World, the Chief of Security has no official power in the chain of command.
Addendum 2 In case of emergencies, the Chief of Security can act on his own accord without going to the Security Committee to ensure his job is done in a timely matter. He is expected to act within the limits of his job and to not over step his bounds.
Examples of when to do this: Royal Inquisitor kills Giant Squid, StuBots attack Legion World, the Red Bee buries someone alive, etc.
Security Staff 1. It is entirely up the Chief of Security to form his staff as he sees fit.
2. Space Ranger shall act as the Deputy Chief of Security, second only to Cobalt Kid, and shall assume his responsibilities as the chain of command dictates.
3. Matlock shall act as the Senior Security Officer, second in rank only to Cobalt Kid and Space Ranger, and shall assume their responsibilities as the chain of command dictates.
4. The Chief of Security may maintain two operatives at all times that remain a secret to Legion World and the LMB at large.
Security Committee A Security Committee will oversee all major operations of the Office of Security, to ensure that the Chief of Security uses his power wisely and has balances against his control. This would include decisions to arrest and prosecute fellow LMBers and use his Security powers outside of Legion World (re: continue an investigation that leaves the Legion World premises). Further, any Security initiative involving the majority of the active LMB or Legion World population must have committee approval.
Committee Membership Once on this Committee, these members are on the committee for a duration of their own discretion.
- This is not an elected committee, as election focuses will be on the LMB leader and Deputy Leader.
- This is not an appointed committee, as the power split between the LMB Leader and the Security Office is a central theme of the Office itself.
- If a member decides to retire from the Committee, the remaining members shall vote and appoint a new LMB representative.
- A member of the committee may be replaced if they miss 5 or more Security Committee meetings in a period of 150 days. This is entirely up to the other members of the Security Committee.
- Any member of this Committee who is elected LMB Leader or LMB Deputy Leader shall lose their place on the Committee for the duration of their term.
This committee shall include the three ranking Security Officers, with the Chief of Security as Chair. It includes: Cobalt Kid, Chairman Space Ranger Matlock Reboot Varalent RTVU Lightning Lad
Emergency Alternates: Invisible Brainiac and Fat Cramer. note- Cobalt Kid, as Chairman only votes when there is need for a tie-breaker
Rationale First, Reboot and Cobalt Kid’s opinions differ so greatly, and have done so publicly for so long, that there is no doubt that both can serve to temper the others extreme positions. Reboot’s involvement lends credibility to any large security initiatives. Varalent is a long time LMBer and member of the Legion World community, and has stayed active within it for some time. As a former LMB leader, he understands how things are run, and he has a distanced perspective from the Security Office, as well as an understanding of how the process works. RTVU offers fresh eyes to Security matters, while maintaining a familiarity with LMB related events. As a relatively new member in light of the entire history, as well as of not yet serving as LMB leader or deputy leader, he acts as a spokesman for newer members, albeit with a years experience in LMB matters. Lightning Lad, as a founder of Legion World, brings another important perspective to Security matters occurring there. Psyonia Protocols Basically, if the Security Chief and/or Security Office are deemed to be unable to perform their duties (i.e. - gone insane and stuff), Crujectra and Mykel of Psyonia (the LMBers known as Spellbinder and Crusader) will use their touchstones to channel the psionic might of the planet Psyonia (as seen in the Shadowspell OneVision ) and telepathically subdue Cobalt Kid and any member of the Security Staff seemed dangerous or incapable of performing their sworn duties. this section written by Princess Crujectra Chip in Head Technology As an aside, Reboot and Cobalt Kid have come to a formal understanding. The ‘Chip in Head’ technology, created by the Royal Inquisitor and the Red Bee, but recently has been confiscated by the Office of Security for other uses. This agreement states that all ‘Chip in Head’ technology is to be destroyed and the Office of Security shall no longer use it to monitor potential enemies of Legion World and the LMB. This will help further the cause of a mutually agreeable Cobalt Kid/Reboot alliance in helping reshape the Office of Security.

I have some further checks and balances on the Security Office, mainly involving the LMB military (and, hopefully, the resident LMB active super-team, which we haven't seen yet ... it's gonna rock...) but I will chime in on them after I finish the LMB Leader powers.

Also, I'd like to see some debate on the Cobalt Kid-Reboot Security Office document, if any sentient so desires.

But Kippers, the LMB doesn't have a military Those are private armies of EDE, Greybird and myself, which is why they aren't allowed on Legion World! See here for the full story!

Frankly, I am honored to be nomianted for this position to be a memeber of this asture committe.
I pledge to do my best to help repersent the newer memebers of the LMB and help keep Cobalt and Reboot from killing each other.
So is it my understanding that only the Princess can lay the smack on Cobalt when he goes crazy? Will this decesion have to be made in committe or is it at the discreation of the Princess?

I don't know about all this Constitutional Law stuff, but the common law around here says that damn near anyone can take a swipe at Cobie when he gets out of line.
