Going to have to agree with the above. Remove the sprite adjusting, and just implement a "examine feature" which tells you whether they are smaller/taller than you, or if they are average for that species.

Results of the Primary Elections Translated to Tau Ceti Basic Those who took to the polling booths (both within designated areas of the Nralakk Federation, and abroad) determined to have a say on who they believe should guide the Nralakk Federation, which has resulted in confirmation pouring into our offices, with verified statements concluding that Weashbi Jrugl has been sworn in for yet another term after being declared victorious in their vying for the Grand Councillor’s seat. Despite being counted earlier this morning, the final ballots have only just now been released by the Grand Council; Weashbi Jrugl secured roughly 52.3% of the overall votes, with Ormish Jrolk being declared runner up at 26.7%, and lastly Kalq’Qi Weibii finishing off with most of her votes originating from the Traverse at 21%. Grand Councillor Weashbi Jrugl’s first order of business within their second term has been to reshuffle the Grand Council, with Ormish Jrolk being declared the new Advisor of Economic Development. Grand Councillor Weashbi Jrugl has yet to comment on their reasoning behind the reshuffle, and inclusion of Advisor-Appoint Jrolk, it can be speculated that the Grand Councillor is likely to loosen the restrictions in the coming months in relation to megacorporations within the Nralakk Federation and begin revitalizing the economy through the usage of external contractors. It is unknown how this will affect the State-Owned-Enterprises operating already. Candidate Weibii has seemingly disappeared off the face of Qerrbalak and has resulted in troublesome bunches grouping into demonstrations within the fringes of the Traverse, that have begun to state that election was the final hope for a re-imagined Nralakk Federation despite the Grand Councillor’s recent announcement, and many still believe such is now lost without Candidate Weibii at the helm of the Nralakk Federation.

Tupkala Reformation Announcement Translated to Tau Ceti Basic The Grand Councillor of the Nralakk Federation has unveiled their plans for the Tupkala through the Tupkala Reformation Act, legislation focused on tackling the problems within the division after evidence gathered by the Ruupkala left them with no choice but to enact such drastic measures. Grand Councillor Weashbi Jrugl addressed the nation shortly after 8 PM Tau Ceti Standard last night. Extracts of the announcement have been transcribed below: The announcement has resulted in some questioning details regarding the evidence submitted, even more in a state of disbelief. The confirmation that the division acted against the ideals of the Nralakk Federation has certainly left an impact on all citizens. For how long has this been going on? How many sentient violations have they committed? We can only put our trust in the Grand Council and hope their guidance continues to lead us to prosperity.

Tupkala Division Undergoes Massive Reforms Translated to Tau Ceti Basic The Grand Council of the Nralakk Federation has announced their revision of the Tupkala Division of the Nralakk Federation Security Forces. Following criticisms of abhorrent behaviour depicted by the Skrell, both during the events that transpired a little over a year ago that resulted in the total shutdown of the Tzqul Archives, but also the detainment of an individual just hours ago on a NanoTrasen Research Facility. At the time of this article release, approximately a dozen Tupkala have been evaluated and subsequently retired after investigations unearthed erroneous track histories that have resulted in less than pleasant outcomes for those on the receiving end. Decades of information related to those that misused their position are slowly rearing their heads. Whilst there is no solid information affirming the suspension of the Tupkala Division, the Grand Council has released a cease-and-desist order to the various Election Officials scattered across the Orion Spur, and have mandated that they return as soon as they possibly can. It is unknown how this may affect the election, but we believe the Grand Council will do whatever it can to ensure fair and democratic elections. With the Tupkala underfire, who are our frontline protectors against those that wish to see the Nralakk Federation crumble? We will keep you updated on this developing story, with the hope that the Grand Council will prevail and continue to guide us to prosperity.

Whispers of Colonial Conflict Translated to Tau Ceti Basic The Primary Elections have spread far and wide throughout the galaxy and some skeptics are concerned over the arising dissent of the Skrell. Various local stations have been reporting civil disobedience and organized protests around the Traverse, calling the events a “rogue current” and overall are upset. Pockets of more organized outsiders have begun rallying around the flag of Candidate Weibii, reporting that their voice in higher Federation echelons has been silenced. Moreover, skirmishes and disappearances have increasingly grown in the outskirts of the Traverse, and citizens are becoming more and more concerned over what this could mean for the Nralakk Federation. While the Federation has undergone a myriad of political reforms over the thousands of years, internal conflict could prove to have lasting effects on the galactic climate for years to come. Political analyst Jen’ralla-qan had this to say, “The Skrell have always been united by their appreciation of not only each other but of the stars as a whole. It is highly concerning that the Traverse is so outspoken about the recent events that have rocked the Nralakk Federation. ” Some political insiders have expressed opinions regarding a civil war or a “colonial war”. Originally colonies of the Nralakk Federation, the Traverse region has always expressed a uniquely different culture than the inside sectors. This separation could potentially fuel a lasting and brutal conflict. The Grand Councillor’s cabinet has been quiet on this issue for the time being, but that is expected to change in the coming weeks.

Commencement of the Primary Elections Translated to Tau Ceti Basic After a long campaign trial, the Primary Election for Grand Councillor has begun. Ballots are being sent to the furthest reaches of the Nralakk Federation, and political analysts are beginning to plot their predictions. Candidates Ormish Jrolk and Kalq'Qi Weibii have begun their last-minute pushes for support, taking to communication channels and live appearances. Incumbent Councillor Weashbi Jrugl seems unhindered by the upstart opponents, reportedly saying that he is going to “watch the results with a decided mind”. Candidate Weibii has polled exceptionally well with outer systems in the weeks prior to the election and is expected to continue to do so. Weibii has announced her support undeniably to the more isolated systems in the Nralakk Federation and has begun a grassroots campaign in the weeks leading up to the Primary. Political analysts expect Weibii to win the outer systems in a landslide, but skeptics are concerned whether or not this support could win Weibii the entire election. Candidate Jrolk, accused by their opponents as being a “xenophile”, has largely been advocating for a more integrated Nralakk Federation alongside other galactic contenders. As the Federation becomes more reliant on outside trade and scientific treaties, Jrolk has suggested that the Skrell needs to “lock-in” their positions as cosmic masters before they are overtaken by another alien species. Besides, Jrolk aims to focus Skrellian society on a more capitalistic economic model to benefit from their higher development and longer lifespan. As the Grand Council Elections are every decade, the victor of this election will have unprecedented access into the skrellian political system and will be able to aim the Nralakk Federation in the direction they choose for the following years to come.

ELECTION QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS SESSION Translated to Tau Ceti Basic This past weekend many submitted questions that they’d hoped to see answered by three candidates, obviously out of hope to learn more about the possible future Leader of the Nralakk Federation.

Grand Councillor Weashbi Jurgl had the following Viv-ID conversations: It seems that Grand Councillor Jrugl wishes to spice up their next term, should they be determined victorious in their second campaign. Whilst maintaining the core themes that secured their election almost a decade ago to the date, only time will tell whether the Nralakk Federation will enter a new period of prosperity with the same figurehead that we’ve grown so attached to.

Candidate Ormish had the following Viv-ID conversations: Answers provided by Candidate Ormish allude to a very different society that one we’ve come to know, should they win their race for the seat of the Grand Councillor. Whilst we can only speculate, Candidate Ormish’s background in Genetics and Megacorporations will surely lead to several reforms. We will continue to compile the Q&A Session held by all three candidates and release them as soon as they are ready.
