Ruling name	Date issued	Vote	Summary of ruling
#6.1 (Discord Server Jurisdiction)	24 Jul 2020	Supported by Nangka and New Arkados. South Miruva abstained.	Determined that additional legislation is required for the General Assembly to specifically extend its legal jurisdiction and exert control over the social Discord server Initiated by the related debate on control over the region's social Discord server and withdrawn legislation seeking to automatically make the Secretary an administrator of the server
#6.2 (Discord Server Jurisdiction)	30 Jul 2020	Supported by Nangka and New Arkados. South Miruva abstained.	Reaffirmed #6.1, determining that the General Assembly may pass legislation to extend its legal jurisdiction over the social Discord server, but that it has no inherent jurisdiction over it Initiated by a further inquiry by Speaker Kavagrad following ruling #6.1 questioning whether the largely autonomous social Discord server should be responsible to a government elected by voters who may not be members of the server
