| The '''[[Plushie_Foxy]] DM scandal''' occurred when [[Plushie_Foxy]] DMed [[sophru]] on discord asking about who a non-Empire ally was when being asked by [[gorkymoo1119]] during a discussion relating to Nubian foreign affairs and [[Foreign relations of Nubia|relations]]. He would deny that he ever DMed a Nubian about it and, when evidence was posted, did not address the incident. It happened during the final day of the [[February 2021 Nubia elections]] (February 1st), in which he was running in the [[February 2021 Nubia Minister of Foreign Affairs election|Minister of Foreign Affairs race]], which he would later lose in a landslide to [[gorkymoo1119]].

| | |
| ==Background==
| |
| | |
| ===Registration===
| |
| Once the elections were announced by Emperor [[twomoo1119]], several candidates would announce their candidacies for the Minister of Foreign Affairs. [[Gorkymoo1119]] was the one [[Predictions for the February 2021 Nubia elections|projected]] to win and frontrunner for the position alongside [[Yoshigamer1298]] (prior to [[Yoshigamer1298]] dropping out). [[Plushie_Foxy]] was not well-known in the Nubian community when he registered and the elections would contribute to his future reputation.
| |
| | |
| ===Debate===
| |
| The question would origin during the official election debate, when [[gorkymoo1119]] would request [[vaguemoo119]] to name him one non-Empire Nubian ally. [[Vaguemoo119]] would fail to do this, which would be [[Gorkymoo1119's campaign for the February 2021 Nubia elections|campaigned]] on by [[gorkymoo1119]] the next day, saying that a 'Foreign Affairs Minister should be able to name an ally'.
| |
| | |
| ===Sophru endorsement ===
| |
| During [[Plushie Foxy's campaign for the February 2021 Nubia elections|Plushie_Foxy's campaign]] for Minster of Trade and Commerce, [[sophru]] would be the only Nubian to endorse him. As a result of this, [[Plushie_Foxy]] thought [[sophru]] was an useful contact.
| |
| | |
| ==Incident==
| |
| | |
| ===Question and conversation===
| |
| [[Gorkymoo1119]] would ask [[Plushie_Foxy]] to name their closest non-Empire ally in the #election-discussion channel in the [[Nubia]] discord, in an attempt to campaign on an alleged lack of knowledge in the foreign affairs field by [[Plushie_Foxy]]. After [[Plushie_Foxy]] failed to answer, [[gorkymoo1119]] requested [[Plushie_Foxy]] to name one ally. For the next 3 minutes, [[Plushie_Foxy]] attempted to suggest that he had a list on his computer for a [[Foreign relations of Nubia|list of allies]], and was accused of stalling by [[gorkymoo1119]] (which he denied).
| |
| | |
| ===Initial DMing===
| |
| Due to his trust in [[sophru]] after her endorsement for him during his [[Plushie Foxy's campaign for the February 2021 Nubia elections|campaign]] for Minister of Trade and Commerce, he would DM her, asking if she knew a Nubian ally. She would respond with '[[Katanga]] I guess', and [[Plushie_Foxy]] would thank her for this response.
| |
| | |
| ===Answer===
| |
| [[Plushie_Foxy]] would then respond with [[Katanga]], however [[gorkymoo1119]] would tell him that [[Katanga]] was in the [[Nubia|Second Nubian Empire]]. However, he would soon stop after being messaged by [[sophru]] on Discord about her recent conversation with [[Plushie_Foxy]].
| |
| | |
| ==Discovery==
| |
| [[Sophru]] started her DMs with [[gorkymoo1119]] in regards to this with her saying 'Uh whyd he do this' whilst waiting for a picture to load. Once the picture loaded, [[gorkymoo1119]] would see that it was clear evidence of [[Plushie_Foxy]] asking 'Hey, what is an ally of [[Nubia]]?'. After [[gorkymoo1119]] responded about how this was in relation to an active debate in the Nubian discord, she showed another screenshot of her response to [[Plushie_Foxy]].
| |
| | |
| After some minor conversation, [[gorkymoo1119]] requested if he could use the picture she sent, with her confirming that she'd allow it.
| |
| | |
| ==Confrontation==
| |
| [[Gorkymoo1119]] would confront [[Plushie_Foxy]] regarding his discovery but not share the screenshot, with [[Plushie_Foxy]] denying doing it and asking 'And plus, who gave you the right to snoop around candidate DMs, hmm?'. [[Gorkymoo1119]] would proceed to post a screenshot as evidence of it happening. After this, [[Plushie_Foxy]] would ignore the situation in #election-discussion and moving it to #general.
| |
| | |
| === Allegations of 'invasion of privacy' ===
| |
| [[Plushie_Foxy]] would suggest to [[gorkymoo1119]] that by sharing the DMs he was invading the privacy of his other candidate and that he had no permission to leak the DMs. [[Gorkymoo1119]], however, did have permission from [[sophru]] and pointed out that he did not invade the privacy of [[Plushie_Foxy]] in legal terms or by the terms used in the Nubian law. The public would mostly react suggesting that [[gorkymoo1119]] was right and that [[Plushie_Foxy]] was in the wrong.
| |
| | |
| == Aftermath ==
| |
| [[Gorkymoo1119]] would go onto win the position of Minster of Foreign Affairs by a landslide, with [[Plushie_Foxy]] coming in last by first choice votes, partially due to this scandal. He would also lose the support of [[sophru]] and several others suggested voting anyone but [[Plushie_Foxy]] for the position of Minister of Foreign Affairs.{{Feb2021NubiaElection}}
