Plushie_Foxy DM scandal
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 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), which he lost 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 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 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 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 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 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.
