Have you guys forgotten Nation States?

[Betheny]

Half the nations there are going poof.

Have you all forgotten it?!

[imported_Kranar]

I'm still there, I too noticed many nations going poof, but The Empire of the Players' Corner lives.

[Mint]

Not me, my nation will take over and rule you all soon.

[peam]

Yes.

[Bobmuhthol]

The nation "bobmuhthol_number_2" no longer exists.

Yes.

[imported_Kranar]

The Bobmuhthol is almost extinct in my nation. :sniffle:

[Ilvane]

I'm still doing it! :)

-A..Princess of Prestovia

[Sean]

Tijaystan running 274 million strong

But I'll admit i don't check in as often as I used to.

PS. I got bored when i started seeing the same issues over and over.

[Bobmuhthol]

As I played before, I cycled through all the issues multiple times. Playing again was less than exciting.

[Mint]

Aren't we allowed to create our own issues as well?

[Artha]

272 million poor, oppressed people strong.

Civil Rights: Unheard of
Economy: Powerhouse
Political Freedoms: Outlawed

[Snapp]

The hippie-state of Snappio is still going strong!

[Ambrosia]

[Hips]

[Miss X]

My lil nation Miralia is still going strong with its 100% income tax rate! woo!

[Skirmisher]

[Artha]

Ha. I have the only people stupider than Seanathon's.

[Ardwen]

Tijay got mad wehn they wouldnt make "Smoke two joints" his national song

on the otherhand Ardwenism is still morally corrupt and totally bizarre

[Mint]

Anyone else's country being overrun by streakers?

Streakers swamp all public events in order to bare it all, computer users are buried daily in thousands of unsolicited emails, government spending has hit an all-time low, and citizens must pay to enjoy Tagalong's pristine beaches. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is moderate. Tagalong's national animal is the mole, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the mint.

Wystwynd and its 271 million souls and 600 billion three-toed tallymarks are still boppin'! :D

We've got 8 year olds playing roulette and streakers, our government must be doing something right

[Artha]

World domination will come soon!

Membership in the state-owned Church of Artha is the mandatory and all other faith organisations are banned, pristine wilderness has been trashed in the quest for cheaper oil, funding for education has been redirected into the military, and crooks and people with too many kids are being kicked out of the country.

[Warriorbird]

Consider this an invitation... to my Gangsta Nation...

:snicker: Looks like a fun thing.

[Ilvane]

This is Prestovia right now..

The Democratic States of Prestovia is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 280 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to the Environment, with areas such as Defence and Public Transport receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 56%, and even higher for the wealthy. A nonexistent private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Televangelists flaunt their expensive cars when they attend charity events, the government is making attempts at curtailing the flood of spam emails with little progress, citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, and the government is spending millions on renovating the public transportation system. Crime is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prestovia's national animal is the the cocker spaniel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the presto.

Prestovia is ranked 2nd in the region and 10,568th in the world for Most Income Equality.

It got old fast.

Both my proposals to the UN got pulled by moderators.

If you aren't in the UN, then the game is really not that great. Then, if you are in the UN, you have to deal with horrible game mechanics that don't allow you to create bills that do what you want them to.

Also, you are forced to adopt resolutions that should never, ever pass. You have to do this because some piece of banus grime decided to cut and paste his political "message" to all the delegates. This is known as spamming.

I remember really wanting to be delegate, and then once I was delegate, I thought, "um... this blows??"

Or, as they say in France, "Le suck, no?"

[Snapp]

Why did your proposals get pulled Longshot? I remember seeing the one.. and then checking it again and it was gone? But I don't remember anything bad about it.. especially when you see the ones with all the typos and horrible grammar passing.

[longshot]

I made a comment that the pronounciation of several words were wrong.

Apparently, said spelling was acceptable in countries outside of the US, so I'm assuming a Brit or Aussie mod pulled it.

Living in a foreign country and all, I understand that people should be sensitive to such issues. But, if it was such a concern, the "angry Brits against Americanized spelling" delegation should have campaigned against my bill... not had some bullshit mod pull the thing!

I forgot what the other one was pulled for... but I figured it was better to quit while I was ahead.

[Mint]

a concierge at a posh resort, was often asked about the ski facilities. One day a couple who had just checked in after a long flight came by and asked him where the lift was.

"Go down the hill," he told them, "out the door, past the pool, 200 yards down the block, and you'll see it on your right."

Their tired faces suddenly looked even more exhausted, until the man behind them spoke up. "These folks are from England," he said. "I think they're looking for the elevator."

We have defectors:

3 days ago: The Oppressed Peoples of Teeoncy departed this region for The Stoners Realm
4 days ago: The Free Land of Candarr departed this region for The Stoners Realm

[Betheny]

I'm not g oing to be joining the UN... I'm getting sick of the same issues over and over, myself.

Screw the UN.

[Zeyrin]

Nationstates is getting old. I'm 261 million strong but over the last 3 or 4 days, I've done nothing but the same issues over and over again.

I'm thinking about letting my nation go the way of the do-do myself.

I have no clue, I looked up Stoners Realm though and they have a whole eight countries so I don't think we need to worry too much about a takeover.

whats nation states?

[Galleazzo]

Heh, I just started a nation of whores, so I figure that will be pretty righteous.

[GSLeloo]

After forgetting for so long I finally went and updated my nation.. and this is what I find in our region!

1 day ago: The Holy Empire of Tijaystan ceased to exist.
2 days ago: The Republic of Helioss ceased to exist.

7 days ago: The Grand Duchy of Betch ceased to exist.
13 days ago: The Kingdom of The Edine ceased to exist.
17 days ago: The Grand Duchy of Filosis ceased to exist.
17 days ago: The Republic of Mossten ceased to exist.
19 days ago: The Queendom of CrystalTears arrived from The South Pacific.

[Betheny]

[Galleazzo]

Heh, I got 5 nations now. Got bored with just 1.
