BeatKing Region on NationStates

[DudeAsInCool]

Anyone else get to dismissing issues because both options are bullshit?

I do that most of the time

[Excrement_Cranium]

The Rogue Nation of Defecatia is a large, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed population of 20 million enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal morass -- is mainly concerned with Social Welfare, although Education and Defence are secondary priorities. The average income tax rate is 41%, but much higher for the wealthy. A substantial private sector is led by the Cheese Exports industry, followed by Book Publishing and Uranium Mining.

Same-sex marriages are increasingly common, military spending is on the increase, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, and extreme political groups are outlawed. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown. Defecatia's national animal is the sloth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Terd.

Defecatia is ranked 1st in the region and 2,972nd in the world for Most Liberal Nations.

For all my jailing of extreme political groups.... I am still the most liberal nation in the region. WTF.

The rest of ya went w/ dubya, and banned boys kissing, didn't ya?

In CTCistan:

Genetic researchers have been expelled, a dictator has seized power and outlawed elections, all alcohol is banned, and the mob and the police have recently had numerous clashes in the back alleys of CTCistan's cities due to the government's steadfast anti-casino stance. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws.

CTCistan is ranked 5th in the region and 46,114th in the world for Most Compassionate Citizens.

Somehow though, I am more compassionate that The United States of The Divided Warlords, The Dictatorship of Bango-Sheen, and The Oppressed Peoples of Cheapia.

I think I need to legalize cannibalism then kill everyone leftover...

[rainbowdemon]

Cheapia bailed?

[DudeAsInCool]

Cheapia bailed?

he probably forgot to update

[DudeAsInCool]

We have a lot of new countries in the kingdom

The world is changing quickly over at the kingdom of Beat. Nations dropping like flies...new ones joining.

Question.

If you dismiss an issue because you've dealt with it already, does that negate your previous decision?

yes, you can go back and change your decision by doing that

[rainbowdemon]

Not quite what I meant. Let's say you make a decision on an issue. Then a couple of months later, the same issue comes up again. You dismiss it because it's a repeat. Does that change the original decision?

at that point, i think its a cumulative thing - it probably evens you out

When you dismiss an issue it doesn't count at all. To negate your previous decision, you would need to vote differently on it when/if it comes up again. But dismissing an issue is like when a legislature lets a bill die in committee--know one even hears about it and it affects nothing.

For instance, to keep CTCistan a psychotic dictatorship, I cannot condone anything. So I have to dismiss all issues that don't have a "just ban whatever it is" choice (which is usually 3 or 4 out 5), and then they just go away and then I get some new issues.

Takeover strategy

First.

We need to get as many of our nations into the UN as possible. Everyone who wants to start taking shit over, join the UN. If you are new to this, then start a new nation, join our region 0000 BeatKing, and then join the UN.

It takes about a day to get accepted into the UN once you apply.

Second

We need to create scouts. Everyone should create a puppet state, and we should begin scouting around--just move to new regions and see how powerful they are. Or not. We should practice taking over relatively weak regions first.

Third

We could create UN puppets. This is totally against the rules of the game, so be very very careful about this, or you'll get banned.

The way to do this--start a new email address--don't use the one you used to start any of your other countries. Just go onto hotmail or yahoo or whatever free email service you want and create a new email

address.

Once you have done this, log onto NationStates from a different IP address than the one you usually use to play NationStates, and create a new nation. If you only play at home, than log on at work, or at school, or at the library or your next-door neighbors--just DON'T log on from where you normally play, or you will get ejected from the UN and possibly banned from the game. If you have access from several different IP addresses, then theoretically one could create as many different UN puppets.

Once we have "bulked up" with UN member states and done some scouting and found some targets, then we can begin.

I will go into the UN Factbook for our region with the nation I used to found 0000 Beatking and remove the link back to here so locating this information will be more difficult.

cant they match ip addresses to see you have several nations? can they read our conspiratorial notes over beatkingdom--should we have the others come here to discuss? or can we freely announce our intentions on our board over there?

and why do we have two threads on this subject?

[CTC Command]

cant they match ip addresses to see you have several nations?

Thats why you create your UN puppets from some OTHER ip addresses than the one(s) you have used to play the game thus far with your UN member nation, and to use a different email address than you used to create your current nation(s). But it can be done, because I did it this past year with another region I created.

VERY IMPORTANT DON'T log onto the UN puppet unless you are at that other IP address.

Recommendation--use some computer that you are near often but haven't used to play nationstates--school, work, nearby library, next-door neighbor's girlfriend's house, wherever, just not from the IP address you usually play from.

can they read our conspiratorial notes over beatkingdom--should we have the others come here to discuss? or can we freely announce our intentions on our board over there?

I deleted our http:// address from the beatkingdom page at NationStates so that it will be more difficult to read our plans. As far as the non-BK members at 0000 BeatKing, it's not as if they could not have come here at any point in time before I deleted the address yesterday. But we can discuss general invasion plans over there, to a point. I don't think it would be a good idea to post the info on how to set up extra UN puppet states on the boards over there.

Invading other regions though is not illegal, and some regions on NationStates are very good at it. There are other regions that go around trying to protect invaded regions from predation--we may run into some of them in this endeavor.

I would hasten to add that our recruiting efforts in attracting new members will be key in pulling off almost any serious invasion attempt, unless it were an extremely weak region. We need a goodly number of older/longtime members to stay put in 0000 BeatKing to protect ourselves from the very same sort of invasion, and use newly created nations for the invasion force. The game is weighted to favor long-time members when it comes to ejection/banning from a region, which some invaders might try to do to us in retaliation for invading them, if they make allies/are allies with an established invader region.

and why do we have two threads on this subject?

Dude, are you or are you not the king of spam?! I am surprised at you!

Actually, I figured that posting all this on the old thread would not attract the attention of our jaded former members the same way a totally new thread announcing the intent to start a war would.

I think we should give the others a link to this thread in or message board so they can join in the conspiring...

[CTC Command]

So...how's the scouting going guys?

Other than Warflower, no one else has stepped up to the plate. I've been too busy, myself...

[CTC Command]

We could try to attack some place small, some place without a founder present or with a very small (2 person) UN membership.

At the moment, that's about how damn MEGA POWERFUL!!!! we are...

Warflower! log into The Dominion of Warflower or you'll DIE!
