I thought merely being in the region itself was an all-inclusive economic/social/political union.

It is to an extent. With a forum or at least a group we write cohesively together, it will put pen to paper. I consider most of your nations allies. Wouldn't it be nice to know some details? Think of all the RPing we have to do for these tournaments? I think it'd be nice to see a few nations bringing up the Union in RPs and having a real collaborative thing. It could be done now, but I think the group will encourage it. I think the group should be in the standards of Esportiva. It should be laid back, simple to join for people in the region and not too dramatic. I love this region for not being too 'Atlas'.

I won a random boxing tournament for Esportiva, the Ilysea Amphitheater Classic .

Congratulations!

Okay, so I've been here 23 days, and I've read the rules that says you have to be here for 28.

Is it fine if I put in my map claim now and wait for the next map update?

You can feel free to make your claim but no one has gone up to the task. I'd say we re-do a map on the style AO has so that we don't need a whole lot of preparation just to get our map straight.

Somehow I like our map better. Looks more clear and professional.

Clear doesn't equal to practical. I like how our map looks just as much but if the whole problem is people not being able or not willing to update it, then we might as well go with a pretty basic thing.

The current AO cartographer stopped by a while back to state he is extremely busy with his university studies, and we're not a region to just take something away from someone because of RL. We're also a bit less active as of late in terms of players entering the region.

Hey all,

Just dropping a message that I'm going to start winding down on NS from now on. I'm just too busy and can't dedicate the time required/deserved, which is a shame, because I have a lot of things I want to do. I haven't been properly around for the best part of this year anyway, so it won't make that much of a difference. I'll do the Olympics with Wray, try and get to a suitable point in my other puppet's story-arc where I can leave it for a bit - I'll still probably write it because I enjoy it, but most likely won't post it. From then I'll let them die out one by one like those last stars in the morning sky until there's nothing left. I might leave this nation on vacation mode if any regional founder-y stuff needs doing, but I might forget.

I'll definitely be back, that's for sure - perhaps a year, perhaps more, perhaps less, I don't know. But what I can say is that after five years here, you guys are some of the best blokes I've ever had the fortune of encountering. You've made my time here so enlivening and entertaining, I can't thank you enough. This region kicks ass and I hope it continues to do so long into the future.

Go well,

Cy

Shame to see you winding things down as well Cy - sad to see the person who brought me here calling it a day for now!

It doesn't look like something Vangaziland could get involved with. I wanted to. But who would the Vannish be to pick one side over another? Maybe if one side clearly committed atrocities or something. But this seems like people are fighting because of differences. Just not the Vannish way.

It was a good read, an interesting conflict for a factbook. The Vannish Empire is picky where it gets involved. War crimes on both sides would also keep us away... lol However, MOWAG Vangaziland is always open for business. We sell armored vehicles. There's a storefront and a factbook out there.
