New poll up. Technically any councillor can make one, but I'm usually the only one unhinged enough to make a poll about literally whatever I'm thinking about at the current second.

I'll make a note of when this one runs out and subject you all to whatever's in my head at that point.

Hello Refugia! It's time for a World Assembly discussion post. This one is on Condemn Gholgoth.

snip

Condemn Gholgoth is a proposal to condemn a RP region infamous for its many evil nations, with Automagfreek (the founder) and the Kraven Corporation, a longtime resident, both formerly condemned for RP.

This isn’t your usual condemn. While still split into clauses, it’s not some Horrified Disgusted Verbed resolution. Rather, it reads out like an argument, describing all the villainous nations in the region like a list of grievances, though far more fleshed out. The writing style is great, and the nominee is very deserving, in my opinion.

What are your thoughts?

The style of the condemnation shines through. Its theme was brilliantly conceived and carried out, culminating with the second, concise part, addressed directly to the condemned region, which adds to the dramatic effect. If any Condemnation deserves voting for, This is it.

I work at a bank so I read CD's as certificates of deposit. Lord.

I ocassionally buy certain music albums which happen to be unavailable to me in MP3 format or in my favourite streaming service, so I still buy a CD every once in a blue moon (I don't have any Vinyl Record-player). But I see less and less Music being offered on CD's these days. It is definitely on the decline.

I have a huge collection of Vinyl Records, inherited from my parents. I attempted to find someone to pick them up for free, but then changed my mind. Eventually, my current CD-playing device (a laptop with an Optic drive) will fail, as all hardware eventually does, and my next computer will be unlike to have any such drive. I'll be forced to switch to a Record-playing device then, and am now saving those old records for that day (hoping they are not too dust-filled or scratched).

The forums where always an iffy place for me but now I'm a successful smoothie dealer. I love this

hello everybody i exist here now

Welcome! If you have any questions about the game or our community, feel free to post them here!

ok

Three current or former TEP delegates have voted in the poll, but they have all picked different options. Naturally since Albrook has voted in the landfills options, it has 800 more votes immediately.

I still buy CDs sometimes and have a lot I use, but it's definitely not as popular. I think eventually we're going to hit the same point vinyl did where younger people find them nostalgic and neat, but also more functional than records or tapes.

I still buy some music on CDs, mostly when it's literally impossible to get the music through any other means. I don't think I've bought a game CD in quite a while though... The last might actually be Dark Crusade or one of the times I rebought genefrog, but I think those are digital only now too

i dont have much advice D:

Other than if you generally try to choose things that improve your economy, it'll improve over time even if there's some dips here and there

my sense of morality made me not put children in mines

thats epic!

Yeah, if you tend to go for morals or protecting the ecosystem it will take a bit longer as the game tends to set the ecosystem against the economy a lot, but overall if you stick to the economy (even whilst protecting yoru ecosystem and/or morals) you'll get there eventually - my main nation has a pretty good ecosystem and near 100 economy, so it's possible!

Hi y'all, anyone got scientists in your countries? One of the institutes in Talmon is hiring experts on nuclear subjects in order to deal with the nuclear fallout in Norte.
