The three moons

One is uncultured, the other one has a lot of 'un' in it.

The three moons

Herzil who is Wysteria Head of the cross regional games and a very active figure in Wysteria for the past 4 years has Left Wysteria yesterday.

From a conversation with him early today (on facebook) he said he is leaving the game completely and he is going to let his nation die.

Since I, myself had some feelings about leaving & the only reason why I entered the game to begin with and stayed - was Herzil.
And because I'm aware of what was going on in recent months.

I can't see myself representing a region and a founder who acted irresponsibly.

I'm resigned as the Ambassador to 10,000 Islands several minutes ago in a letter on their board.

I'd like to thank Herzil for their work in organizing a number of inter-regional sporting events during their time here.

Had they been more patient they might well have become our next delegate, but it's not a position that is given on demand, nor is full access to the regional powers given on demand.

How's it going, my dudes? I'm your new 10000 islands ambassador. Looking forward to getting to know you guys and this region. I'm pretty new to embassies and stuff so bear with me if I make some rookie mistakes.

Hi Fnarun,

We're just in the process of getting your credentials confirmed by the 10000 Islands customs officials and then we'll give you Modly powers in the Wysterian forum for the 10K Island Embassy section.

In the meanwhile, welcome to Wysteria!

Clear Skies,

WA condemnations sometimes sound like praises to me...

Awesome, thanks.

Oh, also, where in the forum would I post news from XKI and get news from Wysteria?

In this case, yes. Invaders who make a name for themselves as tag raiding would have been mocked in the early years of invading, as those raids were generally only used for training, because it was just attacking tiny, inactive regions where the natives might normally not even notice you invaded them for weeks. Worse, in some cases many of the "natives" in the regions targeted were actually just inactive invader puppets dumped there from the last invasion.

Your vaccinations records finally came through. In future we recommend care when visiting Keyser Soze. :-)

I've updated your penultimate modly powers in the 10000 Islands Embassy sub-forum.

A lot of raiders consider condemnations to be a status symbol. They probably get their friends to write condemnations for them, whether in their own words or dictated by the nation being condemned, and their egos make it hard for them not to sound like they're just worshipping themselves.

I don't mind if they condemn invaders. I just mind when they write up "puff pieces" that vastly overstate the impact they had, which in the case of tag raiding, basically uses tiny, inactive regions as punching bags where the natives might take weeks to notice they were even there. Worse, in some cases the only "natives" might actually be the discarded WA shells of the last invaders to come through, so they're invading a region of their own discarded puppets. Invaders used to make fun of other invaders who crowed about their successes in tag raiding, because they were once only used for training missions, but the bar has really been lowered over the years. It's a bit like some kid claiming to be a Mafia boss after graffiti tagging a few walls.

Finally overtook Wulfhelm in mining!

Monday's eclipse was a lot of fun. I hope a lot of you got a chance to see it.

It was definitely really cool to see. I think the next one is in 7 years or so?

My city is having a good one in 5 years - looking forward to it!

With the Independents Cup just finished, I am wondering if there is any interest here in a regional football tournament? Am more than happy to run it.

Currently in the top 5% for employment and top 10% for secularism. Feeling pretty proud of Lancastion, even though I know plenty of your nations are much better than mine...

Hmmm... Nuke day (2)
They say in the news that if you're not available you can leave a faction and be immune (and return when you're available again)...

Lancastion

We will return after the Nukes.

Sorry, guys. I won't be using this nation for Nuke Day. I'm not good with using two accounts at once, eapecially since it's a weekday so I can't uae my computer and have to go incognito whenever I want to use this alt. :(

Not really the best timing for me, since I'm still not finished work for the day, after having friends just finished staying over for a week and having some others drop by.

I spent a few hours watering all the drought ridden trees and shrubs (there's only been one brief shower all summer long in what's supposed to a rain forest). If those big trees don't get any water their roots will shrink, and they'll fall like dominoes come the first autumn storm.

Do we have a faction?
