We get to watch Mitch McConnel ensure that there will be no administration if Biden wins... he will refuse to confirm nearly any position and make sure nothing happens for at least two years. Scorch earth against one’s own country in peacetime. Wow. (This will get deleted if the incumbent wins).
Remember remember the 5th of November... 2013, when this fine nation was founded.
Bauscland turns 7 this day!

A German satirical news website claims that Trump has won the election by inventing the state New Michivada, all of whose 51 electoral votes go to him.
Our hobby must never be discovered by that man :o
Domanania, The federal united republic, and Almorea
I drove past my old high school (and town polling place) on Election Night and saw a large crowd of people waving Trump flags into the right lane of the road, even though it was cold and pretty dark outside. I live in MA, Trump still got like 45% of the vote in my town and he won some towns around me by 50% or more. He ended up being more popular than I thought.
Segentova, The federal united republic, and The woldlands
He’s popular because he’s controversial, people like that he talks smack he seems like a tough leader, but if we want a tough leader there are tougher leaders then Trump.
I mean I’m a pretty right leaning moderate and I don’t like trump but I understand why some might.
Or, as is the case of my equally literate brother, they got suckered into the brainwashing of Fox and can't break off.
/pol/ is great rn
I'm not saying all Trump supporters are, just that like attracts like and that's a significant portion of his base.
The dumb follow him because they don't know better than anyone else, the smart follow him because they think they know better than everyone else
Anyone up for some ps4 games, tg me or hmu on discord, I be a lonely boy

~Serbianistan, Zaberaz hapang, and Sulenia were all hired as Welcome Buddies by Minister of Education Grea Kriopia to help guide and support new Islanders.
Islanders dressed up in their fanciest suits and ritziest ball gowns to rub shoulders and drink champagne with their fellow defenders at the first ever Liberty Gala. Players from all over NS joined in for the revelry and got to know one another through games of Among Us, impromptu VC parties, and a congo line to other regions' Discord servers. Besides making new friends, players paid respects to old ones, through panels and essays from experienced defenders, as well as an extensive family tree that traced mentor-trainee relationships through several generations.
But it wasn't all fun and games at the Gala, as players were also split into teams to compete in Defender Telephone, Trivia Relay, and a Detag/Chase competition. Players also had a chance to show off their individual skills in trigger jumping and chasing competitions, with results determined by a nail-biting few milliseconds! Despite the competitive nature of these events, players were quick to praise one another and keep their spirits high. In the end Team Obama proved themselves to be the best defenders (or perhaps just the most enthusiastic), and were awarded 1st place in the Defender Games. Though the end of the Gala is bittersweet, everyone returned home with new friends and plenty of fun memories!
XKI went all in to celebrate Halloween this year, with plenty of events to get everyone is a spooky spirit!
~The Cultural Office hosted a Regional Pumpkin Event, in which Islanders could submit different designs for an XKI jack-o'-lantern. The simultaneously beachy and spooky palm tree design, suggested by THX1138 proved to be the region's favorite. Grea Kriopia, in a live pumpkin-carving session, expertly created this Halloween's fantastic Regional Pumpkin
~Chief Executive Markanite called upon Islanders to collect candy in a Trick-or-Treating themed Scavenger Hunt that had everyone scouring the forums for candy. Margaux proved themselves to be the most adept candy-hunter, finding an amazing 928 sweets, and winning 50,000 tacos as a prize! Wischland and Free Las Pinas also showed their candy finding skills, coming in second and third place respectively.
~The region didn't let the fun stop during Z-Day's zombie incursions. Islanders worked together to cure the zombie plague and save one another's nations, coordinating in Discord and the regional RMB. Player's cure spamming saved trillions of lives, and placed XKI on the Z-Day rankings at #13 for most survivors, and #5 for Most Survivors + No Quarantine. Meanwhile Louisistan led zombie-loving nation to spread the undead scourge from 10000 Zombies to the rest of the world. Whatever side Islanders took, they had a blast working with another to deal with the zombie threat.
~Margaux was named Rookie of the Quarter. Besides his service as Secretary of state, Deputy Senator for Himes West, in TITO, and as a recruiter, Margaux has been a fixture on the forum and Discord, bringing joy to all with his formality and respectful discourse. Congratulations Margaux on the well-deserved award!
~Islanders sallied over the The Union of Democratic States to spend the weekend socializing with friends there. Members of XKI and UDS got together to play a variety of games and roleplay together in a mutual story-building event. Laughter and camaraderie abounded, and Islanders returned home with lots of new friends.
~Senator for Lyonnesse East Thedairos held the House Shield and Cup Competition, in which recruiters from XKI's different houses competed to contact and recruit as many new nations as possible. Led by the recruiting machine also known as United Counties of Escanaba, the House of Improving Wordiness took both the House Cup and House Shield. The House Sceptre went to the House of Aersoldorf thanks to Free Las Pinas's high recruiting success rate. Congratulations to the winning Houses and thank you to all recruiters!
~October's Featured Nation was Zaberaz hapang whose excellent work as a Welcome Buddy and recruiter shows their diligence and commitment to making XKI an even better region. Keep up the good work ZH, we can't wait to see what you'll do next!
~Following HumanSanity's assumption of the Delegacy, October saw an Endorsement Drive to get HS's endo count up to an ambitious 500 endorsements. Although HS's endo count was still a bit short by the end of the month, the hard work of TIBOE prompted over 30 nations to give HS their endorsement, with more sure to come soon.
~The A Taco Archipelago International Convention concluded after a month of excellent roleplaying and nation-development, all hosted by Wille-Harlia and Thedairos. Islanders were asked to create factbooks on their nation's military, design a map for their nation, and even write a battle speech! The convention ended with a bevy of awards and congratulations for each event winner.
A poll by Jabberwocky asked Islanders to pick which dinosaur they would save from extinction. Following lots of dino-based discussion in the RMB the Brontosaur and Raptors both proved popular.
There were lots of good vibes in the RMB this month:
~A Cheerful Hello
~Corruption? Who's She?
~Blessed by the Easter Bunny
~Prepare for the Elephant Rebellion
~We all know where Mozambique is
~THX is hip and with it
~NS Deep Fake
~"Good" is subjective
~The wonders of nature
Aspiring poets of the region once again competed in October's Poet Laureate Contest, with poems centered on the theme of regret. After two tied votes, Margaux was declared winner of the competition with their poem "The Quiet Throne".
and you have given everything to get there.
You sit on this lonely throne,
and you wonder, was it all fair.
How many dreams did you crush?
Who was hurt during your rise?
Because it was all a rush,
or was it all a bunch of lies.
They told you to be the best,
But did they tell you about the pain?
The endless time put into the contest,
through the snow, mud, and rain.
You pushed your friends and family away,
and only walked a lone path.
You hold the darkness at bay,
ever feeling life's wrath.
The aches and pain of it all,
never seem to disappear.
There is no one for you too call,
as you sit here in fear.
You look back and wonder,
what was it all for?
And as you hear the thunder,
what if you chose a different door?
Guess who is coming back...

A new addition to the collection of maps, freshened up the map of D&S in 1961, at the outbreak of the generation-defining Dormill-Stiura War.

Also a new addition to my map collection, now with more proper French-like Departments on the French half of the nation, while cleaning up some of the Provinces on the Dutch half. Also worked on the overall linework to make the borders (but not necessarily rivers) look much cleaner. The largest shift in the borders between the Republics that's a result of this is pushing the Annecy-Ardeda border back to the twin rivers from where they were in the last version.

To all my Liberal Friends on here, we Conservatives aren’t use to rioting, last time conservatives rioted because of a presidential election was 160 years ago and a million+ died. I’m hoping it’s not like that now. Do you wear any kind of special clothes or just come as you are? Is there a set system of which stores to loot first, want my indignation to at least net a 75” TV. Is there any kind of timeline when you go from looting to burning? Do you bring snacks or drinks? I’m not up on this, last marches I remember were mostly peaceful. So any help would be greatly appreciated.
It was just meant to be a joke, sorry it wasn’t taken that way
