Just because you study ethics and philosophical political theory does not mean you're not an alt. In fact, you could be lying. The only way to solve this is to scan your IP with the others, which would mean a staff member will have to scan them. So stay there in the limbo of nations until I find a moderator willing to scan you of alt-ness.

is it too late to join? if not can i have south Africa- burgandy

is not some thing personal with anyone (and welcome to this epic site)
is just trolls are trolls that's all

Hah! I couldn't agree more with you; it is true that a certain trait of my person does not rectify my uniqueness, so some sort of discussion wouldn't be much of help here (it would rather make me seem like an asshat!). In this case however, an IP scan would indeed resolve that issue. So I'll wait in your limbo, Tsar of Fedoras.

//edit
By the way, sorry already/ in advance if I might come over as posh, but I'm in the middle of my exams, and all this academic English is driving me insane! :/

Nobody will ever get away with cheating. I will find out.

↑ He got this.

This thread = my head EXPLODING

Gonna have to focus really hard to try and understand whats going on, I'm pretty usless at ths politics thing…

…..just like the UK! Wow, I was roleplaying and I didn;t even know it!

I was thinking as I made the above list that Vatican City has a fair amount of cultural pull worldwide, and Singapore has significant economic power in Asia. I actually considered Singapore as my first choice.

In Red Syndicate I trust!

//edit
Can somebody do a scan on me already, I can't believe people don't trust me on the internet!
..oh wait.. But seriously, I'm going to lurk around a bit, and I'll be back in half an hour to see if my non-altness has been established by then.

Am down with this as the simplest solution.

What CjayS said. When these threads get put on the front page, they always get overrun with n00bs. Remember my meme JEOPARDY! thread? (Who here was able to follow the six or seven identity changes I've gone through since being "Alex Trebek"?) When that hit the front page, the thread went nuts with new players, much more than this one just did, and there was no reason to have multiple accounts for anyone in that thread but me, and I was open about my alt account. I think Red Syndicate's rule about a player needing to stay active to remain in the game is a good one, and so I'm off to send in some marching orders for my troops.

Oh, and to reiterate what I said earlier in the thread, although I'm almost sort of playing India by proxy, I don't mind if someone takes it on so long as they are a serious player.

I picked from a list that I didn't make. I have no interest in screwing this game up; I'm just a long time kym lurked who signed up an account precisely to play this game. If I need to repick to assuage fears that I'm secretly an alt trying to trollolol the game, I'll do so. I just want to play.

I am afraid the recent international events force Hungary to intervene (if it's still possible).
Hit me with a colour and I shall conquer Earth itself.

I just sent a message to Red Syndicate saying, "We will be willing to broker a peace with China if they are willing to cede Xizang province, and will contact them regarding such a possible truce."

Nepal has no desire to carry on this fighting indefinitely, but will do so if necessary. In the interest of peace, we ask for a compromise. Our original intention was to push through until we liberated the orange area on the map below. If you cede Xizang province willingly, remove all Chinese military, and allow Tibetans to travel freely to this region from China, we will gladly cease hostilities in this region.

It should be noted that we cannot speak concerning the situation in Xinjiang, nor regarding what possible repercussions China may suffer resulting from their unprovoked attack on Nippon-koku.

Ok so we don't have to be city states anymore..? Then I shall be Venezuela, neon orange!

@ नेपाल Leader of Nepal, please do tell us of Norway if you uncover any items pertaining to the Chinese directed laser project…we'd be willing to trade for any plans or schematics your country retreives.

If it's not too late to join, I would like to be Israel, color white.

i will be pacistan and i want to be teal

@नेपाल

The people of Germany have decided to aid the SAC in their struggle against China. We've sent a Fighter Squadron to intercept any Chinese bombers coming into Nepal and a Paratrooper Battalion has been sent to back up your defensive lines. Be advised that both these units are still under German control, but we support your cause. Also, we'd be interested in any information you find about the Chinese directed laser project.

Oh, and I need permission from the SAC to allow my Fighters and Troops to use your bases for resupply.

If it's not far too late, I would like to play as Iceland, maybe in a dark orange color?

I hope you mean Pakistan…

Egypt is looking to do trade with pro-democracy nations to counteract the effects of the embargo against it.

Argentina we would like to establish trade agreements with Egypt.

Constructing today's turn now. Any PMs to me now are final, and any aditions, alterations, or new PMs after this post will be ignored until the next turn.

how can i be allied with other country?

The State of Israel would prefer to begin with a Small Professional Military, larger than minuscule because military service is mandatory for all able-bodied citizens at the age of 18. We have the 34th largest military in the world, we are not minuscule.

The State of Israel would be glad to accept the Egyptian trade offer, and applaud their moves toward democracy.
Research Goals: We would like to build a permanent base on the Moon no later than 2030. To do so, we would like to enlist the American space transport company SpaceX, in partnership with the Israeli Space Agency. We would also like to research Fusion Power.

Singapore will agree and proposes an Egypt-Singapore-Argentina free trade agreement.

I call antartica, and my color is Trollface White.

i'm proposing Isreal an alliance and trading food for technology
do we have an agreement

I'll do trade with you as well.

I am proposing U.S.A an alliance.

Do we have any agreements?

I am proposing U.S.A an alliance.

hey trollface , no one can have antarctica

Sorry bro, I already claimed the Land of Ice :/

Very well, the State of Israel is glad to accept this offer, so long as you use our technologies for peaceful purposes. We would prefer if you would stay out of any conflicts, we're not arms dealers.

By the way Isreal , choose another color , white is for npc and neutral country

What country are you?

Fine, I'd like Tardis Blue. It looks like this:

Oh shit!!! Sorry man! I said Finland but then I read that long post listing all those countries and I didn't see Finland on the list, so I PM'ed you Iceland since that was my second choice and it was on the list.

Terribly sorry. My fault. It won't happen again.

New rules n' stuff

No more players may join, as it's becoming rediculous to try and manage this thing. Usually I get five to ten players max. This has what, thirty? I'm going to request that it be removed from the front page.

From this moment forward, if you don't send in a turn via PM, your nation is forfeit and collapses; you are booted from the game. No exceptions, and you cannot rejoin the game. Period.

If I got your colour wrong, sorry, but I was only reading PMs and didn't bother hunting through the thread for where you claimed your nation and colour. Just tell me via your next PM what new colour you want instead.

edit: also, Brandon Perez is playing Argentina, but I forgot to add his nation. Will do next turn, just act like he is already playing.

Just to clarify, I am in fact FINLAND from now on…got it.

I am proposing U.S.A an alliance and trading food for tech & weapon
Do we have any agreements?

Send him a PM it's a waste to put it here.

Requesting an alliance with Norway and urge Sweden to do join as well to decrease further hostilities in our region, I'll cut you both in on the profits and benefits from my eventual Underwater Research and Mining Facilities.

The rest of Europe is quickly spiraling into chaos, we must stand together.
