A decade.

I am an Icelandic Jew, born in Be'ersheba, Yishrael. I am just a bit younger than Yishrael itself.

Here is where I stand on Palestine.

Thanks to StumbleUpon I stumbled upon this game a Saturday evening 5 years ago. Things has not been the same since. Thanks to Max for creating this wonderful game, the Mods and Admins for maintaining it, and to my fellow NSers for providing such good entertainment. :clap: :clap: :clap:
"Send forth all legions! Do not stop the attack until the city is taken! Slay them all!"
>Can I invade other people's regions?

Yes. The practice of "region crashing," where a group of nations all move to a region with the aim of seizing the WA Delegate position, is part of the game. Certain groups within NationStates are particularly adroit at this, and can attack very quickly.
>Once I've taken over a region, can I eject everyone else?

You can try. Invader Delegates tend to have very little Regional Influence, which makes ejecting long-time residents difficult. But Delegates can be as kind, generous, evil, or despotic as they wish. It's up to regional residents to elect good Delegates.

No really, it's not. Specially by how you're writing it. I apologize if I sound somewhat rude, but I don't really think the idea is welcome, and even if it was, it'd never be applied regardless.

10th IPO

Postby Attlantes » Sun Nov 18, 2012 2:04 pm

Has it really been 10 years, or is this another IPO prank? Can't blame a guy for being cautious. If anyone ever has anything to do with the stock market, no one will believe it. Cheers to Max Barry! Love the books!

I shall see you all again for the twelfth anniversary because I expect to have left the forum by then. That is if I am no longer addicted to NS.
