I have an idea. We use our switchers to "raid' the economic system by putting someone to the top.

Another 16 regions fall as The Black Riders hit NationStates once again. Defenders cowered in their burrows. Furthermore, the last updating region, Radioactive Desert, saw itself refounded by The Black Riders.

The 16 victims:

1. Totalitaria
2. Hakugyokuro
3. Mt Olympus
4. The Quiver
5. Insignia Incorporated
6. Olympus Mons
7. The German Army
8. The Feline Confederation
9. Riftwood
10. Hersheyhighia
11. The Coalition of Mordan
12. The Old World
13. Militaria
14. Greygorg
15. The Light Side of the Moon

I don't think us defenders cowered in our burrows, I think it's because they're tiny regions that we can't keep track of and/or are too little for a UDL operation.

No, I think it's because defenders are weak and poorly organized. Good guess, though.

No, it's because they're tiny regions that usually don't have a good community established at that time. If they did, then you were kicked out of there.

That is actually very hard understand why. There are around 17000 regions currently. Only about 1600 of them are possible Targets for Raiders. The Black Riders more or less continuously control about half of these possible targets.

Fenda Side of R/D game effectively let Raider Side Control about 10% of all Regions Existing. There are very big difference between Volumes of their Forum appearances and In-game Presence. Effectually They are already lost the War on Vast part of NationStates.

Graffiti is controlling now? I'm not trying to cause offence, I just prefer the pre-tagging era raids. Like Hogwarts. :)

If it only has like 1 nation in it, that logs in every couple days, I doubt anyone actually cares about it.

So yeah, I very much doubt defenders are going to care about regions with one or two inactive nations in them. In fact, very few people in general do.

Why? If there's no community or natives to speak of, or at the very least the natives don't care about the region, why bother?
