Confederation of Corrupt Dictators: Ultimate Gameplay Thread

[Honeydewistania]

I'm assuming the totally not fascist regions of the Iron Confederacy and 101% not fascist Farkasfalka

[The New California Republic]

No. You are clearly unwilling to give an inch on the matter, meaning that you aren't really serious about trying to repair the bad image. Removing region tags alone is a piss-poor means by which to repair it, when you refuse to take an action that actually would make a difference.

Unfortunately, this is just the Republic's opinion.

Hardly. There seems to be a general consensus here:

Removing the fascist tag won't convince NSGP that you aren't fascist but I appreciate the attempt.

I am legitimately unsure what you're trying to achieve. You still have embassies with a shit ton of fascist regions.

We know the issue runs deeper than that, you know the issue runs deeper than that, quit trying to blow smoke up people's asses and accept that your region is a borderline fascistic cesspool and will be until you try to make a genuine effort to change that. Which you haven't, aren't and almost certainly won't. What a joke.

It took time to develop the reputation that you have. It will take time if you want to develop a new one. This is a step in the right direction, but it doesn't erase everyone's memory of everything that came before.

And maybe removing explicit fascists and other crazy alt-righters from the region. Definitely wouldn't satisfy me but it would definitely improve the regions standing, though even then it would probably take way over a year for their reputation to recover. Can see why they almost certainly won't do anything of the sort, their current narrative seems to be floating the boat even if they're a laughing stock.

Also, removing tags is the most worthless gesture ever. There are sooo many things that could have been done to give people the feeling you were trying to get your act together. Removing tags just looks like you want to claim you are changing without changing anything.

Once a fascist, always a fascist, GP wont forget your vile actions so easily

If you really want GP's conflict with your region to be resolved, stop logging in to the founder account and we'll happily take care of the rest once it CTEs

Fun fact: saying you're not a nazi does not magically make you not a nazi, same goes for fascism,ect

Y'all know that one South Park episode where BP "apologizes" for the Gulf Oil Spill? That's basically how I imagine all these apologies on GP when it comes to topics like these. All talk, no walk, and a real fucking apparent lack of any genuine regret or remorse.

Let's not pretend changing regional tags is anything beyond cosmetic.

[West Leas Oros 2]

Why not attempt some actual reform rather than just removing tags? It’ll keep the thugs from breathing down your neck.

[Bowzin]

If you are willing to disassociate with the tags, you should be able to remove fascist embassies...lets see some progress!

[Jocospor]

Many (rather influential) nations have commended us for the actions we've taken, and we are already working more closely with regions that were once strongly opposed to us.

And those regions are?

We'd reveal them to you, but honestly we don't think they deserve similar persecution.

You haven't met them, they go to a different school. In Canada.

Look, many nations are talking about how excellent we are. All the influential nations are saying it. You've got a few nasty people over here saying we're this, we're that, but that's all fake news from the Failing Rejected Times. Look, when the Rejected Times sends out its reporters, they're not sending their best...

Not so, dear sir. You mistakenly assume that everyone shares your views on the Confederation. We have plenty of critics - plenty - but they are the old guard, the same, the ones who always rock up to the party (like yourself - how 'bout dat?!). There are many nations and regions who chose to say nothing publicly and offer their quiet congratulations and, we assure you, they would not take kindly to your disqualifying slight. And for the respect the Confederation has for them, neither shall we reveal there names, because they don't need what we have: you, et al., and your nonconstructive, hateful commentary.

If they're such great friends maybe they'll stand up for you in public.

And Malphe is 'old guard' now? Welcome to the club, here's your complimentary knobbly walking stick and a pair of Mall's dentures.

I'm sure they wouldn't take kindly to it, if they actually existed.

They don't, though, so we'll never know.

[Armaros]

I like this post. "Yes I do have friends! No, you may not know their names. You also may not know how often we talk, if you know them from something or where I know them from! You could be persecuting them!"

I'm glad to be a part of the club, and I'd like to thank Joco for giving me this opportunity. Do we get fancy hats, and a daily CCD flag to burn?

You are the ancient guard.

That moment when you have not been on the site for a year yet but you are considered "The Old Guard"

TIL that Malphe joining the site in 2016 makes someone part of the "old guard". But CCD does have a pretty distorted perspective on time, as shown by the language in one of their self-commend attempts, where they assume that enough time has passed to even have a "history" in the first place:

Noting that the Confederation is a region with a very rich history...

I don't get it. I've been here since 2009, but don't agree with you. Does that mean I don't get old guard membership?

Since my previous main was an Antiquity I guess that makes me a living fossil, skipping right past the "old guard" category.

As Proconsul of The Free Mediterranean States, I congratulate you.

World Factbook Entry
The Free Mediterranean States are a group of former colonized states that want to make the world in our vision.

This region is an independent puppet of Confederation of Corrupt Dictators.

Fucking lol. Getting puppets to shill in a thread.

Such a circlejerk that it would be posted straight up on reddit

Guys, I have made a troubling discovery.

Lets assume that all of CCD are edgy 12-17 US teenagers. They beg their parents for $120 each, which allows them to recruit every single 12-17 year old US resident. That is about 24 million people, more than the population of Ivory Coast and Cameroon. If they had the same average population density of the United States, they'd be bigger than Myanmar. IF we calculate the average US household, lets assume they have access to 10% of it (since they have generous parents to give them TG stamps), they'd have a GDP of over 141 trillion, which is so enourmous that it is almost 2x the rest of the world combined. With such an enormous economy, they'd be a global superpower. Now, they can train 1% of its population, or 2.4 million people, into R/D army they'd be able to tag every region possible, and the combined influence of them cross-endorsing would be so gargantuan in one update they'd be able to generate enough influence to have the entire global influence and have tonnes left over. They'd be able to destroy the Communist Bloc (as every fascist dreams of) in a blink of an eye. Of course, the site could crash from massive traffic, but that is besides the point. As well, the CCD could break the WA and pass Commend the CCD an infinite amount of times as long as the delegate votes for. They could break roleplay by flooding the forums with CCD only material (and they could perform DDoS attacks on non assimilated RPs), they could break stats with an extremely high chance of getting top in stats, especially most WA for Jocopsor and influence, plus the chances for an issue-related stat belonging to a CCD nation is astronomically high. The CCD could break the game, which is why we need to break their spirits.
