Confederation of Corrupt Dictators: Ultimate Gameplay Thread

[British Norklon]

It better be a cheese and onion sandwich "shakes fist"

Nah its a Tesco value triple sausage, bacon and egg sandwich.

is it good?

I've had better, but it's alright. Finished it off, with swig from my flask.

[Yokiria]

I feel like this sandwich talk is distracting from the fact that CCD engaged in a 9-month-long cover-up of a plan to doxx a NationStates adminstator.

Still feels weird to type that sentence doesn’t it? And given how much mileage they tried to make out of what happened to Jocospor, (wrongly), I would’ve expected them not to stoop so low. Even my low expectations of CCD were too high apparently.

I mean I'm not going to deny it happened with all the evidence available to the public. But then there's other things on top of that, that people are withholding or don't want to talk about. There are even things I know about, that I'm keeping quiet on. For the sake of friends and leverage.

It just shows that their toxicity goes beyond IC, as everyone had been saying all along.

Say what you will about CCD, but they have the greatest excavation equipment known to man, because every time you think they've hit rock bottom they just keep on digging. They're gonna hit the mantle sooner or later.

Geeze. This isn't even about IC or OOC at this point. This is blatant toxic OOC behaviour on the part of leadership of the CCD. So cut out talk about leverage. This isn't about IC gameplay. If you have relevant information, share it.

And as for friends? The CCD's leadership just said, in this thread, that they don't consider anyone in the region their friend. Which really puts a damper on all of those "the CCD is my family!" sorts of posts. If your "friends" are Joco, Shrew, or someone else in the regional leadership? Well I hate to break it to you, but they're not your friends and never were.
If you have friends elsewhere in the region? I will assume the best about you and assume you and your friends were lied to about the sort of region you were joining. Get out now, to one of the regions set up by ex-CCDers who have left.

That isn't IC gameplay advice, by the way. That's OOC advice. The CCD is a toxic place. Has been since day one, and it's all coming to light now. Get out while you still can, before the people in charge drag you down with them.

[South Reinkalistan]

Not that it'll be particularly surprising, but I wholly support this sentiment.

I'm seriously considering leaving the confederation, but there's a few things I want to do before I come to a decision. My friends already moved out of the confederation bar a few who've decide to stay. But for the sake of the one's who did left, I'll keep the skeletons I've found to myself as insurance. As frankly it's none of your business until it becomes necessary to disclose it.

[Prydania]

We've moved out of the realm of IC gameplay but if you want to keep that up? Sure, go for it. I don't really care. Just know you have no one to blame but yourself if it turns out you were sitting on information you really needed to come forward with sooner.

Jocospor, whether you believe it or not, has done so much to bring everyone in the CCD together.

Because we trust our members more than we trust people who mock and berate us, and think it's more likely that they exploited our stuff than relying on the people we trust and love?

However, I'm not reporting right now. I'm defending my family.

many of the people within the region have helped both me and many others be better people.
For example,I have been able to help and be helped in tough times, and the discord itself is a place where many feel comfortable expressing themselves

And guess what? It was WORTH IT. These people saved my life. Made life something to look forward to every day. And even through this shitstorm, that's still true.

I just wished to throw in my ideas and how we are a family, one that helps each other in the tough times and just treats each other as people asking each other how days went, simple things,but ones that really help people feel connected.

OOC: Sorry but I don't make "friends" with online strangers.

Sometimes life comes at you fast.

"A Revolution is impossible without a revolutionary situation, futhermore, not every revolutionary situation leads to Revolution,"

If reform is denied, not to the people, but your underlings, revolution is inevitable - as your underlings can stir up the people - revolt imminent, and a coup will happen.

tbh if it's an opinion poll, and Joco doesn't want to have to give up power, he shouldn't have to vote yes.
But I'd like to see Russia Major, or someone who actually wants to see the CCD being changed for the better, being given control of it from here.

I laughed so many times reading through this thread. Joco and Shrew seem to think that by saying sowwy in a cringey dispatch, it lets them carry on exactly as they were before. They've tried to change the conversation to so many bizarre things that it's totally memeable now. And saying "we're not going to report fascist groups threatening to dox a moderator bcos that'd be like ratting out a friend to the FBI for making a school shooting joke" is stupid, cos that's admitting to being friends with fascists.
They're also consistently replying to the posts that they can respond to with meaningless drivel, and ignoring posts that feature any criticism that they can't deny.
How on earth do they think anyone's going to take them seriously from now on?

Jocospor’s Viceroy is still, without a doubt, going to control the Confederation.

Fixed the above for you. Even his voting "nay" is either a sign of things to come or an absolute lie, as a founder's will is absolute.

[Castelia]

These people saved my life. Made life something to look forward to every day. And even through this shitstorm, that's still true.

That's quite sweet.

Transnista, a very dear friend of mine, or she was... had a talk with me when everything was revealed, and I am still so very sorry for ousting her and the rest. But like Jocospor, like ShrewLlamaLand, like the Supreme Council, she used me and manipulated me. She shot me while I was down on the ground. After I wanted to make amends. That was ruined with her rash decision go behind my back. I am not saying I didn't deserved it, but only the lowest of the low would go around and seek revenge, only to call it a job.
I can admittedly report that she is working with Jocospor, blindly may I add, for a position that will soon show how corrupt she really is, just as it showed with the nation of Regna Loreau. A nation who held her position above everyone, including the other Supreme Council members.

And this is how you repaid your friends. As someone who suffers from mental illness and have gone through this exact same thing IRL, this is the absolute worst thing I have seen here in my entire time in NS.

Quite frankly, Transnista, you disgust me. Not just as a fellow player, but as a human being. I am quite fortunate never to have trusted you with anything too personal about me, because I am quite sure you would have done this exact same thing to me as well.

Oh yes, you know what really makes sense? The man behind a year long espionage program yelling at me for doing the same thing? I sense jealousy.
