This Game saw less regional growth during the 'drewpocalypse' than CCD did. All the condemn would do is look nice on your TG before getting blasted into oblivion by the WA Elite you so desperately need to pin as an enemy.

The region mentioned didn't get enough growth.

XKI has been recruiting relentlessly via manual and stamps since it started on Monday, sorry to burst your bubble :p. Also, the commendation vote ended *before* the population boom. Drew also voted against it in a very public way, so not really that great a thing :p. Stop trying distract from the CCDs inability to win a simple WA election.

Elaborate, please.

As you can see, CCD is just kind of bad at recruitment. CCD actually lost people after the drewpocalypse, despite the UCRs actually trying to grow continuing a positive trend.

The Black Hawks/XKI didn't need to have a Commned/Condemn on the WA floor to pull over 10x the recruits the CCD did on the first day/.

I'll let you draw your own conclusions on what happened the day after.

...and we ran out of stamps like 2000 foundings in, and didn't restart them until 10,000 foundings later/late afternoon of the first surge day! I back-hit the missed foundings, but at a terrible rate, less than 1/3 as effective as normal. We'd be up another ~50 or so at least if I'd had more stamps queued ahead of time/woken up earlier.

I'm aware of this. The "Commend Kuriko" vote definitely helped this recruitment.

The Commendation vote was up when the video was recorded and both your name and XKI were mentioned multiple times. Drew voting against it was the only thing he did right 8)

Distracting from what? You're the only one bringing up the election in this thread, champ.

CCD had no active recruitment until literally a few hours ago, when we sent out our lovely XKI recruitment telegram. I stated this before. Does this explain your trend?

I don't know what part of that is hard to understand.

Failing to promote regional growth would explain a lack of regional growth, yes.

There's no misunderstanding here, the point of that graph was highlighting that This Game had negligible regional growth compared to other UCRs which weren't on the WA floor.

For me it was an "Oh shit, I'm at work but we need stamps *fast*" kinda thing. Also, it's cool to see someone made a graph. Is there a graph of all the big region growths? Karma, Europeia, and the other higher UCRs?

YOU BET THERE IS PAL.
And if you want more regions on that graph, I would happily add them for our esteemed WA SecGen ;)

This thread is amazing, how does the CCD keep their thread so active? Honestly why does NSGP care so much about the CCD? However, I would like to note that I'm surprised that the CCD didn't make a bunch of puppets and claim so called growth. As for commending the CCD, I would not support that, however, a condemnation I would.

With regards to the puppet strategy, it looks like they might've taken your advice. Also, it's something that they've done before, especially to fabricate a sort of regional solidarity in the midst of past crises. As for the thread's activity, NSGP finds the CCD an easy target in constant need of reminding and/or correcting. The CCD finds NSGP to be a collective of fools in constant need of correcting. Thus, the cycle persists.

Also their Delegate thinks it's funny and encourages the CCD to mess with people trying to bring serious grievances to the attention of the community. I know that's not news to most, but still.

Care to tell me the context, because the 5 hours between that message and anything before it on your Discord (and lack of posts on this forum at the time) suggest there is none.
