I'm getting increasingly convinced that 266 is a myth, as I've had some version of NationStates in my motto for the last eight months :p

But in reality it's probably just bad RNG with a lot of competing issue possibilities.

You need to put it in your pretitle, not your motto.

Oh we have a new Easter Egg thread!! Not sure how I missed this one when created. Thanks for posting, definitely agree it's time for a new updated topic.

I'm slightly suspicious of Issue 223. I did CTE about 2 years ago...and still haven't gotten this issue. I'm going to put Zombie in pre-title and see if that does anything, although I'm pretty sure I've tried that before too and...nothing. Well, we shall see.

Tssk, tssk, that seems to be correct. Someone tell Drasnia, though.

Well
i can report further results.
after modifying all my puppets with
holy+ color in their pre-title

moo, nationstates, friendship in their motto
and christmas bat as national animal

i can report numberous finding of the easters. namely. colors, issues, nationstates, poney, holy, halloween and party.
although, my youngest nation, who did not had 1 billion, in population yet, never found holy. Hence, I can assume the easter egg triggered by holy has a population requirement.
for exemple, Silver thy Hedgehog, who does not have a population of 1 billion, has found 7 easters eggs, but not the one trigger by holy.

the aliens don't come often, and seem only to come in nations with positive pizza industry, although chese industry does not seem to be factor. And the strengh of the pizza industry can be ignored.

i will continue in my effort to revive the pizza industries of my nation, and see if a nation with a revived pizza industry can receive the aliens. might be hard, as some nation have - 10 for pizza, and in the case of fauzjhia, we have reached -50



this is also the reason wh I try to draft a pizza issue

One of my puppets just got 201, and I feel that one could be changed into an easter egg, given that it already has the custom button text.

Easter eggs are extremely wacky, supernatural, extraterrestrial, or not real issues. 201 is an actual problem, it just has a funny quirk in it as well.

Well since it’s valid for everyone, it wouldn’t be exactly an Easter egg with the mystery and secrecy.

Received 622 with “ghost cow” as my national animal. So I would expect, then, that “wombat” would work.

you don't have negative pizza industry
and I don't see that easter egg in your recent history

I do received it one some nations, moo, in motto was sufficient, but att those nations had a positive pizza industry.

same situation. positive pizza industry
been waiting for that easter egg on my nations but very gew receive it.
its like polygamy, its by far the rarest easter egg, (if we exclude the one about crime, because I'll never qualify for that one.)
all others have been received by my most of my nations, save for that one. although some naitons did not find much, i expect its because of their age.

I believe I got Lucky Charms without “Lucky” - I had Leprechauns in my title. I also had “gold bars” in my currency.

I also got pizza with “ghost cow”

No, nation names are unchangeable, so it would be unfair to require people to remove the Es from their name.

Yes. Say No to E is best to work on separately from other easter eggs.

okay. I'm going to send Lunaria and Green hills to the capitalism side. Hoping this allow me to get more pizza issues, and find the aliens. This will also allow to have universal health care, but that aint important.

and, if it work, then I guess i'll have send precious nations on that path too.
i notice a lot of issues with increase pizza where have capitalist validity.
