WA Nations...

Postby Horizonia » Wed Dec 05, 2012 6:23 pm

**If this isn't the right place to post this, I'm sorry**

I've read the FAQ a few times, especially regarding this- but I apparently only skimmed through the WA Nation section. I understand that having more than one nation in the WA is against the rules (and cheating) and so I haven't done that. However, quite a few friends and I (at school) have shared laptops/iPads to play this game and it didn't occur to me (this was one of my doh-doh moments :palm: ) that sharing computers for a short time would have the game's security register us as multies. I understand that now and that won't happen again- I withdrew my own nation from the WA to counteract the "multies" accusation. That's the problem- is there any way that I can rejoin the WA without registering as a multie again? Or am I doomed to be forever away from international affairs? Thank you, I appreciate any advice/help I receive. :)

As long as you avoid using the same device as your friends, and only maintain a single WA nation, you should be fine.

If your previous WA nation was actually expelled from the WA by the Mods, because they thought that you were multi-ing, then you can still join the WA with a different nation instead.
The Confrederated Clans (and other Confrederated Bodys) of the Free Bears of Bears Armed
(includes The Ursine NorthLands) Demonym = Bear[s]; adjective = ‘Urrsish’.
Population = just under 20 million. Economy = only Thriving. Average Life expectancy = c.60 years. If the nation is classified as 'Anarchy' there still is a [strictly limited] national government... and those aren't "biker gangs", they're traditional cross-Clan 'Warrior Societies', generally respected rather than feared.

I withdrew myself to avoid any trouble. Should it be okay to rejoin now? Thanks

I'm not a mod, but I think if you rejoined and no-one else with a WA nation accessed a computer that you accessed yours WA on (or vice versa) you'd be fine. So basically, don't risk using a shared computer if other people you know have a WA and there is a chance they'd use the same computer.

I am a Mod, and yes. As long as you don't share computers, you should be fine.
