I'd get rid of that empty line between the Box and the first line of text outside of it.
Because sometimes even national leaders just want to hang out

That was because you had each of them on their own line. That takes up 5-6 lines of your available 8.
- Code: Select all
[spoiler=1st spoiler]Content[/spoiler]
[spoiler=2nd spoiler]Content[/spoiler]
You can resolve that by putting both spoilers on the same line. Now you're taking up only 3 lines.
- Code: Select all
[spoiler=1st spoiler]Content[/spoiler][spoiler=2nd spoiler]Content[/spoiler]
You can go one step further by using float tags, to reduce it to 1.5 lines. This is the best way to incorporate multiple spoilers:
- Code: Select all
[floatleft][spoiler=1st spoiler]Content[/spoiler][/floatleft][floatleft][spoiler=2nd spoiler]Content[/spoiler][/floatleft][floatright][spoiler=3rd spoiler]Content[/spoiler][/floatright][floatright][spoiler=4th spoiler]Content[/spoiler][/floatright]
Spoilers should always be the last thing in your sig, as the way spacing works, you almost always get a wasted blank line between the spoiler and the next content. It can't be removed by any method I've discovered.
How do you get a box with a scroll bar at the bottom that moves horizontally? I'm trying to make a news ticker for my sig (in contrast to the oversized box on Union of Sovereign States and Republics) and I can't remember the code for it.

I think the problem is that the align=center terminates right after the table. I believe that if you moved it to be
- Code: Select all
[align=center][table][td][align=center][url=https://www.nationstates.net/nation=shunmyo_kk/detail=factbook/id=1503594]yuki[/url][/align][/td][td][align=center][url=https://www.nationstates.net/nation=shunmyo_kk/detail=factbook/id=1503636]moe[/url][/align][/td][td][align=center][url=https://www.nationstates.net/nation=shunmyo_kk/detail=factbook/id=1503607]takashi[/url][/align][/td][td][align=center][url=https://www.nationstates.net/nation=shunmyo_kk/detail=factbook/id=1503650]yoshio[/url][/align][/td][/table][/align]
Then you would potentially fix the issue.

Looking at it closer the best you could do would be something like this:
e e e e
The table can't have align tags within it like it could gameside, though the table itself can be centered, for some reason. So if you wanted the text to be centered within the table it doesn't seem to be possible. If you're fine with the links not being centered, though, that option could work.
I'd suggest you just do something like this:
Ditching the table should allow you to center the links.
