Yes, true. Gallia-, Questers and Velkanika are hard choices to pick from.

Everyone else besides that isn't even in the running, besides that or they're stupid.

Such nominations. Much win.
Mokastana: Then Lyras happened.

Allanea: Wanting to avoid fighting Lyras' fuck-huge military is also a reasonable IC consideration

TPF: Who is stupid enough to attack a Lyran convoy?

Sumer: Honestly, I'd rather face Doom's military with Doom having a 3-1 advantage over me, than take a 1-1 fight with a well-supplied Lyran tank unit.

Kinsgard: RL Lyras is like a real life video game character.

Ieperithem: Eighty four. Eighty four percent of their terrifyingly massive GDP goes directly into their military. And they actually know how to manage it. It's safe to say there isn't a single nation that could feasibly stand against them if they wanted it to die.
Yikes. Just... Yikes.

TBH I think that's all the people we need to nominate, we should just go straight to votes.

I say this every time, but we don't really need to nominate someo e twice...

Ugh. This is a hard pick. Questers is awesome, Galla has that kickass not!MBT-70, and Velk has helped me out a considerable amount with the creation of my nations history and is an incredible poster on this thread.

This is my Nomination. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
Nominee: Velkanika
Secularism, restricted immigration policy, against affirmative action, voter ID laws, gun rights, democracy, free-market capitalism, egalitarianism, nationalism, and lastly, Rhodesia > Zimbabwe

Economic Left/Right: 6.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.56

There's not many regulars left to make a nomination, Kyiv and Kat are the main ones.

Although if this thread doesn't get re-opened, Galla has the most noms.

We've got six nominations so far, we've got space for four more. Either way, I don't have the power to make this thread a poll, only the mods and Samoz (as current OP) do.

I have one that will most likely work anyway. I believe it's called incremental modifications using existing technology.

Alright boys and girls, we're done.

No, you may NOT create a new one for a while until we've had a chance to decide on the future of this thread.

First off, sorry for the delay. I wanted to get the input from the Mods who normally keep an eye on things but due to a schedule mismatch, that didn't happen until yesterday.

Me being an idiot and forgetting my computer at school and thus was offline until this morning didn't help either. 俺は阿呆だ m(-_-)m

I'm reopening the thread and will allow it to keep going as usual in terms of OP et al.

That said, one of the reasons I shut this down was in reading the last few pages, I noticed a bit of, shall we say, trash talking, going on. We don't WANT to shut this thread down, but we also want to make it clear that referring to people as 'idiot' or whatnot isn't what we'd like to see either. In terms of a way forward, we have a couple of options, one would be to ask the community to self-police. In other words, we'd like to see more reporting of rule breaking and a general understanding that while you guys can debate military tactics up the ying-yang, please remember that you must attack people's argument and NOT the person behind it. Referring to people as idiots, morons, etc. shouldn't be part of the culture here. The second option would be to allow the thread to go forward, but with a high Modly presence to enforce the above. The third would be to shut this place down.

We're going to try number one in the hopes that we haven't misplaced our faith in the user base.

Thread unlocked.

With all due respect intended in this reply, might I point out this statement may work better addressed to the NSGeneral audience? Surely there are other methods for dealing with the RP community, which in of itself is on a deeper, more complex basis than that of NSGeneral and its, shall we say, "debating methods". If you would like some examples or, perhaps, like me to explain further I will be happy to do so.

Again, no disrespect intended, but I firmly believe your statement is incorrectly addressed to this specific audience.
