Ms Reppy, ma'am, I take offence at that remark.

(On a less silly note, NS Sports is a very broad church, so if you want to RP baseball playing Marxist mechanoids...yeah, we're totally cool with that.)

Just from the [Association Football] World Cups, and from memory in a few seconds: a team formed from zombies [gathered in the future] of famous RL footballers; a team formed from porn stars (because IC somebody in their national team's management misunderstood why that cup was labelled 'XXX'); embodied mathematical terms; embodiments of Chemical Elements; a team consisting only of an Egg; a team consisting only of a Pope (with divine assistance); a goalkeeper that was just a [non-sapient, & inanimate] snowman...

I honestly hope that drew actually studies more on Nationstates. A lot of nations here have wonderful and by far in depth worldbuilding and Drew seems to only know about the gameplay aspect of nationstates instead of the worldbuilding aspect, I mean of course this may be due to what his audience wants but hey.

I'm not sure how he'd be able to make it entertaining — a lot of his content seems to be comedic/light-hearted/mildly dark humor, rather than the equivalent of a book review that would probably result from looking at these here forums — but I wouldn't be against him paying attention to the non-gameplay aspects. Just a matter of if he can make it work for his audience.

Drew knows nothing about the gameplay aspect. He understands literally nothing about NationStates.

Drew may eventually get familiar with NationStates … with a bit of encouragement. :roll:

How to get familiar with NationStates:
1. Read the FAQ
2. Participate

This guy seems to be interested in doing neither.

I got into NS through Youtube, but it was another site called cybernations.When I realised that NationStates was much funner than Cybernations I shifted to Nationstates.
