Comrade Imkitopia showing, once again, why she's the best damn artist on NationStates


My comrades! I don't have a big, formal, overly gloaty report or such today, but since we've been quiet here in NSGP for a week, I figured I'd give you all a very brief update from your favorite Defender organization.

First - yeah, we're active. Very active, in fact. As is custom, there have been Wardens on the battlefield at every update this past week, spotting, defending, chasing, liberating — in other words, unreasonably high defense activity, as usual. I don't have exact numbers, as our Chamberlain hasn't moved the scrolls from this weekend to our Hall of Records yet, but I can say that the only update without a defense was an update where literally not a single invader was doing something (not even the nooby off-update invader peeps).

Second - we did some more internal stuff to make us be even better than we already are. I'd bore you with the details, but you probably don't care about it, and I'm too lazy to write it up, post it on our forum, zoom out on the page, make a screenshot that's near-impossible to read, and then post that screenshot here.

Third - our Discord is bumpin'. Very bumpin', in fact! Defenders, Raiders, Independents, Francoists, Neutrals, Retirees, and just plain Not-Giving-A-Crap-ers congregate here to have discussions about NationStates, Quidditch, Ponies, heated eggs, music, and the fine art of shitposting. If you're interested, check it out here. We even have Evil Wolf hanging out!

Fourth - KAISERREICH's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Cresenthia, thinks we should be condemned. Do we deserve a condemnation? Or a commendation? Or neither? Or both? We'd love to know what you all think of that over in the Security Council thread.

Fifth - did y'all see this dispatch?

With love,
-- Comrade Roavin

A good defending before an interview keeps the job snatchers away, I always say!

That too, though in fairness, the one updating on his way to a job interview was actually Red Dusk :P

I can certainly trust this rebuttal (even if not on behalf of TGW). After all, it was written by a guy whose sig reads "It's ok! You can trust me!".

Been hyped for this one for aaages now vinny. Love it :p Congrats on your shiny star, and I'll be seeing you out on the tagfields :hug:
1 John 2:1-2 My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father - Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.

Matthew 5:43-44 You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.

Since I cant get the image hosters to make this larger, here is a transcript.

Drake: Tag the SPSF jump point
Drake: Get that TGW flag up

The image in the background is me being a lonely non-exec delegate there.

If you're entering the defender chats... well, be prepared for a loud Tim, a few jokes about me showering during update, and probably at least a half dozen jokes about Roavin sleeping through update.

Except jokes are supposed to be funny. :P

And a loud Tim is not exclusive to just defender chats... sadly... <3 you though Tim.
