1% is still 100+ players. That's enough to do a raid on a small region.

Raiding requires coordination. Going on a whim here, but something tells me that Drew just ain't that talented.

Drew isn't that talented. It's the raider regions that are. Sure, some may go defending, but I think the raider regions will be pulling in those who stay mostly.

With that said - Drew, if you're reading this, I'm down to teach you how to raid things.

Drew logged in two days ago, but even then it is not at all surprising that he would "abandon the game," as he never really got into the game in the first place.

I've listed The North Pacific already. It's a feeder - the biggest in the world.

I wonder if he would ever do a follow-up considering he gained a little bit of fame here.

You're out of the loop, I see?

A YouTuber with half a million subscribers (Drew Durnil) made a video about NationStates. Naturally, a few hundred, possibly a few thousand fans decided to check out the site for themselves.

Somewhat likely, but I doubt he'd do much other than answer issues and compare NS stats.

If the site is still lagging badly, please make a thread over in the Technical forum. We're not going to shut off new account creation just because we got mentioned somewhere, which would be the only way to 'prevent these people', since the only way to prevent "people from a Youtube video" is to prevent ALL people. (Also, yesterday's lag was less due to the flood itself and more due to a server hamster issue that the flood just happened to exacerbate at the same time.)

Start a GoFundMe for new server hamsters?

Why would we buy new hamsters? Guinea pigs are larger and more powerful. We should just sell the hamsters and replace them.

He didn't break anything. It was likely a coincidence and nothing more. People really need to stop giving him the unwarranted attention he has been receiving. Some guy made a video about making a nation, so a bunch of people thought it would be cool to do that as well. That's the gist of what happened. Nothing more, nothing less.
