In the bit in "settings", where you can state the currency and national animal, why not add "capital city". Go on, you know you want to.

Well, look, it has 'national animal' and 'national flag', so why is opting to choose a captial city so different. Why not?

It would mean adding another cosmetic change to the game, and there are only two or three people doing the coding for the whole site. The current project is creating a template to enable the Moderators to approve player-submitted issues, something that was proposed months ago. As you can imagine, with so few staff, the waiting list of improvements is long.

Good idea, I reckon, and it would look far better to have something to go in place of 'our nation's major city' in issues.

Tactical Grace is correct. There are few people with access to the game's working code.

I like to have a Capital too, but it is too much work for the mods, and it adds almost nithing to the gameplay.

You mean it's too much work for the Admins; not even the Game Moderators have access to the NationStates code.

it would be quite nice, but its too small a feature to warrant much effort, you could always design a website

I think it is a good idea, but not a very likely one due to all the reasons stated above.

I like this idea...I think it would be good to see other people's capitals, like what they are called.

COG MADE MOD! :shock: :D
cool!
While a capital city would be cool, it would require [violet] or someone to change coding. This takes time, and it would be way down the priority list.

It is way down the priorities list for me too, I know, and not as simple as it sounds, I am sure, but just a suggestion.

I too would rather have a capital than a national animal. Though, I guess that would cause problems with certain issues, namely "*NationalAnimal* on the diner table"...

I like the national animal bit. Ads far more humor value than a National capital.

My favouritel animal is still the Panzer Division found at the I love hitler nation.
