When does the UN acceptance e-mail expire?

Pretty simplereally, from the time you are accepted, how long do you have to activate your UN status before the e-mail becomes invalid?

Also, how many times can an individual e-mail be used? ie: If I join today and retire tomorrow, can I re-join using the same e-mail the day after?

Yes I know I could find this out myself, a few days at most would answer the second question, but if someone here knows Id be glad of the information.

Thanks

it definetley does expire. I tried to use a month old one today for one of my puppets.

So somewhere between 5-30 days? Narrowing down a little . . . .

There's no definitive answer, because it's limited by server space, not by time. The last 5,000 issued invitations are valid. This is normally at least a few days, but it varies depending on demand.

Ah, thank you very much for that answer. Makes perfect sense. While we're on the subject, can you tell us if it's considered multi-ing to apply to join the UN before resigning another nation?

No, it is not considered multiing.

Thanks, Salusa. I've been wondering about this for quite some time and I'm happy to have an answer. :)
