Find out starting date of a dead nation?

I'm curious as to when I created the nation FunkyMonkeyLand. However, this nation is now deceased, and I cannot find any posts by it on the forum (If I made any, they must have been too long ago).

Is there any way I can find out the date I created FunkyMonkeyLand?

Don't think so. Well, the mods probably can but I don't think a player can.

Hmmm. I thought the starting date was stored in the forum, but not within the game itself. Meaning: once a nation is dead and the forum account terminated, that information is gone.

But, who knows, perhaps it's stored elsewhere as well. If so, I'd be interested in knowing, as it could be a way for resurrected nations to have their creation-date fully restored.

I have an april nation but I know I've been here longer than that. I'm interested to know how long.

I would saythat it is possible, but every time I make an assumption based on what I've seen and know only it proves wrong, therefore. . .

My answer to this is a tad wishywashy, sorry.

We recently added the ability to record when a nation is founded, but it doesn't exist for any of the older nations. Thus, New FunkyMonkeyLand, I'm sorry, but we really don't have the information. However, any new nations created have this stored.

Is it displayed anywhere? I can't find it on my newest nation (a couple weeks old).

No it isn't. That may change. Our first priority was recording it. We figure that we can decide what to do with it later.

If it could be included in the datafeed, that would be helpful. Wouldn't require changes to the interface, which you've commented involves work, but would be useful for offsite pages, and would also allow people to find their foundation date relatively easily, without hundreds of threads in moderation reading 'Can you tell me when I was founded?'

I'll keep this in mind.

You could find it if you were willing to scroll through the zillions(most of the search/sort functions don't work):

No he's talking about for revived nations.
