* Seconds ago: The Dominion of Datafeed arrived from The North Pacific.
* Seconds ago: The Dominion of Datafeed updated the World Factbook entry.

Is this because of the name, which is the same as the default XML region name?

If so, are there any other bits of fun that can be had with it?
I s'spect 'at ole Salusa ain't gonna tell me, but other players might have ideas

I can't see what's unusual about this...

I did not update the Factbook or change it after entering that one URL, and yet even before I entered the region, the World Factbook Entry was updated.

*Seconds ago: The Emirate of Beta Testing arrived from Fnord Cabal.
*Seconds ago: The Emirate of Beta Testing updated the World Factbook entry.

This is normal...

It didn't use to happen.

I wonder if it only happens in X regions.

Nope, it's a new change.

Seconds ago: The Emirate of Alpha Testing arrived from The South Pacific.
Seconds ago: The Emirate of Alpha Testing updated the World Factbook entry.

I think that hypothesis is somewhat disproved.

Accept that there's nothing strange about this yet?

Seconds ago: The Empire of Galassia arrived from Lazarus.
Seconds ago: The Empire of Galassia updated the World Factbook entry

It happens in any new region. The updated factbook is before you arrive because when you create the region you choose a name and fill in the factbook then move. Nothing strange here.

It didn't always happen.


* 7 hours ago: The Nomadic Peoples of Floating isle departed this region for The Pacific
* 7 hours ago: The Nomadic Peoples of Floating isle arrived from The Tangent.
* 8 hours ago: The People's Republic of The city of boston arrived from The South Pacific.
* 8 hours ago: The Republic of The happy valley arrived from The Pacific.
* 1 day ago: The Republic of CK 0 arrived from New York.
* 7 days ago: The Quintucket River Valley of Western Massachusetts arrived from High Ground.

And I refounded my home state only a week ago.

Ok, so it's a really new thing that will always happen from this point onward.

I know why (I think), but I can't tell you.

Why not? :?

Or is it that you are not permitted to tell me?

Though I can not fathom why that would be forbidden info.

I'd expect to find it on the News page.

If it's what I'm thinking of, then it's best I not say anything in case it hasn't been completely patched up yet.

Ahh. . .
A way to exploit something being fixed.

Can you tell me in a month or so?

Yes, this is new. This gets added to the log because it was either: accept 1 additional log entry, OR recode a routine just to drop that one line.

Inputs are now more thoroughly validated upon regional creation. Take that as you will.

Ahh.

I can see two ways to interpret that.
