What is the nationdate ?

It's love, too much hating going around already, time for some loving!:fluffle:

In an effort to keep from going broke and needing to take down the game, we've decided to change the game to NationDates. It's the same game that you know and love, except now we're moving into social networking and hoping to help you meet someone that you know and love.

The data that we've collected from your issues and play style place us in a unique position to accurately match you up with a fellow player and not need to worry about political incompatibility. We are working on effective ways to monetize NationDates in the near future.

We hope that you like this new direction.

OOOh ooh! I am hoping YOU will be my NationDate. :)

I've found my Nation Date.

But I already have a boyfriend.

I suppose being gay doesn't come into the equasion?

And Merry April Fools day to you all!

In case anybody can't use basic reasoning skills and figure it out, it's an April Fool's day prank.

Who is your match, Sal? ;)

You break my heart:p

Kudos to the Game Moderation Team for this welcome direction of online gaming. There is now a service where I can find my match, and someone who likes, er --- liked, now that the game has been changed -- NationStates.

Thank you for this welcome addition to my Internet viewing!

:rolleyes: Typical, you girls always go for the man with all the power...

And Merry April Fools day to you all!

Damn, I was hoping I'd get to be the smartass who gets to point it out.... I'm sleeping in past noon today, no pranks for me.

I beg to differ. We used a scientifically valid survey that matched people with the utmost degree of accuracy. Any problems in the matching must have come from the users not answering the questions truthfully.

Lier. :p

Btw, that was a good one lol. :D

Is there any way the survey could be reset so that a user can reanswer the questions -- this time, truthfully?

I'll admit -- I didn't answer them truthfully. I did for the most part, but not entirely.

:p Good original joke, well done.

Ah, thank God. I was getting worried there for a moment.

Oh god! I'm matched with the Macbees!

is there anyway of changing your nation-mate?

Heh. Nice idea for an early month of APRIL, I was truly FOOLed by it.

My match was The Free Land of Tifernus. Time for some diplomatic lurvin' with the velvet smoothness of James Brown, I think.

Somehow, mine was the Umbrella Coporation, the one in Imperial Armies. What twisted minds made the test up? :)

Definitely not whom I would have expected, though we are both in the same region.

Using a very complicated formula, we have determined that your ideal mate is The Sovereign Village of San Adriano

Well, bugger. I'm matched with my own puppet.

I'm condemned to a life of solitude. :p

Best. Thing. Evar.

I completely disagree with this new idea of "NationDate" and I'm shocked to hear the news. We already have plenty of soical networking sites that is crowding the internet and I don't think we need another one. Nationstates is an original and unique rpg game and I wish you could keep it the way it is. I don't need a match; I just want to play the game just as it intended for us in the first place.

Great. I'm the April Fool's victim.

I think most will end up in the same region.

I belive they all end up in the same region.

Though I will say this.. my very first reaction to a very PINK page was:

"WTF Mate?" -(Quoting a flash called End of the World. Watch it, you'll love it. The fact I'm an American makes it even funnier to me because I can imagine that scenario.)

Great. I'm the April Fool's victim.

:p

I don't think so.

Is it a coincidence that this is what google did too?

And this has got me interested, in who my nationdate is, although now that I think about it, I already know....

Better prank than last year.

Is it wrong that I said 1 for the number of people in a democratic relationship? >>

Lol. That was pretty funny. Though I submitted the same survey twice and got two different nations in my region. No matter. Forgotten Theocracy of Abandoned Gods, I'm here for you :fluffle:;)

Took me 5 minutes to figure out that this was a joke.

Meh, I already have a grilfriend...and besides; when I took the survey, my ideal match was myself! :rolleyes:

Ha! I filled it out, and guess what, i was actually (no joke!) matched up with one of MY OWN puppet nations! lmao!

...

I'm condemned to a relationship with myself! nooooooo!!!! :( lol

Great. I'm the April Fool's victim.

:D

Don't ya just lurve April Fools jokes?

Three cheers for the mods - who obviously have waaaaaaaaay too much time on their hands ;)


you might wanna have a look at www.slowcameras.com which was in our national newspapers in the uk :)

And Merry April Fools day to you all!

Beat me to say it!

Using a very complicated formula, we have determined that your ideal mate is The People's Republic of The Syndicate Control

That is a recruiting nation that I founded and rarely use!

:) My ideal match, is myself.

i got myself :(

Same here... oh well there is always mr.Handy :rolleyes:

:eek: 'got the Kingdom od Jamainvilletown. I almost thought this was a late Valentines Day joke.

What should I do to the other stagehands at church this afternoon? We've got setup for tomorrow's service. Gotta have something...

Blah, do you have any idea how much time it's going to take to change NSwiki to NDwiki? All the namespace moves....I shake my seal at you.

Is it possible that the NationDate april fool's joke cause the "0 of 0" disaster?

Nope.
