Question about Joining UN

My question is, both my husband and I have nations here and we both want to be in the UN but are afraid that one of the ways the game checks to see if one person has multiple nations trying to get into the UN may delete us since we use the same computer. We both have our own email and are going to run our nations as individually. So I guess I was just wondering if both of us are going to be allowed to join or not?

Not. Sorry.

Read Ejected from the UN? (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=274575) Here's why for the Admin's official ruling on shared computers.

so then based on that thread you pointed me to, if I play the game on our PC and my husband uses his laptop then we would both be allowed in?

I'm not a mod, but I THINK that would be okay.

As long as you play on separate computers, and remember not to 'just log on for a sec to post a reply' on the other's computer, you should be fine.

Furystania, you probably didn't get caught because we don't spend a lot of effort trying to find and eject two-nation multis unless they're breaking other rules, like trying to use them to manage an illegal invasion. UN multiing requires moderator intervention - if it was possible to fully automate the system, we wouldn't bother with rules. We'd just let the system prevent it from the start. We probably just never got around to you.

Frisbeeteria, I knew it wasn't automated but my point was that they can just do those simple things to ease their worries etc.

P.S. Why was I censored?

EDIT: Nevermind, I read the message above. I won't post how to avoid it again, but I didn't mean to encourage cheating etc.
