Hows the book? Hows it related to the game?

Hows the book? Hows it related to the game?

How should I put this... there are a few better examples of literature circulating out there...

That bad eh?



jk

Don't mind Bunny. Forgot to take meds today! ;)

The book is an easy read. I liked it.

I even got Max to sign it when he was in town. ;)

how does it relate to Nationstates though?

It's a great book! I've read it twice! It's ashamed those people that start the "Capitalism is the best!" threads haven't read it.

there is a whole forum dedicated to the book. you should check there.

Checked my meds... ok... it's not a bad book. I still think there are 3 better books out there. :D

pretty good book in my opinion. I read it pretty quickly and easily, so it wasnt a horribly difficult book to get through. However it was well worth it. Max has got some pretty neat and original ideas going on in his head. I give it 2 thumbs up.

Any ideas of what would happen if Max ran for presidency?

I've read it an I'm an anarchocapitalist.

He's Australian, right? He couldn't run for president.

Yep, he certainly is.

The odd thing is, I am too, and i found out about the site, and thru that, the book, on an american friends bboard.

Oh, and good work on the book, Max. Keep em coming.

And the book is related to the game, in the fact that there are nations and regions that are run independently (most of the time).
other than that, theres no similarities(that I can see.)

There was a movie made about the book?????? How good is it?

It hasn't been made yet. We're hoping there will be one before we're dead and gone.

Eh, it's Hollywood. They'd butcher Max's idea and words and Max Jennifer a sexpot slut before they actually made her a strong woman.

You have a terribly cynical view. I happen to think that not everything that Hollywood makes is trash.

I havent read the book yet, I want to, but havent got around to looking for it.
Hollywood does leave a lot of stuff from the books out of the movies, mostly because of budget cuts and filming time, they also have a certain amount of running time for a movie....I mean you dont want to end up having to watch a 10-hour movie based on a whole book, but I wish they would put alot of stuff from the books into the movies.

I've read Nationstates and I found it very dull, I don't think it would make a good movie at all. Max Kinning's "HITMAN" would make a much better film :sniper: .

What's 'Hitman' about?

As to the book 'Jennifer Government', I really liked it. It's a pretty good satire about why multi-national corporations need to be regulated.

Has Max made any new announcements about the book?

Last I heard, it's still being written.
