So...let's talk about puppets...

I'm bringing this up because today my smallest puppet has passed another billion milestone and is now 3-billion strong. It is also my smallest nation. The Marijuacracy of Farflorin is my youngest puppet. My main nation of The Republic of Kryozerkia and its cousin nation of The Eastern Kingdom of Kutou-koku are both over 3.5 billion...

Farflorin used to be a Kryozerkian province and Kutou-koku is now an annexed territory after the First Regional War (for ALSN).

Who else has large puppets because they lost interest in making more than one or two? What purpose do your puppets serve?

I thought you weren't allowed to have more than one nation?

Huh. :confused:

In over 2 years I have never had a puppet nation.

You're only allowed one in the UN. You can have as many nations as you like.

I recently created my first puppet, to stay in my old region while I went off to form a new region. Now it appears to be random which nation my browser (firefox) logs into. How do I control this?

The Imperial Military is barely younger than Colodia.

I've never had a puppet, and it's doubtful I ever will. I used to read the RPs, but lost interest, and became a General Addict.

I had three puppets all created a week after my main nation-Eternia Reborn on the principal that Skeletor wasn't evil, but in fact had a better plan for Eternia, The Island of Monsters, and island ruled by Godzilla-style monsters (and the excuse I used when RPers would TG me with "WAR!"-sorry man, ya gotta go through the monsters...that is if I didn't just respond with "What is it good for? Absolutely nothin', say it again!") and a nation that I created to be a dick on the forums (Beeing) but then decided that I didn't want to do that (even with anonymity I just don't have it in me.) so I never used it. It died first, then the other two after they hit 500 and I could change their titles. I thought about trying to get them resurected, but decided it wasn't worth bothering...

The NS game and RPing isn't worth it anymore.

I currently have one puppet, Joey Lawrence. I've had probably close to 75 puppets in all my time here.

I was kind of hoping this thread would be about sock puppets or something.

It's ony illegal to have more than one nation in the UN. You can have as many puppets outside of the UN as you ike.

I have only two puppets; One is a 2.5 billion nation and the other just recently passed the half billion mark.

1 "retired" nation that should be hitting 4 billion in about a week
1 puppet that is just under 1 month away from 3 billion

I have 8 nations.

The Armed Confederate Republic of Dark Kanatia is my main nation and follows my ideals.

The Democratic Bureaucracy of White Kanatia is a nation based on compromise and what's popular.

The Enviromental Communism of Green Kanatia is based on extreme left wing ideals as advocated by enviromentalists, PETA, communists, and the like.

The Confederated Corporations of Black Kanatia is based on whatever helps the economy best.

The Jingoist Orwellian Fascism of Evil Kanatia is based on a militaristic tyranny.

All the above have just above 4 billion population.

The Enlightened Despotism of Telelei is based on what I would do if I was a dictator. It has a population of about 2.6 billion.

The Holy Republic of Holy Kanatia is based on religious extremists in a democratic setting.

The People's Republic of Athiestic Kanatia is based on athiestic extremists in a democratic setting.

Both those have about 250 million.

I still go on all on a daily basis.

My "puppet" is my original nation... from back at the start of NS (there is no data in the XML saying when I created it, it was just WAAAY back at the start (original issue set) and I wasn't Foruming. :eek:

I'm mostly using my puppet(s) to try to create and maintain a Libertarian Police State, which, for some reason, is harder than you would think. IMO the "benevolent dictatorship" and LPS are inverted as to their socio-economic requirements...
