Sorry, but I CAN make you Governor of that little insignificant piece of land!

You see, when I claimed Earth, I claimed ALL of Earth!

See sig for details. Restrictions do not apply to Colodia.


And we really should all email the UN all at once with our declarations for the same exact bit of land. :D

That, sonny, would be a block of ice. Ice that will disappear by the time the UN recognizes your claim thanks to global warming. :D

If you get an island, you better invite me.

Get a script to keep sending the same e-mail every 10 seconds or something. Then they're bound to respond just to shut you up.

What kind of test? Hmmmmm?

Plus, I'm thinking the island is going to be something like this (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v258/Aerou/Other/outpost.jpg). I dunno how much time I'd be wanting to spend there......

Even though penguins are really cute, its a toss up. Man eating monster vs penguins. How scary is this monster anyway?

Actually setting up you own country is kind of possible, but it seems like a shit load of work.

No man eating trolls on my island, please.You mean you want to ban yourself from your own island? :eek:

:p

And besides that, I'm thinking of something more along the lines of a swamp creature related to the squid, with tentacles that can grab people from 2 miles outside the water. :rolleyes:

So, I was speaking with my extended family, who come from eastern Germany, before the post-war partition. It seems that our family, the Klewenos, were ejected from their castle in Mecklenburg, in Pomerania. If I were to go to Germany, and live there permanently, the German government would, upon proof of descent, and proof of residency, would give over the property to me. Of course, property tax in Germany might be pretty high... but anyways. Does anyone know the tax rates for Germany?

At least I know it's *mine*. I was in contact with the German ambassador with information and whatnot, he sent me letters from the person who is considered the "guardian" of the castle grounds, it's being currently used as a nursing home.

To hell with the old people.

But really, I'd have to move to Germany permanently, and be able to afford the taxes there. Which are extremely high in Germany. I'm so sad :(

I'm not sure, but I thought that the laws for exploration and claiming land was that you had to go to it, plant your flag on it, and get permision from the Pope. Maybe you should email the Vatican instead of the UN?
