Now, I was thinking, since the people on II always get to claim countries on a world map, why shouldn't us generalites be able to do this?

Of course, this map will be different from those on II. Unlike on II, here we will let you do whatever you want with your claims. If you want to claim some land just to be able to brag about how much you have, go ahead.

So yeah, just tell what you want to claim, and I might give it to you.

The map so far (http://img340.imageshack.us/img340/1653/nsgmapjf4.png)

Madagascar sounds nice. :)

I would like a Rhodesia.

Preferably South.

I want Switzerland and Liechtenstein and Vorarlberg and the Bergamo Valley and the north Chablais.

*ponders*

I think this shall be it.

I want Chad.

i will have turkey and cyprus, thank you please. and greece *nod*

Iniika claims the Atacama desert in S. America. ¬¬

I want some Chile, to go with LG's tacos.

*steals tacos*

I want Thailand.

Ladyboys FTW.

Give me the North Pole: I can have a snow base AND keep it out of Putin's greasy hands.

EDIT: Damn, not on your map. If you CAN'T do the North Pole then give me Greenland...And if neither are possible, then just throw me in Siberia.

And if someone wants ALL of Russia, including Siberia, then just throw me in the middle of the Pacific Ocean: My country will be an Ocean Base...like in The Spy Who Loved Me.

...

So to recap.

1st Choice: North Pole
2nd Choice: Greenland
3rd Choice: Siberia
4th Choice: Pacific Ocean Sea Base

I am Greenland, Island, and Newfoundland.

Dododecapod claims Australia.

Iniika claims the Atacama desert in S. America. ¬¬

That's not a country.

Can I have Portugal and Tibet? One for a summer home, the other for a winter home? :D

Brazil would be nice, out of the way yet still the fifth largest country in the world :p

I would like Japan and Taiwan, please. And also Iceland, if at all possible.

Dibs on Iceland, while the rest of you suckers wither and die in the coming oil crisis my geothermal power will serve me well.

:D

How would this handle those NSs that RP as NFT/FT/FFT, where they may not be on the same planet as other NSs.

I claim Canada, Russia, China, Japan, And the UK.

Dibs on Iceland, while the rest of you suckers wither and die in the coming oil crisis my geothermal power will serve me well.

:D

Dude, denied Iceland by a timewarp.

Must be gutting.

hmmm... I could take the USA...

I'll take Antartica.

barring that, I'll take the USA.

I'll share with others.

hmmm... I could take the USA...

I'll take Antartica.

barring that, I'll take the USA.

May I have Pennsylvania and New England?

I am Greenland, Island, and Newfoundland.

allright, but what do you claim?

Ahem *points again to own claims*

Damn you.

Dibs on Iceland, while the rest of you suckers wither and die in the coming oil crisis my geothermal power will serve me well.

:D

Ahem *Points to own claims*

I claim Canada, Russia, China, Japan, And the UK.

Ahem *points again to own claims*

Oh oh! I also claim Norway.

EDIT: and New Zealand and Australia.

Ahem *Points to own claims*

One country only! Don't make me take you to II and pwn you with overly verbose posturing RP garbage!

wait... we can have MORE than one country/continent? then I take Antartica AND the USA.
Sure.

I'll mostly stay in Hawaii. Developing generators that run on the Ocean waves.

Yay!

JuNii has given me PA & New England.

wait... we can have MORE than one country/continent? then I take Antartica AND the USA.
May I have Pennsylvania and New England? Sure.

Edit: I'll take Alaska also.

I claim Mongolia, The Dominican Republic, Haiti, Monaco, Midway, The Aleutian Islands, The Azores, The Philippines, Cuba, Crete, Greece, Jamaica and The Virgin Islands... Hopefully that's enough.

Edit: In place of Japan.. Since it is already taken, Add Sicily, and in place of Cyprus, since it is claimed, Add Corsica.

I'll take Saudi Arabia thanks


*cha-ching*

EDIT: and New Zealand and Australia.

Get your Ruffinous mitts off my Oz!

... methinks we need to limit this to either one or two countries per person.

Edit: Wait... this is Nationstates. let the posters debate and use diplomacy to establish their contested claims. none of this "I called Dibs first!" :p

I'll claim The Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg.

If I can also claim areas of countries, then give me the regions of Bourgogne, Alsace, Lorraine, Nord-Pas de Calais, Picardie, Champagne-Ardenne and Franche-Comté in France. And the states of Lower Saxony, Bremen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland in Germany :D

map updated.

Hmmm... I'm prolly alittle bit nooby for this, but can I have Ireland? Preferably the North as well.

No Tibet for me? :(

Well, in that case, can I add New Zealand? :D

sure. ruffy has too much anyway.

Which countries did I get?

Yay thanks Swil. You can come to my kingdom anytime and eat all the oil you want.

No Tibet for me? :(

Well, in that case, can I add New Zealand? :D

sure. ruffy has too much anyway.

Which countries did I get?

I think you got Tasmania.

That's not a country.

I never claimed it was, but I don't require a country, unlike some people who greedilly seem to require several countries or even entire continents. I only require the desert which is in Chile and which has been claimed already interestingly at the same time as myself.

So either Bann-ed and I can have a knife fight to the death over an entire country which I only wish to have a small, scarcey populated section of, or you can find a more detailed map for us to lay claim to because obviously there aren't enough current countries in the world for all of NSG to plant their flags on.

I claim Mongolia, The Dominican Republic, Haiti, Monaco, Midway, The Aleutian Islands, The Azores, The Philippines, Cuba, Crete, Greece, Jamaica and The Virgin Islands... Hopefully that's enough.

Edit: In place of Japan.. Since it is already taken, Add Sicily, and in place of Cyprus, since it is claimed, Add Corsica.

already has greece. and i was hoping crete would be included in that. and damn you! i was going to snap up mongolia if nobody had claimed it by tomorrow :P

look at the map.

There's lots of blue!

Which countries did I get?

Looks like we're disputed over Japan. I thi9nk we should split it or something.

I would like France, the netherlands, spain, italy, the rest of germany, belgium, denmark and austria please!!:)

Looks like we're disputed over Japan. I thi9nk we should split it or something.

That's what I'm thinking too..

Say, can someone give me the link to the "forum2" url?

Which countries did I get?

look at the map.

Who the fuck got Canada? Oh well, how about a handful of places in the South Pacific there? Lik 5 or 6, I don't care which. I'm gonna be a pirate.

look at the map.

map wrong. I clamed the USA and Antartica. I gave ruffy PA and New England.

So Alaska as well as the USA should be my color. so who claimed the west coast?

I may have missed it, but I don't think anyone's claimed India, Sweden, or Great Britain, so mind if I lay claim to them? It's nice to have some variety. If we're splitting Japan, it might be nice if I could get an island, though I won't push it if that's not possible.

I'm not to good with states, so you have one half of USA, and Ruffy has the other.

Oh, and you never claimed alaska.

I'll have Venezuela.

Iniika notices that it has not been represented. We would like to protest this. If you will not allow us merely the desert, then we will lay claim to the entirety of Chile. We would wish the fact that according to jolt we voiced claim before Bann-ed did be taken into account.

I don't have the link, unfortunately.

Fine. You have bolivia. Happy now?

My choices, from greatest to least preference:
1. Sweden
2. Egypt
3. A part of Russia
4. A part of Antarctica

Won't contest it. I don't mind sharing Antartica.

bah, hawaii.

*ganks vanuatu*

Fine. You have bolivia. Happy now?

Officially, on this map, the Emperor of Iniika (grudgingly) accepts Bolivia, since the official boarders of the desert are in dispute. However, Iniika still unofficially claims the entire desert, despite it's placement within Chile and Peru as well, and will claim as much in all of it's national records. As well, we request that Peru be added to our territories on this map.

Russia, please. Yes, all of it. From the Pacific to the borders of Eastern Europe, from the Arctic to the Black Sea. The lot. All mine. It shall be ruled with an iron fist in a steel glove, which will be a major change from the iron fist in velvet glove tendancy of later feeble governments such as that of Vladimir Putin or Iosef Stalin.

bah, hawaii.

*ganks vanuatu*

Why bother? Vanuatu'll be underwater in a decade.

Changed my mind.

Ecuador, please. Also Spain, if it is still up for grabs. If Spain is called for, then France.

so ...

Ecuador and Spain
or
Ecuador and France

And some of you are just greedy. I have a population of over 6 billion, but I'm not asking for 7 countries .. or even any of the largest. lol

I want Russia, Alaska, Indonesia, Paupa New Guinna, and Alaska.

I'd have claimed Colorado but someone already took it. :headbang:

Why bother? Vanuatu'll be underwater in a decade.

no more than hawaii will. besides, it'd be worth it for the kava anyways.

I want Russia, Alaska, Indonesia, Paupa New Guinna, and Alaska.

I'd have claimed Colorado but someone already took it. :headbang:

... sorry, I'm holding on to Alaska. if you want Colorado, I'll give you that. ;)

Which part(s) of Japan would you prefer?
Hehe, I like the idea of owning the respective stripes of land. No borders? I'll give you cookies and wont be all Palestine about it..
Won't contest it. I don't mind sharing Antartica.
He'll drill for oil!
Thanks.

YO RUFFY. We're Neighbors! :p

Yay!!

*offers lobster*

Current map link is bork'd.

Damn, the map is broken. I hope got some places in the South Pacific.

He'll drill for oil! as long as he does it on HIS HALF!


Yay!!

*offers lobster* oh... Lobster.

*Reciprocates with King Crab and Salmon.*

Eritrea and Ethiopa please.

Hehe, I like the idea of owning the respective stripes of land. No borders? I'll give you cookies and wont be all Palestine about it..


I could do a co-dominion over Japan; however, I would like the Ryukyu (sp?) Islands for myself. Also, http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/699/nsgmapwi8.png is the map

Borneo please

as long as he does it on HIS HALF!
But what if the oilthingy only has a tip on his half, and the majority of oil on your half?!
oh... Lobster.

*Reciprocates with King Crab and Salmon.*
Huzzah!

I declare October 1st as Thanksgiving!

Take it. :)

I want Russia...

:eek: You can't have Russia. I claimed it first. So there. Well, actually, I claimed it after Ruffy, but the map doesn't show Russia as being Ruffy's, so it's MINE, MINE I TELL YOU, GET AWAY YOU HORRID HORRID LITTLE PEASANT! AWAY! GO! Shoo!! :mad:

I can't see the map. The link just brings me to the Imageshack website.
Ideas, suggestions?

Take it. :)

Thanks. :)

Looks like we'll be very close allies.

I can view this map, but not the one in the OP. Oh well, maybe the next time it's updated it will work.

Hey, Ruffy, I'll send you all the pizza imports you like if I could have New York. :)

How did I know you would ask? ;)

Add in bagels and you have a deal.

Hispanic soul food? Hey, I wouldn't mind that.. *wiggles eyebrows*

*offers lobster*

Hey, Ruffy, I'll send you all the pizza imports you like if I could have New York. :)
And if Hispanic soul food's more your thing, I can hook you up with that, too. ;)

Why, that's where diplomacy, negotiation and other nationy type stuff comes in.

if all else fails... SNOWBALL FIGHT!!!

HEY!!!!

Now that I have your attention,I would like to claim France and Spain, if I could. If it is also possible, the rest of Germany. Thanks! I appreciate it! No one responded to my other posts.

Thank you, The Atlantic Emirates :) :rolleyes:

Hey, can I have both koreas and the small part of Russia northeast of china (the Primorsky Krai (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primorsky_Krai) and Khabarovsk Krai (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khabarovsk_Krai))?

I can view this map, but not the one in the OP. Oh well, maybe the next time it's updated it will work.

Ahh I see what you mean now. Yeah, maybe they are working on it atm or something and that's why it isn't coming up.

I have some kind of puke-octarine colour, but I am happy with my ownings.

Anyone want some cheap Chili exported straight from the Chili kapital of the world, Chile itself?

Half-price to those whose main export is tacos.

Can you place TapeWormSandwiches at

1st choice: "East Timor"
2nd choice: "Burma"

Aw blowjobs... all the good stuff is taken. Indochina...or if I can just have Vietnam.

I'll take syria, lebanon, jordan, palestine/israel, and iraq. I settle this bullshit all at once.

Oh and brazil for their women

I call the Isle of Man, San Marino and Monaco.

Ruffy, what will it take for you to let me have New England, the Canadian Maritime provinces, and Greenland? I need lebensraum for 5billion+.

If not, I'll take South Africa, Lesotho, Swaziland, and Namibia.

So either Bann-ed and I can have a knife fight to the death over an entire country which I only wish to have a small, scarcey populated section of, or you can find a more detailed map for us to lay claim to because obviously there aren't enough current countries in the world for all of NSG to plant their flags on.

Oh.. wait, how did I miss this?

You can have the portion of Chile you want, if that isn't possible, you can have free reign to skip through the desert to your(and your people's) heart's content.

I would also like to further my landmass by requesting Norfolk Island, and if that is not possible, New Zealand(if that is not taken already).

Actually, I'll take Gibraltar and Liechtenstein as well.

I wouldn't mind adding Panama to my little collection if no one else has it yet.

I declare myself King of the Toxic Wastes of New Jersey!

i've decided i wish to extend my dominion to the Caspian Sea to include all the states of the Caucasus. so that'll be Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia to me then. Also, Libya. yes, that should do it.

Give me Vatican City folks! I need to talky to God.

hmmm... I could take the USA...

I'll take Antartica.

barring that, I'll take the USA.

I'll share with others.

I would like Oklahoma please.

Ruffy, what will it take for you to let me have New England, the Canadian Maritime provinces, and Greenland? I need lebensraum for 5billion+.

If not, I'll take South Africa, Lesotho, Swaziland, and Namibia.

Haha! No one is getting the rest of my New England!

Tell you what, I'll give you partial ownership of whatever town you live in, and I'll plow the city's roads in winter. What do I request in return? Your first born.

Wow, didn't get all that I wanted, but I was given Newfoundland! I'll take it! I've got alot of prime beach realestate now! I'll make a killing on people going on holidays!

I hereby claim all the land that isn't on the map, in addition to the places I already asked for.

Wow, didn't get all that I wanted, but I was given Newfoundland! I'll take it! I've got alot of prime beach realestate now! I'll make a killing on people going on holidays!

*note to self: never vacation on this madman's turf*

*note to self: never vacation on this madman's turf*

*imagines a Hotel Rwanda-like movie*

Seeing as how the map does not display anyone claiming Alaska yet, I'd like to lay claim to that in addition to my Panama claim. I know there's been fighting over it, but we should sort this out soon.

Along with Ecuador (and possibly Spain or France, if someone didn't call them both first) .. could I possibly get North Carolina... Ruffy? :)

So yeah, just tell what you want to claim, and I might give it to you.


Peninsular India please :)

How did I know you would ask? ;)

Add in bagels and you have a deal.

Hispanic soul food? Hey, I wouldn't mind that.. *wiggles eyebrows*

Deal! :)

*starts frying up tostones*

I claim Italy.

Capisce?

Along with Ecuador (and possibly Spain or France, if someone didn't call them both first) .. could I possibly get North Carolina... Ruffy? :)

I don't own NC. :P

Deal! :)

*starts frying up tostones*

Huzzah!

I don't own NC. :P

Oh .. the map link that comes up now has Junii owning the western US and you the eastern. Did I get my colors mixed up, or was it changed?

http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/699/nsgmapwi8.png

So who has the U.S? They have it all or is it split up? Whoever has NC.. if you could spare it .. I'd take good care of it lol. :p

What are you offering?

IL Ruffino, what would it take for me to get Minnesota?

Oh! My eyes.. I think they're dying..

NC.. hm.. All right.

What are you offering?

Well I haven't actually gotten anything yet. So can't offer another country lol. But! I will probably get Ecuador. I hope to get Spain or France too.. but .. after reading through the thread it looks like both of those might be taken.. I can't really tell cause of time warps.

Ecuador for NC looks like my only option atm.

Could I get the Koreas added to my incredibly small claim?

hmmm... I could take the USA...

I'll take Antartica.

barring that, I'll take the USA.

I'll share with others.

I want Tennessee.

If you say no Ruffy ... I will be forced to storm the Outer Banks (OBX) with my Aviación Naval Ecuatoriana! Leaving only the Light Houses and the Wright Brothers Memorial standing! :p

Antarctica. or else.






if its already been claimed then I don't care a whole lot, but if not: IT IS MINE!!!!11!

Antarctica. or else.

if its already been claimed then I don't care a whole lot, but if not: IT IS MINE!!!!11!

I don't think you exist. Or your claim.

What now punk? :p

A land scramble outside of II? this is madness!

I want New Caladonia. And Sealand.

I want Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona and that tiny strip of land that leads from Arizona to the Gulf of California - just so I can have a port and a little beach front property for the wealthy.

I have some kind of puke-octarine colour, but I am happy with my ownings.

Anyone want some cheap Chili exported straight from the Chili kapital of the world, Chile itself?

Half-price to those whose main export is tacos.

¬¬ I want my desert.

I want Tennessee. ok.

Antarctica. or else.

if its already been claimed then I don't care a whole lot, but if not: IT IS MINE!!!!11! ask New Limacon, I need my half.

I want Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona and that tiny strip of land that leads from Arizona to the Gulf of California - just so I can have a port and a little beach front property for the wealthy. sorry parsing out by states only. Not Colorado, but you can have either Utah, New Mexico or Arizona... any two.

I declare myself King of the Toxic Wastes of New Jersey! ask Ruffy.

I would like Oklahoma please. Sure. (Like I could ever say no to you.)

[QUOTE=JuNii;13099669]

But... but I love Colorado.

Ok. I'll take either Colorado or Utah and Arizona - with that strip going to the Gulf of California. Pretty please?

I claim Turks and Caicos , St Kitss and Nevis, Barbuda , Grand and Little Cayman, Bermuda, Prince Edward Islands Antigua, Barbados and the Faeroes

Haha! No one is getting the rest of my New England!

Not a chance. I'll take the African claim, please.

if I get no answer... then you can have either Colorado and Arizona.

dunno about a strip o land to the GoC, but you can negotiate with someone to build a canal.

A land scramble outside of II? this is madness!

Madness?...

THIS
IS
...you guessed it:)



Anyway, I guess Antarctica is a bit crowded by now, but if there's any place, I'd like some part with penguins or Mountains of Madness (preferably both, not necessarily the coast). Otherwise, I hope I can grab southern parts of Argentina (not that far away, and there should be some penguins, too).

Can I have Barbados please :cool:

Can I have Barbados please :cool:

i think you'll have to beg rhursbourg for that.

I will lay claim to the Bermuda Triangle and any other small islands in the vacinity, for the moment.

Edit: I will also take Easter Island, if its not already taken. Oh, And Romania.

Nobody's claimed Germany or Italy yet? I'll take them then.

Whoa, I got all of my choices. That's nice, I got me an empire.
Just a nitpick, though: my name is New Limacon, with an "n."

map updated.

I totally wanted someone to say that :)

this is a really cool idea though

Nobody's claimed Germany or Italy yet? I'll take them then.

I put out a claim for Italy on page 8, I guess it got missed.

So we can have a virtual knife-fight, or one of us can have the islands and the other have the mainland.

Hi, I don't know how this happened, but I claimed France AND Spain before the person who got them did !! I would also like Algeria, Morrocco, Western Sahara, Tunisia, nigeria,mali, mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, cameroon, togo, ivory coast, liberia, sierra Leone,And guenea sinse no one wants them, AND would it be possible to get italy and the res of germany PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!! THANK YOU!!MUCH!:):):):):)

hey can i get Vatican City if no one else wants it?

map updated.

But I'm not on there with my collection of tax havens.:(

I must ask why.

I also claimed Panama, but that doesn't seem to have been labeled yet. No one seems to have Alaska yet either, but there are people that want it, myself included. I'd also like to add Columbia.

And IL Ruffino, I ask again, what would it take for me to get Minnesota?

Hook me up with Borneo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borneo) if you think I'm important enough to get it. If you think I'm just some crazy lurker, well, give me Svalbard or Singapore.

Can you hook me up with the Canary Islands?

But I'm not on there with my collection of tax havens.:(

I must ask why.

didn't notice. You have them now though, except Liechtenstein, which was already claimed. You get andorra instead.

can i have Iran too? i fancy some ocean access. and Kuwait and Tunisia for the lulz.

Do you want that area?

No, I want what I listed as my second choice. If those countries have been given to someone else, then Argentina, Uruguay, and the Falklands.

EDIT: AND Penobscot county, Maine.

I noticed a tiny white speck in the Western United States, probably near Utah. Can I have that, too?

i think that's a lake... perhaps a salt lake?

Many thanks:)

And wow, I'd forgotten about Andorra. Awesomely, I can now build an evil mountain lair deep in the Pyrenees!

On a QI inspired note, does Berwick-upon-Tweed qualify as a country? If so, its mine.:D

i think that's a lake... perhaps a salt lake?

I like salt. I want that lake!

I want st. mary's county, maryland, usa

I have Alaska. no one touches my polar bears!

Except global warming. Increased by the hotness of my Chilean Chili! Muhahahaaa! *dumps a huge bowl of Chilean Chili onto the polar ice caps*

I also claimed Panama, but that doesn't seem to have been labeled yet. No one seems to have Alaska yet either, but there are people that want it, myself included. I'd also like to add Columbia.

And IL Ruffino, I ask again, what would it take for me to get Minnesota?

FYI, while I am allowing others to claim states in the USA. the ones I will hold on to are Alaska, Hawaii and Nevada.

If you have Alaska, then why isn't it your color on the map? And like I've said, there's an Alaskan dispute because it never got colored and there's been about 3 or 4 people claiming it.

I claimed it first (when I claimed the USA) and it is colored with my color. I have been parceling out parts of the USA for people asking for Alaska. (hey, I'm not THAT greedy.)

This is one of those what the hell moments. I must be looking at an old version then because the one I'm looking at doesn't have that shown. I don't suppose someone could post the link to the most recent map?

sorry, but I offered Colorado to Kyronea...

if I get no answer... then you can have either Colorado and Arizona.

dunno about a strip o land to the GoC, but you can negotiate with someone to build a canal.

Ok. *Walks away whistling, plans canal and canal side luxury hotels with boat lifts.*

Holy shit... why are people so greedy?

We should solve this with a game of Risk to end all games of Risk...

Malaysia for me. I'm not from Malaysia, but my wife is and I love the place. Plus it is geographically relevant to my Name. If I have to choose, The West Malaysian Peninsula over the Eastern Sarawak Malaysia on Borneo.

I want Borneo

Thanks

With a bit of economic liberalisation, abolishment of the Bumiputra doctrine, and weaning of subsidies, we'll have Singapore at the door begging for readmission and be the poster child for moderate islamic prosperity worldwide (Though if we could send the fundies to Sarawak that'd be nice- The trick is to do it consensually, by building the worlds biggest mosque there and calling it asia's holy land. Make up some shit about Mohammed actually visiting Asia, preaching to the chinese, then turning them yellow for not believing. The latter day saints of Allah, or Morhummans).

We're a seafaring people, and like warm climates. I think that Colombia ought to meet our needs. TIA!

Get in line. I claimed that a long time ago along with Panama.

I would like the Islands which are between Canada and the North Pole... :rolleyes:

Another one of these?

maybe it's because you keep shouting.... just saying.

really. I believe the current map is showing it claimed.

Look what I said AFTER that post. I said that I either don't have the link to the current map or my computer won't show the update. You can't just look at one post and expect to know exactly what's going on. In fact, just for you, here's a link to what I CAN see of that area.

See, it looks unclaimed. If ANYONE cares to post a link to the latest map, I would greatly appreciate it because I don't know what's going on on there anymore.

ATTENTION BOLOL!

I hereby request the state of Washington be carved from your western USA hegemony and given over to Intangelon.

And if that request is to brusque, then...



Please? Pretty please? Pretty please with Hershey's Special Dark syrup, reddi-wip, chopped nuts, caramel and a cherry on top?

EDIT: If that bright green isn't Bolol's, and Washington is unclaimed, then I claim it.

okay, something is definately up. I uploaded the map to imageshack, not photobucket. the link is in the OP.

*grabs her flag and sticks it in Morocco*

I can't be bothered to check if someone already claimed it. If they did, can I have my flag back? I need it.

Since no one has laid claim to them yet, I want Kuwait, yemen, oman, Iran, aghanistan and pakistan. :D Or at least the last three

That strip of tiny countries from Cameroon to The Ivory coast please if it's not taken already.

So we're still using the same link? That's what I was afraid of. And I know that the original link is not from photobucket, that's just where I have an account and was able to post the screenshot of what I can see.

And as usual, my post was completely ignored. Thanks a whole hell of a lot, guys. Why, after my first choice was unavailable, was my second choice given to someone else -- AFTER I made my claim? For my third choice, I would like Argentina, Uruguay, and the Falklands.

You know, that "I get ignored around here" thing started as a joke. It wasn't necessary to actually ignore me.

You're right, but I think I figured it out. Check your text color when you post, it could be blending into the background. I can see it, but I'm on a Mac, I'm willing to bet that everyone that can't see it is on a PC running some form of Windows or maybe Linux.

He's getting a bit more than annoyed. And actually, it was your post that helped me figure this out because the quote had his text in the same color as the background, but when I highlighted it, I could see what he wrote.

EDIT: On an unrelated note, the map finally updated. I can see it again.

I have people that do this to me a lot. You may think it's messing, but this kind of thing makes the people on the butt end REALLY mad. I can only see a few reasons for this. One is that you have low self esteem. Two is that you have nothing better to do. Three is that you're just immature.

People rarely ever say this to me. You may think it is being mature, but we are used to doing this kind of stuff on NSG. I can only see a few reasons you would do this. One is that you are annoyed your hypothesis was wrong. Two is that we fooled ya. Three is that you are too mature for the General Forum. :p

2 is bang on and i'll make no claims as to the level of my maturity. but also i'm pretty sure maineiacs knew exactly what was going on being a fairly experienced poster on this forum. if people do this sort of thing to you a lot maybe you ought to ask yourself why. either why you perceive this sort of thing happening to you a lot, or why people actually do this thing to you a lot. maybe you have a victim complex, or maybe your lack of humour and overreaction amuses people so they keep doing it. or maybe both. i'm still amused.

Woo! I'm in the best spot! ^_^

Just that... the correct name is "Tarasovka". Or "Taraskovya".

Not "Taraskova" >.>

How does that make acting immature alright? Perhaps you should examine why you find entertainment in making fun of others.

I see that Borneo is taken. So I'll like to take Sumatra then.

well, Ruffy asked for New England and got Half of the Continental USA. :p

Hmm, could I get the Canadian province of Nunuvek (sp?)? Or if thats too big, the islands off of Alaska and western Canada? (Aluetians, Kodiak, Vancouver island?)

In a way, it's kind of comforting to know that I'm not the only one this happens to.

Ditto. Those coastal countries from Cameroon to Ivory coast plz

i would also please like Morrocco and western Sahara [ the country]PLEASE PLEASE thanks!!

Are Austria and Slovenia still free? If yes, then may I add them to my uber Empire of d00m (hint: it's Switzerland and Vorarlberg and Bergamo on the map)? ^_^

I am Indonesia man! And also that other nation on that island next to it.

Thanks for posting my claim, but I also asked for the Falklands. Could I have them as well?

Bwahah! My Empire has got sea access now :o World, brace yourself for increased cheese and chocolate exports!

Still plenty of land to be claimed!

If no one minds, I'll just annex New Guinea, too. Oh, and those two little islands above Tasmania.

ummmmm pardon may i have ethiopia ? its a poor country in Africa and this shall do :)

Things seem to be slowing down, so is it a crime for me to add Mexico to my widespread list?
