No - not Wolfish - Brass Rails.

I've tried to give it up before - but no one has given me a good enough reason.

NO OFFERING MONEY. Just your best reason why you should have it.

Cheers,

Depending on what it is like, i could probally make a few good rp's with it, lol.
17-10-2003, 03:03
I think i deserve it more because i have more experience and would use it wisely

I'll watch over it.

In my time on NS, I've owned the following nations (were given to me):

Sniper Country, Neo-Wu, Mallberta, Manticore Corporation, and Danya.

I still own Manti and Danya.

As you see, I've got alot of "nation sitting" experience! :wink:

I think I deserve it because I have a great many RP's planned that all sank before they started, merely because the particicpants, or outside commentaters, felt that I had neither the population nor resources to do the RP. Much fun that I, and others, could have had was not had because of my small nation.

AMF - lol. You forget I don't like you. We fought once when I was in the RGGA. It didn't end well. But good try.


Here are some stats on the nation:

Civil Rights: Good Economy: All-Consuming Political Freedoms: Rare

Location: Role Play University
The Republic of Brass Rails is a huge, economically powerful nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 936 million are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

There is no government in the normal sense the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Commerce. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Gambling industry, followed by Information Technology and Arms Manufacturing.

Anti-government web sites are springing up, same-sex marriages are increasingly common, scientists recently cloned the long-extinct feather-bellied Monkey, and organ donation is compulsory. Crime is crippling. Brass Rails's national animal is the Monkey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Smatter.

Brass Rails is ranked 1st in the region and 481st in the world for Largest Soda Pop Sector.

I'll take it, I've been entrusted with several other large nations. I won't use it as a puppet, but as a separate and independent nation.

Yeah. I got the last one by posting nonsense. I'm going for a different approach.

Can I have it? I'm a pretty weak nation. And I'll try to not let it destroyed. Instead, I'll use my puppet nations. Or somehow, a very nice ally...

War with who? AMF, we cant go to war with each or contact anymore. So would you goto war with me? You seem to hate me alot like AMF. Are you the one who requested many powerful nations to destroy me?

Give me some answers. And this time, I'm serious.

Doesn't have to be AMF. Theres like 69,999 other nations to go to war with. You'll probally use the population and economy to godmod and then get into flaming ect and stuff then deleted, lol..

If I took care of it, beware of a pro-Defence policy within your nation when you get it back.

I've been watching your other thread. I'm not convinced you don't deserve to be bullied - lots of flaming going on.
17-10-2003, 03:20
I am a ressurectie (as you can see from the BIG population) and I would like to have this country in order to preform interesting RPs with it (as no one seems interested in RPing with Istar)

Thanks Omz. I'm just getting rid of one. I figured no use having two nations with similar sizes - economies.

17-10-2003, 04:15
if you would give me your country then i would use it for the following purpose...

a. Instill chaos in my region
b. Bring other nations with it
c. Sign multiple alliances and treaties
d. Chaos + war + weapons(army) = Profit
e. Bullshit other nations in a logical/sensible manner
f. Instill conspiracy/hatred/love/peace/chaos among other nations
g. When the smoke clears out then install peace
h. Wash hands
i. Rinse
j. Repeat process

your country is not a vital part of our region but it would be a huge asset if we(I) can make use of its full potential... :)

I support Diminix to get this nation. I've seen his RP'ing skills, and he is very good at it. Some of the things he's been involved in have shown his true ability to RP. He definitely deserves this. It would be nice for me to go for it, but i know i wouldn't win it, so i'll support the next best thing.

I think that I deserve that nation #1 because I'm bigger than it so I wont abuse the privilages to have it. #2 I am a respected nation throughout the International Community that would not abuse the rights of owning the nation in any possible way. #3 The first time you tried to give it away through RP, I had a really good one and I thought I sould have one. Im a good Role Player. #4 I respect that taking care of another nation takes responsibilty and I am willing and able to handle that responsibility. #5 My citizens are given full rights and treated with respect, I will do the same to the people of Brass Rails.

What do you say?

Those are good arguements - and your role-play idea was really good. The reason I didn't follow through with you was because of your size - I'm looking for smaller, but deserving nation that can use it to increase their roleplay options. If it went to you, it would be another puppet like it has been for me. Cheers, W.

I may have made mistakes before but i'm looking for a fresh start and promise to not return to my old ways and if i get selected we can have a shared account until i prove myself. I hope to become a gret rper and start fresh. Thanks

If I receive this nation, I promise I will not sell it. Rather, I have a friend that's sharing a nation with another friend (long story), and if that first friend was to get a new nation of approximately the same size, then he can give the shared nation to the latter friend. If you're wondering what this shared nation is, it's called Guanyu. Check its most recent RPs, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

i may not be able to offer as much as all those other countries, but i can guarantee that i won't get this nation in any sort of trouble, i will do my best to gain worldwide respect for it, and i will do my best at RP'ing, it can definitely be a learning experience having a nation of that size. Becoming a world power, and all its responsibilities is gonna be tough, but this nation will become my first and foremost nation to use. Thank you for your time and consideration.

The Hierarchy's sphere of influence is very limited in this so called alternative universe. We would most likely use a nation of this size to strengthen our ranks and help fight the upcoming Doctrinal War. We do not seek war, it has found us. It is... Inevitable. The followers of the Eternal Doctrine must be dealt with in an Ur-Quan ritual war. With or without the help of others.
