Not much difference but adding a few more specifics.

BTW I'm making a post tonight. If this message is editted it is because I'm procrastinating, so don't let me edit this message and don't let me be lazy. I'm off to update BISE and write my next post in 'The End' which at this rate will take an eternity to finish. Damn me...

Not bad at all. I like that but what is "circulating capital" meaning?

Not bad at all. I like that but what is "circulating capital" meaning?

What I would woudl be called 'free capital' but I'm pretty sure that's not the correct wording.

Circulating Capital is the total ammount of raw materials, intermediatte goods, and inventories that the corporation owns. This capital is in a form that is in some ways easier to use at any given momenty and harder at others, not the one I'm looking for.

Ok took some time but found the one I was looking for: Current assets (replace circulating captal)

Current assets are capital that can be used quickly at any given moment. these are the assets that a company can use anytime or can be converted into cash quickly to be used for say entrepreneurial endeavours. This is important because let's say a company is worth 10 billion dollars, that doesn't mean it has 10 billion dollars on hand to buy whatever it wishes. Only a small fraction of this is part of the current assets. Cash, short-term investments, receivables, inventory, and pre-paid expenses can be considered current assets because they can be used quckly to purchase other things. Contrast this with Fixed assets like facotries and labor force or Intangible assests like company name and patents which cannot be converted into cash quickly.

Great now I am back in and ready to go, too bad Tyr gave away my most natural gas rich (aka profitable) territory to Hirgy but oh well I'll find some other way to fund my rise to glory.

Indeed, those gas filled states were a big help, I created a huge Inter-Continental Gas Pipeline (the PEC-GAP) that fuels all of Europe with cheap gas.

Here, here Hawdawg is most grateful for the gas supplied to Sweden, Finland, the Karelia Republic Leningrad Oblast, and England. Without it our industries and some homeowners would suffer.

Indeed, those gas filled states were a big help, I created a huge Inter-Continental Gas Pipeline (the PEC-GAP) that fuels all of Europe with cheap gas.

I still can't beleive Tyr gave that land up for scraps of Australia, its ridiculous. I mean 90% of all Russian natural gas comes from the Northern territories he gave you and now I am surrounded from all sides by TOA nations to the brink of desperation. Oh well, moving on....

Hehe. The Realm is mostly heated by the massive natural gas reserves we have in the North and Norwegian seas, as well as hydro-electric power from the many hydro-electric dams. Murmansk and Northern Norway are the main users of natural gas though, and we do import a little gas from Hirgizstan to heat those areas.

On a different note, taking into consideration the many uprisings in the Realm among the youth population and the increased threat level to the security of the Realm, His Majesty's Government has decided to reintroduce the mandatory 18-month national military service for all males at the age of 19 in the large national defense overhaul of 2006. Conscription was abolished four years ago, a highly controversial decision, but it was decided that the attempt had failed. Therefore, the first batch of new conscripts will be called in for military service in October 2006 for their basic military training, which lasts three months and includes familiarization with the new series of armaments introduced to retire the former weapons used by the Armed Forces of the Realm. It is expected that the Cottish manpower pool will increase by some 60 %.

I've realized that my state is kind of hollow - I've only got a casino and a Bank icly and officially... but I don't think that there's much else that I can offer to the world, besides this multibillion-dollar venture to build a large international convention center/island with accompanying airport...

of course, then there's criminals...

The Grand Duchy of Saint Lazare - since its inception has burgeoned into a massive economic powerfield. In a place where the population only amounts to 50,000 officially [minus foreign workers and tourists], the state declares a GDP [as of 25SEPT2006] of $7,317,963,664,951.50.

The government will be depositing about 2tril into their account, to maximize their potential from this turn-around.

Furthermore, using government appropriated funds, the Grand Duchy is setting the majority of our commerce allotment of $437,566,955,041.76 for helping local businesses invest abroad. {Apparently, our automobile industry is the top dog, but we can't physically see where we'd be building our stuff.} So, with that in mind, keep your buzzers open for future prospects in Saint Lazare. {or our soon-to-be-affiliated territories...}

This an informal claim to the following territories.

Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia (Ash Sharqiyah [part]), United Arab Emirates (Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Dubai, Fujairah, Ras al Khaymah, Sharjah, Umm al Qaywayn)

Previously owned by Elephantum, who is under D12. I will have a thread up claiming these lands sence I technecly am a newcomer. They wont be concidered my land though, it would be best to name them as Syndicate controled territory no Nerotikan Land. So basicly its an unreconized nation under the control of The Syndicate.

I would wait until Ottoman Khaif gets on here before claiming land in the Middle East, as I would say he wouldn't be happy with terrorists moving in next door, and if he isn't happy with it, then I'm not.

I dont exactly care if Ottoman Khaif doesn`t want to to claim this land. Just thought I should get that off my chest.

Kreynoria;11727187']Yes, it is still possible to claim land. And are you a part of the EV crew? Lay'll want you to make a puppet for E2.
Pyschotika uses his E-V nick here though? If there is land available, I will make a puppet.

Nuevo Rica does as well, last time I checked. That is why I rejoined EV.

Bahrain would be nice, as it seems to be available I believe, as the previous occupant is pending deletion, no? I'm learning Arabic at the moment, so it would be nice to play an Arabic nation.

Nerotika, you would be best to care about OK as he controls a hefty chunk of the middle east and has a lot of powerful freinds. I'm simply letting you know, like I would do for anyone else in your position.

That's fine but limit it somewhat slightly. You only left 2 pieces for newbies to claim. I'd say just claim 2 pieces there instead of 4 just so we can let some others come.

NR saying he'll use a puppet.

Those who had problems getting puppets to work because of forum problems didn't have anything said to them until said problems were resolved. When they were we found no problems with people using puppets. SL is the best example [sorry to bring you into this]. He had a problem with getting the puppet to work so we waited it out and it was all good.

Actually you've got it wrong. We already agreed offsite that we weren't going to act hostile or even semi-hostile to you that we were just going to keep a new status-quo and that was "you don't bother us, we won't bother you."

I haven't said anything or shown any hostility toward you since you rejoined EII in fact if you will check back when you first reappeared, I welcomed you. I haven't announced any official "blockade" of Pushkan goods nor have I denied any business the ability to ship goods via Leningrad Oblast or the Karelia Republic to your nation. As far as Hawdawg is concerned your communist country is just another nation next door. Now I haven't ran out and invited your leadership to a cozy warm fire side chat, but we haven't thrown stones at you either. So put the stereotype-casting in your pocket please. Hawdawg isn't looking to go to war.

Take Andorra while your at it..that will at least get you a place in Europe

As much as E2 nations love to spread out massively I'd recommend consolidation.

Well then you can hopefully forgive me for making a simple mistake.

When I saw him posting as Nuevo Rica on the EV Thread, and Nerotika mentioned it to me and said he thinks he doesn't see the Decree any more, I assumed it would be okay.

As it is still pretty stupid, I really don't want to be in an argument over anything because it's rather retarded.

Anyways, sure I'll go use the puppeteering thing as it is too difficult to tell the difference for some of us here on Earth II between 'EII' and 'EV' threads.

Actually now that i think about it. Im planning on getting into the beer industry and open a brewery in Kursk. Were going to flood the market with cheap water down imports and own the world industry. Im serious about that too

I remember one time when I tried to undercut world oil prices by selling it at 1% above production costs. But no one really paid it much attention.

Hawdawg would like to invest in this.

A serious question here. I've gotten some telegrams and requests (no I'm not telling so no finger pointing) about Soviet Bloc. I mean it's pretty f'd up what happened to him and all with the car accident and from what it seems he's making a good recovery (which is good news all around). However, some people have been asking whether or not his land should be offered up to claim since he's well past Decree 12 status. What does everyone think? SB if you're out there and you see this, please leave us some input. We'd love to hear how you are.

That sounds good to us. If you want to use a puppet here or there it is no matter just let us know if you are using one here so we can adjust stuff. And no you won't be killed if you don't feel like logging out once in a while and post. We've all done it before.

And as much as I know you'd love to have more free-land, I'm not giving anymore of mine up. I did with Australia and that was a bad idea.

The circumstances surrounding his absence as just as dire as the trouble North Germania had to deal with during his horrible exit form New Orleans last year. We left him (NG) an open-ended invitation to get back when he could. I don't see much difference with SB. If he wants to stay but hasn't been able to get on because the situation with his accident has prevented it, we shouldn't keep him out of the community. If the issue is forced, he should at least have some say in what/how his territory is divided up due to the nature of his absence.

Yeah I would love for him to have some say in the matter and I agree with you there. I want to see what people think though because it's definitely been one issue where I haven't taken anyone's opinion into account whatsoever. I know I've done that in the past but I've lightened up some since then ;).

Kreynoria;11731688']I remember one time when I tried to undercut world oil prices by selling it at 1% above production costs. But no one really paid it much attention.

I ended up buying all (or a lot) of your cheap oil, then reselling the purchased oil at like 2% above production cost, making myself a good profit. Like that one hot-dog stand commercial where the two guys are selling hot dogs; the first says 1 hot-dog for $1, the next says 2 hotdogs for $1, the other responds with 3 hotdogs for $1. Finally one puts up a sign that says 100 hotdogs for $1, so his competitor walks across the street and hands him a buck...

Lesson: don't sell too cheap, it might end up biting you in the ass.

I bet I could do the same thing with cheap beer.

I think SB's land should stay SB's land, I mean he has a very valid reason for not being with us right now and many of us know him and talk to him on MSN and shit so we know he doesn't just hold that land down for the heck of it. So i say his land should be off limits unless he tells us that he wants to leave E2.

Thanks to Pushka for bringing this to my attention, but yes, I'm definately sorry for my lack of RPing recently, and for awhile. The truth is, right now, I'm done with physical therapy but what I still have to do is get a new prosthetic leg which will happen within the next few weeks (and the assorted doctor visits). But the bad thing with this timing, now, is the fact that not only do I have school now, but also, immediately when I get home, farm work. Harvest is just rolling into gear (stalled at the moment due to wetness) even though I've just recently attempted to get back into the swing of RP-related things. The only real good time periods for me are late fall, winter, and the middle of summer.

I try to do what I can but I've got school from 6:30AM to 3:00PM and from then until 9-10PM working in the field, and if its a weekend, I'll regularly work from 8AM til midnight going on one. That scedule offers little time for NS, let alone homework and everything else.

And trust me, I really hate just taking up space like I am now and I really hope that I can change that. If not, I will withdraw from EII, I just don't know at this point.

I use a puppet for EV, but I post under Neuvo Rica. (I forgot the password to post as my EV puppet on jolt - although I could try and find it out off of one of the mods if that's a problem). That's probably also why the claims list says NR on EV. I'll get it sorted out.

Kreynoria, what makes you think you have a say in world oil prices? What the hell oil reserves do you have? As the biggest oil producer and exporter (with OK being second largest) I think I can safely say that fair and balanced oil prices are always assured in E2 unless myself and OK somehow loose control of our oil resources (which doesn't seem at all likely).


Hirgizstan-Biggest Cars, Cheapest Gas!

(Of course the COH also produces lots of E85 due to our large agricultural sector, and for a while now every new model of car produced in the COH has to be FLEX-FUEL compatible, i.e. petroleum and E85. E85 is just as cheap as gas in most places, although in Chad and Libya it is slightly more expensive due to logistical costs).

Hirgy, Cot, and who ever else was involved in the incident in the Pacific just before I left. We never signed a peace agreement so in order for me to be able to have atleast neutral relations with your nations we should get on that.

No, there was an agreement, we won. Pretty simple really. And I'm not trying to be annoying here, I saw it as a victory and I reckon thats how others saw it, thus since you've come back I believe we're all already neutral, like starting on a clean sheet.

Eh, oh well, too bad cause thats not how my government sees it. Semi-hostility it is then.

No two Govt's see eye to eye on everything. Frankly you can view it whatever way you please, it won't stop me sleeping at night. But your taking hostility from this for no reason, just like you did in the past.

Even if I lost there still has to be some kind of agreement on something, oh well, I can't turn back now anyways, I already called Cot my enemy. Next step if no agreement is reached atleast with Cotland, shutting down the parts of Eastasian Line that go through my territory. Just common sense, I can't trade with a hostile nation.

*Clears throat*

I'd prefer it if you didn't shut down the Eurasian Line in your nation, as it runs into the UER and we do like trading with Europe.

Sorry man my hands are tied, if Cotland is hostile then I can't trade with it. In addition, if the line is just a way for NG or someone else to keep troops on my land i'd shut it down either way. What happened to commintern and hating the capitalist pigs? Common, man lol.

Pushka, many other nations use the lines that you would be cutting off including but not limited too: Bjornoya, Hawdawg, Hirgistan, Marimaia, Ottoman Khaif, Rome etc.

So far no-one has made any tangible hostile moves, just a bit of name-calling which persoanlly I thought was miscommunication, but to cut off trade to many nations who had nothing to do with this would make you the initiator of hostilities

In anycase the line could be bolstered through the Baltics and HD to get to HD, Bjornoya, and Cot and built through OK to reach Mari. In fact, by cutting off the parts that go through your territory you'd primarily be cutting off incoming goods to NG's central Asia and basically all incoming trade to Marimaia. Simply letting those pieces become a waste of money is not really in anyones best interest.

Sorry man my hands are tied, if Cotland is hostile then I can't trade with it. In addition, if the line is just a way for NG or someone else to keep troops on my land i'd shut it down either way. What happened to commintern and hating the capitalist pigs? Common, man lol.

Capitalist pigs they may be, but officially hating someone doesn't stop you taking their money. You take their money/goods/whatever, smiling at them the whole time, while using it to build yourself up to the point where you can march in and claim it all for yourself. Then it all gets nationalised and put to the use of the people (official line anyway).

Anyway, there'll be a TG waiting for you in a couple of minutes. Also, everyone else, forget you just read the above paragraph. The UER isn't really like that.

As i said, its all up to Cot.

Eh well if its still up for claim I would like to take Elephantum's part of United Arab Emerates.

So far no-one has made any tangible hostile moves, just a bit of name-calling which persoanlly I thought was miscommunication, but to cut off trade to many nations who had nothing to do with this would make you the initiator of hostilities

In anycase the line could be bolstered through the Baltics and HD to get to HD, Bjornoya, and Cot and built through OK to reach Mari. In fact, by cutting off the parts that go through your territory you'd primarily be cutting off incoming goods to NG's central Asia and basically all incoming trade to Marimaia. Simply letting those pieces become a waste of money is not really in anyones best interest.

Okay let me say this again, Cot moves his troops along mine/his border and announces a blockade of my nation, or say embargo on the Russian goods traveling the Eastasian line and I can't do anything but to shut the whole thing down. I offered him peacetalks, if he accepts them then there is no problem, if he denies them then there is a problem, what you guys should be doing is trying to convince him to accept the peacetalks.

*me prepares the Omani Armoured Corps to pour over the border into whats left of Elephantum* Whats going on with the UAE anyway? I thought that terrorist thingy was going to take it over?

Actually Bjornoya, I don't use the Eastasian Line as I don't trade with anyone in the east. The partners of the PEC-GAP are the only nations I trade with in Russia/Europe, thus most of my trade goes west.

And Pushka, you can shut the line down, thats fine with me, but then I'll be stopping all Pushkan flights over COH Territory (and there's a lot of it) and there will be no Pushkan shipping allowed within my nautical boundaries (25nm).

If you've already done that yourself then fine, but the fact is no one has been hostile to you, in fact I am surprised that Cot or any TOA member posted in your 'comeback' thread, and you should probably take it as a good sign that they did.

First of all the only one who posted in my comeback thread is Brinkman (unless you mean one on NS), second Cot is already showing open hostility towards me and I have offered him a way out of this, if he wants to take it. Sorry for me not being able to take Cot closing his borders on me as a good sign. Yeah you got me by the balls, I know, but don't worry I'll deal with the transportation issues, my god my lands are still connected even though by just a thread of land.

I don't plan to cut off air-routes or shipping, but it could happen if hostilities arise.

Anyway, I think the map done by Lay of Russia is slightly off, I think the colouring makes that sliver of land seem smaller than it really is. I always consider it to be slightly bigger, as it looks that way on the map outlining the states/regions.

Thats why you look at the Real life map of russia and zoom in 400 times, there is like a two kilometer wide border that connects two of my regions together.

Yeah I know which thread you are talking about, thats the one there Cot is beggining to cut me off. How am I supposed to keep the Line running if he won't let any of my cargo through his borders?

Hey, I will be changing my Government to what I have desired most just not knowing it.

So now we'll have two states claiming to be representative of Asia.

This could be, well, interesting.

Okay... lets start at the beginning...

Hirgy, Cot, and who ever else was involved in the incident in the Pacific just before I left. We never signed a peace agreement so in order for me to be able to have atleast neutral relations with your nations we should get on that.
True, we discussed the possibilities for a peace agreement, but then we had that wee war that ended with you throwing a fit and leaving E2.
As i said, its all up to Cot.
Why would it be up to me when I'm not even a member or user of said line?
Okay let me say this again, Cot moves his troops along mine/his border and announces a blockade of my nation, or say embargo on the Russian goods traveling the Eastasian line and I can't do anything but to shut the whole thing down.

I have not announced a blockade of you, nor have I moved troops along the Cottish-Pushkan border because there is no Cottish-Pushkan border. All I've done is increase the military readiness in the area which is closest to you. I still have Bjornoya and Hawdawg as a "buffer" between us.

How have I showed open hostility against you? All I've done is to increase my defensive readiness. As for my borders, they are closed to anyone not officially recognized by the Realm or who the Realm doesn't have relations with, it be diplomatical or economical (those two usually goes hand in hand). As per now, the Realm has not recognized the existance of the RCR, much in the same way that it hasn't recognized for instance Kreynoria. Besides, given the history between the Realm and Russia, recognizion isn't too likely. The Cots do remember history...
Yeah I know which thread you are talking about, thats the one there Cot is beggining to cut me off. How am I supposed to keep the Line running if he won't let any of my cargo through his borders?
As mentioned earlier, I haven't recognized your new nation (RCR), and thus I haven't even opened relations with you. How can I cut you off then? Besides, as mentioned earlier in this post, I am not a member of the Eurasian Line and thus don't have any cargo from you running past my borders. The Realm has cargo from all the nations we have recognized and have economical relations with, such as for instance Bjornoya, Hawdawg, NG, Saint Lazare, OK, Layarteb, Soviet Bloc, et cetera. Since the Realm doesn't recognize the RCR (yet), and since we don't have a economical relationship, we don't have Russian goods in the Realm.

To sum it all up, all I've done is increase reconnaissance efforts over the former Russian Federation and to increase my military readiness in Murmansk, Northern Norway and Svalbard, all of which are quite a distance away from the nearest Russian territory. Please read the posts and understand their meaning before you start commenting. That way, we save ourselves a lot of confusion and energy.

ummm... is Pushka coming back as a remnant state of Pushka or a new state?

Because if they're a remnant state, I don't expect too much friendliness between old enemies in the first place...

If they're new, none of this historical talk should even be of a serious concern.


On another note, the Grand Duchy of Saint Lazare has announced the formation of the Massif Compagnie des Produits Pharmaceutiques et Chimiques [Massif Pharmaceuticals and Chemicals Company] - a medical and chemical research company, devoted to the advance of chemical knowledge and proliferation. In addition to their studies, the Massif Company is seeking to improve chemical engineering and studies in Saint Lazare. The government has approved a grant to aid the company in developing and likewise authorized the construction of their company headquarters in near the downtown district by the port.

In addition, the numerous embassies available are to be opened at a date very soon for purposes other than diplomatic centers.

K, I was a bit confused and I am sorry. No problem with the line then, atleast for now.

Kreynoria, what makes you think you have a say in world oil prices? What the hell oil reserves do you have? As the biggest oil producer and exporter (with OK being second largest) I think I can safely say that fair and balanced oil prices are always assured in E2 unless myself and OK somehow loose control of our oil resources (which doesn't seem at all likely).


Hirgizstan-Biggest Cars, Cheapest Gas!

(Of course the COH also produces lots of E85 due to our large agricultural sector, and for a while now every new model of car produced in the COH has to be FLEX-FUEL compatible, i.e. petroleum and E85. E85 is just as cheap as gas in most places, although in Chad and Libya it is slightly more expensive due to logistical costs).

The East Timor offshore oil reserves, which in RL are huge but undeveloped. I did a phasing out of oil in my country before you joined, so whatever I drill, I can sell.

I think Layarteb City is going to do something like this. I mean, how could we not!

Basically though, as far as the Pacific War went it was like this. War, ending in the dissolution of the Pushkan Russian state, hence no gov't to have a peace treaty with because it went bye-bye. Now there is a new gov't that is not like the previous one so it would be treated as a different state, which means that even still the peace treaty would be with the previous state (no longer in existence) so therefore there is nobody to have a peace treaty with, ergo the point is moot. Also yeah me and UER exchange goods over that line so it would be good to keep it around.

NG what about extending it to N.America?

As for Pec-Gap I believe I'm using it, or at least some of the line run through Bjornoya.

But for clarification who is and is not using the line? Is NG's list accurate? I know it is outdated but disregarding the dead nations is it correct? Or has it simply fallen out of use? If so, what are the alternatives? It should be cheaper to use the lines than any other means considering all the work put into the line and the little publicised developments of any other logistical methods. The only other form I recall is Pec-Gap which is obviously very important but I thought it was used primarily to ship oil where the Eurasian Line had a broad range of materials being shipped on it.

I can't see why the list would have changed by way of active nations not being part of the Line. Some of the materials may have but who knows. Members, I doubt it.

Indeed, I am a user of the line, but like I said, I don't send any goods eastward, only westward.

Lay or Mari, tell Kreynoria to get off my ass about how I'm invading Azimeth.

And Kreynoria, 8,500 Marines is not going to fight a war and occupy the nation by their selves. Iraq needs over 140,000 , I know this'll need more. It's called the tip of the spear, I have nearly 280,000 prepared for this and I'm sending in 100,000 slowly in my next post, and the next wave being 180,000 to the Mainland.

In response to the continued fighting in India, a non-government-affiliated organization - Organisation Internationale de Sécurité [OIS] [International Security Organization]- has been formed in Saint Lazare - has formed with the intentions to help bring back stability and order. Whereas the organization has not received official support from the government, the government has granted a temporary order for the OIS to utilize property on the International Island. The Organization - although new - has been under several stages of organization in the past year, as hostilies in India have not recently ended, although Indian Commanders have been optimistic about the campaign soon ending. The Chief Commander - General Aksay Singha - has expressed his expectations to finish significant military operations by the end of the month. Regardless, OIS Chairman Laurence de Guillemain has stated they will be planning aid operations to make the transition in India much easier for the people living there.

I'll add this thread. Yeah when OIS wants to let me know.

I'm aware of the East Timor Reserves but I'm talking about the big leagues here, 5 Million+ Barrels a day.

Reserves and production are really difficult to calculate, I tried to do it once, but it takes ages to find the correct info, it took me the guts of two weeks to find the proper information for my own territories. Middle East is the easiest to find obviously, but anywhere else is a real trial. Try looking for information on East Timor for example, its difficult and mostly concerened with Australian interest in the reserves. A ranking system sure would be good, but like I said its a real bugger to work out, and even if you do there'd be a significant margin of error because RL Production/Projected production would not tally correctly with E2 production, as in E2 there is obviously better funding etc.

I tend to put my daily output at around 20 Million barrels, but that can go up or down depending on weather (for offshore drilling), demand etc. A maximum figure for my territory, from the info I gathered would be 50 Million barrels, but I believe that would be unsustainable and overzealous, not to mention the fact that its a helluva lot of oil and it would flood the market very quickly if attempted.

In order to find a workable figure you have to take RL figures into account of E2 figures and come up with a sort of average of compromise, but for one person to do that for all Oil Producing nations would be a real chore, but perhaps a list could be compiled if we could get everyone to do their own research?

Arent RL oil values totally ridiculous in this RP? Being as each nation probably uses half what the RL world does in terms of fuel, we should work out the total population of Earth II, then scale up reserves in each nation to match this

does include that huge slice of Antartica that is left unclaimed and that was reserved for new people?

About the population thing, I'm thinking of finally getting around to putting a cap on mine for E2, but I'm trying to work out the best possible number, because in RL the land I have in Africa and some areas of Russia is largely rural, but in E2 I would have it more developed.

With Permission from Lay I’m posting this off-site RP I’ve created. Before you say anything this does have actual importance to E2. As some of you may or may not know I’m working on a new ‘system’ for E2 to make things run a little smoother and such. This RP has some prototype ‘systems’ that I’m curious as to how they work out. If this is successful it gives me a base from which to work off of. Please check it out and possible stay a little.

The dude getting hit with the Mag Lite is funny.

FYI Guys I'm still trying to figure out why my mb is down. They did something to the database that FUBAR'd it.


Also, Brigadier General Jack Delaney has won, on a game show, an all-expense paid vacation anywhere in the world for 2. Where should he go? Any nations volunteer?

I would definitely recommend Tahiti, French Polynesia. Known in Kreynoria as "Party City," it is the only place in the country where prostitution, gambling, drinking, and nude beaches are legal. It is Kreynoria's analogue to Las Vegas, but its on a tropical island to boot.

And I only RP around a 450 million population.

Given his current disposition, the Lazare Ministry of Tourism strongly suggests that he visit Asia, notably in India.

two things before i fill my eyes with stars...


1 - is my participation in RTL okay? I know that I'm iffing a lot about Layarteb, but I'm hoping I'm not iffing too much. And I'm trying to rp a guy trying to stop DVQ, but ultimately he doesn't succeed, in part because he doesn't know what it is yet [that's the reason why he's looking in the first place].

2 - Is my India campaign going okay?

Another fine note from our fine Travel Ministry - We strongly suggest visiting Japan, to visit Yakuza personnel and Nerotikan freedom fighters. Either that, or India, because he knows that there's really no other choice at the moment. Of course... there's also Egypt, which always bodes well with any travel plans, but India is so much better.

Pys it is me with the base, but Haw has troops there which is why he is concerned. What is the whole thing about anyway?

I personally don't think that you could do it alone. In fact, I doubt that anyone could or even would do it alone. But otherwise, it might be sensible. My question in the end - why build it?

Indeed, why build it?
It would be useful if there was like a long-mission or colony on the moon, or maybe if there was a big joint-nations space station etc, but since there aren't those things in space whats the point apart from maybe the odd adventurous tourist?

why do people climb everest, if it is within the wit of men, there will always be those who would attempt it. And building such a structure would make space tourism, as well as providing easier access to space

Holy Effin Man!

Yea I'm confuzzeldz then.

Anyways -

Japan is still an Empire, and keeps changing it's Political name. Bla bla bla, happy this happy that. True leader wants to remove Foreigners out of the country entirely, begin Genocide of the remaining Nerotikans, prepare the fleet for something very drastic, and perhaps lead to my good bye war.

I have operators within the Hirgizstan base Pyschotika. This was why I was concerned about any actions taking place in or around Hamamastu. These "operators" are paramilitary in orgin and are unofficially working for the Hawdawg government looking for Nerotikans in Japan. They answer to no one and have worked inside foreign countries before for my government. Your folks may eventually capture them and expel them from the country, but they will kill some of the terrorists before they leave. I also have set them up with multiple passports from many different ports of call so tracking there true identity will be difficult. The ruse they will be using is they are a soccer team from country X and as a prize for the championship they were rewarded with a tour of Asia. If this isn't enough background on where I am going let me know and I can fill in the gaps. I won't be able to add to this storyline for a few days as I am out of town until Wednesday.

Well since the Yanks lost
Can i invade Detroit

I guess that's two Christmas cards Jeremy Bonderman won't be getting...

So, in seriousness, is this the end of the line for Joe Torre? It'd be just too weird to see him not managing the New York Yankees.

Pys, the agreement we made was for two bases, one Naval base at Hammamtsu and an Air Force base at Matsumoto.

NY'ers like Torre so there would be riots.

Sorry I've been gone so long. I have homework x a million now.

I love nation-states Soooooooooooooo much...expect a sick hot RTL post tonight.

India has been pacified for the moment - it is now the Viceroyalty of Delhi.

[ooc: yes, now you can officially recognize it...]

Actually, Hirg, no offense but I remember the agreement going like this -

Hirg - i want bases, you know, so I can feel more protected and have extra troops in the area to protect my posessions out at sea.

Pys - Okay, where?

Hirg - I don't know...

Pys - Ah, well, I'm going to be bussy so when I have time to talk to you about this...well...then we'll talk about it.

We really didn't make an agreement, and the only thing you asked for was a Naval Base. And, las time I checked, I let it slide. As to this Air Force base, it doesn't really exist.

I did ask for an AF base aswell, coz I have it written down in an Excel sheet where I keep such things. But fair enough, the AF Base shall not exist if you don't remember it, and since it has never been brought up until now I see no point in arguing.

Well, I'm not trying to be...strange if you're wondering.

I actually forgot about the entire thing until you brought it up mainly because me and you never finalized it.

Infact, I only remember the Naval part.

Meh...

I also am getting rid of all foreign bases anyways...so yea.

Ride the Lightning is really getting somewhere now...

Wow 16,500...awesome!

If you haven't been following Ride the Lightning (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=448866) then I strongly suggest you start. Things are about to happen that not only will directly and profoundly affect each and every nation on Earth but also shake the foundations of truth, justice, the Empire, alliances. Friends will become enemies; enemies will become friends. Communism, capitalism, a clash of epic proportions. You should be there to see what is going to happen. I guarantee you, you won't regret it.
