NationStates Jolt Archive

This thread is designed for those who want to have certain stories added, their Wars (coups, international wars, civil wars, rebellions), their leadership changes, weddings, deaths, or any other significant events in their nations made public in THE MAIN THREAD (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=566219)

Because the OOC is cluttering the main thread, I felt this would be a better place to put your comments, questions, or addition requests.

If you want to add to a story or want to expand on a story, please feel free to post it in the main thread. If you have an idea for a story or want to have an update made to an ongoing story, post it here.


RULES TO GET A STORY COVERED BY INTO THE UNKNOWN:

1) Wars and Conflicts: Please include who is fighting (factions/nations), why they are fighting and what caused the conflict, any major highlights (nukes going off, battles won/lost, cities bombed, ships sunk), and a link to the story. Please keep it unbiased and fair.

2) Propaganda: If you want to have your propaganda covered, please lable it as such for me. Include details and if you have them, links.

3) UFO, Ghost, Strange stories: Again, please label them as such. Details are good to have, as well as links if you have them.

4) Nation Intros: If you want your national introduction to NS covered, please include a link to your introduction thread, what government type your nation is, any details or history you want added, and any basic information that you believe is pertanent.

5) All submitted stories/news items are subject to acceptance or rejection. I can't include all stories, and I reserve the right to modify wording, edit news announcements to fit my length requirements, or add reactions of other nations.

6) INTERVIEWS: normally I don't do them but if you really want an interview, CONTACT ME BY TELEGRAM on the NS website. Send me a proposal on what you want to do for your interview. I limit interviews to the same kind of main guests you would find interviewed by Coast to Coast AM with George Noory, Ian Punnet, or Art Bell. If you are unsure, go to the coasttocoastam.com website and click on the "past guests" link. If you have a great idea, that doesn't conform, TG me anyway and I will review your proposal. If approved, I will exchange IM information with you and we can do a quick Q&A via IM. Expect 20-40 questions of which I will trim down to what I feel will work with the thread length I am aiming for. Q&A can be done IC or OOC. If IC, I will post replies and questions verbatum (word for word).

7) CONTINUING STORIES: Stories or followups to previous stories need to be clearly marked as such (and a link to the original story, or a copy/paste of the original story works wonderfully).


Thanks and I look forward to your ideas!

This was meant to be a TG, but for some reason I cannot send or recieve them anymore, but meh.

The idea for a story was the involvement of SRPA, a super-secret organisation within Ustio defending it from the Supernatural, Extraterrestrial etc. I thought that you could run a story about someone spotting strange soldiers during the occurance of some natural phenomenon. The only thing is, i wouldn't want names mentioned on behalf of SRPA, as officially they don't exist.

Just an idea. Roll with it if you like.

I already told you mine but, i'll put it here.

Shloc's goverment as fallen to a Coup, and its president was publicly excuted on international broadcast, durning that broadcast a man steped into the camera shot saying, they have aquired Nuclear Weapons from a underground project made by the Shloc president. He Demanded for all Nations of the world to demiltarize or he will use the nukes on different projects. 2 Nations invaded so far in response to this threat.

If you gonna use this I can RP myself being some science person telling you the dangers of fallout and such :P

The combined governments of ODECON are sending massive amounts of "medical supplies" to the Imperial Republic of Greston via cargo ship. These "medical supplies" are in anticipation of an epidemic of "Dengue fever" in Greston, and are being escorted by convoys of Leistungi, Stevidian, Grestonian, and other allied destroyers.

There are absolutely no main battle tanks onboard these ships. Contrary to what the National Inquirer writes, these ships are not carrying troops to bolster Greston's defenses against Gatawan aggression.

Karsh did you receive my telegram?

Feel free to add a story about the ongoing skirmishes in my African provinces. Tolvan has been combating leftist guerillas operting out of neighboring states since the late 1960s. Think the RL 1980s "bush wars" in South Africa, minus Apartheid. I can provide additional information if it is required.

I'll delete my post in the IC thread sometime later today.

Please, any details you have would be greatly apprecaite. The more detailed it is, the more I can add to the story (because otherwise I have to make things up that could be off-track or not jiving with your nation or the situation). Thanks

Sorry, I didn't get it :(

Please mention this, somehow, in your thread. Aresium is, by the way, a puppet of Ixania. Speaking of that nation, Karshkovia, is your woman still married to the Ixanian Empress' assistant? Just wanted to make sure for future reference. :tongue:

Yes, I believe she is, Ixania. and I certainly will include that in our next broadcast.

Excellent. Glad to know she still is (I was sure she was married to him, with a child or two, but we just didn't RP it all happening) but, could you, telegram me (Ixania) with information about her so I can refer to it when needed? Also, I do hope Karshkovia will not only renew relations with Ixania but, also, open relations with Aresium. Also, great work with your news thread. You've done excellent work; I was surprised to see your Red Bird bit on there. :p

Check your profile page I just sent it as a visitor message

All news stories added so far except for Tolvan, Ahfera and Aresium. Just need details/info back from Tolvan and Ahfera first and need to read Aresium's post when I get home.

Yep, got Ralkovia's stories all set and thanks! They look pretty good!

All you need to know, Karsh, is just that Aresium is opening its borders to diplomatic relations with other nations and what not. The link I sent you pretty much is to a "We're new to the world and we want friends!"style of thread.

Ah...ok...I'll read up on it to catch any details I can expand on. It definately will be in the next broadcast.

Also, if anyone has any marriages, divorces, deaths, regrime changes...I concider them just as important as UFOs, paranormal, and other stories of the like.

Thanks for the help guys (and gals), Just before I post in the main thread, I will make a post here saying everything prior to that post was included (or not and then the reason why if not) and everything after that post will be in the next episode.

I think that is a good way to keep track of what is what.

ATTN FT NATIONS:

If your nation is FT but you play it as the same time line as MT, I would invite you to join the fun!

What I mean is any nation that sees themselves at FT but play as you are in the current year of 2008 (not 2500 or 3001), I would invite you to send me your stories.

I do run a few 'UFO' stories and I thought it would be fun to see if I could get a few FT nations that wouldn't mind having a 'ufo' nut talk about them. Concidering the validity that the public gives those who claim to have seen or met ETs or "the Greys", I thought it wouldn't be breaking that FT/MT boundry much.

I've had a few MT/FT crossovers (one where an FT nation agreed to RP a downed UFO was my favorite) so I thought I would ask a few FT nations if they wouldn't mind having a 'UFO' expert or nut....depending on your point of view... talking about your nation or an event in your nation.

If you don't want to do that, it's ok and I totally understand. I thank you for your time and hope you have a great evening.

Here's some background info.

The Tolvanic Home Islands are located in the Eastern Caribbean and are home to tthe bulk of the population, about 50 million people live in the Africa Provinces (RL South Africa). This area was added to the Commonwealth in the 1890s and has a majority Black population, however most of the economic and political power is held by Whites and Hispanics of Tolvanic decent. Since the late 1960s leftist Black guerillas have been raiding mounting cross border raids using the neighboring nations as bases. (consider them as NPCs). As a result a low level bush war has gone on ever since. The Tolvanic Army, mostly White and Hispanic, has been raiding and bombing rebel bases over the border for years. Feel free make up names of places and people as you wish.

For reference my Army in Africa mostly uses the TLAV family of armoured vehicles for combat.

What two nations have invaded so far, may I ask? Have any nukes been used? do you have a link to the story I could look over? thanks
Oocly people know that the terrorist blew the nuke silos to make it apper liek it was attacked,

Icly it seems like a Nuclear attack because some of the silos were located in citys and towns.

OOC: If you're looking to expand your affiliates, Ustio Broadcasting Company Radio (UBCR) would be glad to become one.

Ustio: Great! I'll post that in the next broadcast.
Ahfera: Just need to know which two nations have invaded and I can put your story up on the next broadcast.

you can use this post for something
http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14046491&postcount=31

IMHQ is Imperial Military Headquarters

ooc: will do. Thanks for the heads up!

Ustio: Great! I'll post that in the next broadcast.
Ahfera: Just need to know which two nations have invaded and I can put your story up on the next broadcast.


Red Tide invaded with a massive juggernaught force claiming to "perserve the peace." Also The Battlehawk sent a special forces team to save the president from being killed, but they were shot down and currently are engageing terrorist forces.

ooc: great! I'll include that story in my next broadcast.

A prominent opposition politician in Snefaldia's government died last week (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14045478&postcount=36) under mysterious circumstances, one Cheshathan Manakhart. Head of the Imperial Party, he was a radical xenophobe and ardent militarist who favored huge colonial expansions and the conquering of all non-Snefaldian peoples, as well as a fervent believer in the native Snefaldian faith of Aatem Nal.

However, his death by apparent aneurism has left some asking questions as to why a man in general good health could die so quickly. Unnamed sources in the Bureau of Epidemiology (A sub-office of the Ministry Health) suggest he was poisoned, but all reports are unconfirmed.

After much legal wrangling, the Commonwealth Department of Defense released several documents under the Freedom of Information Act requested by the Ufological society Sky-Gazers. The documents reveal that 20 years ago, then-Lt. Commander Steven Vincent Galindo reported intercepting and engaging an unidentified object while serving as an F-14 pilot aboard the carrier, Valkyrie. While most, if not all, of the document has been blacked out, there is enough to discern that, on the night in question, an unidentified object was detected on the ships radar. Two fighters, including the Premier's, were launched to intercept. Upon coming into contact with the object, described as, "...amorphous, fluctuating between fuschia to cobalt and colors inbetween..." the pilots were ordered to engage and down the object. As the report continues, the pilots were able to gain a lock on the object, which suddenly accelerated beyond visual range, only to suddenly appear between and behind its pursuers. The Department of Defense and the Premier have refused to make any statements concerning this incident.

ooc: thought i'd add my own ufo story. also, i'd like to have an interview w/ the Premier about it.

My story looks good, feel free to add more if you wish, I'm planning on starting some form of RP based on the insurgency one day.

As the "outbreak" in Greston grows more serious, more and more cargo ships arrive daily to bring "medical supplies." In fact, it is rumored that a number of Leistungi (adjective, not noun) B-22 "Zeus" bombers were seen circling Greston to "airdrop supplies." The fact that the B-22 is not a cargo plane means nothing whatsoever.

And there are no ODEFOR tanks in Greston. Seriously.

There isn't a nuclear submarine screen operating 200 km outside Grestonian waters either. This is their week off, and they've decided to anchor off of sunny Greston. They are most certainly not running missile drills.

Ustio: I will add the radio affilliate and to be honest, North was just the first direction I picked. Just a coincidence I guess.

Ahfera: I will add your conflict to the next broadcast.. Thanks for the heads up.

Imperial Isa: Thanks for the link, I will read through it and do a news blurb on it

Snefaldia: your national opposition leader's death will be covered. Thanks for the notice

Free United States: I love the story. I'll add the story to the news and then we can work out the interview in TGs.

Neo-Ixania: I'll definately mention the assasination of the Princess. Thanks!

Leistung: Thanks for the update! I'll get it on the 'air'

The Battlehawk: Yes, I'll put a report on the Aios Civil war expanding into a full blown international conflict.

Vaarshire: I'll add the afflilliate! Thanks for joining the UNKNOWN family! Also, keep an eye out for a fun event in your nation in the next broadcast.

Lynion: Fungi war will be covered. Thanks for keeping me updated!

Blackhelm Confederacy: I appreciate the complements. I'll be happy to do an interview.

TO ALL: If you want to do an interview, interviews are limited - right now - to the oddball 'main guest' interviews like Coast to Coast (http://www.coasttocoastam.com) would do. Basically the UFO, Bigfoot, Pyrimid, ghosts, abduction-type interviews. I can do one interview a broadcast, otherwise the show is too long and people click away before reading it all.

ALL SUGGESTIONS TO THIS POINT WILL BE ADDED TO THE 10/13/08 BROADCAST. ANY SUGGESTIONS AFTER THIS POINT WILL BE ADDED TO THE NEXT BROADCAST (possibly 10/14 or 10/15)

Is anyone a fan of the sitcom "Friends"? If so, I have a story I'll post that includes your nation and one of the "Friends" cast members.

FUS, I'll be contacting you tonight.

EVERYONE: Get your stories in shortly or they will not be on tonight's broadcast.

I already posted the phone call in the other thread and I would also like to say that I'm making a new country called 'Surzea' and would be willing send you a message with details if you're interested.

Could you do a story about how ralkovia is in a huge civil war and is in need of some help. It might generate some interest in the thread

If it's not too late, could you add RTV Radio 3 as one of your new affiliates? Plus I'd love to have a short story done on a song competition that just took place in Ruccola for NS' version of the Eurovision Song Contest. Here's a short outline for you to work with:

National finals for the WorldVision Song Contest were concluded in Ruccola last night, with the popular folk band Cerulean garnering sixty-two percent of the popular vote versus thirty-eight percent for runners-up Crossed Wires, a dance music group renowned for their humorous lyrics and choreography. Cerulean's song 'Under a Full Moon' has now been selected as Ruccola's debut entry to the international competition.

More details can be found here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=568926). Thanks a lot! :)

Here is something for the show.

In The Sea-Water Swamps of Sidnanisyua, The Ryou Black Islands, reports of a 7 foot tail Ape-like Humanoid are coming in almos everyday. The Ape-man, known as Swampy, was first thought off as a Misidenified Ryouese Macaque. But It is not the case as The Ryouese Macaque is 5 ft, 9 in in height and has a two foot lone tail, while Swampy is 7 ft, 7 inches tall and has no tail.

Who or what Swampy is is unknown.
