Ok guys. As you know I've editted some issues. Primarily, though, I'm a techie, not a writer, and definitely not a proofer. Thus, I'm putting my tech skills to work on the issues, so I can say that there shall shortly be some (*ahem*) interesting issues in the pool that can be found if you're lucky.

*grins with secret knowledge* :P

*curses your secret knowledge*

So...some interesting new issues are coming?

::grins slowly. Not for dramatic effect, though it is dramatic, but because it takes time to remember the specific combination of muscle movements needed to acheive the effect::

Did my buffet issue make it through the Mod-review process?

*Grabs his head and runs around screaming*

I can't take the suspense! Shed some light of knowledge on us, all knowing one! :lol: :P

We're not going to tell you if you're issue's been rejected or not 'k? :wink:

If it's accepted however, you'll know when it's been coded. :)

"We're not gonna say. Because we say we're not gonna say. So we're gonna leave you cooling your heels, not knowing if your issue was rejected or merely languishng in the backlog." :wink:

It's funny because it's true.

Anyway.

Some lucky people will get interesting issues and now I say no more.

*padlocks mouth and throws away key*

ARG!!

What the hell is the point of this topic then!! Just to make me mad!!1 :x

Aw, RepProd's "re-legalize automobiles" issue got accepted and my vastly superior one didn't. :(

Hm... >_>

Hey, we're still sorting through the backlog- about when did yours get submitted? (to give a vague idea of where it is in the backlog)

Still waiting for my public transport and free healthcare issues... :(

Must. . . make. . . 24. . . more puppets

(Most of my puppets are SLP, LWU, or LDS so I don't need those)

If you see it, you will know. :wink:

Way back when.Soon after the first new issues started appearing.

Hmmm...

*creates 99 puppets*
Nice try, but with the server so slow it is taking me roughly ten minutes per puppet, plus I keep screwing some of them up. You could not quickly create 99 puppets.

Yes, I know that he is joking

Not 99, no. But 34 is manageable! And they don't all have to be active on the forums, of course!
Im joking too.....<_<....>_>....<_<...yeah.

And the first one is in the system . . . an no, creating puppets won't help unless you are really patient.

Is this the "End of the world" issue?

Durn. Wait...if the issue was just put into circulation, then I won't get it till tommorrows update.

Whew...finally made all my puppets! Now I just have to wait... :P

And the first one is in the system . . . an no, creating puppets won't help unless you are really patient.
but I now have 27 puppets in the region "Political Variety, and by the time that they each two weeks they will each be the government type assigned to them in their motto.

Wouldn't that enable me to get issues aimed at only one government type which I could not get on my predominitely high-low-high puppets and my few right-wing utopias and dictatoreships otherwise?

Not 99, no. But 34 is manageable! And they don't all have to be active on the forums, of course!

Im joking too.....<_<....>_>....<_<...yeah.

I have over 100 puppets still around (plus about two dozen gone, only one of which I want revived at the moment), but the key thing is, I created 27 yesterday, 20 about a month ago, and eighteen (I think) 18, a few weeks ago, and other than that I usually only create them in batches of four every week or so, or even individually.

Of course most of them have never posted on the forums at all, and the highest post count of my puppets, Acrophilia, is around a dozen. I do have three which I have been meaning to create forum alter-egos with, but have not gotten around to it. Expect one of them to become rather famous (or infamous, depending on whom you ask) aroud Thanksgiving. :twisted:

I don't see how having puppets doesn't help; if these issues are random, the more puppets I have, the higher the chances of getting the issue in at least one nation; if it isn't, my puppets all have their own various extremities, which I imagine is the main other requirement. Unless of course population, age or UN membership is a factor. :(

I have some pretty large puppets, so it must be UN membership that is a factor (My largest one, Nokhcheav is one day and like 4 million less than Qaaolchoura itself) I have twelve with over 500 pop (ironically I have a parody nation of an obscure player who was an especially annoying n00b when I created it, which I only keep around beacause of its size), and several that are close.

Anything is fair game. Actually, pretty much everyone of these issues that I submit will be dependant upon at least one player controlled setting (in addition to other things).

Thankee Salusa. I will now give each of my puppets in Anatolia, and my old mexiacan pppets different settings (by now I mean in a while)

:D

Oh, there are times when I like my life . . . . .

Just ask Peng-Pau for the url to the moderator forum.

I don't really think that even he could hack that

But the URL is worthless if we can't read it :cry:

And I am pretty sure I know what that URL is

I think that it's http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=7 since at least in invisionfree you can not create forum numbers out of order, seven is the only one that "does not exist", when a mod moves a topic into the forum the topic "does not exist" either, and the timeline seems about right.

I'm shooting down little green aliens. :P


Qaaolchoura Decides:
Close Encounters of the Sci-fi Kind?
Government Acts
The Issue

A recent, well-publicized UFO sighting over rural areas of Qaaolchoura has turned people's attention to the skies, and what... or who... might be up there.
The Debate

1. "This event proves one thing: there are other life-forms out there," says eccentric astronomer Prudence Jefferson, "All we have to do is find them! What is the price of a few hundred Radio Telescopes compared to the benefit of living in peace and harmony with our brethren of the stars?"
[Accept]

2. "Spies! Its gotta be spies! A few planes or satellites from our enemies or 'allies' in our region," rages General Johan Mistletoe, head of Qaaolchoura's military, "The only way to keep those snoops out of our airspace is to patrol the streets 'n skies, and shoot 'em down! Even if they are some sort of little green aliens, a couple of SAM batteries and a few flak cannons'll keep 'em from abducting our gwajhzand conure-hawks."

This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.

3. "Extraterrestrial lifeforms? Alien invaders? I don't know why we even have to listen to such idiocy!" complains prize-winning physicist Billy-Bob Christmas, "The idea of 'aliens' on another planet is highly unlikely, and even if they did exist, getting from there to here is technically impossible! I say we forget this nonsense and stop spending our tax dollars on it. Leave this sort of foolishness to the people who attend those 'trekkie' conventions."
[Accept]

The Government Position

The government has indicated its intention to follow the recommendations of Option 2.

If you wish, you may simply dismiss this issue.

Issue by: The People's Republic of Spyr
Editor: SalusaSecondus

To follow one of the recommendations above, simply click on the link. The Qaaolchoura government will bring in the new law overnight.


Shouldn't this really be an easter egg Sal?

No, there are common UFO sightings in the real world. That is a completely realistic issue, as are all of the possible outcomes.

You ain't found it yet.

You ain't found it yet.
But won't I find that I've shot down little green critters and am being invaded from outer space when the update rolls around? :?

If not, what's the fun in chosing the second option.

*grin* Close encounters almost was turned into an Egg... then we found a better one :twisted:

I chose the first option on #81.

I chose the first option on #81.
Huh, wait a second. . .
Is ths a semi-universal issue (any nations over the two week limit and with space in the issue bank get it)?
My only other oldish puppet with an empty issue bank got it as well.

Yes, #81 is a 'common' issue. A large number of my puppets received it.

not that knowing the number means anything

I haven't even gotten the last easter egg yet (population :(), and now a NEW one? :P

Yup! Since you guys know about easter egg issues now though, the criteria are a lot trickier than the lever issue :twisted:

By Sal's best estimate, only about 2,000 nations met the criteria for it when he first coded the issue. 8)

Hopefully one of them is active enough to post it so we can all figure it out again, then ...
*curses mods and their secret knowledge :evil:*

<--- goes through all of his puppets and clears out their issue banks

<--- also hopes that one of Qaa's many puppets was in the 2,000

OK... 9803 pages of UN Ranking times 10 nations per page divided by 2000 eligible nations equals one eligible nation per 49.015 pages.

I went through the first 50 pages of UN Rankings (whew... talk about needing a life) and it was in none of the nations' spotlights, that I could see. I chose to go through the Rankings rather than the alphabetical list for purposes of seeing only highly populated nations, but perhaps their argicultral sector has to be low to get this issue :lol:

Or perhaps, this is one egg we will never see. *sighs heavily*

put this as a different topic in the tech forum and someone will help you :arrow:

Man, nobody's found it yet? At this rate we'll all be waiting 'til the cows come home! If an egg like this has you people stumped... man oh man, you won't stand a chance against the future plans!

Hmm, looks like I made the requirements a tad too tight. The fact that zero nations are currently eligible just doesn't feel right. I'll try to change it so that a few more qualify.
