You put "Holy" in your pre-title, you mean. It may have to be in your name proper.

I've gotten the lever one before, but 'Holy' has never made it into my name or pretitle.

Also how do you get the new one? You've set the stage to get #78; just have a little patience. Every nation I have which had more than 1.25 billion in population and in which I placed a "Holy" in the pre-title eventually got the issue. To cycle through issues faster place your setting on "Two issues per day." You can just dismiss all the ones you don't like.

Only Pallor has gotten #80, or if there are others who got it, they haven't said so on this board. It's easier to figure out what the criteria are if several nations get the issue.

I've gotten the lever one before, but 'Holy' has never made it into my name or pretitle.That's really interesting because in nations where I didn't insert "Holy" into my pre-title, I still haven't gotten the issue. It comes within a couple of days of becoming a saint.

Not necessarily. You become eligible and it might take a couple days or much longer. It's random and there are a lot more issues than there used to be, so on average takes longer than it used to.

POSSIBLE SPOILER

An " Easter Egg " in the context of a computer game is a soft-ware term used to describe a hidden event placed there by the developer or game staff.

In Nation States, this means that when certain conditions are met, by your nation, then a message may be sent to you. ( Maybe via telegram ? )

For example, in this case it seems that issue ... # 78 ? about a Mysterious Lever turning up in your nation, can generate a special message, if

a) Your population is at a certain amount or above,

b) You may need a certain word in your nation pre-fix ( the bit you can select from a list or if you have over 500 million people you can type in yourself )

C) If you take the " right " decision you will get a message informing you that you have found an " Easter Egg " ... possibly put there by Max Himself ? ? ?

This is of course theory and here-say, but who knows ? ... :p

Also, I hear there is one relating to private industries into dooms-day weapons ... keep your eyes open and always consider that other choice in an issue ... what may you find ? Nothing ... or Something ... ;)

I had this issue with my old nation when it first appeared. At the time I neither had "Holy" in my name, nor did I even have half a billion people.

and dose it leave your discripter? No, issue statements are pushed out of your nation's description if you make decisions on any following issues. You can, of course, choose to do as Pallor did and stop answering issues so that you can keep the easter egg description on your nation's homepage. As far as I know, the easter egg ones don't repeat but some nations are claiming they got it without using any particular criteria so I don't know. Has anyone gotten #78 more than once?

Nothing ... or Something ... The easter egg is the issue, not a TG. Depending upon which of the three options you chose you will get one of three statements added to the last paragraph of your nation's description: one with kittens, one with an economy based on doomsday devices and I can't remember the description of the one you get if you don't pull the lever.

Here is how you get the lever thingy:
1. Find a cat of some kind
2. Drain all the blood from the cat, it has to be ALL the blood or it wont work.
3. With the blood from the cat paint an octogram on your computer monitor
4. Get an eight pound sledge hammer
5. Smash your computer screen using the hammer, it must be in the middle of the octogram
6. Eat the resulting glass shards after soaking them in Draino for eight days
7. Before your stomach and instestines totaly disintegrate you must invoke the rights of Donky Kong (Burn a red necktie)
8. Donky Kong will appear to you and grant you two wishes
9. Obviously, your first wish will be to get your digestive tract back
10. Your next wish must be for a certain small red fish, this is a code.
11. Donky Kong will grant you access to the issue which summons the lever. Congrats, now go to the doctor and have the glass removed from your mouth and apologize to your neighbors about the cat.

I already tried that, it doesn't work. Diddy came instead of Donkey and Diddy just bounced around and shrieked.

Does anyone know what it says if you don't pull the lever?

Also, can you get Easter Eggs again (repeated)?

A doomsday device lies untouched in a public park... or something along those lines.

If you don't touch the lever and listen to the hotdog salesman, you get this:


there is now a private sector based on doomsday devices (Tomzilla has found 1 easter eggs)
