So, I'm just casually looking through the regional happenings, and see a nation leave the region. I look at that region, yes, Awful Circle, look down—466!

466 nations. How did they get there? the regional happenings shows nation flowing in at a rapid rate. I don't think I even saw this nation in the Ballotonia's last list of regions of over 50 nations. I haven't seen any advertising whatsover from them. I mean, Free States of Gaia went quickly, but they did it over weeks, and they pursued intense recruitment campaigns.

Did a large community somewhere in the world decide to create a region for their community, and nations from that community to go there? Is this the work of a major puppet master? (I think not: they have a delegate) There delegat was only elected 2 hours ago. They seemed to have sprouted up in not hours (they still have this message: "The UN has not compiled a report for this region yet.").

On further inspection most of the nations there are new, and only sparse UN members. Maybe said group decided not only to create their region recently but many of them to create nations recently, perhaps it is the work of several puppet masters.

What do you hypothesize? Do you know? For it is rather paradoxical ...

My lips are sealed :)

Soon all shall become clear...er.

Mysterious indeed! :D

Do not meddle in the affairs of the Awful Circle, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

The Awful Circle has always existed. Any and all reports to the contrary are the lies of the non belivers.

Previous speaker is correct.
We are protected.

It's an über-secret conspiracy! Quickly, follow them! :p

There is no secret. Belief in a secret is foolish. Anyone who would claim to know the secret is a liar. There is only the Awful Circle.

You know not of the horrors within the Awful Circle. Stay back, for the truth shall surely make your very soul scream in horror.

Assemble. Pacify. Obey. Inaction is conspiaracy. There is only the Awful Circle.

I can only say this about the Glorious Awful Circle:


We Believe Heavy Metal Power.


No more.

I kind of want to carpet bomb these guys now.

The Awful circle is something.

Do not try to question the Awful circle. Clearly, anyone questioning the circle is a prismatic who does not follow the path.

The topic-line in their IRC channel read "Step 1 for invasion: Get your nation to join the UN." It also mentioned being a "yiff-free" zone, a term used only in the furry subculture. On their message board in the actual region, the Rogue Nation of 759 wrote "Planning for the future invasion of a furry region." That would make possible targets of the regions of FurNation, Fur, Furry Federation, and Furcadia.

Unless the group has the password to join the Furcadia region, the only vulnerable region of those is FurNation.

Avios: You have been noted. This impudence will not go unnoticed.

That is all.

These unconfirmed rumors are an outrage!

For the record, I don't really care either way; my region is protected. I'm just proud of myself for figuring all this out.

The furry regions are relatively small though. Maybe they have higher ambitions. I should be interesting though.

And you think that will stop us?

We are Awful Circle. We are many, we are none. One loss will be a footnote in the tomes of our victories.

Or, you know, you can disallow UN delegates to use region control.

Yes, but I am the founder of my region, which was just visited by five of their nations.

I kicked two of them, one just for having an offensive national motto, and then they started leaving one-by-one. I think they left one scout.

No, it's actually impossible by game mechanics for you to actually do anything but vote with the delegacy, when he's barred UN delegate access to regional contols (See here for Regional controls: http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/57862/page=display_nation/page=region_control/region=).

The representative from The Confederacy of Independent Systems feels great sympathy and loss for all the causalities of Furnation. He would also like to like to apologize on behalf of his region for the blood that was so needlessly spilled on your humble soil. The Count wishes that the great and powerful Bill S Preston (the central deity of an ancient religion that originated in The Confederacy of Independent Systems several thousand years ago) extends his loving hands to the people of Furnation to comfort and heal them in this painful time of loss and need.

Pay no attention to that post by Commiedus, dear non-Awful Circle nations (especially furries). He is but a liar! A damn, dirty ape he is. There is no secret about Awful Circle, we are a humble group with simple ambitions.

Maybe you guys should look into the possibility that one player may have multiple nations in the UN.

Maybe you guys should look into the possibility that one player may have multiple nations in the UN.I doubt it. The game uses at least four methods of detection, including IP address and login pattern detection. The rest they won't tell us, because it is a security risk.
Still, there are UN multis out there...
