Has anyone else been finding NS issues starting to repeat themselves? I just got one of them for the 3rd time already, and I've only been on nation-states maybe 5 months.

Stickied in Got Issues? And yes, there are only so many Issues (about 190 at the moment, I believe), so some repetition is inevitable.

But once you know what they do, when you get them you don't have to waste all that time reading them through, just click "Option 1" because you know it raised your economy from "Powerhouse" to "All-Consuming" last time and it can't hurt this time around as well.

I remember back in the day when we had less than 100 issues, and we were glad to get that many. Back then we had to wait, downstream and upstream, though dialup and when the forums were slow, but we never could complain. Now, where is my social security check. *whacks computer screen with wooden cane* :)

I believe you can submit issues after a while, though it takes a while for the mods to go through them and select the cream of the crop. :)

That's true. You can submit issues when you get a population of 500 million, and it will take the mods only about 2-3 years to get through that batch.

The forums were slow? Hell I remember when trying to use the forums was like playing russian roulette, every time you clicked a link, you never knew if you got the page you wanted or an error message of some sort
