Welcome Rivillia, Of The Twin Cities, Pushkash, Isomede, Friaye, Poloneisa, Olicandrocia, Sadness And Anger, Lerakio, Denca, Doge Capitali, Cathan, and Ithuster to Refugia!
It's so nice to have you! You've already received our welcome telegram, which gives a lot of quality information, but I wanted to point a few things out real quick that might help you settle into the region a bit better. Refugia is part of a larger community named Calamity Refuge, or CalRef. We have a discord here: https://calref.network/chat/ and a forum here: https://calref.cc/index.php. If you'd like to be in a place where you can just chill and be around friendly people, those are the links for you. We host game nights and movie nights from the discord server, and have been recently making our way through the Studio Ghibli catalogue. On the forum we have RPs and spam games (not really related to NS).
If you're interested and haven't already done so, please consider joining the World Assembly! Click the link to learn more information on that. If you join the WA, you can endorse other nations in the region (endorsing the delegate increases our regional vote) and get endorsed in return. You'll also become a Refugia Member State, which means you can vote in our elections and get a spot on our map of Refugia!
If you have any questions, please let us know. Everyone here is really friendly and almost never bite other people. If you'd rather read up on things instead of asking though, here's a dispatch that can help: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1449847
Also welcome back to the friends we missed, The Everlasting Kingdom Of Zeal, Skanatavria, Costa Brillante, Gueeweeuelooue, Gueeweeuelooue, Gueeweeuelooue, and Ezpassion!

You should be! They're extremely impressive. I had a big hiccup early on and it's been so hard for me to get back over 90, but I did it recently. Protect that income equality :D

Keep it going until everyone has a negative net wealth.

I didn't mean it literally, sorry. I meant in-game, as the leader, you can't, since your nation now has no internet access.
Lower French Gregballs, Imperve
ik, but thanks for clarifying
Lower French Gregballs
Maybe the World Assembly telegrams wouldn't find a way into your inbox now that you severed the connection

NO WHAT DID I JUST DO I ACCIDENTALLY BANNED THE INTERNET
Lower French Gregballs, Imperve
This seems like a trend nowadays.
Lower French Gregballs, Typica, Sylh Alanor, Araine, Imperve, Erie-Arcadia Of Wombats, Tiralta
Seems so it was on that humor sensitivity one and I pressed the one that
was from the comedians point of view and apparently that banned the internet
Lower French Gregballs, Imperve, Avatar Webby
I dismiss issues like that in which no option is good for my statistics.
Lower French Gregballs, Typica, Imperve, Erie-Arcadia Of Wombats
Yeah I should probably start to do that
Lower French Gregballs, Typica, Imperve, Avatar Webby
how do stats move by themselfs without doing an issue, suddenly a dictatorship with a sad face flag becomes 5% inclusive
Typica, Imperve, Avatar Webby, Tiralta
The reason is that 200k+ other nations exist to bump you up and down the rankings. Sometimes there is an influx of new nations, and at other times there is an influx of CTEing.
Typica, Vikoland, Imperve, Tiralta
that's the same one i lost my internet on
Lower French Gregballs
it seems i am the only one who lost the internet... ON PURPOSE!
i mean, cmon, you gotta do everything for patriotism, at least if you had my brain
Imperve
That's small change. I once banned computers entirely by accident.
Took me a while, but eventually I managed to reverse it and raise my science considerably. Took quite a while though.
They will dispatch them with pigeon carriers (thanks, Refuge Isle, for the idea)

Now that the Liberate A Liberal Haven passed, what actually happens in game? I've only been on Nation States for 6 weeks so never seen that kind of proposal before!
Typica, Sylh Alanor, Vikoland, Araine, Imperve
It takes the implemented password off the region, which in this case means that whoever gains control over the region (which has been the focus of some gameplay events the last few days) can't implement a password and freeze people out until the liberation is repealed.

As far as I know, only delegates can endorse proposals. Thus, the majority here cannot do so. I also think nobody is likely to, seeing as it looks like a joke proposal.
Chacapoya, Imperve
Hello!
I didn't see it but it appears to not exist as of now.

I don't remember a single I time I read something in the WA, I just stare at it, hum, then vote what Sylh Alanor voted for because I honestly do not have the energy for that.
Sylh Alanor, Imperve, Avatar Webby
lol
that happens to me sometimes too
Typica, Sylh Alanor, Floofybit
If you ever want some reasoning, you can ask for it here or in floor-5 of the discord server, and someone'll be like "Oh yeah Emily's dumb, she should have voted this way instead."

Notice:
The Refugia regional map has been updated once again. I'm pleased to announce the new additions of Valdonland, Fuernox, and Inaros Opa who now have new spaces carved out. This takes the regional map to a staggering 46 nations. That 46 takes into consideration The Sample Chef Community, who was removed for CTEing a couple months ago, which is very sad. But the good news is that this means three new islands have opened up for habitation.
Other changes:
Tovenia has also expanded to half the remaining free space on their mutual island with Araine.
Everetunga-Hari has also enlarged to touch the sea and ocean.
Aephony's Y has been made visible once again.
We've also added two new zones to the agreement, the first being the Chacapoyan Airspace Sovereignty Accords, as well as the The Araito Treaty. And the details on both of those can be seen in the newly updated map dispatch, check it out!

Argh I really hate the wording of some of the issues, especially the ones with a huge knock on effect or policy effect.
I answered an issue with the response that policies are more important than popularity contests and politicians' personalities and suddenly my political freedom goes from 1 point off "excellent" again to "some" and I've cancelled my democratic elections policy and introduced the autocracy policy?
