Region: Alcatraz
Welcome indeed to all our new nations: Iracks Tzerdisland, BOMBS 23678945, and CoolGangs. Please join the WA and endorse Ayodhyadesha when you are able
Greater Westia
Yakuzastan, Canarcha, and BadgeHunt: welcome to you all. Great names.
Churkestan, welcome. May you thrive alongside all of us including our other newly-founded Stan, Yakuzastan
Welcome to all new nations. Please introduce yourselves
Congratulations to our community on welcoming our fiftieth (plus!) nation. I imagine it has been at least 10 years since Alcatraz had fifty members. I believe we were around 50 nations when I started this nation in 2003 and moved to Alcatraz. We grew to over 100 in the few months that followed and were one of the biggest player-created regions in the world.
Teutonic Knights, welcome. Proud that you have been founded here and to share a region with a kindred Transylvanian heart
In just a few days, we have gone from the "small" region tag to the "large" region tag. Great thanks to our new delegate Ayodhyadesha!
Ayodhyadesha, Antevile, Dive-Bombers
That's lovely news! I hope our new members are interested in taking up positions, because we would love to have them rebuild our region!
Maniaca, Antevile
All members of Alcatraz should have received at telegram from Ayodhyadesha. He or she raises a point of great concern and provides a well reasoned plan. Please join the WA if you are able and endorse Ayodhyadesha to keep Alcatraz strong. As we grow, we become a huge target for region destroyers. Thank you
Ayodhyadesha
Yep, thanks for pointing that out
(Also it's a he :-)
Enjoy Saturday night, neighbors
Dive-Bombers
100 nations! Congratulations to all
Ayodhyadesha, Dive-Bombers
Please volunteer to become officers. I will send a modest gift of ethereum to those chosen
Alright, I volunteer as a border control officer :)
I think offering money for in-game stuff is against the rules though
Maniaca, Ayodhyadesha
By order of the President, Antevile is appointed as Border Control Officer, and is granted the powers to prevent raids, eject hostile nations and ban hostile nations.
Maniaca, Antevile, New Hayistan
It's a bit of a misunderstanding, the Prime Minister wanted to gift bottles of ether (the liquid) but instead messaged ethereum, just a small error as he wanted to save energy by typing ethereum as 'ether'
Antevile, Dive-Bombers
Aaah, of course, of course. Silly me.
Greetings!
This is different. I was expecting to start in one of the Pacific feeder regions. This looks like fun!
Maniaca, Ayodhyadesha
Thank you anteville! Welcome pusillanimous poltroons! What's a poltroon
Dive-Bombers
Welcome to our region! Kindly endorse me if you can, and also from what I understand, you seem to be an alt considering your experience! (No issues we have no problems with alts)
Dive-Bombers
A coward (please don't recruit me for your armed forces!).
True. I am a puppet. My WA nation is serving as WA Delegate in a region that is currently under conversion to a Frontier. Perhaps I will be able to endorse you someday...
Ayodhyadesha
I see, would you like to be an officer Pusillanimous Poltroons?
Pusillanimous Poltroons
I am truly honored that you consider me worthy of being a regional officer. I will be happy to serve in any capacity needed, but be aware that I am also an officer in several other regions, so my visits here might become infrequent, and sometimes may be only just enough to keep this nation from ceasing to exist. Otherwise, I will be happy to contribute here.
Great Leader, a thousand apologies to you. The new feeder arrangement is still confusing at times. For full disclosure and honesty, I must reveal that Pusillanimous Poltroons and I are brother puppets, founded here through the randomness of the new feeder region process. If you desire, one of us will depart.
I am fine with both of you staying here, since it is one person, all the same.
Dive-Bombers, Pusillanimous Poltroons
By order of the President, Pusillanimous Poltroons is appointed as Management Officer, and is granted the powers to edit the World Factbook Entry, the Banner and the Flag, upon consultation with the President and Prime Minister.
Dive-Bombers, Pusillanimous Poltroons
Thank you Pusillanimous Poltroons and Anteville for volunteering. Let me know how I can support you. Thank you Ayodhyadesha for steering the ship!
Dive-Bombers, Pusillanimous Poltroons
We are truly honored to have this responsibility bestowed upon us. We thank you both sincerely, and we promise to serve Alcatraz region to the best of our ability.
Maniaca, Ayodhyadesha, Antevile
Let's go guys! Make it a great day!!
Dive-Bombers, Pusillanimous Poltroons
Congratulations to our least avoided nation, Ayodhyadesha!
Ayodhyadesha, Dive-Bombers, Pusillanimous Poltroons
Lol, thanks
By order of the President, Forgo is appointed as Political Officer, and is granted the powers and responsibility to conduct regular polls, at least twice a week, in this region.
Pusillanimous Poltroons
Thank you Forgo! A great choice for political officer
Ayodhyadesha

Antevile, Pusillanimous Poltroons

Which is a relief, because I've been very busy lately :(
Maniaca, Ayodhyadesha, Dive-Bombers

Awesome awesome new poll. I love pineapple on everything. Delicious and healthy snack, topping, you name it
I am a newer nation, but not new to NationStates. However, the Frontier regions are new to me, and I am still adjusting to not starting a nation in one of the Pacific Regions.
What do you love about the pacific regions that we could replicate here?
How to join another nation?
How to join another nation?
Joining another nation would be a big mistake. Those folks should probably join you here.
i had pineapple pizza for the first time
NEVER AGAIN
Maniaca, Dive-Bombers

Maniaca
Endorse ayodhyadesha

Screaming Eagles!
Bravo to our border control officer Anteville, who has kept us safe from raids [knock on wood!]
Antevile, Dive-Bombers, Teab
Just doin my job! :)
Maniaca, Dive-Bombers
I really like the special events scheduled for each day of the week in TWP, if only they were not so trigger-happy to ban peopleÂ
That's a fun idea
Well, I'm kind of a meme, ok huh?
what memes are hot right now?
I don't know, but I prefer memes by Warhammer 40,000.
The miniature-model based tabletop roleplaying game? Does it have memes associated with it

ٱلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ и добро пожаловать на мой канал, My legal birth name is Language Simp and I am a hyperpolyglot gigachad alpha male who is very attractive to every woman..
and man on the planet.
Maniaca, To Be Frank
Welcome, language simp. Honor to have you here. You are certainly attractive to me!
Current poll is an interesting study in selection bias!
RIP to all of our dead neighbors
I'm going to escape from Alcatraz! Hahahaahaha!
no need to be hasty, stay and make yourself at home
Hello! I heard a historic region was reviving itself, so I decided to poke my head in and see what's going on. (main nation is Applebania btw)
An honor to host you Cloud Age Symphony, welcome to Alcatraz. What's your background?
let's get ready for a great week
Nationstates or Real Life? In terms of NS, I'm a defender who has spent most of the last seven years CTE, but I'm back now.

I meant in NS but we encourage oversharing here so feel free to continue. I hope you were visited by much joy during your 7 year break
I have an idea. Feel free to dismiss this idea, but I think Alcatraz should start a security council.
Hello
Hello KRASUEA!! Welcome to Alcatraz.
I like the idea N-R-W. How many should serve and what would the responsibilities be?
Hm. The WA delegate ceased to exist. Might be an issue.
definitely some type of issue. But there must be some other nation here with endorsements?
hello
We have a delegate again. We're still in a precarious position in terms of security though, and don't have much of a formalised regional government, either. I think we should set up a Discord server - that might help us.
Hello fellas i do not see no discord server yeah?
Hello Coralas!
There is no discord server! Cloud Age Symphony please create one and Wandona please add it to the factbook entry when online
Alrighty
Hey Maniaca.. Do i post my millitary equipement here or?
Best place to post your military equipment would be in your factbook
https://www.nationstates.net/nation=Wandona/detail=factbook
or a thread on the "Forum" can work as well, especially if you want to buy and sell. That's all done in a "roleplay" type of way, which is like playing pretend. There isn't a game mechanic for it. It's kind of cooperative storytelling rather than an actual Age of Empires or Civilization style competitive match.
You are welcome to post it here as well, for the record, I'd be happy to see it
Making one rn don't want to go over-kill as i am just new so trying to find examples and stuff
That's a great plan. I bet you will find lots of good examples here:
https://forum.nationstates.net/viewforum.php?f=23&sid=1f1b023776a9ddba1eaaf0da41ea1aab
Alright thank you man
Hey maniaca I posted my fact book here check it out and tell me what do you think
https://www.nationstates.net/nation=wandona/detail=factbook/id=1914275
Btw can i see your millitary
https://discord.gg/fYb7W4F3
Whipped this up while on my phone on a train. Nothing fancy, but it'll probably do for now.
alright thanks
Will join the server when i am back one
back home*
I've got no description of my military! I should make one if I ever get time. My wife has left the country for a bit, not sure if that'll free me up a bit or do the opposite lol.
I am confident however that my military is the biggest in the world.
I registered on the discord
Love the factbook thus far Wandona, I have been in the back of many an FMTV in ten years of service....been nearly run over by a HEMTT or two as well
Lmfao thanks maniaca
Here is a link to the discord general room
