Region: Lands End
Yes, the entirety of the government has been working very hard with August on both of these things, I'm very excited for both.
I'd start with the FAQ, found here: https://www.nationstates.net/page=faq
If you have any more questions, feel free to ask here on the RMB or on the Discord, found here: https://discord.gg/EXya3sw

Hi friends! Just moved here! What are some good ways to move past answering issues from time to time. May the market forces be with y'all.
Isollis, Atkemri, Torranta
Hello Kakoa! Welcome to Land's End.
Hello, lads. There was something said in invitation abou discord channel,can you give an invite?
Greetings! Any advice on boosting one's economy?
Wait, did I loose my uranium when I came here? :(
Atkemri, Torranta
I'm no expert, but I believe the main way to improve your economy is to prioritize industry and corporate matters over government and civil choices. For example, If an issue gives you a choice between closing business to save an animal or causing a mass extinction for the benefit of industry, choose extinction. That is an extreme example, but I hope you get the gist. Your civil and political freedom will probably decrease.
Mercantana, Isollis
Could someone give me a link to the discord channel? And, can you only change you state of Capitalist Paradise, to something else, through issues, or are there other ways...
Can individual nations have alliances with other individual nations?
Post self-deleted by Capitalist Piggys.
Hello and welcome to all new nations! for those of you seeking the discord link you can find it here: https://discordapp.com/invite/EXya3sw
Short answer, no. Long answer: Yes, but it would only be rp wise and it would not actually show on the game unless you included it in a World Factbook Entry. (This may be incorrect in terms of rp as I am not sure myself, so if any one rps and know this is wrong please correct me.)
No, to my current knowledge there is no other way other than answering issues.
Issues! Issues! Issues!
Yes, it tasted very yummy.
I'm pretty sure if you answer all but the issues you don't want to answer after you go past 5 the older ones will be dismissed and nothin happens. As well as just flat out dismissing them. Other than that I'm not sure. (Again if I'm incorrect on this feel free to correct me.)
Sorry for the double post but I did a goof the first time I didn't catch whoops.
Mercantana, Bonnie Blue Republic, Isollis, Torranta
Capitalist-Okay, thanks!
Capitalist Piggys, Torranta
What does Capitalist-Okay mean?

correction Factbook, not WFE. WFE is for regions

Mercantana, Isollis
Do endorsements increase your influence?
Yes
Post self-deleted by Moonshiners.
But then what use is influence?
Torrant- the "-" is there, so i can direct my comment at another user. It would like me be saying, Capitalist@. That was directed to Capitalist Piggies, so i shortened it.
Makes sense. Is it even right for me to go around asking for endorsements? I don't want to be breaking any rules, even if it is just common decency.
Torranta-No.. the current WA delaget asked to be endorsed by me.
Isollis
I knew there would be at least one mistake in my info. Thank you!
It is meant to prevent new members of a region from seizing the delegate position and immediately ejecting & banning everyone else. You can gain influence every day that you are in a region. Every endorsement that you have also increases this amount.
Mercantana, Isollis
Nice to see the RMB alive.
Mercantana, Capitalist Piggys, Isollis, United Alliance Of Alexandria
Hey, all!
Got that right.Absolutely, you can ask for as many endorsements as you like. There are no endo restrictions on residents in this region, and anyone may seek the delegate position at any time. By the way, all our rules can be found in the "Corporate [LE]" dispatch. We are still working on them, so feel free to make suggestions or help out!For more information, I wrote a couple dispatches on these topics.About Influence: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=631590
About Endorsements: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=632658
This is all correct, though it is certainly possible to have a nation with a powerful economy and lots of freedoms--for example, this nation.Unike, Isollis
I like how the economy's at 98.9% Private Sector [nation=short]Mercantana[/nation] ;)
Mercantana
We just added a ton of new shareholders! Come check out the list, endorse your fellow shareholders, and/or shoot [nation=short]capitalist_piggys[/nation] an application to become one yourself. https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=704717
Capitalist Piggys, Isollis
Indeed, why do you have black market consumption contributing to the GDP? Did your government implement a price floor--scandalous!
Isollis, Kakoa
What do re numbers and sections mean on the shareholders list? Also is it ironic that Mercantana is an anarchy but founded this region and the government within?
What government? This is private property managed by its employees and investors!
Isollis, Torranta
It seems pretty organized to be the work of an anarchy.
I am pleased to announce that elections will be held in less than three short weeks elections and campaigning will begin! So I would suggest checking out: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=704711 to take a look at all the positions that will be elected during this week long election. And for all of you who would like to campaign, the weeks are flying by so if you have not finished and/or started your campaign, you best be getting on it! Not much more time left. Best of luck to everyone, may the best win.
Mercantana, Confederation Of Tesdai, The United Banking Associaton
It isn't an anarchy, it's a formal agreement between corporate officials. It's a company made of governments made of companies.
(Also, while everyone is talking about endorsement, we at Isollis would like to remind you that we would happily appreciate more of them.)
Kakoa
Same for me too! Apparently, I'm a "Sprat." What even is a sprat..
Torranta
Can you get issues that you had gotten before?
1. You are not eligible for all issues at once. Your nation's stats restrict this eligibility. For example, a dictatorship would not receive an issue about online voting, because they have no elections in the first place. If your nation's stats change, you may become eligible for different issues.
2. There are so-called issue "chains," which are series of connected issues that tell a story. At the moment, only two such chains exist, each containing a number of issues. Once you receive a chain, you will never receive that chain again.
Seconding this. I really hope I see some of our newer residents signing up to be shareholders and running for office! You get a big office instead of a cramped cubicle, more pens than [nation=short]capitalist_piggys[/nation] can possibly steal, and access to our top-secret discussion chamber. Start up a campaign today!Isollis, Torranta
Pirate-okay, thanks!
Cap can steal any amount of pens.

You see, that's where I have tricked you, there is [I]no[/I] limit to my pen stealing.
Unike, Confederation Of Tesdai, Isollis
Also feel free to tell us how we can improve Lands End on the RMB
Confederation Of Tesdai, Isollis, United Alliance Of Alexandria
Why don't many people vote in the polls?
Don't want to. Aren't actually here. Bunch of reasons.
What Tesdai said, plus time zones, it was only put up 5 hours ago so a lot probably aren't awake yet.
Capitalist Piggys
Torranta for CTO
Confederation Of Tesdai, United Alliance Of Alexandria
Told you so, August.
Confederation Of Tesdai, Ceylij, United Alliance Of Alexandria
Wait, how do you vote in the polls?
Is this RMB talkative?
United Alliance Of Alexandria
Can you give us other reasons to vote for you besides "Torranta for CTO?"
Hydruis, Confederation Of Tesdai, Isollis, United Alliance Of Alexandria
What he said, just telling people to vote for you as CTO isn't enough, what qualifies you for the position? What do you plan to do?
Nosotalio, Isollis, United Alliance Of Alexandria
As you all know, elections are just around the corner. I'm running for the CRO position (Chief Recruitment Officer). I believe that I'm very qualified for this position. Let me give you a few reasons why you should vote for me.
1. I've delivered 505 recruitment telegrams, out of those I've gotten 24 recruits or a 4.75% conversion rate.
2. I have ambitious goals. By the end of my term as CRO, I'm hoping that LE will have over 220 nations.
3. As CRO, I will also send out telegrams asking for volunteers in our recruitment efforts.
4. A new template is also a possibility. The current template in use has been very successful, but I want to develop a new template that could be as good or even better. There will be a month long testing period for the new template.
Capitalist Piggys, Isollis, The United Banking Associaton, Torranta
It was more of a declaration than an advertisement. It was late when I posted it and I wanted to sleep. My campaigning will most likely be primarily over telegram.
Confederation Of Tesdai, United Alliance Of Alexandria
No, I'll steal that too. Might be slightly harder, but if there's a will there's a way.
Hydruis, Isollis, United Alliance Of Alexandria
Can confirm that she will also steal that. The other day she stole my entire desk, and my most prized fake plant!
Capitalist Piggys, Isollis, United Alliance Of Alexandria
But that's where you are wrong as well, I [I]am[/I] the fake plant.
Unike, Confederation Of Tesdai, Isollis, United Alliance Of Alexandria
4.75%. Wow, that's insanely high. Over twice as high as the highest I've ever seen and 4-5 times higher than usual rates.
Isollis, The United Banking Associaton, United Alliance Of Alexandria
Definitely, based on these stats, one can see that Alexandria has given lots of time to helping Lands End.
Confederation Of Tesdai, Capitalist Piggys, Isollis, United Alliance Of Alexandria
Agrred. Not only has he given lots of time to the region, he's done very well and been extremely efficient.
Capitalist Piggys, Isollis, Atkemri, The United Banking Associaton, United Alliance Of Alexandria
I support this.
Time is relative, you can only send TGs so fast, but 500 TGs at one time might just be a couple hours while the next week they might only make 500 nations the whole week. The amount of TGs sent should not be a measurement of how much time you have spent recruiting. It isn't consistent nor really representative. For instance, I have sent thousands of TGs and I do it manually. I have spent an hour a day for weeks on end recruiting. Some days, I have sat there for that hour and sent two TGs because that's how many nations were created. Other times, so many nations are created so quickly that I hit the TG spam limit.
Hydruis, The United Banking Associaton, United Alliance Of Alexandria
Conspiracy theory: What if I secretly created all these nations, so I could play with myself. (Don't take that out of context.) man, that'd be really sad...
Mercantana, Confederation Of Tesdai, United Alliance Of Alexandria, Middle Veration
I just took it out of context.
Hydruis, Confederation Of Tesdai, United Alliance Of Alexandria, Torranta
Hydruis, Unike, Confederation Of Tesdai, Atkemri, The United Banking Associaton, United Alliance Of Alexandria, Torranta

Well if that's what gets you off who are we to judge
Mercantana, Hydruis, Confederation Of Tesdai, Capitalist Piggys, United Alliance Of Alexandria
Lol. i kinda expected that. :P
Confederation Of Tesdai, United Alliance Of Alexandria
I took it out of context as well.
United Alliance Of Alexandria
Lesson learned, if you tell people to not take something out of context, they'll take it out of context. Actually they'll take it out of context either way it goes.

August no, bad.

that's nice
Atkemri, United Alliance Of Alexandria
So what can I do for fun on here?
Atkemri
This whole thing is sort of a play pretend. You make decisions for your country (or for your region if you are a political figure) and can contribute to it, your region, or even the world. There are endless possibilities. If that isn't cool to you, I don't know what to tell you. My answer isn't exactly 100%, so another person's answer might help.
Confederation Of Tesdai, Isollis, The United Banking Associaton, United Alliance Of Alexandria
There is loads of things. You can do the obvious, such as answer issues and do the whole "Challenge" game which is an old April Fools thing. There's also RP in some places, AA has a military in the JTF, you could join that for the whole R/D thing. LE is having elections soon, you could run in those. There's a ton of things, I probably just scratched the surface.
Isollis, United Alliance Of Alexandria
Ok cool thank you
I would like to announce that elections for the Board of Directors (excluding WA Delegate and Founder) are coming up very soon.
Elections will start in just over 2 weeks on August 1, 2017.
Make sure to announce if you plan on running and make sure to do some campaigning.
For more information on the government positions, make sure to check out the pinned dispatch. (also here: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=704711)
United Alliance Of Alexandria
It has been great watching the campaigns in this beautiful region. I have recently been talking with Torranta, which has led me to believe, that we need him as CTO. Torrantas ideas have been extremely well thought, and we need someone that can help us move forward, in our foreign affairs. This is why, as Vice President for Accounting, I will be publicly endorsing Torranta, not only for CTO, but for anything he decides to do.
Unike, Bonnie Blue Republic, United Alliance Of Alexandria, Torranta
Both Torranta and I, hope that his plans will be released soon. I am sure that all of you will be more than happy, to have a candidate willing to work with everyone in the region, whether employee, shareholder or with the board of directors.
United Alliance Of Alexandria, Torranta
This is a reminder that CEO is not up yet. CEO will be coming up within about 3-4 months.
Hydruis, Unike, The United Banking Associaton, United Alliance Of Alexandria
Can anyone make a list of who's running for what?
United Alliance Of Alexandria
Same
It's a quote you must believe it no fake news
Please don't double post.
Unike, Isollis
In regards to this, I've been keeping personal notes, but with so much desire for it, I would like to request anyone that is running please telegram me and tell me.
The current list that I have is:
CRO
CTO
Isollis, Christiana Libertad Civitatibus, The United Banking Associaton, United Alliance Of Alexandria, Nelgum, Torranta
Before asking for a list, I scanned the rmb to see if maybe I just missed all the running declarations. Isollis said he MIGHT be running for COO. I don't know if this helps.
United Alliance Of Alexandria
Hello Land's End
I'm so pleased to announce to everyone that today is the beginning of the AA recruiting competition. By now you should have received a telegram and/or seen an RMB post about recruiting. However if you have not, here are the rules: your prior telegrams will not be counted. Please make a new template and use that template to recruit from July 17th to July 31st and on the 31st send your end numbers. (delivered and blocked by category) You also must use the standard recruitment telegram you received from your delegate. Results from this competition will be posted August 2nd at 2pm EDT, so please have your ending numbers in by August 1st. For any questions about this competition will free to send me a telegram or a dm on discord, I will be happy to answer it.
Best of luck to everyone.
Isollis
United Alliance Of Alexandria
Thanks for the update.
Hello Lands End!
I would like to inform you all that I am stepping down as CEO. I have had a great time here with you all, and I will still be around here answering issues, but CEO is just a little too much for someone like me to handle.
And best of luck to everyone who's running in the upcoming elections(Even though you are all running unopposed, which is boring).
Nosotalio, Atkemri, Ceylij, United Alliance Of Alexandria
Well, seems we are all jumping into the same boat here, doesn't it?
Best of luck to you, Arudis.
Hydruis, United Alliance Of Alexandria
I started a chain of events here, didn't I?

Why haven't you been on discord lately?
