History

I just drew Mercantana. Ultra rare. Pretty sweet. Also have Aecria, Allied States of Gondor, KCiD, Etat Unitaire Francais, Imano, Perlaxia and the Great Nation of Allah. If anyone happens to have me, I'd be most eager to acquire myself.

wouldn't it make sense for a nation to start off with themselves?

Just pulled my first epic, I wish they would hold this longer then just a week

Hello guys, I'm new here

Saint Gloria, Buryasia, Okla-Texas, The Cincinnatus Republic, Legoa

I just got the Conch Kingdom card and am about to seal a deal on the Mercantana card to add to my August collection. I hate that anyone can offer to buy a card for .01 and it completely depletes the card's value. My current deck value is 23.76.

Hi!

can someone explain why we are all trading cards?

Mythel wrote:can someone explain why we are all trading cards?

For fun! Every year there's an April Fool's Event here. Usually its a nuclear war (Augustin Alliance won both) or zombies or something, but this time its trading cards.

Someone said yesterday that it might be a way to find out which puppets are connected to who. If you just bought a legendary card for 0.01, we know who is your puppet (or at least can make a pretty good guess.)

Why would they need to know who our puppets are? They only care about them if you have 2 WA nations (bad idea). Also, I have been sold many cards for only 0.01 without them being my puppets.

It was either in the conch kingdom mssg brd or in the forums where someone made this speculation. IDK

I guess they might want to know exactly how popular their site really is.

You want to get technical, Conch Kingdom won the first... albeit because they were the first AA nation to get a faction up, and we bandwagoned then.

The second was right after the dissolution of the AA, so we didn't exist as an entity to win it...

Although the region called Augustin Alliance was created expressly for that purpose.

Its the spirit of it that counts. The fact is that the AA nations were present both times, and we worked together both times.

Torranta wrote:Its the spirit of it that counts. The fact is that the AA nations were present both times, and we worked together both times.

Very true.

The second was kinda the AA's last hurrah.

I haven't been on quite that long. I remember a zombie attack around Halloween or Day of the Dead last year. And I guess I do remember the AA group winning. I was in West Pacific at the time. Speaking of winning, do you think they will award an Easter Egg or anything related to these cards and if so what do you think the criteria might be? Like if you have a deck worth X dollars you win something? Or if you have X legendary cards? I'm just asking y'all to take a guess.

if anyone has me, please let me know.

Just curious, I might have missed the reason why, why is the embassy in Kaisertum Osterreich being withdrawn?

Fanter Kesh wrote:Just curious, I might have missed the reason why, why is the embassy in Kaisertum Osterreich being withdrawn?

The embassy has been withdrawn with Kaisertaum Osterreich because they no longer meet the required standards for our embassy.

I will refer you to Okla-Texas who is CTO for further info.

I now have 4 of the 5 Augustin Alliance Founders.

I appreciate that Lands End made a swift response to the embassy situation.

Sorry about that. We had some misunderstood advise that was taken as concrete rules. The executive administration of Lands End dealt with it as quickly as possible. We hope this hasn't damaged our relationship with our fellow AA region.

Most likely. Now I got dirt on you though. Infinite blackmail material right here. Next time you try to get in front of me at the buffet, blackmail! Next time you want to use my favorite pool noodle, blackmail! Next time you take the last slice of cheese pizza and there's only sausage left, blackmail!

Actually, blackmail's boring.

*pulls out a megaphone*

"cough, cough. Hey NationStates, Clarkentrent double-posted!"

In all seriousness, no big deal. Happens to everyone. Even the CEO. Good thing you did it before my bylaw passed. I am going to consider everyone's slates clean after it passes.

I'm surprised I caught it so fast, though.

That's where you're wrong. I swim IN the soup. Takes chicken noodle soup to a new level.

And besides, no one was ever harmed by Chlorine, right?

That's fine. For once I didn't catch it before you deleted it. The deleted post from before had an illusion of separating your posts. Also, I'm kind of sad that you deleted your posts. I like scrolling through the rmb and seeing all the times my name shows up for double-posting suppression. My speed is an art. It takes diligent practice and a will to survive.

I think the algorithm for rarity of cards has a bit of randomness to it.

Plus, Bonnie might be un-happy about that.

Archen Federation wrote:I kinda just mean in general ya know? I'm 5 years old on here and there's smaller younger nation's are rare xP

I think it's based off stats most of the time. I'm only rare because I'm a Delegate. And, the stats typical of your nation type usually aren't overwhelmingly high, so I'd probably say that it reasonable for you to be uncommon.
