Region: Lands End
Hey guys, I'm new here. Is there anything important I should know?
Do you have patience?
Welcome to Lands End! I'd just join in the conversations here and definitely join the discord where we have lively banter with the nations of all the AA regions. Have fun and ask questions when you have them.

Awesome, Thanks! I look forward to my stay here!

Alright, this message is adressed to you because of multiple RMB posts promoting your region
Becuase of the aforementioned actions the Lands End company hereby asks you to cease and desist your region promotion.
Continuing to do so will result in punishments ranging from RMB ban to ejection.
Have a nice day
*also that is not the offical AA puppets storage region, Welnat is the offcial puppets storage and our military headquaters.
Buryasia
I apologize, and I also offer to delete the post
morning everyone
South-Central Rhodesia
A very good morning! :) Hows everyones day shaping up?
New here should I know anything
Buryasia
Ok
Just be sure to ask any questions you might have. You are welcome here ... and you're welcome to join the conversations on the discord.
I have a couple of questions:
What are the Cards for?
What does the World Assembly do? Does it affect me? Should I pay much attention to it?
What are the responsibilities of the WA Delegate, Chief Operation Officer, Chief Executive Officer, etc... What do you guys do?
How does Influence work? What does it affect?
(Sorry if these are really dumb questions with painfully obvious answers)
just collecting and selling to upgrade storage.
if you are in you vote on topics and they will put you into compliance with the u.n. rules
Wa -i don't know. rest are for officer-appointing people, border control-kicking you out, embassies-connection regions, communication-keeping region up to date, polls-that's the fun stuff
don't know yet but i am sure its probably a how influential are you so people know.
I'm glad to have you in the region and don't worry, those aren't dumb questions at all!
Cards don't serve a purpose really, they don't affect your nation in any way. Most people just collect them as a hobby. (Some people take this hobby a little too far and care a bit too much about the cards... lol)
The World Assembly is an organization that proposes and passes resolutions that technically affect your nation's stats, but you will never notice the difference. Through the WA, you can also endorse your fellow region-mates and increase influence. Endorsements are also how a WA delegate is appointed. WA membership is required for military gameplay and, in this region, government participation.
You can see how our government works here: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1094039
Our founder, August, has written a lot of helpful references. This is the best explanation of influence I know of: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=968137
Leanor
Fun fact: one of the level's of national influence in NS is "truckler," which apparently means "one who behaves obsequiously."
Well, now that I've kept my nation active for a few more weeks, I'm going to dive back into preparing for final exams.
Buryasia
Good luck!

oh nice
Buryasia
Awesome! Thank you so much!
Buryasia, Peacockastan
so i just found out what the ucr was
Define "a little too far." But if you get it wrong, you owe me cards.
The second half of this statement defines "a little too far." Lol
Dude, I bought like 5 or 6 cards while you were coming up with that.
Peacockastan, Leanor
so how is everyone doing?
Ok
ok? is something wrong?
It's best if that is not brought up on-site
agreed
i haven't watched any of those movies but none can beat robin hood.
i am doing good how about U?
Eh. Its fine.
Just took a hard hit to the head during basketball practice, so theres a chance I may be heading to urgent care.
I hope you get better.
Buryasia, The Federation Of Spokane
Im fine now, theyre just watching me to make sure its not a concussion.
Buryasia, Vistryara

If you want to just joke, please join the discord.

Well, I'm glad to have joined this strong region.
Buryasia, Peacockastan, Vistryara
We're glad to have you here!
Buryasia
I sold one card for $100 today. Making me wish it was real money (I'd donate half to August)
Peacockastan, Vistryara
*raises eyebrow*
I can't really do that much with $50 right now. But August has been asking for help with the discord. So if I somehow won $100 on NS, I'd like to think I'd turn back around and give half to August.
Now, if I won $1000, I'd probably keep all of it :D
Saint Gloria
*raises another eyebrow*
If you don't believe me, lets design a test. I'll link to my pay pal, you put money in it, and then we'll see what happens.
I dont have paypal. I was just messing with you Bury.
I kinda think the discord guideline is a tad bit unfair though.
Edit: Bury, does that heart give your consent to let me stage a rebellion? ;)
Buryasia
I totally understand why you feel that way, or at least I would probably feel similar. Are you not able to operate discord on your device? If that's the case, that sux. But you know, August's hard work on that doesn't really have anything to do with the LE discord guideline - he's just spending his personal time keeping a place active for everyone to chat.
Just endorsed about everyone one in the region...whew. Didn't think it would take 15 minutes.
Peacockastan
Yeah, Im not able to operate it on my device.
Hey check out my new banner you guys might like it ;) some one in Canada gave me the idea before I left...
holy crap..
The Furry Island
Glade you liked it XD
If you go to the discord server, there is a command that will send you a file that includes the nation link to every nation you haven't endorsed yet. It takes like 2 minutes to do it instead of 15.
Saint Gloria, South-Central Rhodesia, Vistryara
It is a day to rejoice
Saint Gloria, Buryasia, Peacockastan, South-Central Rhodesia, Vistryara, The Furry Island, Leanor
Oh....Well....At least I know that now.
Well nobody wants CPO. That is kind of sad considering there was another candidate during the election......... Well, in other news, there are a lot of appointed positions that can be filled. Look on the government page and contact our COO Peacockastan for any questions on the positions or myself about the ambassador position
Peacockastan
Do you think we would need to break the discord bylaw?
Why do you do this?
Peacockastan
Because I can XD
Absolutely not. All positions require Discord membership for a reason; the reason being that all of the government conversations and regional planning takes place in the discord server. All of the AA government is managed through discord as well. CPO is different from all of the other positions though, without being in the discord then you will not be able to take advantage of the bot's many systems that seriously ease the process of recruitment and integration. That is why discord membership for CPO is nonnegotiable.
Yawehs Chosen Peoples
Aye.
My leader is now "la majstro" (the master)
what language?
My favorite part of the game is when you actively try to boost your stats but you end up lowering it instead. I tried giving some political freedoms and civil rights in a few issues, but I somehow ended up allowing slavery and they both dropped.
I wouldn't look too much into it.
Hello. I am definitely not a puppet nation.
Yeah. Sometimes Ive tried to increase my employment by choosing the option that stated that it would increase my employment and it didnt change
Vistryara
HOWDY
I GOT YOUR RECRUITMENT TELEGRAM
Leanor
What exactly is that supposed to mean?
Did you use the sarcastic recruitment TG Peacock?
I Got to ask, is this a user from the land of Dearest leader? (Psychotic Dictatorhip)
welcome to lands end!
The Democracy Of Red Star
Welcome hope you dont mind furries
Buryasia, Free Southern Republics
The language is our national language, Esperanto.
Buryasia
oh nice. do you have a translator or something?
Post self-deleted by The Democracy Of Red Star.
Question:
Is discord nonnegotiable for all board positions?
Peacock literally just told you no
Peacockastan
Yes, it is nonnegotiable for all, and especially for CPO.
to clarify above, on discord we use a bot to help us recruit. We ask all residents try and get on discord and make use of this bot when they can. If you have any questions feel free to telegram or DM me on discord.
Peacockastan
I was just clarifying.
oh hey hickerbilly stopped existing
I don't know who that is, but, cool name. Well, it was a cool name.
The Democracy Of Red Star, Legoa, Yawehs Chosen Peoples, Free Southern Republics, The Furry Island
Rip who ever they were
Truly a sad sight. I'm pretty sure I remember sending that guy the recruitment telegram too.

I would like to introduce the newest Senior Management member...... Introducing Los Cayos your newest Ambassador
congratulations. Everyone should apply for Senior management positions. They are great ways to gain experience and have more fun!
Buryasia, Peacockastan, Los Cayos
Congrats on your position [nation=noflag]Los Cayos[/nation]!
I would also like to announce that I will now be accepting applications for Vice President for Public Relations. For those of you who don't know, the VP-PR makes our regional newspaper, so I would like to get that position filled and start making some new newspapers. Some of you guys who have been around a while may remember that I was once VP-PR and I can tell you from experience that this is a very fun position and you will love every second of it.
Now there is one catch to this amazing position, you will be required to have a pretty good understanding of how to use BBCode. I realize that most of you may not have a good understanding or comprehension of BBCode, but it is really easy to learn and I would love to answer any questions that people have about it. Some good ways to learn would be to look at other people's dispatches and click the "Raw" button at the bottom, that button will show all of the code in the dispatch. Another way would be to look at a guide for all of the codes and how to use them. Here is a good dispatch for learning how to make good dispatches using the codes: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=330837
The following is the application for VP-PR and I hope that you all send in your applications as soon as possible, thank you!!
[spoiler=Click to show application]Are you a Shareholder:
Are you familiar with BBcode:

Are you on the discord:[/spoiler]
