Every Official has a different reaction to this type of double posting, the “post something and then quote somebody in a different post” kind. Some Officials are lenient on this, others not so much. Don’t take it personally, our rules on double posting are purely to keep RMB life clutter-free.

How do you get rich with cards?

I just kept all of the cards that are not common. After a while you just get dozens of Epic cards.

Talllad wrote:How do you get rich with cards?

Outside of the normal chance to pull decks of cards from answering issues there are two two major options available to you if you're interested in expediting your card collecting. The first is to get involved with the rest of the card collecting community in the forums. There's a whole community built around trading cards among members, special giveaways, lotteries, etc.. From what I've seen of them, they seem fairly eager to find new people who want to get involved, going so far as to recruit via telegram every so often. Head here: https://forum.nationstates.net/viewforum.php?f=42 and look around if any of that sound interesting to you.

The second option, if you're a social recluse like me, is to set up your own collection of puppet nations and farm cards on your own time, gifting the good ones to your primary nation when you get them. General consensus when I started doing this seemed to be that you need at least 10 puppets minimum if you want to get anywhere in any reasonable amount of time. Full disclosure, this is really tedious and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless they also happen to be a crazy person with a lot of free time on their hands and no worries about contracting a repetitive stress injury from all the monotonous clicking involved.

Double posting is when you have two RMB messages, and there isn’t a different RMB post from another nation separating the two. The board feels it’s more efficient to just edit your first post.

The Earth is flat because it is impossible to dig a hole from America to China. This is because if the Earth is the shape of a blue ray dvd on the back of a komodo dragon colliding with the ancient device called a cassette tape, is is impossible by the laws of physics to dig a hole deeper than 20 kilometers.

The sun and moon are simply the white spinning parts of the cassette tape with are seen at different times of day due to the fact that the cassette tape is spinning on a drill. The sky consists of the little hole in the dvd shape of the Earth which is why if we fly into the hole in the dvd we enter space, from there we can fly either into the sun or the moon. I myself have been to the center of the sun and back and survived completely fine.

The planets and stars are actually the individual paint particles written on the cassette tape as part of the title. This is why all space rover eventually lose their battery power, because they crash onto the Earth's surface. This is why meteor showers occur. Every so often the United States calls back it's space rovers that have been sent out to nuke every other alien space rovers so we can stay the only life forms in the galaxy that can go to space. Of course since planets don't exist the aliens actually come from the sun which is why we can see solar flares try to take down our defenses on Earth.

Of course the only way we can prove the world is a simulation is by trying to glitch the computer that runs it. This is why I can now walk through walls, randomly fly up 1000000000000000000000000 meters into the air, fall through solid floors, and freeze up and then move so freakishly fast that I am the senate.

For more info on why the Earth is flat I suggest watching this video:

Some who may be viewing my sprawling nation may be wondering why I always change my classification every so often. The case is that after a government schism a few website years ago my Senate decided that who ever is the leading political party gets to change our classification. Sorry to whom may be watching us up above.

Everyone needs to vote in the newest world assembly vote, please we really need support for it.

Nadal Mobianordia wrote:Come on my dude. We all know the world can't be flat because time operates within a cube made up of four simultaneously occurring days and a two dimensional surface just doesn't allow for that.

/timecube

Technically the universe is made of 4 dimensions. These are the x y and z axis and time as the fourth dimension. (This is actual science)

(This is my joke that will drive everyone to insanity.)

Therefore the 2 dimensions of the flat Earth cause one day on the single side of the Earth since it is like a dvd. The second thing that happens is that since the sun is spinning while playing Africa on the cassette tape, the sound waves effect the sun's plasma in such a way that the light is able to create another day on the opposite side of the dvd.

The third day is the one we experience because we have a third and fourth dimension. This means that the third day consists of the the light we get from the sun that doesn't hit the Earth.

The fourth day consists of the fourth dimension, time. Time is in every single day, yes, however without time days would never move by. Time is simply a change. Therefore to go from day to night we need time. However time also goes on and therefore is it's own 24 hour day cycle.

Also I never said the Earth is 2 dimensional. Nothing can be two dimensional. If I draw a square on my four dimensional piece of paper I get a three dimensional shape. The Earth is shaped like a dvd colliding with a spinning cassette tape on a drill on the back of a komodo dragon. Therefore the Earth is not 2 dimensional but rather four dimensional.

There is a debate on if the Earth is actually just a shadow of a four dimensional object, if so this would make it three dimensional. This us most likely not the case as we are four dimensional creatures who can only live in an atmosphere made of 99.999999% carbon dioxide. This is why we die of old age, because we don't have enough carbon dioxide. As for global warming, this is why we need it. We all know no one wants to live in Greenland because it's too cold however Greenland has the halibut of sustenance under all the ice which can make anyone who licks the fish's eyeball live for ten thousand years. This is why artificial intelligence must be allowed to continue to exist, so that we may make carbon emissions as inefficient as possible......

If anyone actually believes this I'm going to cry myself to sleep.

Since my girlfriend's nation went extinct, I felt a little bad, so I let her use mine. Already, my political freedom went from superb to excellent.

I'll let you guys decide if this was a good thing or a bad thing.

But for me I think this is a good thing, as my nation practices true democracy and if there's anything about such political ideology, is that you'd always end up with a parliament that is full of opposing political ideas, and having my girlfriend interfering with my country is a good simulation for that.

P.s. She is mostly a conservative and I'm a neoliberal, so in terms of politics we're not that far off. Well, I am still expecting for my civil rights to drastically fall down. But I'd fix it as soon as a new issue arrives.

Technically since the Earth is made of land and water and another word for water is ice there is only one country that actually exists on the Earth. Iceland. Therefore no matter what shape the Earth is it is necessary that any land mass on the Earth's surface is shaped like Iceland.

This is my mind after choosing an issue on how my nation will get it's electricity:

Japan using nuclear power. Isn't that just lovely. Now we can have efficient energy for all my citizens. I'm sure nothing bad happened in Japan with nuclear science or in the Soviet Union with Nuclear power plants......there's no reason my citizens would be scared...right?

Ok so the first thing you do is click on file. Then you click save as and put it in a document. From there you need to click save to save the ms painting. From there look down at your key board and press and hold alt. While holding down the alt button press the F4 button with your other hand.

Once you are done this you will receive a message saying to pay $1000.00 to your Nigerian uncle who will give you his mansion.

The Supreme Ancapistan / Lateness People, both are located at the top end of the spectrum for economic and political freedom, the difference between them comes down to personal freedom/civil rights. This graph does a better job of explaining what I mean: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Updated_NS_Graph.png
