Region: Lands End
Send cure missiles and Ill send some in return
imma join the zombies
Le bruh
I guess I could post that question at discord, but how do I use Superweapons, such as extermination groups, cure missiles, etc.?
I have chosen elimination - as a country which has always ranked highly in its defence forces, I feel its my best option.
Good luck everyone! :)

I'm late to the party.
The Federation Of Spokane, Bu Ah
Aaaaaa oh no. I was asleep and now most of my people are zombies
Same. I'm going to start researching the cure, if someone bombards me with some cure missiles I'll try to return the favour.
Edit: Oh I was wondering why I was embracing zombies when I woke up. Max Barry himself stopped my cure research.
Edit2: Oh no, it was actually due to someone hitting me with 2 hordes. Well I'm also returning that favour, I'll tell you that much.
Biggonian Megaist Empire
We are currently training extermination squads, putting our 'oversized' military to good use. Call if you need it.
Meropis bombarded me with the cure, so I'm fine now, trying to return that favour. I do have level 4 elimination squads though, so tell me if you want some dead zombies.
Edit: I saw Bu Ah hit my friend Biggonian here with a horde and I decided to strike back on their behalf. I may or may not have yeeted their entire population with a single hit. Sorry lol, didn't realize you only had 4 million. Oops.
South-Central Rhodesia, Bu Ah
Sorry, i accidentally cured some of your zombie citizens :D
Can someone send some cure missiles please, my nation was attacked while I was sleeping
Saint Sharis
Alright, got it.
Eostiana
Thanks for the cure missiles Rasumplia and Saint Sharis, I appreciate it.
Rasumplia, Saint Sharis
I guess most of members here ignore the event, or am i wrong?
I think it's like 5 am in the US now, maybe we'll get more activity in a few hours.
Oh, right, that is quite probable.
Please could you launch cure missiles towards my nation. We request assistance
Okay, but you are relatively safe. I will spend my 3 minutes by helping you, then cure me for 3 minutes or so, ok? Thanks
Biggonian Megaist Empire
Thank you
Healed a bit of you, but i have to be offline now, so see ya later. Please dont let my nation die.

Cure Missiles por favor
Yo could ya'll just like not
Stop sending hoards to me
Don't double, and specially don't triple post. It's the RMB rules here.
I sent some missiles your way. I could use some cure myself though.
The Federation Of Spokane, Eostiana
Hit me up with those cure missiles too
Biggonian Megaist Empire
Yup. I'm suffering hard
Jumping Jesus on a Pogo stick! How'd it get so bad?
Brains... BRAINS!
Edit: after regaining conscious control of the nation, the remaining population has been enlisted to take out the zombies.
South-Central Rhodesia
I think we accidently hit you with a few Hordes, Deims Kir
The Federation Of Spokane
I don't know about Deims but you sure sent some my way. Right after I hit you with the cure, too, I feel betrayed.
I'm in need cure missiles bad, I'm about to go full zombie, and my population is too low to properly help others.
Can someone cure me

In previous editions I was complaining that Z-Day event is only for cloners, and always adjusted for the same time zones year after year.
So this time they made some adjustments - by several times resetting specific regions' and/or nations' choices.
Those that were AFK at inopportune moments, were as good as kicked out of the event.
My marks for Z-Day9 : F-.
North American Environmental Alliance, Saint Sharis
This is my first Z-Day and I have to say I'm disappointed by the event.
You pretty much have to stay the entire day looking at NS, because if a zombie nation so much as looks at you the wrong way while you're afk you're screwed. But even if you do that you can't expect everyone else to do it as well, and you have no means of self-defense so unless the region is incredibly active there's no point.
There's also the fact that the cure effectiveness is tied more closely to your population numbers than it is to the actual level of the missile, so as time passes, nations are most likely gonna get less effective at fighting back, which makes them lose motivation to keep fighting, making it even harder to keep your numbers up, making you less effective, etc. I suppose it's realistic as how a zombie takeover might actually happen, but it doesn't make for a very fun event.
The Democracy Of Red Star
Can zombies travel by airplanes?
If not, then every nation, regardless how small, should have ability to defend their own borders, even if majority of region is willingly embracing zombies.
Another thing I don't like in mechanics of this event - regions that go for top rankings, they have to evict minority nations, thus resetting their Residency.
Oh, I meant the slow death as you slowly lose hope and ultimately give up is realistic, not the lack of self-defense.
But yeah, I think the event would be a lot better if the international gameplay was only half of the equation and not the full thing. Maybe you could even opt to completely close your borders, making it a lot harder (but not impossible) for zombie nations to infect you but also making it so other nations can't help you. Depending on how it's done a feature like that could also serve as AFK-mode.
Eostiana
Based on my accumulated event log for the region:
21 out of 151 region nations made participation (less than 15%);
2040 actions were made in total (about 100 per participant on average);
8 nations cured at least once (1062 cure actions affected 84294 million);
12 nations killed at least once (565 kill actions affected 13859 million);
16 nations ravaged at least once (413 ravage actions affected 6178 million).
South-Central Rhodesia, Lateness People, The Supreme Ancapistan, Bu Ah
Don't know. We, here at the NAEA, were having fun last night destroying the remaining of most nations. Majority of the remaining top 20 were crushed by us. (We'd stick around and destroy more and eventually get to finishing off the Democracy of the Red, but every attack takes 1M-4M survivors, and to spend our time attacking you guys with 100M+ survivors is too time consuming).
In all seriousness, this could've been more fun. Been around for a few of the events at various moments at random years and this one got annoying outside of destroying other nations. Being AFK is a death sentence and realistically, some of our nations would definitely make it (then again, the Issues and their consequences for each answer is unrealistic most times so screw realism, I suppose).

Hello, everyone. I'm Saint Sharis. I just wanted to inform you all that I've decided to change my nation from a religious nightmare to a corporate nightmare. This means if you have any inquiries about the regional map you may now direct them to The Cerberus Conglomerate.
Thank you for your attention.

Hello, after sifting through all of these telegrams, I narrowed it down to my top 3 and ended up choosing this one. 2 things I liked about this region is the unique shareholder government system and the map roleplay (I enjoy the political, war, and demographics/statistics part).

Falling into anarchy and replacing your police force with roving biker gangs also has a dramatic effect on that particular stat.

I think I have an issue...my citizens are over taxes. No one has rioted and because high taxes don't start civil wars we haven't had a civil war yet. I'm worried we might have underground operations, and the problem with our taxes is that everything is essential, without one things we lose another, I don't know what my next move should be.
Then tax them so much that they won't have any money to spend on ,,underground operations". Also, if do people feel need for underground operations, send them to uranium mines. That way there will be nobody left to riot. Or maybe just ignore taxation since you don't pay any taxes?
Yes... yes... let the paranoia blind you- until it is too late

Helllllooooo

Hello all. Just joined, very happy to be a part of Lands End and all it stands for.
Also, I see the disclaimer about puppet storage. Do you have a region for puppets or can I bring one in if my nation is also here? I was a member with a previous nation several years ago and want to honor the customs.
Antarctican Immagrants, Bu Ah
Welcome to lands end I hope you enjoy your stay here
Antarctican Immagrants
Alright, currently my main priority is top make myself the least nude nation in the entire region!
Antarctican Immagrants, Bu Ah
Hey guys, what should I do? Issues take like 4 hours. Is it possible to actually go to war or is it all make believe?
I had a war a while back, but it was with a non-player nation.
Yeah, but is it real? Do we actually get to make military and destroy the others?
I don't know.
You cant. There are events, in which you can fight against others. You cant fight and destroy someone's nation. About inter-regional wars: I don't know if are there any.
Eanor, Bu Ah
I want to stand as the shining example of this region, my economy is booming, my citizens are happy, and we have fully protected our citizens democracy. I might take the helm and run in next election, I'm just wondering, how should I go about running?

Hey everybody, Im not dead after all!
I know Ive been relatively absent the past few weeks/months, and I apologize for that. However, I have something important to bring up. My tenure as COO of Lands End will end on January 2nd, 2021 (We will be on vacation for the holidays, so normally it would have ended Dec. 31st). Of course, I would just run for re-election again, but that wont be happening.
It is with a deep and sorrow heart that I am announcing my retirement from both Lands End and NationStates as a whole. Ive been here since 2017, and Ive done a lot here. Ive also had a short stint in Ridgefield. Unfortunately though, Ive lost the time I once had to be on NationStates, as Ive taken more time to work on my physical health and mental health (Dont fret, I'm okay!). I have to start looking towards my future, and preparing for such. Unfortunately, I dont see NS in my future any longer.
So, effective on January 2nd, 2021, I will be retiring. I will be here to announce the successor that I would want to fill my place, and then allow the Shareholders to vote as they see fit.
Thank you all for the wonderful memories weve created over the past 3 years together, and thank you August for working your wonderful magic and creating this place I call home. Dont worry, Ill still be on discord to annoy everybody and talk about politics.
Cheers,
New Slovakastan, COO

Dear New Slovakastan,
May I say, as a nation and friend that I myself have grown up knowing well over the years, you will be missed. You and Peacockastan were the first two nations I spoke with when I joined in 2018 & thank you for helping to craft Lands End into the brilliant home it is now.
Take care, stay safe & from all of us here, we wish you well for your next chapter :)
PS come back to annoy us again sometime ;) x

Welcome Back
You were arguably one of the best COOS Lands End has ever had, Slovak and it was a genuine pleasure to see your rise from CLO to COO during my time. You will be missed dearly my friend, and cheers to retirement! Out of all of the COOs Ive had the pleasure of working with, you have been a great one and I will miss seeing you around!
Oi! What am I? Chopped liver? :P
Also unrelated but late happy 2 year anniversary to me!
Im old-

When I have some industry branch in negative values, does that mean I (my nation) imports goods of the branch?
Post self-deleted by Antarctican Immagrants.
But that wouldnt raising imports (while not rising export) raise the taxes? I havent studied economics, it is just a question, perhaps dumb one.
hi

Hi! Nice flag. Is it like Austria Hungary except mexico and USA?

Howdy, folks. Got something to say as your WA delegate.
I don't tend to talk much about WA voting. Don't much care for the GA but the Security Council, those commendations and condemnations, those mean something in the Gameplay world.
And as it happens, Twobagger is good people. So I'd appreciate if you could help him pick up that commendation.
Thanks much.
