Oh no.
The cult of :3 is multiplying :O

The puzzle is called Kakuro and you can find more tips even solvers online. I find it possible to solve it faster by oneself than enter all the factors to a online solver. Have a page open with all possible sums can speed it up a lot too.

For the Horizontal Admin Tower, are there any materials that are most-needed right now? Elucubria has
7: logistics, food, textiles
6: knowledge, chemicals, wood
4: metal
1: stone
I'm not awful at the puzzles but I'd prefer not to do stone lol
I've been doing metal since it was on the board a while back but I'm not sure how the back stock is being used/for crafting which items?
Tiralta, Tuluni, Silliy, Lbaniya
Food or metal would be amazing! We do need all of the back stock, I think their uses are pretty well balanced although that is a useful thing for me to look into when I finish work today!

Okay, I'm on it!! Thank you!

Thought of a fun way to start a speech:
Acquaintances, friends, enemies, you madmen who straddle the line, people I donÂ’t know, and people known by reputation, itÂ’s good to see you today.
And then they start speaking of an obscure part of genetics they discovered that will revolutionize another field of biology.

In fact, we are the 7th of 7!
Chacapoya, Typica, Tiralta, Villagers Uninted, Tuluni, Ban Oldern
I'm looking at the rankings and there are several metrics. We're in the top 7 in hald of them. So how is it decided? I assumed the main metric was World Assembly Picks (we're 8th), but idk.
Typica, Tiralta, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Ban Oldern
I don't know, for sure. But if you read under each title, after clicking into it, there's a blurb with clues.
"Liked" and Disliked" is rather self-explanatory, with upvotes and downvotes. "Most Impressive" seems to do with the overall quantity of items crafted, taking into account their rarities. "Most Effort" I would guess as a ranking of individual contributions. "Most Inventive" ranks the sheer number of items, I think.
"Most Controversial" and "Most Talked About" are the two I have no idea about.

I see uzh, and use, but I see no uze
Blasphemy!

I took wisdom in the discord for approximately 3.5 minutes before seeking second opinions but I will accept a treatise on other options for sure
Typica, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Dutchformosa
You're fine haha, I don't abbreviate usual anyways
I'll probably just vote uzh :>
Tiralta, The Blue Fire
I will never shorten this word in speech, but I have voted how I imagine it would be spelled.
Typica, Tiralta, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Dutchformosa

Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Ban Oldern
Gen alpha might on NS by now 😟
Tiralta, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Dutchformosa, Ban Oldern
I also never shorten the word usual but my instinct is to spell the shortened version “youge” to rhyme with “rouge.”

Unfortunately the event has now ended, so there's no more getting of resources or building of wonders.
There should hopefully be a news post up soon that gives the final report.

I made some military factbooks for fun.

So I just got issue #192, clicking the first option gives me the following message:
«Are you sure you want to accept legislation to dissolve your government?»
What would mean in terms on nationstates? Gameplay, stats, etc

Â…oh Â…oh
ThatÂ’sÂ… IÂ… I justÂ
Why though?
Typica, Tiralta, Tuluni, Dutchformosa, Ban Oldern, Motulele
found a forum thread on this that quotes the Got Issues FAQ:
basically all your government programs get thanos'd and such
Delta Vega Iv, Typica, Jazur, Tuluni, The Blue Fire
Oh, so the policies get reset?
Typica, Jazur, Tuluni, Ban Oldern, Motulele
You'd probably lose a lot of policies. It's the fastest way to drastically cut spending, corruption, boost rights, and lose industries and specialisations. Basically it pushes you a lot closer to a generic nation's founding than what you could normally hope to get through a slow trickle of issues.
Whether that is something you find useful or horrifying depends on what type of nation you are trying to build and what stats you want it to have.

A Million Dreams, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Ban Oldern
Well, there is the forums where you can roleplay and talk(and/or argue) with people, or you can interact with us here.
Or just write Factbooks/dispatches. ThatÂ’s also an option.

An'eth'ara and welcome to the newest, the largest, theÂ… strangest? map update in all of Refugi history. We've got it all here, step right up and see new countries being added! See, uh, seeÂ… umÂ
Okay so it's just some new countries! Normally we yeet some people off the map, we add or remove some cultures, there's something interesting and cool to riff off of and create a super unhinged map update post. Instead, we've got some good nations being added to this goodest of maps. But what are the new countries, you ask? Well, we have:
[list][*]Diamontia, a flawless Refugi who has found the perfect setting,
[*]Imsalia, an unrepentant Furry,
[*]Weirtopia, a Furry full of uwus and owos,
[*]Everetunga-Hari, returning with some new Mediterranean flair,
[*]Aseanindia, the newest Refugi,
[*]Morrigan, completing the Chacapoyan triangle, over which many planes disappear.[/list]
I had originally planned to write up some sort of 'OwO what's this? A map update? UwU We wuv map updates' post, but it turns out only two people joined the Furry culture in this update, so it would have been strange to have as many Refugi as Furries, along with a Mediterranean and a Chacapoyan. So you should all know how you were spared from that.
If you want to join this awesome map and potentially force me into writing some very strange things, check out the map dispatch below. If you're a Member State (meaning you've joined the World Assembly and have resided in the region for at least seven days), you qualify to be on the map and can send the application contained within the dispatch to me!

I think that it's just funny
Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Ban Oldern
You ever watched the modern version of Voltron(Admittedly, the people I'm about to talk about might be in the original too, but I didn't watch that so)? So, in S2E4, there was this species, the Olkari. Search them up. Now imagine their tree fortress things but underground and neon. And we also can't do the wood/metal thingymagig.
Clearly this invasion of furries must be combated. Therefore, I have a proposal for all members of Refugia:
The Revival of Fruit Culture!
Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Pantumaca, Ban Oldern
I tried dragonfruit for the first time last week and it looked pretty but tastewise was like a 6.5 outta 10. I'd try it again but it was too expensive and not good enough to buy regularly imo.
Araine, Tuluni, Estebere, The Blue Fire, Ban Oldern
From my (admittedly limited) knowledge, it would be difficult to unite multiple different fruit cultures for much time. This would likely lead to another fruit war and would only weaken you to our "invasion", as you call it.
[I]However,[/I] it would be incredibly funny, so I have to condone it
Araine, Tuluni, The Blue Fire
*notices the map update*
OwO whats this..?
Thanks for adding lil' me onto the map! uwu
Typica, Araine, Tuluni, The Blue Fire, Dutchformosa, Ban Oldern
Absolutely agreed. You'd think it'd taste more... more with how red and spiky it looks.
Then it's a good thing that there's only one "Fruit" culture, and only ish. Potato, admittedly, is a vegetable. Shouldn't be too difficult to bring a lot of people together.
And if we do start a fruit war? Who cares! The entire point is to be funny, and besides: Fruit Wars are a Refugi tradition.
...What if the next one is Fruit vs. Furry?
