Tiralta wrote:What's y'all's favourite holiday or festival?

It really depends on where I’m living at the time! My old town used to have an art festival which I loved going to every year. I especially liked watching the glass blowing, but looking at everyone’s artwork was awesome too. In high school my favorite was a school “dance” where everyone would do funny or absurd skits and dress up in silly costumes and then we’d all jump up and down and scream the lyrics to pop songs that most of us barely knew. There was also a voting contest for whoever’s costume was the “stupidest.” I never went to any actual dances but that one was a lot of fun. Right now my favorite is Halloween because I work at a dog daycare/boarding place and a lot of the customers bring their dogs in funny costumes during October and everyone votes on the best ones. When I was a little kid I loved thanksgiving because my family was still semi-functional back then and I liked making a big fancy dinner with my dad.

My favourite festival is a light-themed festival that takes place each year in my city in October. There are loads of art installations based around light all across the city. It takes place at night and it's really lovely to walk around for hours to try and find all of the art. They also usually have some short music or poetry performances that you can go to, and there's always some really great street food stalls.

Even though I'm no longer religious, my favourite holiday is Pancake Day. My wife and I invite a bunch of friends to our house the weekend before and just make as many pancakes as people will eat and it's a really fun tradition that we've made over the years.

Never been, but I'd like to get to Oktoberfest some time. Bring on tjhe b33r!

I never heard about that one before today, that sounds really cool! If I ever go to Brazil I'd definitely want to visit while that festival was happening.

Awww, I love how yours has changed but those all sound so fun. I've never seen glass blowing irl so that sounds like the most amazing competition to see in person!

My favorite holiday in my old country is Undas or Day of the Dead. Our families would go to the cemeteries to the graves of our relatives and eat lots of food and celebrate. In my new country, my favorite is Thanksgiving pretty much because of the food and the general mood of it.

Looking up pictures of Undas, I am very taken by it. Just seems like a lovely time. I wish my country had more communal celebrations of the dead, especially in the cemeteries themselves, rather than the somewhat solitary and somber occasions that our memorials often tend to be. It seems like it would be quite beneficial for the families.

Thanksgiving because of my grandma's famous jello with fruit in it. It still makes my mouth water.

I'd say the map takes place on a separate pocket dimension of the internet. In some frame of reference, it is the world. In another frame of reference, it is an infinitesimally small allocation of it.

I have a bottom 1% stat in Rudeness, I'm in the bottom 250 for it. But mostly I'm proud of that cause I've been secretly trying to have Tiralta be less rude than Typica for months.

Typica is my favourite stats player on NS, and so he is definitely someone I take inspiration from. (Anyway, I fully expect that he will wake up, answer some issues and once again be less rude later today)

Almost all of my low stats. I'm at the top 100% for patriotism, defense forces, law enforcement, woodchipping, arms manufacturing and mining. Low weaponization, obesity, corruption, charmlesness, death rate, political apathy, crime and wealth gaps are nice too.

Also proud of my high stats except for rudeness. What's weird is that I'm top 4% for rudeness and top 2% for niceness. I feel like these stats should counter each other.

people are afraid of the femboy beavers ig

also can we take a moment to mention that world census figures are absolutely insane. You've got each person saluting a flag on average once every 3.5ish days, and barring the existence of Patriot Georg who salutes 1.1 billion flags a day and who is an outlier and should not have been counted, that's an insane rate. Keep in mind, I am an American, where patriotism is the second largest religion (/s), behind college football but ahead of the borderline worship of Irish ancestry that causes countless rivers, fountains, crowds of people, and apparently beer in one university, to suddenly become green once a year on St. Patrick's Day. And as you've said, that's on the low[/I] end. I'm still really far down (only 99th percentile, not 100th sadly) and my citizens salute a flag on average every 2 days. For comparison, the US is extremely patriotic, but even if every member of the military, both active and reserve, were to salute 9 flags a day (assuming minimal flag-saluting by civilians), it would still come dead last in NationStates. And actually, because of rounding, it might actually [I]still[/I] be dead last at 10 salutes/military member/day. Getting an average amount would require the military to salute over 1.6k flags a day, or for a [I]very[/I] dedicated Patriot Georg to keep his hand up in a salute for 24 hours while flags go through his line of vision at 36.86 km/s or Mach 107. And for extra brownie points, assuming that US Patriot Georg is not doing this while actively in space, (but also approximating the flag as a turbulent flat sheet with a thickness of 6 mm, which I got by literally comparing the thickness of an American flag to a single strand of hair (help I've been sucked too far into a math rabbit hole)), air resistance will provide an average of 468,600 N of force, or the force of about a minute's worth of Big Macs suddenly being pelted at you at 1.4 times the speed of sound (sorry I'm an American I had to). Additionally, the shockwave from the speed would be enough to envelop the earth in a fireball that would be 3.3 times brighter than the sun in a second (appearing roughly 6.4% brighter from Mars at its average distance from Earth) and would last for 7.5 days.

Moral of the story: if you're doing space travel and a star suddenly appears over a recently human-colonized world, it might be Patriot Georg. Second moral: if your mind is trying to convince you to make a quick calculation about how much energy a supersonic flag would produce, DO NOT listen do it. It's an hour and a half in for me,

Attention. Citizens of Refugia.

The Chacapoyan Council has spent a great deal of time considering the current state of the nation and the lack of available motorized transport, and as such, has decided to rescind the foolish ban on powered aircraft.

From now on, the flits will be conscripted into building a fleet of personal aircraft for every member of Chacapoya, and eventually, the world.

Please, join the Chacapoyan Airplane Supremacy Accords, and make this dream of a grey sky, crisscrossed with chemtrails, more than just a dream.

This is quite the about-face in Chacapoyan policy. Big, if true.

As airplanes play such a large role in our culture, we would love to sign on to the new accords. Our aircraft may not exactly be cutting edge — held together mostly by coconuts and wishes, as I understand — but you have our support. And our coconuts. Maybe they are magic coconuts? Who can say...

Across this event, I'm pleased to say that we added nearly 4,000 endorsements to Refugia. Throughout this event, fifteen nations have brand new gold 1% badges in World Assembly endorsements, and Refugia itself now has a total of ten *million* influence points -- one of the few user-created regions to ever hit such a milestone.

Edit: (Also Ullrani's deck is full, so you should let me know if you want your card)

interestingly tho I have basically the same makeup with some retail, beverages, and pizza mixed in. checked some other countries and Tiralta has that plus basket weaving, Chacapoya has this minus books (presumably replaced with e-books for less logging), Refuge Isle has this, Sylh Alanor has this minus the IT sector, Narwhal has this plus a little bit of beverages, Typica has this, Araine has this plus a lil bit of gambling and basket weaving, I could go on. whole region is actually 10-20th percentile in both of those and mid-tier in everything else

the ecosocialist desire to make books and computers is real and very, very strong

Don’t forget tourism!

People love my trees.

the more you talk about your beavers being vicious and stuff the more I want to have Turkkon-Kaupun formally send them (the beavers) a note that says "please pretty please join our military" (obv more formally)

edit: am going to do this, just gonna wait till the civil war kicks off so it can be a thing to multiple different species in different areas. oh yeah and canonically the Tkn. army could like immediately overthrow Ban Oldern with a third of their currently active troops. I changed the pretitle of Turkkon-Kaupun from "Protectorate" because, canonically speaking, if anything Ban Oldern is the protectorate here.

The animal armies of Refugia grow stronger. The remaining five raccoons defending Tiralta rejoice.

Thank you Refuge Isle! May Refugia grow ever greener! How far are we from the world record of Endorsements?

PS: I made good buck on that Legendary and am now making a Refugia collection. If you have Refugia cards, I'm buying! Also accept trading cards directly for others of similar value.

I am pleased to bring you the final update of the Endotarting compatition! It appears that the winning number today was 201, as in 201 endorsements given, is what was needed to rank in the top 50 nations and receive a legendary card from the Season 3 Strategic collection.

Krattler only endorses me. 😎

They’re responsible for millions of deaths a year, have developed a taste for human flesh, and gnaw through bones the same as they would trees. They’re truly horrifying creatures.

Although they also help some people fake their deaths to live with the tax evading forest people but they’re still incredibly vicious and will kill pretty indiscriminately. Clearly they have some sort of peace arrangement with the forest people.

For the battle of all things last summer (or was in the summer before last, was it even summee?) I entered an army of vicious attack beavers, although through some autocorrect shenanigans or something they were also viscous (I think it was spelled viscious and I didn’t catch it), and therefore my beavers also have the ability to become puddles of some sort of thick liquid and surprise attack people.

It all started as a joke because of the causes of death chart but I’ve decided it’s canon and my nation’s wilderness truly is plagued by attack beavers.

They’re probably the only thing I really have that could resemble a military. I don’t have a real military and my police aren’t funded nearly as much as other areas so my first line of defense is the beavers. If you want us you have to get through the beavers first.

Just don’t attack my nation by plane, ground invasions only please or I’ll be forced to do absolutely nothing.

Why would you need an army, any invader would get lost in the forest or killed by beavers xD.

this is why The Blue Fire has such a small military, the invaders always get three-quarters of their army lost in the woods

You got me, this is the real reason I got rid of my military. The wilderness is so vast and full of beavers than any army will get lost or devoured by beavers, and I don’t even need to train them.

I just need to find a way to train the beavers to fly so they can take down aircraft. I don’t know if that’s possible though.

you might be able to by having one beaver spin rapidly while another beaver does sfx so it sounds like a helicopter, and therefore can fly. also it might be possible to have two beavers flap their tails aggressively while holding onto each other and take off that way

also, naval assaults could still be a problem

I'm pleased to provide the April update for the regions by WA membership, and note Refugia's continued success and growth in the report:

It would take me a long time to determine what the highest number of endorsements ever was, but I am able to tell you where Refugia ranks in total endorsements as of today.

These stats tend to be weighted very heavily towards larger regions, because more WA members means more possible endorsements, which is why Endorsements Per Capita tend to work better. But Refugia has such a high endorsement rate that we are able to hold our own despite being much smaller. That and many regions like The Pacific and Balder have extremely strict limits on how many endorsements you're even allowed to have.

Still, ranking 6th overall is quite fantastic.

No, see the beavers can just swim out to the ships.

And

Climb them? Eat them?

Okay I see your point. But if anyone still has wooden warships, they’re doomed.

And I was thinking I could hire some witches or wizards to create magic flying beavers, so maybe they could enchant some so they can fly if they just believe hard enough.

And if they can fly then the ships won’t be an issue.

alr two ideas:

1) metaltoothed beavers with a manganese/titanium alloy could possibly tear apart metal warships. maybe a special forces unit?

2) I may be able to assist. I still have plenty of prismaglyphs (and the moon-stoat, and the sun-bird). We could easily make beavers with wings ig
