Question of the Day:
When you play Monopoly, do you prefer a particular token? If so, which one do you choose?
Scottiesland, New Cretanja, Nullcode, Tao Ambassador
the artillery piece iS by far The best option for gAmes of monopoly- in the unexpected event that some Rascal arrives at your house with a copy that isn't equipped with one, Grab your own out of your wAllet, so thaT the game will fEature appropriate representation.

Top hat
New Cretanja, Nullcode
Usually the dog, or the iron. But apparently they added a T-Rex??? So uh. That one.
New Cretanja, Nullcode, Mountain Rogue
Easy, thimble. No I wont elaborate
New Cretanja, Nullcode, Mountain Rogue
Either the duck or the top hat
New Cretanja, Nullcode
Maintain a founder, sign a treaty, raider unity.

question of the day:
which animal would be the most terrifying or unsettling if it could speak?
New Cretanja, Nullcode, Bendyben, Assassin Rome
A hyena. I just find it disturbing. Imagine the laughing.
New Cretanja, Nullcode, Tao Ambassador
My cat has witnessed too much. If it spoke it'd be very disconcerting.
New Cretanja, Nullcode, Bendyben, Tao Ambassador

question of the day;
what dystopian future do you feel is the most likely to actually happen?
New Cretanja, Bloody Good Riot, Nullcode, Bendyben
Stargate
Thorn1000, Bloody Good Riot, Nullcode
A setting something akin to the movie The Road, the one with a father and son and cannibals.
Or maybe The Colony 2013

QOTD: What piece of media (book, tv series, movie, etc.) have you consumed lately that you'd like to recommend?
New Cretanja, Nullcode, Bendyben
The Man in the High Castle. I watched it a few months ago but this alt reality series is amazing for history fans. Much recommend.
Also Spy X Family because uhhh Yor Mom \o/
Thorn1000, New Cretanja, Nullcode
Watched Purple Hearts with the Mrs. the other night. Not a great movie by most standards but probably the best RomCom I've watched in ages.
New Cretanja, Nullcode
Eh
Nullcode
good omens
honestly it's a hecking wonder it took me too long to get to it since i'm into pretty much everything from pratchett or gaiman that i've consumed
it's incredible though
and for my question of the day:
what current or recent trend baffles you the most?
New Cretanja, Nullcode
Tiktok young people really just love it for some reason
New Cretanja, Nullcode
NS-wise? I think I dislike the Royal Alliance Organization.. I have to keep it around though because of it's age, and it's ties to my former UCR.
Rudeness. I go to considerable lengths to maintain my politeness showing respect where it need be - seeing or dealing with others who are outlandishly rude for no reason, is infuriating. Even on my worst day, I could never scream at a cashier, tele-worker, etc.
If the human race is destined to annihilate itself.. and we're just brining someone back from the dead, then I would choose Christopher Columbus... not because I think he would be useful... the human race is gone, our time is over... I would want him there so that I could make sure he gets the adequate punishment for his crimes against humanity that he deserves! I would loose my humanitarian constitution just for the occasion!
I tend to favour the shoe. It's the most sturdy I think! :)
A spider. I would hate to hear how "he has a wife and kids waiting for him at home" just as finally mustered up the courage to kill him. Peace has never been an option where spiders are concerned... so if they could speak... it would cause a great deal of built of anxiety.
The Giver... a faux utopia with death and feeling-suppressing-pills at it's core.
Though I admittedly think that the setting of the Giver, isn't actually all that bad.
I was recently without internet for two weeks - thankfully I'm back now - and I actually reread the book series I mentioned above! The Giver is an amazing book and the series... well, not so much, I wont lie. But none-the-less, I totally recommend it! If anything, to have other's to chat with about it - I am Lois Lowry's biggest fan and biggest critic lumped into one ( where The Giver is concerned ).
Defenerism. Hah!
In all seriousness, if I logged into TikTok I could find 10 by just scrolling for a few minutes. lol.
( I'm seeing Ben basically said the same thing! )

Tiger, Lion, Polar bear, rhino (when angered), cat, Elephant (Tus), Chimpanzee, sharks, and many others when they seek to harm humans or eat them, however I would not be scared if they could talk.
Many.
McDonalds Fries.
Something similar to...1984 but more realistic and like China. In America...*looks at Medieval Europe* That, but theocracy and modern america.
Ceaser-Politcal speaking inorder to unite the people, Ghengis Khan-Military tactics and corruption ridder, Cyrus the great-Helps with administration, Alexander the great-Back up general, Subutai-Back up general, Mongke and Ogedi khan-Back up generals (Same with Nogai khan), Ivan the terrible (Will help purge corruption, same with stalin), General McArthur (helps with naval warfare), and many others.

The Black Company book series. It's been a little bit since I read it, but I will never stop recommending this series. Fantastic if you enjoy dark fantasy.

What happened to Japon?
Bloody Good Riot, Nullcode
Bad people were in charge of it, so we raided it and refounded it

Old polls! <3 <3 <3

I feel like either the "Divergent" or "The Darkest Minds" futures are pretty realistic considering the level of corruption and lack of human decency that is encouraged in the US.

question of the day-ish
which word would you pick, if you could only say/write one for the rest of your life?
Scottiesland, New Cretanja, Socialist Platypus, Bloody Good Riot, Nullcode

question of the day
short and sweet one today; what's your favourite scent/smell?
New Cretanja, Bloody Good Riot, Nullcode
I would love to know but everything i smell smells the same
New Cretanja, Devious, Nullcode
I love the smell of plastic. xD
So like... imagine getting a new temporary pool... and like, the plastic smell of newness and summer... gahh! I love that smell. lol. Sometimes I get a whiff of that smell on plastic grocery bags, plastic packaging, or even some carpets give off this smell.
I hope this doesn't make me weird
Devious, Nullcode
really depends on what kinda plastic smell we're talking, ahaha
i own a calculator that's smelled like burnt plastic ever since it came out of the packaging, like, 9-10 years ago :')
as for my own answer, freshly-baked bread probably?
New Cretanja, Nullcode, The 38Th Hurricane
and for today's question of the day;
from now on, instead of showering/washing hands/generally cleaning up with water, you have to pick a different fluid of your choice. which fluid would you pick?
New Cretanja, Bloody Good Riot, Nullcode, The 38Th Hurricane
eye. legitimately cannot think of an answer 2 this that isn't absolutely godawful. i guess i'd maybe go with a very mild liquid soap and just rub it off w/ a towel instead of washing it off..?
New Cretanja, Nullcode, The 38Th Hurricane
I was thinking hand sanitizer for a similar reason, but very weak 3 in 1 might be the correct answer
New Cretanja, Devious, Nullcode, The 38Th Hurricane
something along the lines of hand sanitizer or a cleaning fluid you could pour yourself over with (avoiding eyes) was my first thought, but i feel like it'd sting real bad once you get to washing yr bottom half, so i think some kind of mild 3-in-1 is a necessity
Thorn1000, New Cretanja, Devious, Nullcode
uh . . . that is pretty tough. I guess just use olive oil like the Romans did, and then body wipes
I would probably be very cranky tho
New Cretanja, Devious, Nullcode
Lemon Juice because I'm a man
Thorn1000, New Cretanja, Devious, Nullcode
Lye 😎
New Cretanja, Devious, Nullcode
I'd just not say anything.

question of the day:
what's a piece of advice you wish you had taken, but didn't?
Scottiesland, New Cretanja
not majoring in music for my BA
New Cretanja
alright, condensing a lengthy story
when my dad passed away, I dropped out of college to get a job and help my mom pay the bills. I was advised to at least keep going to school part-time, but I just committed myself to work. big mistake
New Cretanja
This is a horrible question. lol.
I guess I would choose Germ-X.
LMFAO~
Don't get involved/date/almost marry a man who can't spell his own name and is known to come from a family of multiple generations of cousin inbreeding. I dodge a bullet by NOT marrying this person... but I did waste four years trying to build a future with him. ( I found out he was trying to become sexually romantic with a child - a fifteen year old - over the internet... so needless-to-say, I ended it... )
Listerine.

I wonder what would happen if all raider regions were deleted (BoM, Lily, TBH, LWU) the feeders, and defender regions, with all their nations moving into TRR and seeing how regional communities would begin to be founded.
New Cretanja, Nullcode, The 38Th Hurricane
To stay in school, left to help pay bills and now I have to deal with those consequences
New Cretanja, Nullcode
The site would be boring.
Thorn1000, New Cretanja, Nullcode
question of the day:
what's the story behind your nation name/usual online username(s)?
i swear i'm not harvesting information for social engineering attempts, honest~
Thorn1000, Scottiesland, New Cretanja, Bloody Good Riot, Nullcode
Christopher Paloni's Eragon series. Theres a red dragon in it called Thorn. At the the time I joined this site I was really into that book series, so naturally I chose the pseudonym Thorn. That was taken, of course, so I added the number 1000 to it and that became the name that I go by
Scottiesland, Devious, Nullcode
Most based answer, best book series.
My name is Scottie, this is a country. Therefore, Scottie's Land. My usual name is Scottie or Comrade Scottie online cause of reason before but TruePi I use someplaces came from literally nothing I made it up one day and went "sure" when I was like 12 or 13 or smthn lmao.
Thorn1000, New Cretanja, Devious, Nullcode
honestly picking the edgy dragon was so on brand at the time, though lmaoo
as for my answer,
most of my main nations're derivatives of devi, which is a name i wholesale stole from a different fantasy series
in this case, pat rothfuss's kingkiller chronicles. she's a shady moneylender and overall high-tier character.
good read, would recommend if rothfuss ever decided to release book 3 :^)
Thorn1000, Scottiesland, New Cretanja, Nullcode
My nation name was only picked because it sounded like an incredibly basic and generic nation name and i am a very lazy person, or in the case of any other place online, very inconsistent, which causes me to have multiple usernames going at once.
New Cretanja, Nullcode
Made it up for an MMO. Afterwards used it for a free form fantasy RP with my best friend that we ran for like 40-50 hours a week for multiple years. Became my default handle after that.

Wanted to name my nation after the pan-Celtic deity Lugus, but that was taken. He was believed to be a synthesis of three other gods, so I slapped the Triune on and called it a day.
