Region: The Confederacy of Free Nations
What? Are you telling me that quantity of communication and communication style are the same? If you are, then I don't really have anything more to say, because Aech is right and you are hopeless.
I honestly didn't read this part of your post. I'm just going to encourage you to vote your conscience, as I vote mine.
So you didn't read my post...but are going to interpret the first line anyway without any context?
Also great non-answer, really hoping our future MoJ does good with actually talking to us.
ugh i cant even
Erik is doing this too. Honestly its a lot better for your mental health. between his types and his run-on sentences, i can feel my IQ dropping
The ad hominem in this RMB.
Much anget in this yhread, there is.
Kalaron
No, I didn't bother reading it. Honestly, it would be a waste of time. You are so eager to reject basis logic and semantics, that I don't think anyone, no matter how eloquent, could get you to admit you are wrong.
Congrats on ad hominem attacks, but they need work.
What'll especially need work is actually responding to my points rather than just calling yourself intelligent, but I figure you'll probably just ignore that bit.
You have a typo in your statement criticizing typos. Nice, Betsy DeVos.
That was legit funny.
Tserra, Magnatronia, Mdogao, Aech
*sigh*
Really ?
Jaslandia
Well, there's been plenty of times from Peng, Sul, Bax, Merc and Unf that I've lost count, but maybe.
I mean, none of them were trying to support a hypocritical point by ignoring the other person's statements, but hey, clearly if two people who just admitted to not reading posts can't it might as well be impossible, eh?
It's not an ad hominem if it's true. Your sentence structure and writing is so poor it's infuriating. You just drop a wall of typo-ridden run-on sentences that barely make sense. I can't respond to your points because you don't actually make any.
Ugh. Fine.
Mdogao
I didn't read this post.
Aech
That's the spirit.
Not even how ad hominem attacks work, but sure.
Congrats, hope you run again.
Aech
Look, you can trash me as much as you want, but Aech is right. It's honestly painful to see you try to argue a point using complete nonsense. It's better for my mental health if I just pretend you don't exist. Goodbye.
How was your organ transplant ?
Aech
Ugh. I could spend another ten minutes telling how wrong you are...
He was appointed.
Same. Bye now
Thank you for asking! They say it was a perfect operation. No surprises, no difficulties. I'll be on bed rest for a while, but everything looks good.
Merlinton, Aech
By the definition of ad hominem, not how they work.
Aech
Good. Don't get too much stress. It is not good for your body. And get well soon. :)
Jaslandia, Mdogao
*sigh* No.
An ad hominem is "you're fat," "you're dumb," etc. I'm telling him that he literally cannot make or respond to arguments in a logical fashion, and am not going to waste time trying to deal with him.
No, it's not.
ad ho·mi·nem
ˌad ˈhämənəm/
adverb & adjective
1.
(of an argument or reaction) directed against a person rather than the position they are maintaining.
Even if you could factually prove that I ain't an idiot, you still are using an attack on me rather than my position.
Oh wait I'm just refusing to let you be right, right?
Jaslandia
Thank you! I'm trying. ha.
Yes, there's a difference between offering an unsound premise and literally being unable to communicate in a productive way. One can be corrected, and the other can't.
Aech
My professor just surprised us with pastries and juice. I love uni.
Magnatronia, Mdogao
Which class?
Game theory with Professor Fries. We had to create a Cournot competition with eclairs and scones.
So, when they put the kidney in, how do they make room? Do they just jam it in there?
Mdogao
I have no clue. I am not a surgeon.
Mdogao, Aech
Basically yes. Everything just squishes around to make room. Then the failing kidney shrivels up and is absorbed by the body.
Aech
Sorry I just meant generally.
Delicious!
Only if its with a nice Chianti.
the wine? I've never tried it.
Me neither. It's a line from Silence of the Lambs.
The film? I haven't seen it...
https://www.kidneyresearchuk.org/health-information/kidney-transplantation
They leave the old kidneys in place and just squish the new one in!
Magnatronia, Mdogao, Aech
It's ok. There's a lot of references to it in film and television, so its probably good to see it just to be able to recognize the allusions when you see them.
Aech
Nothing will ever beat GLB Studies with Professor Simmons. Absolutely loved that class. We really only ever ate and talked. :p
Kalaron, Aech
Yes, this just happened to me. For a little while, I will have three kidneys inside me before before the original ones break down.
Aech
GLB? Global studies?
I took a world studies course, we had a different snack every friday. good times.

Nope, that class would actually be worth something.

Hello!
Andromitus, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona, Mdogao, The Mercantile League, Aech
Good evening, friends. I am proud to announce the foundation of the Alliance of Imperialist, Corporatist, and Objectivist Nations ("AICON"). This fraternity of nations will devote itself to promoting classical economics, mercantilism, and objectivist thought. If you are interested, please telegram me.
Good day!
Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona, Magnatronia, Mdogao, Aech
Welcome to our humble abode!
Penguania And Antarctica, Mdogao, The Mercantile League, Aech
Greetings!
Penguania And Antarctica, The Mercantile League, Aech
Oh, I see. What degree are you seeking?
Welcome to the COFN.
I'm in
Penguania And Antarctica, The Mercantile League
That's pretty spooky. You're more than human.
Penguania And Antarctica, Mdogao, The Mercantile League, Aech
That would be a good name for a band
Merlinton, Penguania And Antarctica, Mdogao, The Mercantile League
Im looking to get a degree in Criminology, though I'm think of pursuing a dual major between that and International Law or Forensic Psychology.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Mdogao, Aech
I can see criminology obviously fits with forensic psych, but not with international law. Are you thinking of a career that combines int'l law and criminology?
Penguania And Antarctica
So who's in control of the maps?
Penguania And Antarctica, Mdogao
Not necessarily, though I wouldn't mind working in the International Criminal Court in some way. Though criminology is definitely not prerequisite to work in such an organization, I'd much rather have it than not. International Law fits into it for relatively obvious reasons.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Mdogao, Aech
That's an excellent ambition; good luck!
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona, Mdogao
I believe that would be Monsieur [nation=short]Baxten[/nation].
Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
Thanks mate.
If you don't mind my asking, what's your major? Or planned major?
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Aech
I'm doubling in economics & physics. I want to be a quant trader.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
I see. I see.
As you can tell by my flag, I'm not good at economics. :P
In all seriousness, that's a pretty respectable field to enter into. All the power to you.
Penguania And Antarctica
I'm doing Politics and International Relations with perhaps a Master in War Studies with the idea to work with a defence organisation.

Free for MoFA!
Penguania And Antarctica, Mdogao
As a long time member of the region, and previous ambassador in several games including Politicsandwar, I believe that i can bring the best possible program for you and the world. I will focus on building relations and possible mergers; at such we will increase our activity and our international reputation!
Vote Free for MoFA!
Penguania And Antarctica, Mdogao, The Mercantile League
Thank you!
That's awesome- are you thinking public sector or NGO?
Penguania And Antarctica
Mergers.... or acquisitions?
Oelesa, Freewire, Magnatronia, Mdogao
Mwahahaha.... Would you really like the answer?
*Tosses mercenary contracts with Hillary's emails*
Just kidding!
Obviously, I will be interested in obtaining possible mergers with younger, active regions who are prone to CTE's. we can offer a stable house for them, and they will add to our activity.
Oelesa, Magnatronia, Mdogao, The Mercantile League
So they would come to this region? We would not be migrating to a new, third region?
Oelesa, Freewire
I hope public, for me it opens up more doors, but I wouldn't say no to an NGO
Mdogao
Mine was first lol.
Einsiev, Penguania And Antarctica
Indeed
Yukona
Not third, sixth
The Mercantile League
Is there a pun I am missing?
Region 1: Us.
Region 2: Them.
Region 3: New region as result of merger.
Oh, you mean something else. Im talking about our multiple movements. NGA to CFN back to NGA to Montaris to CoFN. So I meant to say five.
Penguania And Antarctica, The Mercantile League
This region is the fifth iteration in a line stretching back.
Penguania And Antarctica
Oh, I see! Thank you for the explanation! This bunch certainly has a long history.
Also, I don't think we've met. I'm Erik, Merc. Nice to meet you.
Penguania And Antarctica
My name is Bax. Im your local cartographer, so if you need a map spot, TG me.
Vista Major, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica, The Mercantile League
I will as soon as the honorable M. [nation=short]The United Providences of Perland[/nation] approves my citizenship application.
Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
Did you resend?
It was denied a day or so ago.
Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
My school is sending me to a conference about space law. Very exciting!
Vista Major, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica, Magnatronia
Chill yourself. I'm working on it.
Oelesa, Magnatronia, The Mercantile League
I can't determine your tone. Have I offended you?
Oelesa, The United Providences Of Perland
No. Imagine the tone of a layed back guitar teacher who's also a hippie.
Merlinton, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica, Magnatronia, Mdogao, The Mercantile League
Is that your RL identity? Because that's how I'm going to picture you from now on.
But seriously, thank you
Merlinton, Jaslandia, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica
No. That was just the tone I set for that lol.
Penguania And Antarctica, Magnatronia, The Mercantile League
Idc if it is. Perland is a layed back guitar hippie teacher now lol.
Merlinton, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, The United Providences Of Perland, The Mercantile League
That rug really pulled the room together.

Everyone make sure they get around to voting! Great times are coming in! #EndOfAnError

...clever...very clever.
Vista Major, Oelesa, Yukona
Just wondering, what is your WA nation? You don't have one listed on the citizenship roster
Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
Hello, all!
First, I want to say 'Welcome' to the newcomers we've gotten over the last couple of days! My name is Percy, King of Percyton and the #6 engine on the Island of Sodor. I'm so glad you're here!
Second, I want to encourage everyone to vote! As Toby told me, voting is a serious matter, because it's how you get your voice heard and how you keep your elected officials accountable. So pick your favorite candidates, fill out your ballot, and then send it in to fulfill your civic duty!
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
Hello, Percy. I'm Merc, it's very nice to meet you!
Although I must wonder, if you are the king of Percyton, why are you the No. 6 engine? Why not No. 1?
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
There was already a #1 engine when I arrived here; his name is Thomas, and he's my best friend. Engines don't usually change their number, so when I became King, I stayed #6, and Thomas stayed #1. Besides, I like being #6, and I couldn't imagine myself being any other number.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, The Mercantile League
What a curious land. Who was the king before you?
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
That would be Gordon the Big Engine, the #4 engine on Sodor and the main express engine of the railway. Gordon is currently my Chief Adviser.
There's actually a factbook listing all of Percyton's monarchs, in case you're interested.

Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
It's also a very cute and adorable nation :)
Jaslandia, Tserra, Percyton
Thank you, Peng! I appreciate that. You have a very cute nation too.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Tserra
low-key taking the l in eelctions right now.
The United Providences Of Perland
Aww, you are such a flatterer. =)
Jaslandia, Percyton
Is it really flattery if it's true?
Penguania And Antarctica, The United Providences Of Perland
Hmm, I don't know. That's a trick question isn't it ?
