I will, I will. Though I didn't mean appearance-wise (I can't draw) but more in their behaviour.

Valid point. But things ARE going worse, I think.
Oh they're like the Hideauze from Gargantia OTVP
Er... I was thinking more inklings from Splatoon. I've actually ever heard of the Hideauze :P
I'll provide more info in my factbook soon.
Just a status update:
-Sodor-
Equestrian investigators have found no evidence linking the appearance of 'molly' among engines to the cartels operating inside the ESSR. The department will be pulled out. And a visit by Premier Coltsov looms ever closer.
-PLR-
Trade agreements have been finalized, and the first convoys have been dispatched.
-The CoFN-
Ambassadors have been sent out to embassies across the region to help promote goodwill. And construction on the "Palace of Liberty" has started in Stalliongrad. This will serve as a seat of power and vacation home for six leaders. If you wish to have such a prestigious honor, telegram/message me. Your national banner will be hoisted upon one of the poles. Each room will be customized to the leaders specified tastes. This home is neither earthbound nor seabound. A veritable mansion in the clouds.

I've got Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. What u need?
Did you know?
Squidspawn have no curse words in Mennsprach (the language used to communicate with other species) to avoid offending other races. If an agitated Squidspawn gurgles during a conversation, it's because it curses in it's native tounge.
Once every month, Squidspawn must get rid of excess ink in their "hair" by gently squeezing their tentacles. Nearly all clothes made in Waldberg are dyed from with this excess ink.
Squidspawn love to bathe! They are particlarly fond of thermal baths and hot springs and Squidspawn travelers often map their route along good bathing spots.
Squidspawn often wear colourful, puffy clothing because it makes them look bigger.
Not cultural appropriation.
Cultural assimilation in when a minority culture adopts the practices and traditions of the majority culture.
Cultural appropriation is when a majority culture takes something from a minority culture and appropriates to their own. Halloween originates from Ireland, but Americans appropriated to what it is today can be an example.
And I don't consider it a bad thing. Just a typical societal trend that cultures around the world do.

Hey, is there any set start date for the RP?
If you mean the Medieval RP, it's when I finish the map, which is probably next weekend.
Alrightey! I can't wait to get going!

I hate technology so much. I've had so many problems with my laptop and been to PC World so many times it's practically my second home.
Try having to unplug and replug an old router almost every single day because of IP address conflicts :p
Nuremgard
I can't recommend r/techsupport reddit enough. Their live chat is so useful, and it's completely free at-home advice from a real person who has a passion for what they do. If you have a second device that can connect to the internet, go tell em' your problem and they may be able to fix it for you. My PC has broken four times and each time, without failure, they have diagnosed the problem and got it fixed where other forums haven't - saving me calling out the computer repairman, who charges ludicrous prices.

Perhaps it should be known that I started school soon before you sent the TG's, and have been off of NS for a very long time. It should be voted by the people; put your other things to a vote next time, too.

I would like to announce that I choose Oelesa as the region's new cartographer. I had a tough time choosing between people, but Oelesa has both experience and, while he is a member of Concord, he is an inactive one at best. However, I believe he will be active in mantaining the map and, as such, am confident in my decision.
Jaslandia, Oelesa, Percyton, Solla Ultima
Your loss :P
Axeldonia
That's great! Here's Thomas' statement:
"The State of Percyton appreciates the assistance provided by the investigators from Russkov Soviet, and we are pleased by the results of their investigation. We also eagerly anticipate Premier Coltsov's visit, and we will make every preparation possible to ensure his visit is comfortable and pleasant."
Russkov Soviet, Jaslandia
Alright. All relation between our nations have been cancelled. We will avoid contact as much as possible.
Andromitus
And we are communist by personality....
Our government and way of life says otherwise.

Hey! Don't be mean to my leftist buddy!
Telegram this nation for information on how to join the International Standardized Currency, a system that makes role-play and trade more realistic while also allowing you to maintain sovereignty, including your nation's currency.
Jaslandia, Percyton, South Hyder
You know, a private citizen institution might be better off with a name that reflects it. :p
Jaslandia
Updated my national anthems!
Nuremgard, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton
...then I will start WWIII
Perhaps it's only me, but it seems quite obvious that this organization is privately run rather than being run by the government.
Neither the flag nor name have any similarity to the official logo affiliated with the CoFN or even mention the CoFN in any capacity.
The word "United" is used solely because regardless of the fact that it is run privately by a few people, it is a union of nations and that vocabulary is reflective of such.
An attack on a leftist nation will obligate China to help said leftist nation. You know that better than most people here. So please, don't drag me into another conflict when I'm already helping you against the Egyptians.
...they're lucky that I'm working with you. You're the only hindrance to me waging an ideological war...because well i like my Chinese contacts
Of course. How much are you looking to get?
I'll pay top dollar for sure.
Percyton
Now, I know you two are allies and friends and economic trades are good; But I would also like to bring up the fact that you're both Russia and Kazakhstan, two countries with a fairly sizable supply of domestic Uranium, especially in regards to the latter...
Jaslandia
Mind your business.
Jaslandia
Hell he (She?) should be exporting to you :3
Jaslandia
I'll leave that up to you
Congo has uranium and so does Angola so you're wrong
That is true, Russkov's country (Russia and Kazakhstan) have the second and third most abuandant uranium reserves in the world. Australia is #1, and accounts for 31% of the world's recoverable uranium.
Jaslandia
I'm wrong about what? I was making a comparison, and in comparison to both Kongo and Angola, the combined reserves of Russia and Kazakstan far outnumber your own. In all seriousness I was making a joke to both of your stockpiles in comparison to each other, I wasn't saying you didn't have any, far from it.
I was instead pointing out the irony of you selling him something he has an abundance of.
Jaslandia
lol come at me bro. Do it. I want you to do it.
Jaslandia
Oh Andy...
Jaslandia
[nation=peoples_liberation_republic], you should know you have the world's largest reserve of coltan, which is used to produce tantalum capacitors in electronic products.
It's interesting, because it seems like every nation in the RP is the world's best producer of something. This proves earlier assertions that only a few nations had all the resources and the rest were just wastelands wrong, for even I have the world's largest supply of tungsten.
Jaslandia, Peoples Liberation Republic
Please don't
No no, no come on, Tse nuuuuuuuuuuuu
Not to brag or anything, but I probably have the most valuable resources, since my land sits on a ton of oil. I haven't done the math, but I'd estimate I have about a quarter of the world's oil supply. You're lucky I'm a kind and neutral power, otherwise I could do a lot of economic damage to your nations by cutting off your oil.
Speaking of which, I'm always open to making trade deals for my oil, if any of you are interested.
Percyton
No need for me to buy oil
Jaslandia, Percyton
After this poll, yeah.
lol its from a comic Kal posted on the Discord the other day. :P I was simply copying it for comedic effect. This was not my serious face. See *Points to face*
You can end the poll early

And I got a shït-ton of lithium from Lake Assal, as well as the natural resources in all three regions. Please, someone buy my lithium to make crappy batteries.
Also, got to love when Jas threatens to anal-rape you: no one expects the kind one in the region to be capable of destroying another nation by economic means.
Jaslandia
I don't know if any of you play Europa Universalis 4, but I just got a personal union over Castille as.....France... And I'll be integrating them by 1504....I practically don't even need to play anymore, I can just put my world conquest on auto-pilot.
Jaslandia, Axeldonia, Penguania And Antarctica, Lex Caledonia, United Continental States
Oh yeah, kinda forgot about that.
I'm interested boyyo.
Australia has a lot of stuff, and we'd be willing to give you a discount on a military purchase.
Hello I take now :3
No but really I wouldn't mind.
Jaslandia, Percyton
You nee to put the lithium into the food man, it will make your people superhumans or something I assure you

I've started playing CK2 again as the Petty Kingdom of Munster. After about 100 years I became married to who would later become the Queen of France, so our son is going to be the King of Ireland and France. I expect there to be plenty of revolutions by other French dukes to claim the throne from me.

You sure about that? How else are you going to power your tanks and ships? Or power your cars and trucks? Do you have your own oil?
I would buy your lithium, but Jaslandia isn't really interested in supporting a war-torn and unstable state, especially when there's a good chance the person we're trading with is some cruel warlord.
I'd like that very much. Jaslandia's military could probably use an upgrade at this point.

I really like the new logos, just two things.
First, if you make the logo and text significantly larger on graphic springs the dots in the background will go away and it will just be a higher resolution in general.
Secondly, I think we typically use Chancellorship rather than Chancellery (even though they're both correct).
