They did yeah. Slowed it down to make it sound sadder. Used it when the characters were recalling memories. I found this film to be much more sentimental than the first one.

Someone should make a country made up of just good looking people, where status was determined by how you look. No plastic surgery or ugly people allowed lol Wonder how that would go :p

There should be an island somewhere, where they get volunteers to participate in political experiments every 20 years. Every 20 years, just try a new system or ideology and see how it works. Would be interesting to see which is the best. It would all be monitored and there would be controls to make sure that every test is the same.

Welp, got that 6.5 X 40 round down, now to get the AEK modified in a factbook.

Post self-deleted by Magnatronia.

Hey but seriously dudes, I have this cool idea for an RP. It's similar to the one I suggested I start in the global conference, minus another nation being involved. Basically, Albert Wily and his second in command Thomas Light share the same wife/ex wife, respectively, Emily. She was originally with Thomas, but when Wily took over, he forced her to leave Light and marry himself instead. She's had a kid with both of them, too. Which is interesting to note. I'm gonna leave them unnamed for now. Neither brother knows of each other's existence. That's the backstory.

The RP is gonna have Wily accidentally killing Emily in a drunken rage. Wily then frames Light for the murder. To avenge her death, Light - with the help of his protege Sniper Joe - plan to destroy the OmniCorp HQ building in Mega City One by detonating a bomb. Suffice to say, Wily knew of their plan and he sets a trap in the skyscraper which kills Sniper Joe. Demoralized but not defeated, Light recovers the body and uses the robotic parts to 'upgrade' his own son into a cyborg: The Protoman. Protoman takes out a large amount of Wily's robots before he's overwhelmed by his personal bodyguards (And yeah, they're all gonna be based off of bosses from the Megaman game). After he dies, Wily recovers Protoman's body and begins to repair him so he can lead his army of Protomen (basically the ones that Andy calls 'Clankers'). Furious with his father killing his mother and Protoman, who he found out was his half-brother, Wily's son goes to Light and asks him to upgrade him too. Wily reluctantly does so. Wily's son becomes Megaman. The story can go anywhere from there.

Hey all, so, seeing as our MoJ has yet to actually make a Constable bill, I decided to do it myself.

The Constable Bill is currently on the Forums to be voted upon (it's basically the old bill with very minor changes -yes, you should read it- to change some niggling things like "COFN" having "Of" as part of the acronym) and y'all should go vote on it.

There are no exclusively Nazi regions on nation states, there may be Nazi members but the regions themselves are usually just natojnalsit. Why should groups like the Red Fleet and CAIN be able to shut down their communities when they do little harm, ultimately if these regions are being shutdown then so too should the hard left ones.

Can take a while though. I changed Nuremgard's history a couple of times.

If anyone asks questions about my other countries I just make it up on the spot. Like I did when you asked about Scotland's alternative history.

Hmm. I am not that creative.

I'm sure you have other strengths.

Hmm, I don't know. I'm very bad at evaluating myself.

We are all bad at finding positives about ourselves unless we're very confident or arrogant.

"The Most Noble Kingdom of Saor Scotland is renowned for its daily referendums" - according to my country's overview page. I'll soon fix that by having the Crown abolish Parliament and voting.

The history is coming to me now.

Mary Stuart has two sons, the firstborn becomes King of France and the second son takes a French army across the sea and lands in Scotland to defeat the Protestant lords. Unhappy with the fact that a Catholic foreigner has taken the throne, the Protestant elite plague the new ruler and his descendants with sporadic rebellions (aided by England) in the hopes of removing the tyrannical Stuarts. Each time these rebellions are crushed by the Crown, aided by France. Until 1707 when Protestant lords of Parliament plot to overthrow the king and join Scotland in union with Protestant England. They are discovered and all of them are hung, drawn and quartered as traitors.

Despite the fact that the current Minister of Justice had my full support upon his/her nomination and throughout his/her confirmation by the House, I have come to understand that there has been a great degree of inactivity since said confirmation and that a recent RMB message has indicated that this inactivity is likely to continue. Also understanding the Cabinet vacancies haven't been filled with the utmost haste during this administration, I enter the following motion before the House of Delegates:
