    Orbis News

    Issue 11 has been released and is currently being circulated now.
  2. The cycle ends here. Duat and Chateau Inc. are proud to stand up against the bullshit of chauvinistic pigs. #SexismEndsNow I am incredibly proud of the hard work done by Steuart Geharon of the Orbis News in jump-starting this.
  3. Click for Issue 11
  4. Currently looking for one (or more) people to create me two awesome flags. The first one is for my alliance, and the second is for my nation. I'm definitely aware that these would be costly, and for high quality work, I'll pay. Ripper was going to give a go at them, however he's advised I try to find someone else to tackle these challenges. 1. Animated flag designed for Duat that starts with the main Ripple II flag, and then "shimmers" into each of the four Deity flags. All the flags can be found at www.duat.pw 2. Animated flag designed for my nation, Ministry of Magic, that starts with the Ministry logo, having it alternatively glint, phase in and out, spin, basically have the seal be somewhat "bored" and do different things to entertain itself. Maybe roll out of out of the picture altogether and then roll back in a moment later.
  5. This is the best club I've had the pleasure to join since I signed up for Costco a few years ago. 10/10 highly recommend
  6. Since the game currently stacks offers, I think an easy solution could be to just stack and "update" the price if you list more than one of the same resource.
  7. If you can't afford to play, but you're actually good at playing the game, come find me on Discord. I've bought four seats and am looking to hire some folks to sit down and win me money. The people I hire won't know who else is hired, although the game masters will know that they're playing with my money (since I've already sent the cash and am now gathering up the people). Precautions are in place to help ensure that cheating and collusion doesn't happen. As for why I'm doing this, it's smart business sense.
  8. That's a question for Catsby, as all the debt predates Worgenwow's leadership.
  9. Nah, treaty stands. but yeah, Catsby was doing fine, then got sloppy, so got booted.
  10. Yeah, that's why Catsby was kicked out of Vault 111...
  11. The problem is you can't really do that. Let me give you a few notable examples. There's an alliance named Hogwarts. It's themed off the Harry Potter series. There's also a nation named Hogwarts, which is also based off the Harry Potter series. Both are successful in their own right. Why should either be penalized for the other? Back before Thalmor founded the Knights Templar, he was the leader of an alliance called Empire of The Evenstar. His nation name is Evenstar. His alliance name is Evenstar. He created an alliance basically as an empire extended off his nation. In both of the above, there's a legitimate reason that both a nation and an alliance would have the same name. Now, let's look at some other possibilities. The Knights Templar were a military order in the medieval ages. Are you arguing therefore that no one be allowed to call their nation Knights Templar because an alliance already exists by that name? The Commonwealth of Nations is a large political entity currently and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was a historical great power in the 1700s and 1800s. Are you arguing that no one should be allowed to exude either of those, because there's an alliance called Commonwealth? Let me give you another example. My nation name is now Japan. That said, Japan is the oldest continually thriving monarchy in the world. It would be arrogant to say that since my nation is called Japan, there couldn't be an alliance created also called Japan that has Daimyos and an Emperor and all the makings of feudal Japan. The point I'm making is, in the absence of alliance officers paying attention, the best solution is to make it a check-box instead. I recently sent a $200m payment to Hogwarts but accidentally sent it to the player instead of the alliance. It happens. Most nations that have similar names are really nice about sending your cash back. If he hadn't, then that would have been an expensive lesson learned.
  12. I disagree. But that's not really what this thread is about. @Geralt von Rivia I feel like if Sheepy actually implements this (which lets be honest, it's a great suggestion and super easy to actually implement, so maybe in 2020) it would cut down on a lot of hastily made mistakes.
  13. Greenland /is/ a country... and Texas /was/ a country. And Sealand is, well, it's Sealand. Texas was a country in the same way that the USSR was a country. It was, and now it no longer is.
  14. 20m on Mayweather. Sending money to which bank again?
  15. Needs more sacrifices to the gods... more death... more war... more rum

  17. I like @ForgotPants suggested layout, but I'd advocate removing the fb and discord areas altogether. if you're hellbent on keeping them, use smaller static buttons instead. You'll let the page load quicker and not have it be atrocious to look at.
  18. tbh it would be 100x easier to just add new projects. Those take a lot less time than making changes to how cities function. 1. Figure out what the project is gonna do. 2. Figure out what the project's name is gonna be, based on #1. 3. Find a picture for the project. 4. Code in the project on the projects page, revenue page, and nation screen page (assuming you aren't using a database to pull all that for you, in which case just add it to the database and be done with it).
  19. When two full years had passed, Pharaoh had a dream: He was standing by the Nile, when out of the river there came up seven cows, sleek and fat, and they grazed among the reeds. After them, seven other cows, ugly and gaunt, came up out of the Nile and stood beside those on the riverbank. And the cows that were ugly and gaunt ate up the seven sleek, fat cows. Then Pharaoh woke up. He fell asleep again and had a second dream: Seven heads of grain, healthy and good, were growing on a single stalk. After them, seven other heads of grain sprouted—thin and scorched by the east wind. The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy, full heads. Then Pharaoh woke up; it had been a dream. In the morning his mind was troubled, so he sent for all the magicians and wise men of Egypt. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but no one could interpret them for him. Then the chief cupbearer said to Pharaoh, “Today I am reminded of my shortcomings. Pharaoh was once angry with his servants, and he imprisoned me and the chief baker in the house of the captain of the guard. Each of us had a dream the same night, and each dream had a meaning of its own. Now a young Hebrew was there with us, a servant of the captain of the guard. We told him our dreams, and he interpreted them for us, giving each man the interpretation of his dream. And things turned out exactly as he interpreted them to us: I was restored to my position, and the other man was impaled.” So Pharaoh sent for Joseph, and he was quickly brought from the dungeon. When he had shaved and changed his clothes, he came before Pharaoh. Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I had a dream, and no one can interpret it. But I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.” “I cannot do it,” Joseph replied to Pharaoh, “but God will give Pharaoh the answer he desires.” Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “In my dream I was standing on the bank of the Nile, when out of the river there came up seven cows, fat and sleek, and they grazed among the reeds. After them, seven other cows came up—scrawny and very ugly and lean. I had never seen such ugly cows in all the land of Egypt. The lean, ugly cows ate up the seven fat cows that came up first. But even after they ate them, no one could tell that they had done so; they looked just as ugly as before. Then I woke up. “In my dream I saw seven heads of grain, full and good, growing on a single stalk. After them, seven other heads sprouted—withered and thin and scorched by the east wind. The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads. I told this to the magicians, but none of them could explain it to me.” Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dreams of Pharaoh are one and the same. God has revealed to Pharaoh what he is about to do. The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good heads of grain are seven years; it is one and the same dream. The seven lean, ugly cows that came up afterward are seven years, and so are the seven worthless heads of grain scorched by the east wind: They are seven years of famine. “It is just as I said to Pharaoh: God has shown Pharaoh what he is about to do. Seven years of great abundance are coming throughout the land of Egypt, but seven years of famine will follow them. Then all the abundance in Egypt will be forgotten, and the famine will ravage the land. The abundance in the land will not be remembered, because the famine that follows it will be so severe. The reason the dream was given to Pharaoh in two forms is that the matter has been firmly decided by God, and God will do it soon. “And now let Pharaoh look for a discerning and wise man and put him in charge of the land of Egypt. Let Pharaoh appoint commissioners over the land to take a fifth of the harvest of Egypt during the seven years of abundance. They should collect all the food of these good years that are coming and store up the grain under the authority of Pharaoh, to be kept in the cities for food. This food should be held in reserve for the country, to be used during the seven years of famine that will come upon Egypt, so that the country may not be ruined by the famine.” The plan seemed good to Pharaoh and to all his officials. So Pharaoh asked them, “Can we find anyone like this man, one in whom is the spirit of God?” Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Since God has made all this known to you, there is no one so discerning and wise as you. You shall be in charge of my palace, and all my people are to submit to your orders. Only with respect to the throne will I be greater than you.”
  20. These, I actually like. One thing, for the bulk import can we also get land and infra included, so we can not only set our improvements but also infra and land?
