  1. However, someone could easily say that there hasn't been a truly fascist state either, because the aims of fascists were never truly fulfilled. Which is an equally ridiculous argument because it doesn't matter what their aims were, it's what they did. Essentially, neither fascism or communism should be banned, however, as highlighted in the rules, nations and players who do heinous things on the game or towards other players should be punished. -edit- I am using fascism in its broadest definition here, I of course think that !@#$ nations should be removed from the game, as much as I think Stalinist nations should. Actually, !@#$ nations are worse than Stalinist. There, I said it.
  2. Tbh, yeah these were really half baked and even then, at the time I didn't know anywhere near as much about the mechanics of the game to know how well they would work. I would like to see more diversity in the game though so as I learn more about the game I'll think and discuss changes like these in more depth
  3. Hey man, far be it from me to tell you what to do and I don't want to be a debbie downer, but you should really have thought a bit harder about this venture. 1. It seems that you hadn't even graduated from a training alliance before starting your own alliance 2. It's not an alliance if it's only you who is in it 3. You've made a DOE before your alliance is actually set up So let's think about this logically, why would someone experienced in the game want to work under someone who is less experienced than them? Why would TFP want to protect an alliance led by someone incapable of completing their own training? If I were you I'd go back to the drawing board on this one, get some experience in an alliance, work your way up to gov, make friends along the way, and then launch an alliance when you actually have allies. I wrote this with the best of intentions, and I wish you the best of luck.
  4. "I can inform you all that a hegemonic power does not quite exist, yet. " Your data doesn't inform that, it just shows the number of alliances in each bloc. I'm not saying that there is a hegemonic power or not, just that your data does not inform that. Anyhow, good work and if you need a hand gathering more data then I'd be happy to help.
  5. I want to say that OOC, I hope you are well and try not to let the game get you down too much, it's supposed to be fun. IC, try not to be so reckless in your alliance duties, you were haphazard in your time in TI and it seems also in IRON. If you give it another go, try to learn from your mistakes and I'm sure you'll be more successful in future.
  6. To be able to filter trades by nation or alliance, my thinking is that it would help alliances look through existing nations who apply to join for suspect activity.
  7. Hey, I think it would be a minor quality of life improvement to add a search function on the bank and trade activity screens on people's nations. Bank transfers and trades can really stack up over time and checking for trades or bank activity from specific nations or alliances can involve sifting through a lot of information. I don't know how in demand a change like this would be so I'd be keen to hear feedback from people. Cheers in advance.
  8. tbh I think the main point is that people don't want to share the game with people who hate things about people based on things that those people can't control. Which is fair enough. I don't want to join in the whole "you're a fascist! No, You're a fascist" thing because it's pointless. It goes beyond that and some things said in jest can cross a line, once that line is crossed I don't want to play with them anymore.
  9. indeed, it must speak volumes about how inconsequential KT is to Oasis in the grand scheme of things.
  10. Amusing that people take issue with a bloc defending its interests against an alliance violating a NAP.

  12. One Orbis year ago there was a plane crash. A Boeing 747 packed to the brim with people crash landed off the shores of Brazil. There were luckily only a handful of casualties but the landing was so abrupt that the entire crew and passengers were injured and brain damaged. No one knew who they were, where they were or what had happened involving the wreckage and burning debris... Aside from clothing and regular luggage, all that survived were several LPs and a turntable. One such LP was the self-titled Dire Straits album, with a song so great that they named their encampment after it and made it their anthem. As such, the Sultanate of Swing was born. Given that everyone in the encampment had amnesia, they had to decide names for themselves. It was an easy fix though, for they could choose their names based on their favourite albums. A leader had soon emerged, a woman by the name of Kate Bush, and she had decided that Queen would be a fitting title given everyone's love for the anthemic Bohemian Rhapsody. Queen Kate Bush had appointed David Bowie to be her chief strategist and organise the gaining of supplies and she sent off some other strong figures to build other encampments in the vicinity. Led Zeppelin founded the first of such colonies and named it Led Zeppelin II. Shortly afterwards, Kanye West and Kendrick Lamar went and founded My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and To Pimp a Butterfly respectively. They were soon followed by Queen Kate Bush founding a settlement of her own by the name of Hounds of Love and Alex Cameron founding Jumping the Shark. These settlements worked together to build weapons and small armies to acquire food and provisions from other hostile parties, most of whom were pretty much abandoned already and would seldom fight back. The Sultanate of Swing began investing in spies to look for food and protect the interests of the various settlements which were growing rapidly as the other abandoned towns and villages flocked in to enjoy the music and growth offered by the Sultanate. They soon after began exploiting the land for minerals such as lead which they could exchange for food from other established nations and settlements. One year on, the population of the Sultanate of Swing has reached over 500,000 and growth doesn't seem likely to stop anytime soon. https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=255984
