I’m the Free Republic of Great Newington Butts. We’ve stayed as an inoffensive centrist democracy for days now, which is a bit annoying. I quite liked being a civil rights lovefest, or a left wing utopia. I’ve been a new york times democracy before too, but i don’t know what that means. Can anyone explain? So you’re the eggheads are you White Lightning? I think we’re doing quite well - you’ve just been made UN delegate! Putting a copy of the messages on the forum is a good idea, could you start a thread there with them in? ---

Hey, my economy dropped from Frightening to merely “All-Encompassing” after all you guys placed trade sanctions on me! A coincidence, I’m sure, but pretty funny none the less 😃 I keep getting stuck with the same three issues which is hurting my economy. It’s hard to continually pump up the economy with decisions make euthenasia illegal. ---

Hey, **Jophiel** , sometimes letting them pile up for a bit breaks the lock. I do wish they’d introduce some new issues, though. ---

Well, [here](http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/target=display_nation/nation=brasylvania) I am. My people are “hard-nosed,” which is fairly unsurprising. Although I don’t want to be labeled innoffensive for much longer, I tell you that. ---

I knew somebody had posted in here. Glad to see people joining up. The new issues are definitely exciting! Everybody welcome to the Sea; don’t forget to tip your waitress and endorse your friendly neighborhood UN Delegate Confederacy of Theocratic Eggheads. ---

Blackeyes: The invasion is now scheduled for Tuesday. I’m still waiting for Galau to say ok, but they did say any weekday was fine. Didn’t you leave Sea of Cecil a while ago? Can’t remember about the other region, but let me know if you do remember. We’ll leave a trail of terror and destruction in our wake! (As long as our victims consist of tiny regions too weak to resist of course) ---

My first nation did leave the region to be a pirate in another one, but sometime I’d like to return to the mother country. If anyone wants to, could you give a thought towards Ackbar101’s message to the region? I know the guy, and his group, and it’s a good group that’s had some fun with the game. ---

The young nation of [PantsFallingDown](http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/) is simply appalled that our peaceful sea would invade some other region. This kind of militaristic fanaticism will be the downfall to… What? They have beer? CHARGE!!! ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by CelticCowboy \* > \*\*Cowpokia. It’s kinda strange there. \*\* Dude, I’ve _been_ there! We went last year for a vacation. Very Nice. The cheese is excellent. At the moment I’m living In Eckvania™, currently ruled by one of my best friends Danielle, aka “The Great Pooky” and her wonderful non-existent husband, Eckvan. Tapioca is reverred and it’s somewhat of an… for lack of a better word, _odd_ place. I love it there. I’d sing the theme song, however, I don’t quite remember all the words. ---
