I searched for a “Omnia” message board and didn’t really find anything. They only have five members (3 UN members) and only 254 million total population. They seem like a good “mark.”

Yeah, it was doing that last night at 8pm EST and still doing it at lunchtime today. At least we’re all #1.

Yay! I’m number one! For once…  
Too bad it might but a damper on the invasion we had scheduled this weekend. Let’s try back later tonight.

Looks like it’s all sorted now. Anyway, the People’s Republic of Jolor has arrived and has applied to the UN. We are preparing to defend this region during the coming war!

What the heck should I do about this?

That is very interesting…

Did you get the password? If not message him back and ask for it. Maybe the invasion of Omnia is back on…

</div>

I asked him for it. I think I said:

“I am in? Great, what’s the password?”

I’m guessing he meant to say something like:

“We would love to give you our password, but first, for our own security, we must ask you about your current region. And you are in…?”

Maybe not. So I played it stupid back at 'im. We’ll see.

It might be a good idea to add some more chatter to the nationstates page, see if we can bump all the invasion talk off of there, in case I have to “reveal” my location to the poor fool…

If he asks what region you are in, just move to one of the huge ones like the South Pacific or something. People are moving in and out of that region so fast he won’t be able to trace you back to Sea of Cecil.

Sorry about that, **Darth** , I seem to have mistyped the address. It should be fixed now. Thanks for pointing that out to me.

Felinish is ready and willing with teeth bared… but I must know a time, because I may be otherwise occupied during the invasion in which case I would have to guard the homefront!

What times can most people make it? I’ve been assuming weekends, just because it seemed like the kind of thing to assume, but I’d like to know to help coordinate better.

As I noted over there, I’m no good for this weekend. Got some bats to see!

Heh Heh.

What time are we meant to move again? Whether weekends are good or not depends on that.
