Hi Canada

a few years have passed since I last time had a nation in this region. Probably I won't keep my pretty WA nation here for long but will exchange it somewhen soon with another (still good looking) puppet.

I'm sure noone cares ... but what I actually want to ask:

How did you come up with 'non-crappy region'?

Texas also sports a similar statement in their WFE. Also in the same shade of bright red text. Also displayed bilingually:

Howdy, Welcome y Bienvenidos to Texas - a proud member of the Non-Crappy Region Network™!

As you can see, their notice sports a trademark. And Texas was once founderless, like Canada, but was among those regions in a trial-run of mod-placed founders, before the process was stopped (if I understand correctly).

Given this, and Almonaster's info that it was already in place in 2004, my guess is that this may once have been a more common designation in the early days of NationStates, as a sort of statement of pride for a region that has attempted to distinguish itself from among the many probable-crappy regions back then. Perhaps among self-consciously "international" or cross-cultural regions?

But, this is just a guess. I hadn't noticed this until you pointed it out.

Oh, that is even more interesting than I thought. Funny how some things remain part of the WFE all the way until today.

Hey, you look familiar : )

There is currently a new resolution at vote. I will cast my vote based on the result of this poll. Please remember that you can only vote once no matter how many nations you may have in Canada.

So what’s the craic with the zombies? We killing, curing or converting?

We probably should of put up a poll.

Cure is our default option. We've tried a couple of time for 0 fatalities, but been stymied by something. We could have another go at that. Getting people to research early is important.

Alternatively, I don't think we've ever gone for kill. 100% casualty target?

We did try embracing the hordes, but as I recall it wasn't much fun.

I have my military set to exterminate infected.
