Gosh this RMB is dead

Spam? Nope.
Double post? Nope.

Better read this, Comte de sade


Most of these rules are common sense and basic courtesy, so for everyone's enjoyment of the RMB, please follow them.

  • This is a worldwide game played in people's spare time. Understand that your post might not get a response in a timely fashion.

  • Try to keep the language to standard English whenever possible. Not everyone has English as their primary language.

  • If you must use a language other than English, you must provide an English translation for your fellow regionmates.

  • The RMB is not a personal chat room. Don't expect a full conversation to happen (we have Discord for that).

  • Always be courteous and respectful to your fellow players.

  • New nations who say "hello" for the first time should have their greetings answered in a friendly manner.

  • Help your fellow players when they have questions.

  • If you ask a question and are directed to look it up somewhere, look it up where they told you to go. Don't be mad at the person helping you for not writing a full page, detailed answer.

  • If things get heated, step away from the keyboard.

  • Any topic or subject (within game rules) is allowed.

  • Real world political topics (except for special circumstances) should go to the dedicated Discord channel, not the RMB.

  • Role playing should go to the dedicated areas on the Forum or Discord.

  • The following is never allowed:

    • Spamming / trolling / flaming / flame-baiting and the like.

    • Harassment in any form.

    • Rewording or otherwise changing a quote. -snip- is acceptable, any other changes are not.

    • Recruiting for another region.

    • Asking for endorsements (Delegate and Guardians are exempt).

    • Trying to incite / cause strife.

    • Posting in ALL CAPS. This is considered shouting and spam. Learn the formatting codes to get your point across.

    • ASCII art (except by a couple of long-time pre-approved users)

    • Large emoticons. :-) :-p and similar ones are fine. Ones that look like ASCII art or like this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ are not allowed.

    • Multiple consecutive posts are considered spam (unless a reasonable amount of time has passed). Exceptions to this are on special days like Karaoke Friday.

    • Useless comments that are intended to get attention and not move the conversation along.

  • The following is allowed occasionally:

    • Shortened words/phrases or initials. Phrases like "sup" or "IIRC".

    • Unicode (fancy-styled) fonts. Remember that they don't display properly on mobile clients.

    • Emoji in a message. Keep this to no more than one per post please.

  • Most importantly: Treat others with courtesy and respect.

Remember, the Delegate and Guardians have final say on what is and isn't acceptable.

Post by Comte de sade suppressed by Kawaii Schoolgirl.

Lol, I fail to see how either post was spam. One was adding to the conversation, the other was just a lamentable but true remark

But on that note...

Syndicalist union of britain

Hello Comrades, I have come to spread the Syndicalist revolution across The West Pacific.

9 minutes ago: The Imperialistic Queendom of Kawaii Schoolgirl banned The Rogue Nation of Comte de Sade from the region.

Thank you. (It's still 'Thank you Thursday, right?)

Westwind has enjoyed it's Anarchy as part of The Sacred Order of The West Pacific for many years now.

My favorite headline of the day is from National Geographic:

"Heavy-metal space volcanoes may have forged gem-studded meteorites"

A very jolly, and very funny, sea shanty from the Brothers Four The Eddystone Light

Westwind wrote:"Heavy-metal space volcanoes may have forged gem-studded meteorites"

I can't help it. It just sounds too much like a song. I may have to try to compose a song called 'Heavy Metal Space Volcanoes' by The Gem Studded Meteorites.

I mean really. That headline rolls with a rhythm to match the best of Haiku Tuesday.

On second thought. I think that song was already written.

Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds - The Beatles
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gI4sjzlvPLo

Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes

Cellophane flowers of yellow and green
Towering over your head
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes
And she's gone

Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaahhhhh...

Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers
That grow so incredibly high

Newspaper taxis appear on the shore
Waiting to take you away
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds
And you're gone

Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaahhhhh...

Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile
The girl with the kaleidoscope eyes

Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaahhhhh...
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Aaaaahhhhh...
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds [fade out]

Fairport Convention - A Sailor’s Life

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=szrGtFxtWXU

A sailor's life, it is a merry life
He robs young girls of their heart's delight
Leaving them behind to weep and mourn
They never know when they will return

"Well, there's four and twenty all in a row
My true love he makes the finest show
He's proper, tall, genteel withal
And if I don't have him, I'll have none at all"
"Oh, father build for me a bonny boat
That on the wide ocean I may float
And every Queen's ship that we pass by
There I'll inquire for my sailor boy"

They had not sailed long upon the deep
When a Queen's ship they chanced to meet
"You sailors all, pray tell me true
Does my sweet William sail among your crew?"

"Oh no, fair maiden, he is not here
For he's been drownded, we greatly fear
On yon green island, as we passed it by
There we lost sight of your sailing boy"

Well, she rung her hands and she tore her hair
She was like a young girl in great despair
And her little boat against a rock did run
"How can I live now? My sweet William is gone"

Pink Floyd - What Do You Want From Me

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8i7248HqEY

As you look around this room tonight
Settle in your seat and dim the lights
Do you want my blood, do you want my tears
What do you want
What do you want from me
Should I sing until I can't sing any more
Play these strings until my fingers are raw
You're so hard to please
What do you want from me

Do you think that I know something you don't know
What do you want from me
If I don't promise you the answers would you go
What do you want from me
Should I stand out in the rain
Do you want me to make a daisy chain for you
I'm not the one you need
What do you want from me

You can have anything you want
You can drift, you can dream, even walk on water
Anything you want

You can own everything you see
Sell your soul for complete control
Is that really what you need

You can lose yourself this night
See inside there is nothing to hide
Turn and face the light

What do you want from me

Pink Floyd - Echoes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThWiS8tW1Uo

Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves in labyrinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant time comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine

And no one showed us to the land
And no one knows the where's or why's
But something stirs and something tries
And starts to climb towards the light

Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can?

And no one calls us to move on
And no one forces down our eyes
No one speaks and no one tries
No one flies around the sun

Cloudless every day you fall
Upon my waking eyes
Inviting and inciting me to rise
And through the window in the wall
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning

And no one sings me lullabies
And no one makes me close my eyes
So I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky

Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Full Length: Parts I - IX) - Pink Floyd

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UXircX3VdM

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.

Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the cross fire of childhood and stardom,
Blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter, come on you stranger,
You legend, you martyr, and shine!

You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Treatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
Rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions, come on you painter,
You piper, you prisoner, and shine!

Nobody knows where you are, how near or how far.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Pile on many more layers and i'll be joining you there.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
And we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph,
And sail on the steel breeze.
Come on you boy child, you winner and loser,
Come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!

Rocky Racoon, The Beatles

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDcDCZGcZj8

Now somewhere in the Black Mountain Hills of Dakota
There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon
And one day his woman ran off with another guy
Hit young Rocky in the eye
Rocky didn't like that
He said, "I'm gonna get that boy"
So one day he walked into town
Booked himself a room in the local saloon
Rocky Raccoon checked into his room
Only to find Gideon's Bible
Rocky had come, equipped with a gun
To shoot off the legs of his rival
His rival it seems, had broken his dreams
By stealing the girl of his fancy
Her name was Magill, and she called herself Lil
But everyone knew her as Nancy
Now she and her man, who called himself Dan
Were in the next room at the hoe down
Rocky burst in, and grinning a grin
He said, "Danny boy, this is a showdown"
But Daniel was hot, he drew first and shot
And Rocky collapsed in the corner
Now the doctor came in, stinking of gin
And proceeded to lie on the table
He said, "Rocky, you met your match"
And Rocky said, "Doc, it's only a scratch
And I'll be better, I'll be better, Doc, as soon as I am able"
Now Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room
Only to find Gideon's Bible
Gideon checked out, and he left it, no doubt
To help with good Rocky's revival

Whiskey River - Willie Nelson

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSYEvTni79M

Whiskey river, take my mind
Don't let her memory torture me
Whiskey river, don't run dry
You're all I got, take care of me
Whiskey river, take my mind
Don't let her memory torture me
Whiskey river, don't run dry
You're all I got, take care of me
I'm drowning in a whiskey river
Bathin' my memory's mind in the wetness of its soul
Feeling the amber current flowing from my mind
To a warm and empty heart you left so cold
Whiskey river, take my mind (whiskey river take my mind)
Don't let her memory torture me (don't let her memory torture me)
Whiskey river, don't run dry
You're all I got, take care of me
Oh
Whiskey river, take my mind
Don't let her memory torture me
Whiskey river, don't run dry
You're all I got, take care of me
Whiskey river, take my mind
Don't let her memory torture me
Whiskey river, don't run dry
You're all I got, take care of me
Oh
Whiskey river, take my mind
Don't let her memory torture me
Whiskey river, don't run dry
You're all I got, take care of me
Whiskey river, take my mind
Don't let her memory torture me
Whiskey river, don't run dry
You're all I got, take care of me

"Love Letter" - Flying Colors
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBo3TVaDK3M

Live from Stoney Lonesome is an hour-long concert series inspired by Austin City Limits, Minnesota Public Radio's Live From Here and the several hours of cultural chat with Badger these past few years. Several personalities in TWP and all across NationStates were asked to put together a collection of songs that either highlighted a type of music important in their lives, or a favored artists.

While the series posts to Elegarth's Patio on the regional Discord, this special RMB edition is for one our most loved ElderGrumps.

Today's concert is Yy4u & Xoriet. Enjoy.

Youssou N’Dour and Neneh Cherry - Seven Seconds

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wqCpjFMvz-k

Boul ma sene, boul ma guiss madi re nga fokni mane
Khamouma li neka thi sama souf ak thi guinaw
Beugouma kouma khol oaldine yaw li neka si yaw
Mo ne si man, li ne si mane moye dilene diapale

Roughneck and rudeness,
We should be using, on the ones who practice wicked charms
For the sword and the stone
Bad to the bone
Battle is not over
Even when it's won
And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin it's living in
It's not a second

7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second

7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting

J'assume les raisons qui nous poussent de changer tout,
J'aimerais qu'on oublie leur couleur pour qu'ils esperent
Beaucoup de sentiments de race qui font qu'ils desesperent
Je veux les portes grandements ouvertes,
Des amis pour parler de leur peine, de leur joie
Pour qu'ils leur filent des infos qui ne divisent pas
Changer

7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second

7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting

And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin it's living in
And there's a million voices
And there's a million voices
To tell you what she should be thinking
So you better sober up for just a second

7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second

7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second

7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second

7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting

Darkesia, Yy4u, Bran Astor, and Peace kingdom

I found this song today and I think it's going to be my new favorite for a bit!

Friends - E^ST

My friend, you've been looking so tired
Say you're fine, but I know that you're lyin'
Why don't you walk a little bit with me?
My friend, you've been looking so angry
Don't know what the heck has been happenin'
Why don't you talk a little bit with me?

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, we're just human beings
No good at being good at things
Unsure of what the future brings us
But at least there's you and me
We're mindless dreamers smartly teamed
To face the stuff we dream of

Hurricane - The Band of Heathens

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8bRlF9bZws

Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream
I hear the south wind moan
The bridges getting lower
The shrimp boats coming home
The old man down in the Quarter
Slowly turns his head
Takes a sip from his whiskey bottle
And this is what he said
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
The high black water, a devil's daughter
She's hard, she's cold and she's mean
But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
Man came down from Chicago
He gonna set that levee right
He says, "it needs to be at least three feet higher
It won't make it through the night"
But the old man down in the Quarter
He said "don't you listen to that boy
The water be down by the morning
And he'll be back to Illinois"
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
The high black water, a devil's daughter
She's hard, she's cold and she's mean
But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream
I hear the South wind moan
Bridges getting lower
The shrimp boats coming home
The old man down in the Quarter
Slowly turns his head
Takes a drink from his whiskey bottle
And this is what he said
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
High black water, a devil's daughter
She's hard, she's cold and she's mean
But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
The high black water, a devil's daughter
She's hard, she's cold and she's mean
But nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
Nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
To wash away New Orleans
