Is anyone up for raiding?

Mmm yes lets raid the Confederation of Corrupt Dictators.

But in all seriousness, I would not condone any raiding to any region whatsoever, we need to make friends, not enemies.

I was just wondering if there were anyone who wanted to raid, I am trying to put together an army to liberate regions.

Oh? Well, I won't support your initiative, however, if people are willing to help you under your banner, and not ours, I wouldn't condemn such action.

Do I know anyone here? 🤔

You might know me under a different alter-ego. I've been in game for over 1½ decades.

It does seem that way. So in an effort to get some life back into this place how is everybody? Anybody do anything fun in the past few days? I, myself decided to pick up a year's worth of PlayStation Now and have been downloading new games like crazy. As somebody who has had Playstation Plus more or less for as long as it's been a thing, I can say I like it so far.
I have beaten both Wolfenstein The New Order and Wolfenstein The New Colossus.

In non-gaming news, I have been helping my mother with her door dash deliveries so my time online is cut down by a few hours on said days. I'm not sure how much that matters given how everything seems to have slowed down to near nothing but still.

Is there anything I should know seeing as I haven't been on for a few days?

I've personally been hanging out on twitter, I got it back in May and it's definitely a fun way to stay with groups of people with similar topics as me. I started watching movies with those people, and it's been very fun talking about flaws and good points to those films.

My birthday is also coming up, that's nothing too special.

For gaming, I've been playing Minecraft for a while in a new world and I'm enjoying it so far, and Animal Crossing has been a nice peaceful time.

Actually, I don't even know anything about what's going on. I usually check in every couple of hours to see the new events, and I don't think anyone's been told anything about what's going to happen.

I'm not a big Twitter user so I can't say how I feel about it but I can understand how that could be useful.

As far as movies go I haven't watched any movies so I have nothing to say on that point but I like an upcoming movie called Greenland or something. It looks like a fun movie if you like things blowing up and space rocking messing up everybody's day. I'll have to see if it's coming out soon or is already out.

When is your birthday and how old will you be? Mine is January 17th so I have a ways to go before I turn 29 years old. Feels like another life from my time in school no joke.

As for gaming, I've been busy making Youtube videos and just playing older games. Should really see about getting a recorder to get the older games. You can't record the PS3 games on PS Now and I hate it.

Hmm, I kind of guessed nobody knows what the plan is. The RMB hasn't seen much in the way of chat and whatnot. Hopefully, we can form a plan on how to boost our numbers. It's why I have kind of dropped off my time on the game. No point if you have nothing to do...you know. Doing the day's issues kind of gets old after a week or two and I've been here for half a year or so now.

Has the forum been worked on any? I haven't looked at it in a few weeks so just asking.

I'm at a loss as what to do there. IDK, start over?

I'd say we should just ignore it, and work on the NS side of Abydos. The Information section has barely been worked on, and I think that it's an important part of our region, just like every other.

Feels kind of a waste to have a forum and not make use of it. I was a big supporter in implementing a forum mostly on the grounds of ensuring any RP we may do could be done without having to hunt down what people did in the roleplay. I saw how trying to do one on the RMB failed in a matter of days and was why I pushed for it. So for me, this is a massive let down.

To me, it feels like we're just spinning our tires and getting nowhere. It has felt that way for weeks if not this whole damnable year. It feels like this place is dying slowly and I don't know I feel like just giving up and just allowing my nations to CTE. When I joined this place we had like 100 or more nations to our name. Now we have just over 30.

I know it's just a harmless online game but I have given this place a good part of a year of my life and so I feel like I should try to make this work as best I can but I don't know what I can do to get this place back on its feet. By the sounds of it, it seems like others may feel the same if no work is being done.

So yeah if I can do something do let me know. Sorry for the downer post but that's how I feel about the state of this place.

I will be having my birthday on the 31st, though I prefer to not say my age. Guess around Wanasnaswa's age if you know it.

I do agree, the issues kind of get boring, but I find enjoyment if anything happens to this place. Sometimes my issues sit dormant for a few weeks until I just want to check them.

Mm, perhaps.

I think the Chief Cartographer will be posting the RP soon. So hopefully we can get that going
