Louisa Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Hello! I just wanted to tell everyone of a wonderful online game called Cyber Nations ( https://www.cybernations.net/default.asp ) that is free to play for anyone. You can fight wars, or grow in peace, and do so alone or in one of the many alliances. At first, you create your own country wherever on Earth you want, and choose what country it is (government, religion, etc). You start with two resources (like gold, or cattle) and can trade with other countries -- some resources combine to make a new resource, like Fast Food or Beer... The first two or three days nobody can attack you, and if you want to live in peace afterwards you can choose to be a peaceful country so no one can attack you. That makes you grow very slow however, so it is good for your country to fight a war every now and then. But people do not like when others just attack at random -- such people are called "rogues" and are often attacked and beaten to a pulp if they make trouble for the big alliances. There are very many alliances, all voluntary to join, and they go from democracies to dictatorships, from communists to fascists (though they do not like to be called that). Many alliances are joined together into very large alliances, and there has already been two World Wars fought between them. The game has its own forum, where there is much role-playing, declarations of war, taunting of enemies, trading of resources, and so on. Many people are so active in that forum I wonder if they have time to play the game... Well, this is my plan: why can't many of us from here go over there and start our own alliance? There have been several migrations from other forums (such as SA, /b/ and other places I have never heard of) and their alliances are now among the biggest. I thought of people from the Silent Storm forum at first, but everyone is welcome! What do you think? At least go and see what it is all about ( https://www.cybernations.net/about.asp ) and hopefully we can be powerful in Cyber Nations! (I do not want to lie, so I must say that my own country may get some extra things for "advertising" here, if the admin likes it, but that is not really why I post this. I love this game and want more people to join the fun. How about a StrategyCore Alliance?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullAuto Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 I don't play enough games, I suppose. Always room for one more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louisa Posted November 10, 2006 Author Share Posted November 10, 2006 Well, I did not want to confuse poeple with something new in the middle of an old thread, so I asked permission for this. My brother joined two months before me, just after the latest great almost-world-war, and then his alliance had a coup d'état that tried to make a dictatorship out of their democracy. He sat up all night long and cursed and shouted, but in the morning the coup was defeated. Now it is "uneasy peace" between the largest alliances, so it could be a good time to sneak in a new alliance and take a share of the world! (I am sorry... I am very poor at advertising, for it feels strange. But I am having very much fun at least, and would like if we could go there in force.)

Pete Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 This always amuses me - your English is actually spelled perfectly and written perfectly for the most part. If it's not your first language, you're doing very well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernel Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 One of my German friends says that they can't type in English properly and yet their English is pretty good. My response to them? You haven't seen me type in German. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louisa Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 It is much easier to read or speak, but when you have to write for many people to see it, like here, it takes too much time to think of how to write it and it becomes like work... I think I spell good, but sometimes I do not get the right words to use. Wait one minute! What happened with my latest post? I had edited it to add much other things and now it is not threre any more? But I saw it when i wrote it and it looked like it would edit the post, and now it is all gone? All my hard work...

Bomb Bloke Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Your spelling is perfect and your grammer is odd, but still legit. I guess you might have missed the "Complete Edit" button, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louisa Posted November 18, 2006 Author Share Posted November 18, 2006 I think that I tried like the Fast Edit (or whatever it was called) and then I did not find a button to say "enough with this, and post it" -- so I hit "Complete Edit" and perhaps my addition was lost somewhere like that. Oh well... It does not appear that anyone is very interested anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accounting Troll Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 The ancient Welsh kingom of Brycheiniog has taken the opportunity to throw off the shackles of centuries of English oppression Now all I need to figure out is why my people seem to want totalitarian rule and a modern monothestic Middle Eastern religion when they are a Celtic people whose capital is located on a crannog in Wales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accounting Troll Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 You should post that in the Tammy thread, maybe the citzens of Tamriel can help you Sadly, there is already an alliance called the Empire of Tamriel. I didn't feel like joining these pretenders to the throne and changing the system from within, so I joined the Green Protection Agency instead. Go GPA - as long as they hurry up with that aid package they promised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Gringo Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I got some offers....But I'll see what comes around. Maybe there should be the SCDI (Strategy Core Defense Initiative) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accounting Troll Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 If it means I get to mooch some aid from somebody I'm all for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Gringo Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 I joined team OrangeI'm trying to join Orange Shadow Force but they seems to be ignoring me. So let them roast on their orange rear for now....Did you get the aid package from GPA? Update: I checked out OSF Forum and it appears that I am now a member!

Accounting Troll Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Still waiting. There's a bit of a queue at the moment, and you can only send or receive up to four aid offers every ten days. On the other hand, I've already received two begging letters from people who can't afford a keyboard with a shift button Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Gringo Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 There is always the option of a small donation to CN. Which I made and got a major boost all over the line.Bought a harbor (For that extra trade route) , land, infrastructure, military personnel and some tanks.I am still looking around for the right kind of resources. Mainly by asking the newbie nations with the right kind of resources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accounting Troll Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 You realise you're only just short of the top 10,000? That inspired me to look into the donations offers, but it means usuing PayPal. And that means spending an hour each day sifting through the PayPal scams instead of using my spam filter to delete anything with the word PayPal in the title. My aid came through today, so I'm not bothered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Gringo Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I do what I can.I have yet to recieve a Paypal scam on my e-mail account. But I guess where there is money there will always be scam artists. Unless they messed around with the wrong people and disappear into thin air overnight.

Matri Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 But I guess where there is money there will always be scam artists. Unless they messed around with the wrong people and disappear into thin air overnight. Oh, don't we wish... I received one of those "Your PayPal account must be updated" e-mails.

Accounting Troll Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 I think I'm glad now that I didn't make that donation. A white supremacist group has been systematically infiltrating one of the alliances and siphoning off in-game resources to be build themselves up for when they declared their hand. It turns out that a few of them were already in other alliances, including mine. The game is not quite so much fun now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Gringo Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 Well I quit due to the fact that it wasn't that exciting and I had better things to do.I tried it and moved on. Nothing else to report there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accounting Troll Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 The funny thing is that all those Nazi cretins went into peace mode before they made their move. Except the one who was in my alliance and is now geting a good kicking. He is now crawling back to us for protection and claiming that it's all a misunderstanding. So much for their belief in their alleged racial superiority Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
