Your views on file sharing and piracy
Yup, get mine. If I goto a party and your Ipod is playing and you leave it un-attended, best hope I don't see it. Same with cell phones, don't leave your stuff lying around. It makes no difference to me if people don't like it, I don't expect to be praised for being a theif. You can insult me all you want, I have all the friends I need to make a human wall so people can't see me stealing your purse. Lol. "My e-penis is over 9000 inches n00b!" That's how I read your post. Grow up [bleep] troll. I'm almost certain you can find a torrent of the short-lived series "Cavemen" on the Internet, and I'm almost certain that no one in their right (or wrong) mind would have that series. It freaking sucked. People don't pirate because it's free. They pirate because they happen to like what they're downloading. Don't let the price tag fool you. That makes no sense whatsoever.

Replace half that stuff with "PAGANISM IS THE ONLY WAY NOW... YEAH!" Then "BATTLEAXES-[bleep] YEAH" "THOR-[bleep] YEAH" "MILITARY-[bleep] YEAH" Etc. etc. Hehe. I edited it to include my national anthem. Which is pretty much that. Just letting Findenland know that if they attack me, they'll face an unstoppable horde of war-crazy pagans that would rather sound a bayonet charge then surrender. brb gonna mix another drink

[yt]IhnUgAaea4M[/yt] Replace America with Germania. GERMANIA [bleep] YEAH. That was actually kind of hard typing that ^. Too much vodka...from the old country.. Germania would also like to say to Findenland: [bleep] you. Come and smash your untrained hordes of peasants with antiquated rifles against my legions. It will not end well for you at all. Btw, Germania has changed its national anthem from Sons of Odin, to Gods of War: [yt]lC_x63BWrdc[/yt]

Haha I love the people in this thread that write ridiculously long posts justifying their pirating. Why can't people just admit that they do it because it's free? I guarantee you that's why 99% of people pirate things.

Everything is free when you torrent it. I like the DIY placebo effect gimmicks though ;)

Cut a pingpong ball in half, cover your eyes with them, and lie down next to a radio that's playing static. Eventually you'll start hallucinating. Much cheaper.

Latino's ship has finished construction, however some corners were cut in production due to the small cost (100b compared to Brazil's 300b), so the ship can only support 15,000, and can only travel as far as Mars and back. However, since I assume that would be what you wanted it for Latino, I don't think it should be a problem. And to Rpg: I've already expressed interest in the TeraVenger program, so Germania has allocated $200b in funds to the project. My space station will be complete in 3 years or so, and it could be constructed there. The 3 small vessels I sent slingshotting around the sun have completed their tests. They reached the maximum speed they could, and held together for 2 hours (much longer then expected). The data from the tests shows that slingshoting around a planet, while fast, does not break any sort of physics barrier and enable FTL travel. Germania has sent 3 other ships to find a black hole, to travel through it while transmitting the ship's internal status every millisecond, so that in the event that a black hole is traversable by some insane probability, the data should be received before the ship disappears. Project Cleanup is coming along nicely, and a number of derelict satellites and space junk has been cleared from the atmosphere above Germania. Full cleanup should be complete in 2 years, at which point we will move over Russian land and cleanup the junk there. Since when do you have a battleship :?

Germania has created 2 million new uniforms, which will be revealed at a later date (where's the "muwahaha" emoticon?).

Alright, I'm just going to ignore the majority of Findenland's post since they're completely ridiculous (19.7 million recruits in a year? Okay...). I have also retracted my offer of compensation for Findenland, since its quite obvious that Findenland wants a war with me for some bizarre reason. 25 more Scorpions have been produced, as well as 30 more MAASs. My colony ships are complete, and have been loaded to the brim, and are on their way to Gisele D. The escort ship is staying close by, should its weapon systems be needed for Germania's defense. The bunkers constructed across Germania have been completed, and Germania have reinforced the positions across the coast, in the event of an amphibious assault. The missile shield has also been added to, and now completely covers Germania. AA and SAM batteries are also dotted across Germania (these were built a looong time ago), and the passive radar has been improved again, setting stealth detection rate at nearly 75%. Preperations have also been made in the event of chemical/biological attacks on Germania, and hazmat suits and gas masks have been provided to active units.

You'll end up spending 200 hours to get the points required to get an item you want, when you could just work 10 hours and buy it yourself. Completely not worth it.

nice 3k posts. ;) I'd be playing with you guys, but my comp is in the shop, and I'm too ascared to start. so I'll start up wednesday prolly. Might as well just claim your country now. Pretty much the only viable options left are Bangladesh, Thailand, South/North Korea, or Nepal.

I'm interested. Though I can't fund a very big portion of it atm, with all the different projects I have going on - mainly it's FTL research that's gobbling up a good portion of Germania's scientific funds.

I'd vote yes on that propostion. 3 countries in a year is pretty obscene (especially cause its been decades and Puerto Rico won't even join the US irl) Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, and Sierra Leone hardly qualify as countries. Join you in what?

But they aren't bipedal instead they are 8 legged and heavily armoured...(so not to the same degree) There is always going to be small weaknesses in the armour of something like that, especially around joints. thats what the SEDs are for; get in the small hole and blow up from there, to destroy the area around that joint, soon rendering it imobile yes except they would be short ranged and well they wouldnt go that far with an anti tank shell lodged up their[cabbage] Anti-tank shell would have a lot of trouble hitting one of those things.

Exactly how long have you been researching this? Considering that my MAASs look like this: I don't think Russia needs to really go through the research phase, since his look to be just a variation of my design. 50/50, we just meant for the designs to be atleast semi-humanoid, and those were only the rough plans we are basing our drones on, and we are still working on the interior mechanics and circuitry. but if germania wants to help us with any of that, itd be cool. lol I would just like to point out that they would be extremely vulnerable to rocket fire they are going to have measures to prevent rockets, hopefully. *shrug* So are your walkers Malaysia. Can't win 'em all. And yes, of course Germania will assist Russia.

Mount & Blade: You conquer castles and stuff!
There's new animations for weapon swings and whatnot, which is pretty hard to get used to (I'm still not - so I miss swings constantly), updated textures for some of the armours - brigadines aren't purple anymore, some other ones got updated. There's currently (I think) 4 or 5 maps that are playable, with servers rules that can be set like manual blocking and whatnot. Surprisingly enough, yea. There are some bugs that pop up every once in a while - crashes that have to do with the game not finding a skeleton mesh or something, as well as your body flying in the air when you die, which is pretty funny, but the servers are pretty stable. People's pings are extremely varied, though, but I suppose that's because there are a lot of international players that got invs to the Beta, while there are only servers on the east coast of NA that I know of. Most games are solely Player vs Player, which is extremely hard. A lot of people aren't using cavalry as well, since at first everyone was using it and it was a bit ridiculous. The inf will form up and guard the archers/crossbowmen, and use pikes to kill horsemen as they ride by. Quite fun.

Might want to change you Location. ;) Going to re-post my post from last page here, just in case anyone missed it: Oh of course. Really that much is overkill, but I like to have a nice buffer to dissuade against invasion. A lot of the recruits are coming from Germania's African territories, where there isn't very many job opportunities (working on that one), so the military is a very good option for full-time employment that grants you great benefits (full health and dental care, housing, food, etc). Oh and to Findenland: In case you missed my edit to one of my posts above: I'm willing to give you $10b, but no more. Considering you paid $50b as you claim for Tunisia, I think it's fair compensation considering you also get the aforementioned islands off the coast of Africa as well. Other Germanian news: Project Framework has been started, and aims to increase production capabilities all across Germanian lands, which should raise the overall GDP per capita by around $1000. Project Snow has also been started, with the aim to colonize the arctic isles and inner Greenland, which is possible now due to the drug that was developed on Haven. The research into a spray that would boost crop output by 300% is almost complete as well, and should be done in a years time. Germania has also started a project (not on Haven) with the aim of creating a new plant by taking different types of animal and plant DNA that could grow in tundra environments and be edible by humans. Hopefully the seeds will be ready for mass production sometime in the next 5 years. The new heavy artillery-tanks are coming along production nicely, and the first couple have been deployed in Inner Germania. They'll now be called Scorpions. (Oh haha I just remembered those are the Halo tanks as well #-o ) Germania has also made some improvements to its passive radar systems, and the detection rates for stealth aircraft is now around 70%. Germania is also in the middle of a big population boom, due to the improved quality of life and more leisure time for workers.

Research first. And where exactly would you be building this warship (space warship?)? Germanian news: More volunteers are flocking to the military, in anticipation of another war in Europe. Good advantage of a pagan religion that heavily emphasizes warfare :). Around a million more have joined the military, and are being rushed through training. This brings Germanian military strength to around 25 million active, plus at least 10 million in reserves.

Both seem fine to me. The only problem I have with Tinypic is that you cant upload a folder of pictures at once. Can you do that with imgur? No, but I've stopped using TinyPic since it started bugging out and redirecting image links to their frontpage.

I took Tunisia through diplomatic measures, so your whole argument is invalid. I will give you 10 billion, but nothing more. [hide=mars with Germania's new colony][/hide] ! I'm INTJ as well :thumbup:

Nothing is impossible! You just have to put your mind to it! :^o Alright I have a bit of an odd request. I'm curious as to what everyones Myers-Briggs personality type is, as I think you can correlate your type to how you run your country in this game. So, if you have the time, could you guys take the test here and post what type you got? Cheers.
