The Dark Lord

It was the only way to bring value back to my currency and create a universal Federation currency. So, I really have no choice. 100 pence = 1 dollar (broken down into five coins: 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p ["florin"], 50p ["eagle"] ) 2 half-pence = 1p Just some ideas I have at the moment. I'm still trying to name some denominations. Right now, I have issues with needing denominations smaller than a half-pence... If anyone is creative at naming coins, feel free to help.

Guys... The US Dollar is worthless. The Federation just adopted a universal currency for itself, based on gold standard. Archi can describe the global repercussions better than I can. Basically, the US tried to solve both the issues of not having a common currency and the fact that the Dollar was on a never-ending slippery slope in one go. As a consequence, it had severe global repercussions.

If you can afford them.

Tragedy Strikes the World Market Yup, that's right.

I'm just reminding everyone that Iran wishes to be an independent entity, and they had a revolution a few years back that placed a pro-Western government into power.

Owned.

I'm not good at the Fight Caves. When I had to kill the Ket-zek for the KAD, I was nervous and flustered and majorly sucked at trapping at the Italy rock. Considering I was a mess at wave 32, there was no way I would make it to Jad even though I was prepped for it. Fighting-type mini games such as this aren't fun for me and I play RS for fun. I don't need a cape to justify my existence. This. I'm nearly a maxed player, and I have an unreliable wireless connection on my laptop. Also, I'm the type of player that doesn't like getting nervous while I play, so I generally avoid PvP and boss hunting. You may wonder "Why the hell does he even play, then?!" Well, I play the game, but I play stuff that I enjoy (which also happens to not be PvP and boss hunting). Even though I have the levels and the knowledge to do these things, I just don't do them. Never have and never will. I play games to alleviate stress (not get stressed).

What? You want a woman giving the F22 a car wash while eating a cheeseburger? ---- @Lent: "Goddammit! Who the hell put the cluster bombs in here? I asked for a single, I repeat S-I-N-G-L-E, explosion!" They could have also been a bunch of Islamic extremists, and the military just somehow did something to set their vests off in unison.

When he tells you that again, point an infrared camera at him to see if he's lying. To be honest, I think girls are confusing. Whur 2 buy cam? No seriously, if he's being serious, this will be interesting. EXPERIMENT TAIM Just ask him if he agrees with Clinton's policy of NAFTA and start a little political debate. Small talk helps a lot, no matter what it is. Seriously, talk about the weather or something. Of course, if he's some douche that's lying about liking you for some private laughs, then you may have some problems. Of course, men are more blunt about stuff like this, so he's probably telling the truth. Also, men like to feel safe, so put your arm around him and let him lay his head on your shoulder.

When he tells you that again, point an infrared camera at him to see if he's lying. To be honest, I think girls are confusing. You may get a girl that starts flirting with you, and then she writes her phone number on your notebook without you asking and draws a little heart or smiley face beside it and tells you to call her. Then when you call her, she talks about visiting her boyfriend over the weekend and then talks to you like a friend instead of all the flirty stuff. They'll also wonder why a guy doesn't date them when they've "dropped hints". ALL OF THEIR CUES ARE THE [bleep]ING SAME! Gah!

With all the Human races in the World there are 5 different types of Human skulls in the world each belonging to a different Race and they are very different. But they do not teach this in school, nor are you allowed to talk about it... So it already happens. And did you know that if a Native Australian lives on Western food and lifestyle they will only live to 40 because their body rejects it. Your first point is total crap... there is just no significant difference in skull shape between different races. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craniofacial_anthropometry Obviously, it depends on your definition of "significant". However, it's apparently different enough for archaeologists to determine someone's race. It's also perfectly sound with the theory of evolution. People develop different traits over long periods of time through isolation. This isolation will obviously lead to varied gene pools among people groups. It's not crap, and there's nothing wrong with it.

Screw all of y'all! The F-22 is the best! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_Q6Vb9xJM0 The Exosuit is also not that bad, either. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0X1vyWU6bw

This video pretty much sums up my thoughts on the issue: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6NfXk7Bvc8&feature=related The US Dollar seems to be on a never-ending path of devaluation while we're on the flat money system. Your thoughts?

The Federation is working on a new standard assault rifle.

The motto "United, We Stand; Divided, We Fall" has been accepted as the official Federation motto. Also, here's a symbol that I want, but it has words written over it. (I am not ripping everything off Starship Troopers; I'm just taking some ideas from it. Although, I do like the symbol.) I also need a cool looking eagle emblem that doesn't look like the Third Reich eagle but looks similar as far as the eagle's pose is concerned (preferably not the Austrian national symbol or any double-headed eagles). :unsure: EDIT: There I go.

It's a Good Day to Die is a song that has been adopted as a patriotic song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5sANHYp_IQ&feature=related

Archi--- I wasn't trying to be an arse, but I just think that there should be a clear distinction since the United Kingdom didn't exist at that time. In my opinion, it would be like calling the colonists in the British American colonies US citizens before the Revolutionary War, or, in Hegemony's case, calling Canadians Americans before Canada was annexed by the Union. Also, I am in a little bit of an irritable mood, so that may be coming out a little bit. If so, I'm sorry.

He was English --- long before the Acts of Union.

These ideas are the basic foundation for the History of Moral Philosophy course; it allows high school students to debate among one another and discuss various social philosophies without fear of being looked down on by society for studying controversial subjects. As for civilian society, it isn't a police state. The only major changes are the prison reforms (reinstatement of the death penalty, abolition of the Three Strike rule and mandatory minimums, etc). As for the military, these punishments are necessary in order to maintain discipline before the eyes of the Enemy. They have always been a reality of the US military throughout its history, and people are educated about the military code of law before they sign up for the military. Only a fool would commit these crimes. Also, psychological evaluations are conducted before hearings that will likely involve an execution afterward in order to weed out the people that are suffering from a mental ailment. Those who are found to not be mentally competent are of course spared. However, if a person starts going berserk and starts to shoot up their fellow men, then they will be shot on the spot. There's really nothing you can do in that situation but to put them down since they are only an endangerment to both themselves and their comrades.

Which is the main reason why Stevenson is controversial... Although the Military defines "cruel and unusual" in a different light, civilian criminals are executed via the standard lethal injection. And for the record, the military still maintains the practice of execution in real life, which includes the following offenses: Currently, under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, 14 offenses are punishable by death. Under the following sections of the UCMJ, the death penalty can be imposed at any time: * 94 - Mutiny or sedition * 99 - Misbehavior before the enemy * 100 - Subordinate compelling surrender * 101 - Improper use of countersign * 102 - Forcing a safeguard * 104 - Aiding the enemy * 106a - Espionage * 110 - Improper hazarding of vessel * 118 - Murder * 120 - Rape and carnal knowledge Four provisions of the UCMJ carry a death sentence only if the crime is committed during times of war: * 85 - Desertion * 90 - Assaulting or willfully disobeying a superior commissioned officer * 106 - Spies * 113 - Misbehavior of a sentinel or lookout Likewise, there is a grace period after a soldier signs up for the military in which they can abandon the military and not be charged for desertion. This weeds out those who don't have what it takes to be a Soldier and saves the Army money.

Senator Stevenson (NAP) has announced his plans to run for President for the 2020 Election. For those who don't know anything about Sen. Stevenson, he advocates harsher punishment for criminal activity. Although a controversial man, people do agree that criminals seem to get away with things too easily. Among the punishments that he advocates, he advocates flogging of criminals who commit certain crimes (depending on the severity). He believes that unusual punishments (without going too far) is the only way to deter would-be criminals. Executions have been commonplace in the military for certain crimes such as murders while on active duty. This popular practice was justified by stating that General Washington sometimes punished his men by executing them if they committed a severe offense. ----------------------------------- A human rights group that has tried to ban spanking has brought its case before the Supreme Court. After several days, the Supreme Court ruled that "Spanking is neither a human rights violation, nor does it harm a child both mentally and physically." If a person is drafted in the future, they may pay a fee in their place that will go toward buying field rations and ammunition.

Spyker, a Dutch-based car company, has been recreated and is offering a new line of environmentally-friendly and affordable cars on the European market. Due to the regime placed by Japanese algae fuel (which is required for using Japanese cars), the United States has cut off deals with Toyota-Honda and is looking toward investing solely in the European car market.

That's still stupid as hell. Also, you should have experienced some kind of economic cataclysm considering that Japan would have to cut out all of the nice things that they are spending on in order to facilitate massive military spending. My military spending is supposedly a little over $1 trillion, so good luck spending around $1-2 tril and slashing everything else. Not to mention that your soldiers aren't very trained and aren't really competitive with other militaries whatsoever. ---------------- @Rocco: Technically Dungeonal can invade Egypt if he wants to. Are you gonna go to war with him over it? @Everyone else: You're all being douchebags and will have to suffer severe repercussions for this "annex-fest". @Archi: There's no way that those African warlords could have conquered half of a continent that quickly. :roll: ------------- I agree.
