Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted January 6, 2003 Ha! The Issue National marijuana consumption has hit an all-time high, with alarming results, a new poll has found. The Debate 1) "My factory's productivity is down ten percent since marijuana was decriminalized," complains employer Chastity Hanover. "And the number of thefts from the candy machine is off the scale. This so-called 'pot' needs to be banned in all public places. Let the junkies do what they want at home, but not in my workplace." 2) "Whoa, dude, no need to get, like, you know," says Free Your Mind campaigner Pip Dredd, from his parents' basement. "This is, like, a personal choice issue, you know. It's like... whoa, just back off what I want to do with my own body. Don't let the fascists win, man. There are some hot new eckies coming in soon, they should be legal too." Sorry, dude, choice #1 is going into effect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted January 6, 2003 Well, I did legalize marijuana, so I should have seen this coming. Oh well, a few bad apples have to ruin it for the rest of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Electrifyer Report post Posted January 6, 2003 I also chose option one for that issue. My favourite issue, though, was the nudist one, it made my country the most nude one in the TSM region. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest KingOfOldSchool Report post Posted January 6, 2003 Well, Larry Hagman has turned into a Corporate Police State, from the Consumerist Iron Fist nation it once was, but here's the odd quote in my latest update-- "Military spending is on the increase, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and marijuana is legal in the privacy of your own home." All because I denied a Nazi request for a public rally, but said tv executives could do whatever they wanted with their own shows, specifically not having to live up to quotas on minorities in shows.

Guest RobJohnstone Report post Posted January 6, 2003 I am not happy, it says my country has few civil rights. I only made one decision. I let the nazi's have a rallyt o show I allow freedom of speech, yet civil rights are low. Bullshit --Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest KingOfOldSchool Report post Posted January 6, 2003 I got the Harry Potter question, and decided to let the books have their place. "Whats the Harry Potter one?" Where you grant a request, to ban Harry Potter books, or allow them to stay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest KanadianKrusty Report post Posted January 6, 2003 Well I just banned cars, it was either that or ban bicycles or give more money to cars manufacturers, so now I'm mining uranium to make some sort of super-weapon and I don't have a single fucking car....

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted January 6, 2003 Each region gets a World Factbook Entry, to give an idea of what our region is like to the outside world. As our regions UN Delegate, I'm the guy who writes it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest RobJohnstone Report post Posted January 6, 2003 well,let me get used to playing this and I will get back to you. Does it matter that i chose not to be a member of the UN? --Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted January 6, 2003 If you become a UN member, you get to vote on resolutions and such, as well as influence the world with your own agenda, but at the same time your country has to abide by all UN regulations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Electrifyer Report post Posted January 6, 2003 Write the factbook with lots of words like "holding down", "glass ceiling", "pushes", "jobs", "heels/face", etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest RobJohnstone Report post Posted January 6, 2003 I know, but it against my countrys constitution, as well as the usa's constitution to let other countries decide how we run ours. That is why I did not join, and why I don't believe in the UN irl. --Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest TheArchiteck Report post Posted January 6, 2003 Hah, nudist wanted to roam free here too. I had to ban that bullshit....or did I dismiss it? hmmm..

Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted January 6, 2003 Write the factbook with lots of words like "holding down", "glass ceiling", "pushes", "jobs", "heels/face", etc. Make sure to state very clearly that the server is "holding us down" (e.g. I've had two issues all day it wouldn't let me load). And refer to one of our leaders as "kookier than the Ultimate Warrior" or something like that. Just make sure no other nation can pick through all the inside references.

Guest The Electrifyer Report post Posted January 7, 2003 Hehehehe... I just passed a bill that allows people to sell there vital organs to hospitals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest hardyz1 Report post Posted January 7, 2003 I got the Harry Potter book issue twice. I stuck it to those religious bastards both times. The thing that pisses me off is that the options on a few issues are all bad and I have to dismiss it when I know there's a better solution. Like today I got one where the workers of my top industry, Furniture Restoration, demand a 20% raise over two years, and I can either give it to them, or relax industry rules so the companies can fire troublemakers. I'd rather just give them a smaller raise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TheArchiteck Report post Posted January 7, 2003 I just got that one too Hardyz. I just settled and gave them raise. Hope they don't think i'm getting soft or i'll have to become an authoritarian again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted January 7, 2003 Hehehehe... I just passed a bill that allows people to sell there vital organs to hospitals. That was my 1st issue. Of course, I passed it.
