RMB moments of the month - June 2019

[Karputsk]

As mentioned previously, I'm looking to organise a competition for RMB moment of the month. The competition will be conducted through a poll gameside in July.

This is a topic for us to post any comments, threads etc from the regional message board that you think were funny, poignant or stand out otherwise. The period this topic covers will be June.

[Sarah]

Is it open to anyone, or like people not in the government?

I know in Osiris they do "RMB contributor of the month" but it's not open to people in that Gov service. I just wanna make sure before I share things unneeded.

[Karputsk]

Open to anyone!

[Catalyse]

The winner should always be my monthly appearance on the rmb.

[frattastan]

The winner should always be my monthly appearance on the rmb.

No.

[Manson]

I nominate this. Bluefart is pretty funny!

I think that this will stand out as the RMB moment of this month, or perhaps even this year.

[Karputsk]

Better than any of your contributions I suppose.

I've been through 60 pages for this.

Did they actually try to invade the rejected realm? That seems impossible to me

It's relatively easy with a simple trick: if you are the delegate of another region and have more endorsements than the TRR delegate you can eject all your endorsers and move to TRR. We were invaded four times this way (although it's very hard to make it last, because TRR can call its allies, etc.). It was a bit easier in the past because we had a lot less endorsements, of course.

In this specific case, in February 2012 The New Inquisition raided another region and build up enough endorsements from various supporting regions (including the LKE) until they had enough to take over TRR.

While most supporting regions were used unwittingly for the invasion, the leaderships of both TNI and the LKE were aware of the plan. The invader, using the nation Oud-Heverlee Leuven, was the LKE Emperor of the time (and also a leading TNI official). While the raid itself only lasted twelve hours, the LKE kept mentioning it as a major 'achievement', so it's pretty stupid that now they would pretend it was done only by the Emperor "in a personal capacity".

Guys my region was taken from me what do I do to get it back?????

You are the region's founder, so you always have absolute control over the region.
(1) Unban yourself from the regional admin page.
(2) Move back to your region.
(3) Remove all powers from the WA delegate position, including 'Executive'.

I endorse almost all people in the region for increasing regional global influence and all of the region sahould do the same

It's a game feature that limits some delegate actions (ejecting/banning nations and passwording the region) depending on the amount of "influence" they have in the region (calculated from time spent in the region + endorsements held). Both of those actions are impossible in TRR, which means that influence is meaningless here.
While encouraging everyone to endorse everyone else might be beneficial elsewhere - some of the Pacifics do it - that's not the case when influence doesn't matter.

Also, there is no "regional global influence". It's just "regional influence". It matters only inside the region (and here it doesn't even matter inside it) and cannot be carried over elsewhere.

He’s our centre-half, he’s our number four, watch him defend and we watch him score.

He can pass the ball, calm as you like, he’s Virgil van Dijk, he’s Virgil van Dijk!

When illusion spin her net
I'm never where I want to be
And liberty, she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by empty silhouette
Who close their eyes but still can see
No one taught them etiquette
I will show another me
Today I don't need a replacement
I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going boom, boom, boom
"Hey, " I said, "You can keep my things
They've come to take me home"

Everyone should boycott this poll. I asked for Karputsk to include a cookie dough option and they did not despite saying they would.

This pollster is a lier and a cookie fraud

TODAY'S QUESTION OF THE DAY!

What’s your cure for hiccups?

It's a bit inappropriate... but scientifically sound. Consider this a parental guidance warning.

Spoiler: click to toggle

Dr Francis M Fesmire, upon noting that "The rectum is supplied with an abundance of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves,... [successfully administered] digital rectal massage [of which] lead to increased vagal tone" and cured "his patient who'd been hiccupping for at a rate of 30 per minute for some 72 hours."

---

"Sensation from the rectum travels through these parasympathetic nerves — and they are very sensitive to pressure.

"After reading this report, Dr Odeh from the Bnai Zion Medical Center in Haifa, in Israel found that this same technique worked to fix the hiccups of a 60-year-old man with acute pancreatitis. He then went on to use this technique successfully in five other patients with intractable hiccups.

"In 2006, Dr Fesmire was honoured for his discovery with the IgNobel Prize in Medicine at a ceremony at Harvard in Boston.

"He later told the New Scientist magazine of another treatment likely to be more popular with the hiccuping patients. "An orgasm results in incredible stimulation of the vagus nerve. From now on, I will be recommending sex — culminating with orgasm — as the cure-all for intractable hiccups.""

SMH, Has karp been a bad influence on you already? :-o

They are a truthseer and truthspeaker and truthadministerer, and you mustn't be so quick to denounce them so.

Has anyone seen any good butts today?

My extremely bad attempt at derailing a Blueflarst and Russia and Europe fight on the RMB: https://www.nationstates.net/page=rmb/postid=35583097

In the bible, God created the rainbow as a promise to the people to never make a Deluge again. So it is a symbol of hope.
I find it very fitting for all of humanity. Because all colours are part of the white light. Like all people are part of humanity.

Edit: I saw a great butt!! And I could even legally fondle it! My spouses.

Thepeople going from 0-100mph within one RMB post, very impressive: https://www.nationstates.net/page=rmb/postid=35583644

The last thing you guys wanna do is make the bread mad

Goooood morning, Rejects! <3
Grab your pillows, y'all

TODAY'S QUESTION OF THE DAY!

It's a pillow fight between the Rejected Realms and Osiris!!! Who will win??

Osiris. I'm only good at knife fights, sorry.

Fratt showing Osiris what's up:

I choose to believe that Not to Fret abandoned us to defect towards a foreign power, and this is a disgrace.

I know! I know. I'm sorry that was not intentional sobs

The deletion of the poll won't be either.

Everyone should vote for Tiger Bread as an act of patriotism in recognition of this great betrayal.

Your appearance and posting style is very similar to our recently departed officer Not to Fret, you know. I am convinced that something weird is going on. Don't know what yet, but I will find out.

You sound like Sedge before meeting CG. Maybe love will change you too eventually.

Are you asking me on a date?

No.

You're sarcasm isn't helping. >_>

B-b-but sarcasm is the best multi-purpose tool around! ;-;

You can always get deleted. Or puppetswept.

Warned for trolling.

Waddup n-words, after a week-long RMB ban, it's your offensive boi Russia and Europe, with today's question of the day!
Is Blueflarst a virgin?

Greetings.

Now it's a three week RMB ban, and your next one will lead to your nation's deletion.

Have a fabulous 4th of July holiday.

Frattastan is right the women in the media are portrayed as sexual objects for the pleasure of degenerate people

You can't handle a single Finnish insult word?
You're weaker than Donald Trump.

That is. You're grounded until you apologise to your brother.

You asked me to. I thought we were friends, and you come in public to slander and accuse me. Hmpf.

Is this the kind of people you want as an RRA officer [nation]Frattastan IV?[/nation]

Playing the victim as usual, smh. Maybe Fratt just likes me better, did that ever occur to you?

Stop it, you two will make me sad. :<

Who will lose in a fight between Cat and Karp? Fratt, of course: https://www.nationstates.net/page=rmb/postid=35689386

It's because he was double posting, I believe.

Believing in things is exactly what got you banned from Balder. You should stop doing that before you get in trouble for believing things here too!

cries and gets hit by a bus

"And that's how A Leaf on the Wind died, no I'm totally kidding but she was hurt. Some people say the bus meant to hit her, but that was just a rumour. Other people said that 'I' pushed her. That was an even worse rumour."
