  1. Someone who is allowed for some other reason to be there could do the recruiting or alternatively citizens could be recruited on their holidays elsewhere and when they return .... Some measures will make spying on your secret projects harder like only recruiting loyal members of the ruling elite as your staff for these projects, but this will seriously limit the pool of potential talent you have to choose from and make for slower progress on projects. You sacrifice speed for security on a project in this case. Your immigration control law is also a good idea and would reduce the chances of success of any potential spy ring setting up but it would only make it harder for one to establish itself, it still could be done by someone with a reasonably good plan. But I agree nobody is totally immune from spys and there will always be a way for someone to get a "man on the inside" of a project and all anyone can do is make it hard (but not impossible) for them to do so. But I personally choose not to perform spy ops in CNRP since this would give away a stat that is best kept hidden for various reasons.
  2. There is a way around the whole infiltrating a spy into an ethnically homogeneous society, You bring in a spymaster into the country and recruit some disaffected locals or bribe some greedy local in the area you want to check out to do all the actual legwork. Then the spymaster sits back in the embassy as a cultural attaché or some such thing and coordinates his local spys. That is how it is actually done in RL a lot of the time. So nobody is totally immune to spys unless you want to be totally isolationist with no embassies and closed borders.
  3. Dear Field Marshal Malan, We both have problems that I believe can cancel each other out, I have a chronic shortage of labour for my construction industry and you have a portion of your populace you do not want, namely the non-Caucasians. I propose a solution to both our problems, I will accept any people who wish to leave your nation into the Novus Niciae when it reforms as citizens and have them work for me as employees of the Olympic Corporation and I will get the employees I need and you will further your goals of achieving the population balance you desire in a simple and easy manner with few if any negative political ramifications when compared to the other potential solutions to this problem. Regards Prime Minister Abigail Johns CEO Olympic Corporation Director of the Novus Niciae Project
  4. I took a devastating loss of stats when I started CNRP again after I rejoined and I am taking another devastating loss since I have to reroll due to the war. BUT I have not found this to be an impediment to my RP at all, In fact it opened up new storylines for me than I had before. I was stagnating with my original nation and I was rapidly running out of ideas then by getting devastated I got given a million and one potential new stories I could explore as I regrow. Perhaps people ought to take their lumps in CNRP and accept that they are smaller and have more potential stories as the payoff. RP a few disasters and such and have some fun, your nation will have a more interesting history as a result.
  5. I RPed the destruction of my nation from the current IG war as a killer plague that decimated my population in CNRP since I could not get in in time to save my stats so I had to RP a series of disasters to explain the death of 98% of my people. And I had great fun doing it and I will have just as much fun explaining the recovery of my nation as I rebuild in CNRP. A hellish run of bad luck will be balanced with a period of charmed good fortune. I like to RP and I can find story potential in any situation be it good or bad.
  6. I have no great desire to be someone else's puppet. I will take the little bit of white land I can and be free to play however I please rather than having to ask permission to do anything.
  7. My new nation shall be a continuation of my current storyline and it will develop in what seems to me to be a logical unfolding of events. There will be changes, A nation that has lost 98% of its population and has to repopulate with immigrants will experience change but this change will reflect the changing events across CNRP. Novus Niciae is my old nation and is one and the same as Neo Olympia and the Olympic Corporation. But considering the results of this poll I will probably return to using Novus Niciae as my nation name. And I will return to using Prime Minister Johns as my ruler name since General Markov is dead and it makes no sense to keep using that name. And besides my IRC name on CN channels has always been Prime Minister Johns[insert Alliance Acronym Here] and I want to make my IRC name and IG names match up again.
  8. ES without a doubt. Morgar is funny but he lacks Electron sponge's class. And I have never been subjected to the humor of Mpol or Steampoweredhitler. We need Mpol to crack some more funnies in public channels for our collective amusement. And I did not know about Steampoweredhitler at all until now so he needs to get out more as well.
  9. I wish to state here for the record that my upcoming reroll will be a continuation of my existing storyline and in accordance with the OP's guidelines I am inheriting all of its stuff.
  10. Press release from the Olympic Corporation The Olympic Corporation has sent some agents out to a small island just off shore of the middle east to assess its potential as a site for the people of Neo Olympia to settle and retain their culture. Initial reports are promising with only a few friendly local inhabitants on this sparsely inhabited island and they seem to welcome the idea of their island being developed as a national capital and a world centre for commerce. Agents are also investigating various undeveloped sites in east Africa for their potential as sites for the new capital.
  11. It also makes finding some scrap of land that is unclaimed for me to enter the game and not be a puppet state a challenging experience.
  12. In case you have not noticed white space on the map is a rare commodity. Soon CNRP will be full of a few players with globe spanning mega-empires. There should be a upper limit on the amount of land you can claim or CNRP will stagnate and die as it is reduced to a few big players. And then with no RP, everyone loses and nobody wins. The options for a new player now are these. 1: Become a puppet of some other player and have them dictate the way you RP in exchange for land. 2: Claim some undesirable corner of the map like Antarctica or some area that is a radioactive wasteland from a previous war and have difficulties with the extreme climates of these areas. 3: Play a "non-canon" RP and have people refuse to recognise it. We need to have more open land on the map so a stricter system of SoI would encourage a greater player base for CNRP and a much more interesting game for everyone.
  13. As you are no doubt aware I am rerolling my nation (again, semi-forced this time) and I want to get some ideas for future RP developments to keep my RP interesting for the comming months and hopefully years. (I do not intend to reroll again, ever, once this nation is gone I am gone) I have made a short list of the names I am considering for my reroll. it is by no means a exhaustive list and if you have other suggestions I am open to them provided that you explain your suggestion and how it can improve my story. These are the names I am considering. Neo Olympia (My current nations name) Novus Niciae (My original nations name) The Olympic Corporation (The form my nation is currently in as a holding pattern while I wait to delete and reroll) If you can think of a better name and a reason why I should take it then there shall be cake for you.
  14. Join the GPA, it is the logical choice. They are one of the few alliances that are completely untouched by the KARMA war and will have the funding to provide economic growth programs for their members without having to spend money on rebuilding.
  15. I was a neutral for some time, but the events leading up to the war on peace made me reconsider my position and I moved before the war. I had a wonderful time in the GPA and I view them as easily being one of the best alliances in terms of economic mastery of the game.
