    NationStates

    For those that haven't heard of it,
    Jennifer Government: NationStates is a nation simulation game. You create your own country, fashioned after your own ideals, and care for its people. Either that or you deliberately torture them. It's really up to you.
    I've been checking mine every week or so for the past few months. I figure it'll be interesting to see how some of you rule. I created a region, Mindin, that those of you who are new or bored with your current region can join. If you already play, send Jeunin a telegram telling me who you are so I can add you to my dossier.

    Re: NationStates

    This isn't another one of those boring HTML-based fake-RTS games, is it (ispo ergo Tribal Wars, Travian . . . )? Because, you know, I hate RTS to begin with.

      RTS, no.

      It's HTML based, but basically all you do is select how to handle issues. Like, Abortion will come up, you'll decide whether to make it illegal,legal, and so on. Basically, act as a country's ruler. It is a bit wacky, though, can be funny at times.

      There is apparently a roleplaying element to it, but I just ignore the forums. As far as my gameplay is concerned, it doesn't matter if there are other countries or not.

        Hmm, sounds interesting.

        How much of a time-waster is it? Considering Time Mage hasn't been released, I can't exactly make any more time than I have now, so I can't really afford large time wasters.

        Speaking of Time Mage . . .

          Not all that much of a time waster. Few minutes a day for me.

            Re: NationStates

            yep. Probably ten minutes a day tops. Unless you get into the RP side, who knows how much people spend with that.

              Okay, then what's the URL? It sounds interesting, and I'll probably look in to it more.

                I've set up a nation called "Kingdom of Jarre" and so far have legalised cloning & Helped the auto industry.
