Really fun semi-online game, it's basically about creating your own country and running it. Pretty addictive but it gets a little old after a few weeks but hey it's free

Check it out why don't ya! And have a nice day.

I was playing it till the evil proxy server at work started blocking it

Also the book 'Jennifer Government' is a great sci fi read [img]smile.gif[/img]

I used to play it but get bored with it. I reckon my country would have been deleted by now.

Long time no see Regin. As long as you haven't yet dropped back into lurk mode, how're things? All well in the land of blonde virgins?

Hehehe Its a fun game, but the multi-player side of it needs to be better moderated. I enjoyed running my Nation, The Freeland of Grokalina, but after about six weeks the issues run out and repeat themselves. Some of those issues are quite humorous.

BTW The guy who made it is working on a pay-to-play sequel IIRC.

The Fiefdom of Horrible Body Odour

The Fiefdom of Horrible Body Odour is a tiny, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 5 million are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whoever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government devotes most of its attentions to Social Welfare, with areas such as Law & Order and Religion & Spirituality receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 36%, but much higher for the wealthy. A very small private sector is dominated by the Retail industry.

Crime is well under control. Horrible Body Odour's national animal is the hairless rat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the doubloon.

I played my nation The Principality of Rainbows and Bunnies up until a few days ago when I hit 1 billion bunnies. Like Chewbacca said, if there were more issues it would be more fun because you just start recycling them after a while.
