All we know is that she's called the Silly String. Er, hang on. She might be called Astarial. We're not quite sure This is the thread where you can ask the Queen of the North Pacific herself, Empress of Warzone Europe, whatever questions may take your interest. And also whatever boring questions you may have. Hey, I don't have to answer them, this one's on Asta.

Oh, I think a certain Kingdom could use some good old Astarialn love. Syrixia Dec 6 2015, 12:15 AM I challenge you to a duel. Fite me m8, empress vs tsar. What say you? As the challenger, you may choose the time and place. As the challenged, I have the right to choose the weapon - and I choose the fearsome Legislative Proposals. Simply tell me when and where and we will meet in the halls and the chambers and battle it out with our documents and directives and regulations.

Democracy is a farce. But if you insist, I shall duel you with these...proposals. We'll fight, right now, in the Corrupt a Law thread. Winner take all. En garde!

That way, "you" make it seem "scary", as if it is "not" what it "appears" to be. An "excellent" example is in the following "sentence": I will "give" him a big "hug" for that "nice" thing he did. Do "I" use "glitter" and "huggles"? Of "course".

You're known throughout many regions in NS, and you've a great history of putting in an excellent work ethic wherever you go. My question is, what attracted you to TNP out of all the other regions? And before you came to TNP, where were you in terms of regions? Edited by Tomb, Dec 7 2015, 11:44 PM.

Posts: 46 Group: Admins Member #2 Joined: Nov 1, 2015	Tomb Dec 7 2015, 11:23 PM Hey Asta, I've always wondered this but never got the chance to ask. You're known throughout many regions in NS, and you've a great history of putting in an excellent work ethic wherever you go. My question is, what attracted you to TNP out of all the other regions? And before you came to TNP, where were you in terms of regions? That is a somewhat long and amusing story. I started hanging around the TNP IRC channel many years ago. I was not a citizen, but I liked the people there and I liked how active it was... and I liked teasing TNP about its constitution, laws, judiciary, coups, and so on. Back in 2012, when I returned to NS from a few years of mostly inactivity, I did pretty much the same thing. TNP was still regarded as the most coup-prone GCR, and the court was still a laughingstock, and the laws were still in dire need of improvement. A few people tried to convince me to join TNP as a citizen, but I refused because Govindia was a citizen and I was not interested in participating in a region where he was. Lo and behold, Govindia was eventually banned, but I still resisted - I was getting involved in Osiris, didn't want to spread myself too thin, and wasn't really sure I wanted to be in TNP. But then COE contacted me on IRC and ~~asked~~ ~~begged~~ insisted that I become a citizen so that I could be his deputy speaker. He simply gave me no rest until I agreed... and the rest is history! Before TNP, I was largely active in Equilism. I had a few stints elsewhere - Nasicournia for a bit, a couple other smaller regions, Warzone Europe, Osiris for a little while and then again for a longer while, and the ADN, UDL, and FRA. Of these, I am still active in TNP and Equilism, and play an oversight/advisory role in WZE. Apulita Dec 8 2015, 02:11 AM On a scale of 10 to 10, how satisfied are you with the Dominion in Warzone Europe? Clearly the answer is 10. Felis Dec 8 2015, 02:12 AM What's your favourite region, that you are not a citizen in? That is a difficult question! I'm going to get both love and hate for this, but I'd say the answer is Europeia - it's the one I've most often considered joining. plembobria Dec 8 2015, 03:29 PM Would you like that fried? Yes please. McMasterdonia Dec 8 2015, 05:30 PM What is your favourite television show and why? I don't really have an answer to that - there are a ton of good ones. I'm currently binge-watching The Office, The Walking Dead, MAS*H, and Orange is the New Black. I also keep relatively up to date on MLP (duh!) and the three NCISes (though I admit three is a little excessive on the producers' parts). I really should catch up on House of Cards, Homeland, Game of Thrones, The Blacklist, Modern Family, The Big Bang Theory, and several others. All-time favorites, shows I will watch over and over again because damn they are good, are Firefly and The West Wing. Quote: If you had to coup a GCR, which one would you pick and why? From where I am now? Probably TRR, because I can give myself almost 700 endorsements to get there. I really wanted to give a detailed explanation based on current security realities, but unfortunately I just don't have that data at my fingertips and I can't find Elu to get it. The summary is that based on endorsement and influence rates, TNP would be the absolute worst choice to coup by any method. You simply cannot hold it without a huge amount of support, and there's too much tech keeping an eye on everyone to sneak a bunch of people in. The others all have their plusses and minuses, depending on how exactly I go about my coup.
