Is this really what would have happened? Some of these stories stretch my suspension of disblief.

Become a GM, then.

Same here. It's totally unrealistic and the foundations were not laid well at all. But the mods have spoken

Regardless of the personal beliefs of the GM team it would be unrealistic for people to vote against such a large stipend, snowmobiles, and housing. Whether current and future developments will cause a change in viewpoints will be seen.

You think it’s completely unrealistic for people to vote against becoming part of a completely separate country they have no cultural connection to and don’t even use the operative language of, simply because they are being offered snowmobiles?

It’s actually comical. This GM team’s idea of ‘realism’ is to unilaterally declare that Ukrainians are Nazis and Greenlanders are dying to be colonized by Atlasia. One year ago, a proposed deal involving Taiwan was considered so unrealistic that we created emergency powers to reverse those edicts (powers which, since then, have already been flagrantly abused for the sake of convenience). But we’re supposed to be okay with this?

For years, this game had Game Moderators who went to great lengths to ensure foreign policy in this game was a realistic, playable simulation. I don’t know why the current team insists on repeatedly spitting in the face of their legacy.

Sometimes, people do have different ideas of what is and isn’t realistic. The South did offer every material thing that Greenlanders are seeking according to many polls. Whether that alone is enough id it’s own debate, we chose one side but understand your skepticism. I will say…if something seems off and weird though…maybe there is a deeper reason for it as well.

Stay tuned.

Well, you see, it isn't realistic for anything to happen unless it's the South being completely razed to the ground through the divine will of God, with every man, woman, and child being killed and every conservative in the country, meanwhile, spontaneously bursting into flames.

Remind me never to vote for you again.

My comment was in defense of the GM Team? It was a sarcastic comment about what Labor would consider fair.

Such an objective supreme court justice.

Fairly sure I'm still allowed to have opinions on the state of the game. When have I ever said anything about any legal issues? It's not like I'm arguing any legislative policy or anything here.

The game now has gone to sh**t. I don't think literally anyone would dispute that. And it's the cumulative fault of almost everyone involved.

How so?

The offer is better for the vast majority of Greenlanders than the status quo or independence. Rational actors would choose the option if you dont view them through the racist lens of the "noble savage".

Except Greenland, both IRL and in game, has repeatedly elected Inuit Ataqatigiit to government on the main policy of blocking new mining. Almost as if many voters value culture more than cold hard cash!

I don't know if GMs posted figures before for Greenland elections specifically but they won 37% last time IRL. A plurality, but far from a majority alone.

And they're in government thanks to their coalition partner Naleraq who also oppose new mining projects. In an election campaign framed by all parties as a referendum on the rare earths mine.
Also important to note, when Trump raised the issue every single party in parliament opposed it outright! There's no reason they'd magically change their mind just because YT says pretty please, cultural preservation and gradual self-sufficiency is of utmost importance to Greenland.

Atlasia, though, is significantly to the left of the U.S. IOTL and Cao, who the deal was struck under, is not Trump by any means.

Who decides how GM stories are created? And what the results are?

It feels extremely biased.

IA losing 10% for "foreign interference" makes no sense for several reasons, most importantly Greenland is Atlasian today. So there's no foreign interference, it's ours. If i'm not even able to walk in my own country again... it's not unheard of American politicians all over the country travelling to Iowa for some reason. Unless some people have been pressuring the game moderators again... who knows.

The good news stories are always for the same people and stories and the bad news stories are also for the same people over & over again.

Why people would "mock me" specifically also is a question but it feels more like game moderators "mocking me" instead of The Peruvians doing so. I just have to say that I can't really appreciate this, and that my trust in the team esp. for being non-biased and independent and able to function without outside pressure is at an all-time low (given the YT logs). If it happened before, why couldn't it happen again.

I disagree. And as for Peru, it was your bill to try to extradite Castillo here, no?

[West_Midlander]

Out of curiosity, is the military bases-Philippines situation based on RL events or no?

Thanks.
