Remove the no orders/saved/ready icons
There are 10 minutes to go and still !! is shown next to a country. It's probably going to NMR. This allows countries around it to make moves that they normally wouldn't confident that the sensible supports and moves to SCs won't take place. Which unbalances the game.

If the icons were removed then it is less obvious that an NMR is about to happen. Is there a reason for the icons that I'm missing?

CD vs NMR
I'm looking at my CD's and NMR's, and I noticed that in one game that I had a Civil Disorder, it gave me 12 NMR's, another CD 3 NMR's, and then the rest of my CD's I have 0 NMR's. Can anyone explain how this works and why there's such a huge discrepancy on this? And is this also a "double jeopardy" against my Reliability Rating to count NMR's and CD's from the same game? This part has always confused me. Thanks!

New Zealand has a new Prime Minister
Labour did a full coalition deal with our weird centrist version of UKIP, so that'll be interesting. Greens to make up the numbers with confidence and supply in exchange for policy concessions and ministers outside of cabinet. I for one am cautiously optimistic about the coalition of chaos.

I'm interested to know what theories people believe in. I've been recently having discussions with people who believe some crazy things, so I'm interested to hear what people believe or don't and why.

Oh, subscribe to? Dammit, I just wanted to list conspiracy theories I thought were funny. I guess I’ll find solace in knowing about the lizard people, even though that’s not a conspiracy theory.

I have loved Illuminati conspiracy theories ever since I read the Illuminatus trilogy in high school. I hunted down a picture of Adam Weishaupt in the pre internet days. One of my treasured possessions is the magazine about the Illuminati I got from the crazy John Birchers outside the Mesa library in 1995.

Having said that... I think almost every conspiracy theory is BS. Conspiracy theories are for people who can’t handle the sloppy randomness that is life.

Moon landing was real, although if the mission was a failure, they were considering faking it to keep patriotism up.
The Illuminati kind of, but not in the sense of a secret one world government, but that powerful people are secretly pulling the strings in many places. Big oil, big pharma, and the bankers are some of them.
Most of the mainstream media is funded by the same powerful people.
Russians aren't the bad guys behind everything despite what the mainstream media propaganda wants you to think, Villainizing a different country is the same trick they've always been using.
Haven't figured out what to think about GMOs yet.
Climate change is happening but most of the hysteria around it is ill-informed and a lot of politicians are using it to gain more power and their solutions aren't actually going to help anything.
9/11's official story doesn't add up with reality. Dunno why they can't just give an official story that makes sense. Such a tragedy.
The holocaust happened and it's terrifying, but it's not a unique occurrence in history.
The western establishment has spent decades destabilizing the middle-east and ticking off the people who live there by killing their families, so the people there (who happen to be muslims) are now pretty upset at America.
Aliens very obviously exist. I could go more in depth on this one but it probably deserves a separate thread.
Planet x? Is this the theory that the astroid belt used to be a planet and got destroyed by planet x? Dunno much about this one.
Vaccines work great and are wonderful in theory. But there's a lot of corruption in the industry so look at each vaccine case-by-case. Most are good, but a few had not been researched well enough at all before being given the go ahead to insert into people's bodies.
Chemtrails: google Agent Orange. and others
Flat earth lol
Obama who cares dunno
Deep state. See Illuminati.
Fluoride is toxic. What's the point of putting it in our water? We get enough to keep our teeth clean from our toothpaste. (But I haven't looked into this one that much to be fair)

I believe in the Russian meddling in our election.
Aliens exist, whether the US has made contact is not something I speculate but aliens do exist.
Ancient civilizations had much better technology than credited and I believe it possible that the human story involves alien intervention but more likely that we simply have not recorded millennia of human development.

I believe there is more to the JFK assassination but once it is discovered I think a statute of limitations should apply to our anger and response. If we discover that France orchestrated the whole thing; we shouldn’t end all business with France. (I use France because there are quite a few real possibility and it isn’t really one of them.)

I also believe that the richest most powerful people do their best to control our media, progress, and evolution as a species.

I don't just believe... It is proven (!) that Zultar is an illuminati who put the alien Trump at the head of the USA with the support of Webdip Muslim Russian players after the 9/11 organised by JFK a few months before his hidden suicide so that him (reincarnated) in Gore can divert us with climate reheating to organise the invasion of North Korea as a bridgehead against China after the atomic bombing of Japan by UFO's.

But this is nothing in comparison with the fact it is always the belt holder who gets Austria !

The new Jamiet is not really Jamiet at all but a mod using his account under zultar's orders. After convincing everyone that zultar is reasonable and forgiving and an all round diamond geezer, the Jamiet account will be quietly retired for good.

What counts as a conspiracy, anyway? The US has the world's largest unofficial store of heavy water hidden in xxxxxx. There is an international conspiracy to fix oil prices. For the first time in half a century Russia didn't rig a US election and left it entirely to the American people, with disastrous consequences.

There's a lot of actual conspiracies out there and the phrase "Conspiracy Theorist" was dreamt up by the deep state to discredit anyone who was poking around where they shouldn't as a crackpot loon in order to keep evidence of the systematic corruption of institutional government and media power by self-interested, bad-faith, big money collectives.

Refugees.. Does Uganda treat refugees better than many wealthy Nations ?
More refugees from South Sudan entered Uganda in the last 12 months than entered Europe. Uganda allows them to enter, to work, gives many a small plot of land to farm. To appease locals in regional areas where refugees settle the Government allocates 30% of aid to local communities. My own Nation, Australia, a relatively wealthy nation treats some refugees well, but others with harsh treatment, incarceration in detention camps.
