    And here they come.
    The first two are easy(...) but the last three are hard. Not posting the last thou, because I can't put the smiley up:p

    3. What do you hope to gain from the GC?
    4. What can the the GC expect from you?

    Two words Wobbler- lie and bullshit. Say corney stuff. I know it will be hard to lie and be nice but give it a go.

    By the way DU, lets just say your voting for GC membership is doing exceedingly well!

    well it's not as much a matter of lie, it's more of a matter what to say. Can't come up with anytihng that sounds good. I mean, wealth and money sounds a bit greedy and world domination sounds a bit revealing:p

    Just be yourself, but keep in the back of your mind these two words:

    Defense and Diplomacy.

    Read the other applications, especially DU's for a guide on what to say.

    Well, you've already failed miserably at following the rules Wobbler. Your thread title should've been "Application: Name of Nation". :p

    Usually there are 5 or 6 applications you can look off. I had the honour of looking off of Frigo, maximus and Gross's applications all at once. Just look of DU's even though some of his answers are more hilarious than informative:)

    Post here any problems you are having. On another not mathboy's application has 8 moves to vote, hence the voting should hopefully begin when Vorak logs in next.

    I just registered at the new forum (I got all set up at the old one and you guys had to go and change it... grrrr...) and it says that the admin wishes to preview new accounts before allowing them to post. So... do I just wait? Anyone with forum privileges there around?

    Yay, now I have a voice. Of sorts.
    Last question: I intend to apply for membership, but it says in the charter that applicants can't be in any wars. I am currently being attacked by some other guy; will this be an impediment to my application process?

    I'm pretty sure it means we can't be in wars that we've started, or we can't be in a war that occured before, and is happening at the same time as, the application process.
    I was in a war while still applying to the GC. Maybe two. Don't remember.

    If someone raises an objection I suppose the HoL will just have to get you through the war and then you can apply again.

    Just to be sure, you didn't start the war did you?

    No, she didn't.

    Damnit, the trade was a cover story!

    I wasn't at war when I applied but was attacked during the application process. I mean, it's a week long process so it's bound to happen.

    During my application was the only time I've ever been attacked. Since then I've only had to worry about defending other GC members.
