Dumanios Aye; that it is!

Lyhoko Leaci True. Sometimes interesting is not good!

rewright Thanks! That’s just what I was trying to do.

Hester You are welcome to visit anytime!

emperordaniel I am sure some magnifying glasses were deployed to singe the incompetents who led that raid…

Larks2242 Thanks! They want to use that quote in their tourism brochure!

vivapanda Indeed. I compact it in pretty close in Schulmania.

NMUSpidey I bet it would be easier if you had a helicopter…

First War Memorial

Now more than two years into a war with Queensferry, Schulmania has gained approval from the Supreme Wirdle to build the first war memorial in the nation. Most of the battle sites are either in enemy hands or in areas too dangerous to build such a place. But, in South Wirdleonia, where the garrison town of Little Castle stood before it was destroyed by enemy missiles, the area is safe enough to allow plans to proceed.

All that remains of the town now is a large crater. It is that crater which the War Memorial Commission, in association with the Office of Military Construction and Schulmania National Parks wishes to preserve and make into the a memorial. Below is information about the plans and how you can help contribute to make this happen.

First, a reminder of what was there before the attack…

And what was done by Queensferry…

How you can help:

The plans drawn up for the memorial will cost 16,300 gold schulmonetas to execute. Once the sum has been raised, construction can begin. Schulmania is counting on the Simtropolis community to help raise these funds. Luckily, 3,000 schulmonetas have already been raised, so only 13,300 remain to be collected. How do you contribute? For each “like” on the Schulmania topic in Volume 3, a contribution of 1,000 schulmonetas will be recorded (thus, the 3 likes there already provide the 3,000 aforementioned coins). Where’s the proper place to like? It’s here: https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/journals/698-schulmania/ . A “like” of the War Memorial post in Volume 3 will donate 350 schulmonetas. Where’s that? It’s here: https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/journals/698/entry-15547-first-war-memorial/. And, a post of support in either Volume 2 (here: https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/topic/24185-schulmanias-gated-community/) or Volume 3 (https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/journals/698/entry-15547-first-war-memorial/ ) will donate 200 schulmonetas. And, there’s one more way to contribute. A posted comment on the Schulmania Blog in support of the project will donate an additional 200 schulmonetas. Where’s that? It’s here: http://schulmania.info/blogengine.net/ . A running total of donations received will be posted on the Volume 3 update page until the amount has been raised.

Thank you in advance for your support!

Always willing to support a good feline cause. Intrigued to see what the memorial will look like.

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

I'm hitting up all your links, Schulmanator!

[emperordaniel 1,281]

I wonder what everything will be like once the war is over... perhaps the Supreme Wirdle's dream in Volume 1 of a completely modernized nation, kind of like Queensferry (but without any bad Buggs or pollution, and with everything looking beautiful) will be fufilled this way?

When a nation is already putting up war memorials, you can usually be pretty sure that the war is nearly at an end or has already ended

Dou!

I like it!

My, that's a short translation.

Some Laaren Aarnz gold should help.

[Larks2242 251]

Woot! A War memorial, gotta represent those fallen kitty soldiers!

[nathanthemayor 1,261]

Can't wait to see what the finished memorial looks like!

Fundraising is going well... we have collected 15800 schulmonetas so far. Almost there! In the mean time, celebrate this map triumph with me:

It took 2 years, but I finally got one! Now all I need is Nunavut/NWT to finish up Canada.

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

The one in the upper right isn't Nunavut?

*Looks at map details*

Huh, its from the province of "-"...

[emperordaniel 1,281]

Almost there, Canada!

YES!!!

What will be done with the extra money?

[Hester 699]

@Emperordaniel what a great question!

[Schulmanator 5,787]

Did you know today is Opposite Day?

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

Isn't it never opposite day, because even when it is, it isn't?

Misa: What is this?

Lyhoko: Looks like something got all flipped around in the universe.

Misa: Hopefully the flip causes those Buggs to flop.

[vivapanda 422]

Did Indonesia show up too?

[Schulmanator 5,787]

vivapanda They mystery has now been revealed!

Larks2242 Awesome! They will be thrilled to have the quote in the brochure!

Benedict Your support is greatly appreciated.

NMUSpidey Awesome! I knew we could count on you.

emperordaniel Her vision may yet come to pass…

vivapanda Awesome!

Gn_leugim Hehehe! And thanks for the contribution.

Lyhoko Leaci Gold is always welcome!

Larks2242 Exactly!

nathanthemayor Site work has already begun since the fundraising was so successful.

Dumanios We appreciate your support!

111222333444 That’s the spirit! Thanks for the donation.

ee99 Thanks for the support!

Lyhoko Leaci It had me fooled the first time too… when it can’t place the dot correctly in the country, it puts it in the ‘middle’ as if the country was a box. I have quite a few of those… I was so excited when I thought Alice Springs showed up in Australia only to find out it was just a generic Australia. But I finally got a Darwin so now all Australian states and territories are represented.

emperordaniel The Yukon made my day! And now with Monaco, all I need is Vatican City and Europe will finally be finished!

vivapanda Site work is already underway!

emperordaniel Surplus find will go to the national War Memorial Commission for future plans for a national memorial at the new capital site. Additional topic ‘likes’ and posts in the Volume 3 fundraising post will add to the total.

Hester A national memorial will require a LOT more schulmonetas!

Lyhoko Leaci Hmmm… if I say it is opposite day, then it is not, if it is indeed opposite day. But then, if it is indeed opposite day and I say it is and then it’s not, then how could it be opposite day???!! [smoke pours from Schulmanator’s ears and he tries to process this paradox… eventually he gets distracted by a squirrel and chases after it,… leaving these deep philosophical questions for later…]

vivapanda Indeed! I have a pairing of those to show as well!

More goodies are on the way!

[sc4portugal 10]

War? Oh noes

[Schulmanator 5,787]

A mystery even bigger than who was King Tut's wireless service provider... coming up next!
