Schulmania

[Rearviewmirror. 3]

Long live Schulmania, I don't post often but I have enjoyed this thread quite a bit.

[citiesxlfan42 27]

Yay! The new State Visit Choronicle! What is that flag counter thingy and that map like thing with all the stars on it? I'm new here, so I just wanted to know.

[Schulmanator 5,793]

Benedict Woo hoo! Though I see that today I was overthrown in a coup... must scheme my way back to the top...

Leech10 The new aid is within the 2010 State Visit retrospective on the Schulmania website.

Hester I am sure she will give each of us a piece of cake too.

Abcvs I would have been smarter to do it your way. But, for now, I am going to stick with the one I have... at least until the new one gets a whole bunch of countries. I have ~58 now. About 30 more than I had ever expected.

Hester I should have done one like that to begin with. But I figured, what's the chances more than 36 different countries would ever stop by?!

Leech10 Odd how the first half dozen flags were...

Korot It is moving along well. I wish there was a way to merge them. But, I don't have the techno-skills to do that...

Hester I would hate to lose the nearly 1000 different people it already has in it...

Leech10 Definitely popular flag colors...

ZGMF - X88S WOW! I have not seen you in, like, forever! Glad to have you back. Say, how did you get a flag counter for states and provinces? That's cool.

citiesxlfan42 The map and flags are for visitors to the webpage. Just sort of a guest tracking thing because it's cool to see.

So, did anyone see what good fortune has come Schulmania's way? Check the 2010 State Visit link above and find it...

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

Ack! Something wicked this way comes! (on the top ten list, that is.)

[Benedict 3,119]

Is it the new warships/templates?

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

Bigfoot? Or just a lone, big, foot?

Can't wait for more!

Schulmania Trading Cards!

Set 8: Military Series

The eighth set of Schulmania trading cards has just been released- and it has a patriotic flair.To honor the Schulmania National Military as it continues the fight for freedom against the vile and unpopular Queensferry, the card publisher, Charles W. Sardine & Sons of Atkiniros, has selected all military subjects for the new seven card set. The highly prized collector's pack is now available in retail outlets nationwide or by mail order from the publisher. The cost? Still an astoundingly low 89 purrs. And, for every pack purchased, 10 purrs is donated to the Military Bands & Choral Music Office to support performances for citizens and soldiers nationwide.

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

Is that one of the ships from Schulmauckland?

Looks good, can't wait for more!

[Benedict 3,119]

Great trading cards! I like Glenwood Academy best.

[kj3400 178]

I'll take al you've got!

*plunks down entire contents of Commonwealth treasury*

[Hester 700]

I'll take a full set.. I am particularly interested in the TRT however.

[jim 546 43]

8th set? I've got to find the rest! What is the picture of the Schulmania National Army from, it looks familiar?

[Benedict 3,119]

Congratulations - Schulmania bounced back to number one on Ben's Top Ten for the week ending April 29.

[Schulmanator 5,793]

Leech10 Not any more! Queensferry is off the list! Let's hope it doesn't find its way back on, either.

Benedict Yes, the new ship acquisition from Schulmauckland is certain to revolutionize naval warfare for Schulmania. Assuming of course Queensferry does not find out and bomb the shipyards.

Leech10 Actually, believe it or not, there is a follow up story:

http://www.wsoctv.com/news/23937399/detail.html

ZGMF - X88S Thanks! I did not know you could do that.

Leech10 It is indeed. There will be a new page in the military section of the website dedicated to the Smightower Naval Base/First Fleet soon.

Benedict It is a nice one, isn't it?

kj3400 Done and done. Thank you for shopping with us; please come again.

Hester Also a fine choice!

jim 546 You can see all of the other sets here: http://www.schulmania.info/index_files/cards.htm - there's about 50 other cards in the full collection.

Benedict Woo hoo! And the multilegged ones are not in the list. Even better!

Good news - we are up to 60 countries now represented in the Schulmania flag counter thingy. We added most recently Saudi Arabia and Israel. The ones right before them were Slovakia, Czech Republic and South Africa. Here's an updated map of who has come to see us since the flag thingy started.

Schulmania Flag Counter Compilation

As for the map thingy, today's shows a record 5 stars on Australia, including one on the west coast. Woo hoo! The Supreme Wirdle thanks everyone for coming by!

[Benedict 3,119]

Yes, the insectoids do seem to be a bit up and down at the moment.

[Muck308 55]

C'mon, Belarus! Get with the program!

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

Lets see... western Balkans, Middle East, central Asia, basically all of Africa, Central America, and parts of South America, and a couple other smaller holes. Still have a ways to go, but there is definitely a significant amount already.

Edit:

Have a map.

And a buckets of flags... Hmm...

*Grabs a crowbar and pries frame off of flag bucket*

*Fiddles around with innards*

*Uses mallet to re-attach frame*

Yay!

[Follarch 326]

So does that one card mean Schulmania now has advanced metal-plated warships?

And it looks like that one kitty had his picture taken while taking aim on a poor Canine.

PS: Leech - you da man! That'll do quite nicely!

[ion496 1]

T_T Army? Looks like sid meier's pirates.

[Benedict 3,119]

Congratulations, you've scored yet another number one slot on Ben's Top Ten for the week ending 6 May! Plus it was a bug-free week

[Dumanios 35]

The only thing that could be worse than Queensferry invading is Queenferry invading with killer tomatoes and vuvuzelas.

East Tenne: Cottontail Island

Good news, bunny fans! Cottontail Island has been added to the Tenne River Delta National Park as a bunny sanctuary! In recognition of Agriculture Commissioner Zelgadis “ZJ” Junior’s hard work at organizing the Simtropolis Bunny Brigade, the Supreme Wirdle has designated the island as a permanent sanctuary for bunnies. The island was chosen for its convenient location (close to the planned new capital and connected to two islands and the mainland via bridges) and abundant vegetation. Most trees have been chopped down and grasses, broadleaf weeds and clovers have been planted to provide for a feast for all hippity hoppity residents of the island.

At the intersection of roads leading from the three bridges, a council chamber has been built for the Simtropolis Bunny Brigade. Here, SBB leaders meet with Schulmania officials and others coming to collaborate with them.

The grasses and clovers have been deemed “delicious”! And, here’s proof!

BONUS FEATURE!

As more plug ins have become available for rural/agricultural areas over the time since I first developed the islands of the Tenne River Delta, I have started going back and enhancing the islands with the latest goodies made by our awesome pals who upload to the STEX, LEX and PLEX. So, here’s a preview of how islands will look when the transformation is complete (most of the islands in the park will get some sort of makeover, but a few will be kept in the original form as well).

[Follarch 326]

Another one plants the flora! Ooh! Another one plants and another one plants, another one plants the flora!

Song over, beautiful island shores!

LOL LOL  Now THAT would make Queensferry pretty invincible.  Loved this!

[kj3400 178]

You sure have a way with nature. I hope the bunnies get carrots. I won't stand for mistreatment!

[Craig-Abcvs 1,595]

Moar plugins! MOAR I tells ya!

[TmiguelT 10]

Pretty good use of the new plugins ... and Zelgadis sure loves the new sanctuary ...
