Hmmmm...
Twin towers in the North Sea.
Rise of sea level by global heating won't effect me (like in Holland).
Daily fresh seafood.
:-?
But then, the wheather will probably be worse than in Holland.
And the place will be much too quiet for me (unless you and your family move in).
:D
Its worth the money for the prices they charge for proxy servers based there.

There are things we must decide here and now.
Steering wheels on the left or on the right?

MIDDLE!!!!
Will we be manufacturing our own cars in Japan or will we just buy the Japanese established brands?
Will gasoline (petrol for all you funny speaking peoples) be sold in liters or by gallons?
who need cars when we can make our own subs!:up:

Cars? Jetpacks? get real!! Remember what this forum is about!! It has to be submarines!! Could you imagine 30 or so U-boats tied up at the base of our new country when we all get together.:o
It would keep the Royal Navy from trying to take over our country!:arrgh!:

I got 5 bucks to chip in. Who else?
We must defend our island, whatever the cost may be!

LOL, the guys over at HK94 are already fantasizing about making that place a small fort with families living there in each room and making part of that island an arms factory.:yep:

That's much better than the stupid island.
That sounds like the real thing!

Nuts to paying for it let's all bundle in and plant the Subsim flag. :smug:

if you bought this, i wonder if you would be allowed to expand it?
anybody play the game Syndicate ? i remember there was a mission on a floating platform and it was huge. i'm just thinking. more concrete stilts (get em from bp?) or perhaps an old oil platform raised and moved? join em up and start building! hell if you're going to have a country its worth having a big one right?

They build (or used to build) rigs up in Lowestoft which is just up the coastline from our new country....so if they still build them, getting addons shouldn't be a problem :rock:
Failing that, we can use our fleet of diesel boats to steal an oil rig from the North Sea platforms. :lol:

But once we buy it we will need:
U-boats to get us there
More space
Electricity for our monster SH4 rigs
Proxies
Food other than seafood.

Erm....
Who took me seriously about trying to steal an oil rig?

Though technically, ramming it isn't the same as stealing it...but still, mad coincidences!
