The thing is, the longer players have been here, the more 'powerful' they are, to be included in yout G groups. If I as a player had been here since day 1, and lets say...*picks random naton off G15 List* <Insert name> hadn't, odds are I'd be on that list (and if you try and use my human rights violations as an excuse no, may I point out China?) No, I don't actually want to be part of a G group, not really, (i.e. this isn't me complaining I'm not in) but its also a longevity contest. They aren't going to be important descision making bodies if no one else abides by their rulings, and therefore, it can be formed IC without any offiicial weight. |

I would agree partly with you; with age comes a reputation, but several older nations have been left off, such as Orchyre, Emerald and Nova Elysium, whereas some much newer ones such as Leraq and Stefannica have been included. As for no-one listening to rulings made by them; the group does not have the authority to make rulings, it simply discusses and proposes to the AA, which does have the power. |

I would agree entirely. I believe the lists do show who the most important nations are, irrespective of OOC acheivment. Stefannica has only been around a month, and is on the (potential) G15. I have only been around for two, and I am on the provisional G8... Same goes with posts Morattica, on the (provisional) G15 has fewer posts than you, Koussath. I would also presume the summits could invite new members; so these groups will always just represent the most important IC nations who are still active. Though these summits will not at all rely on support from non-members to function; but I do hope, considering they have a very fair selection process and have great potential to change our world for the better, that people will support them, and recognise they command some authority...

I think the G8 should be changed to G10 or 11. Also was Leraq always on it? |

The problem with your theory is that I ain't on the list and I joined before it was on Nationstates. |

I had originally planned to put him on the G25, when it was only a G5, but when it became G8, I thought he should make the cut... |

I'd like to hear the logic between for the change in the lineup of both nations as, well, even if you do comb through FBs, there is still OOC to consider AND the fact that FBs are essentially national propaganda. Just because I SAY I have an uber military, for example, doesn't mean that I really should have it. |

Well, we got rid of Orchyre because he's OOCly moved on; ICly we can say his nation has diminished ever since the Great War, and now isn't worthy. Taeunus has been temporarily removed by public consensus, ICly because his nation doesn't have a strong economy. I have viewed factbooks, but have taken them with a pinch of salt, as advised, and gauged what I deemed realistic from them. All the nations currently selected are deemed strong by not just themselves, but by the majority of the community. Artfulia and Slostia were my next two favourites and were thus added as possible replacements for Orchyre and Taeunus. If you feel someone chosen by me has got in on an unrealistic FB, feel free to say. |

Now I really want to be a major part of this. But I don't know if my economy and/or military is good enough. |
