Just curious given the talk of NS declining; how many active puppets do you have right now? Excluding your main nation. Me, I've two. If anyone has more than 50 you are mental.
I've got (and I sh*t thee not, as the Quakers would say) exactly 210 - alll with populations over 7 billion. I even topped Tres' number of puppets by more than a few at one time.
The funny part is that you can program any open-code browser to auto log in/out as many puppets as you want. Totally game legal as long as you don't UN multi. Think that's bizarre - I know one TGLI member that has 1600 puppets. I lost count of the total number of TGLA puppets, but it is phenomemal. And some organizations have even more.
Oh, and some organizations trade puppets so than no one can track who is who.
Even 210 puppets is insane. And all over 7 billion?
Kitabo is my only really active nation and I keep the two other Kitabos in Stars. I have a few more puppets but don't know why since I never use them. Having trouble keeping them alive leads to CTEs now and then.
