Ok. Ok. I may be the only person who reviews the rankings religiously...
But how can ElinTol be considered the LEAST safe region, yet be in the top 5 for Most Advanced Law enforcement???

Elintol, do you send Igor's henchmen out to cut brake lines or something?

I invite your ambassador to drive over here and discuss that.

Happily, but it is our policy that all people representing Bettisia use Bettisian supplied vehicles.

Only if he’s already a suspected dissident right? Wouldn’t want any unfortunate ‘accidents’ now would we?

The only accident would be if he tried to adjust ANY of a Bettisian vehicle's workings with OUT the passcode.
Yes, we are paranoid here, but it just adds to the fun.

If you would like to view a selection of our armored, tamper-resistant vehicles, please look in pages 852 - 1935 in our spring/ summer catalog.

Perish the thought, now, it is traditional to have this spiced tea. It is a unique flavour, but once they've tasted it then they'll enjoy it for the rest of their life. Also there is a security alert which says those pesky Maxtopian insurgents are trying to poison diplomats with some dastardly poison. I just want your ambassador to know that before they drink the tea.

I will happily drink your tea!
The stuff Terran added to his Vodka mash are legendary contaminant extractors- he said that the Vodka didn't like competition.
More importantly they increase both the effect and the flavor.

The stories Onyx tells of its addictive properties and of folks falling over within seconds, are HIGHLY exaggerated!
(Hush Onyx!!!!!!)

The stories of what happens when I can't get it, are unfortunately factual.
Did you know that enough munitions levied at a planet will result in a smooth glass layer several miles thick?
It now supplies ALL the bullet proof glass for our vehicles. :)

And if your munitions stockpiles are lackluster, then an unfortunate mistake of lighting a Terran vodka warehouse on fire will suffice. Just remember to ignore the warning label about the extreme lethality , read fun, of the favored cocktail.

Most Extensive Public Healthcare. Sounds good, but who's going to pay for it?

Well evidently, the Usual Suspects are.
All are in the top 16, and most are in the top 10.

Congrats to Polyspastonia on winning the Gold in this ranking.
Well done to ElinTol on achieving the silver.
And a good effort to Zhenbabwe on earning the bronze.

Considering the Planet Earth is also known as Terra, isn't it logical that Terran Vodka would just be... you know... Vodka? Since all Vodka's Terran anyway...

I don't wanna be that guy but... just sayin'

Hehehehe! You would think so!
Before Onyx and mine old region was overrun by the Hawks, we had a member called Terran Socialist Union.
He created a special Vodka that I became quickly addicted to.
So now Terran Vodka refers to this special drink, not just any regular vodka from Earth.

Longest lived...
Well I am starting to think Polyspastonia has rigged the elections. Yep he is the longest lived of all Atlantis.

All of the Usual Suspects- except onyx (now how did YOU get 5th???)- are dead last in this category.
(I will let you decide if the pun was intended.)

Have a nice weekend and holiday (if you celebrate it where you are located)!!!

Trout Fishing???
Don't they just come filleted and breaded at the store?
Well of course the Usual Suspects are divided.
With two on page 2, and two dead last.

Congrats to Zaltherc on being the best fisherman in Atlantis!

The Usual Suspects just can't seem to get together!
On the least Corrupt Governments:
Two are dead last;
and two are in the top 10.

I know I want to do business with Zhenbabwe!
He is the LEAST Corrupt Government in all of Atlantis!!!

Most Stationary....
hmmm...
Guess if I want to move up this list, I need to start killing folks off.
So many bodies. So little time. :)

Basket Weaving???
I (and evidently ElinTol) don't need no stinkin' basket weaving!
Madrocea and Onyx however.... Now it seems to be the National Pastime for them.

I Am Ryn however is the Master of all things Basket Weaving.
We all bow in adoration to your skills.
