Ok... I give up. In TNP, there are these Pierconium and Alexis (and many else) which will soon come to arms against each other (in RL terms) because they've different views on Francoism, Francoists and Feederites and Userites and Mooists and so on.

It has been amusing, but now their analysis is going SO deep in philosophy and theology and the hell knows what else that I'm a bit lost. So... it seems there are people going all around saying "i'm Francos' heir", "i'm Francos' doom", "i'm Francos".

Could some of these about-Francos-speakers just calm down a bit and explain me what a Francoist is? And what's a Userite? And how do I know if I'm a Francoist or a Userite?






I am not joking. I really do not know because I'm too a newbie, here. So I hope there will be nobody coming down the highest of heavens surrounded by holy flames saying "you're making fun out of Holy Francoism, infidel. die! die!".

Ahem. Sorry 'bout that.

*digs out Francoism Cliffs Notes*

Francoism in its current state basically states that game-created regions (The 5 Pacifics and RR/Lazarus) should be independent, sovereign, and primarily associated with one another. It also states that alliances with user regions (every region not listed above) should be avoided by game-created regions because they are disproportionately advantageous to the user regions and constitute a loss of sovereignty for game regions. Francoists believe that game regions need a strong, united government under a powerful leader to be successful.

Usually there's some extra stuff waxing lyrical to Francos Spain on top of that, which is a pity as the core of it (mentioned above) is actually pretty sensible. I don't see any reason to complicate it by idolizing a guy who ran his region into the ground and then ditched the game.

Are the followers Loopins?
Is the thinking Loopy? As Loopy as a frood caek?
Are there any Loopy Froods left in the wild?
And where did Unibot find those diodes, anyway?

Tune in to next weeks exciting instalment of Loop-lighters' guide to the Galaxy, where some or none of these questions may be answered.
