Today I’ve got this Issue on my Nationstates (nationstates.net)
Great Balls of Fire!
NATIONSTATE is abuzz with news of a huge meteorite – dubbed ‘Big Max’ by the media – which smashed into a large town on the outskirts of CAPITAL yesterday, killing thousands and leaving behind nothing but a smouldering crater.
I’ve encountered with 4 choice
1. “We can’t let a little old boulder get the best of us!” bellows Louis Wolowitz, a burly military official. “We have to fight back! Show ‘em what we’re made of! With a little funding, we could develop some terrific new weapons for the next bit of flying rock that dares to threaten us! Nuke it to smithereens! If ever there was a time to prepare for space warfare, it is now!”
2. “That’s all well and good,” interjects Professor Sabrina Duras, leading scientist at the NATIONSNAME Meteorological Office. “Except that the chances of a fall of this magnitude occurring twice in the same area are miniscule at worst. I propose you direct your funding to the real issue here – rebuilding the homes and properties that have been lost, and tending to the injured and traumatised. As soon as we’ve removed what’s left of Big Max for studying, you can make a start.”
3. “Remove the greatest phenomenon NATIONSNAME has ever seen?!” cries Amber Lobachevsky, the famous museum tycoon. “Surely you can envisage the profit that could be had here? We should be opening the site for tourists! Think of the possibilities – guided tours, gift shops, theme parks! You don’t want to build on top of all that potential, do you? Besides, the old residents are all dead now anyway! I’m sure this is what they would have wanted.”
4. “All of these ideas are either costly, ridiculous or both!” snorts your Spiritual Advisor, leaning over your desk. “Your people are frightened and vulnerable right now. They don’t want you to take action; they want you to tell them it’ll all be okay. We could use this! Tell them Big Max was a warning from the heavens! Strike the fear of the Mighty One into their hearts and they’ll do whatever you tell them!”
5. Dismiss the issue
Option 1. sounds nice so I choose it.
The result saids ‘The government has adopted a “Lightning Never Strikes Twice” approach to dealing with natural disasters.’
