Hahaha....I'm assuming that WWII-themed bids are HIGHLY DISCOURAGED, as are poo films.

Now now, those are just stereotypes. The Germans I've met are nice, and that area of the world is really beautiful.

It's the same thing as with the U.S. -- focus on the positive things (space travel and freedom) and ignore the Native American genocide, don't mention the problem with the overs (overconsumption, overeating, overbudget, overspent, overworked), and please don't bring up the global spread of the corporate-sponsored monoculture.

Oops. Almost forgot. In reference to the U.S., also don't mention the WWII fire bombings that killed hundreds of thousands of civilians, hundreds of years of slavery, and, of course, the TV show, Alf.

Um. Also skip that whole nuclear weapon thing that killed a quarter of a million civilians in Japan. Just focus on the freedom.

Great Phil Almighty, people. I wasn't making fun of the germans, I was poking fun at the Linden concept of Freedom To Build. Asking people to do something creatively "german-themed" is, well..... it's asking for it. Funny part is that residents would more likely get banned for submitting something Nazi-fied, because it's "german-themed" than they would if they submitted something similiarly distasteful that was a put-down to the US's less savory aspects.

From: someone
and, of course, the TV show, Alf.
Really! When The Fall of Western Civiilization is written, Alf will likely be the Franz Ferdinand of the story.

The red-headed chick from Small Wonder.

The little next door neighbor, remember? She was a loveable cutie-pie, I wonder what ever became of her.

I would love to, however I'm a matter of days away from having a child, so I am unable to commit myself to anything. I've heard that there are some Neualtenburgers who are interested in submitting something, though. :)

How right you are. :D

Sorry about the misunderstanding. It's just that I so love to do anti-U.S. rants. ;)

i have a few questions:

1> does this pay in USD or L$?

2> as precedent, how much was paid for the ahern WA and other LL commissioned builds?

3> will ulrika be allowed to just submit n-burger as her entry?

As Gildemeister of the City of Neualtenburg, I can tell you that "Die Gilde" (The Artist's Guild) will indeed be submitting an entry. We will, however submit a full proposal, which will include some of the look of Neualtenburg as well as many new structures and styles native to Germany. We're very excited to enter, and whether we get the assignment or not feel this will be a very positive happening for Neualtenburg :)
