[OOC] World in Revolution: 1861

I mean, even if someone could "win", does that really mean anything? Does winning this actually mean that much? It sure doesn't for me. If I wanted to "win", I would play a "Total War" or "Age of" game.

It is more so the fact that things that shouldn't really be possibly are so. I don't expect everything to be realistic considering the same powers would reign supreme every time, but when certain things happen and the punishment is a one turn revolt, or a bunch of ships that shouldn't be possible or even if it is should probably cause some domestic issues... Though that doesn't seem to be happening which is why people aren't particularly pleased.

Whatever, Kho, keep playing to win by manipulating every nuance of the rules. If debt had interest you'd fall apart tomorrow. Good for you, you found an exploit, and broke R3 realism in so doing.

What are you on about? It is a fact of history that the Ottoman Empire fell into debt in this period due to increased naval expenditure. Shouldn't be feeling the effects until 1876, and since I'm already a democracy...the consequences have been neutralised. That's the last am saying on the matter.

And IRL, there was interest.

I thing Outcast is just simplifying it for the sake of making fewer steps for him to keep track of.

Your debt is 9,100% of your income. On what basis should you not feel any effects as a result of this until 1876?

Made a decison - naval purchases are now based on industry level. Kho's purchase has been cut back (sorry Kho). Went over income stats and couldn't find any errors. Belgiums income has not been added to the Netherlands because that takes two updates - and before you get angry and say I should have said that, most parts of the stats are kept secret, and it was the same for all nations; Prussia, Sweden, Siam, all of them.

Now will you all stop whinging?

And time to rewrite my orders.

Thank you. I am sorry for snapping at you, it has been a long, hot day in my neck of NY.

I'm going to send my war orders in for this week. Aegon said he'll be late, but it's cool since he wasn't going to have the CSA put up a fight so you can go ahead and make the mini-update without him sending in orders.

Definitely didn't say any of that

Mine should be in Monday American time (Tuesday for you, more likely than not, Outcast)

You did not really just make the Richmond Address, did you???

My concerns were addressed and my question was answered, so I'm satisfied.

AegonVI said American time

Will it be in before or after America o'clock?

That was easier to say than Central Standard Time and the possibility of him not knowing what that was...

Danke schon.

We will be informed when we should send in orders for a war mini, correct?

We never had a Battle of Gettysburg so I had to improvise. It's funny that Jeff "Winston Churchill" Davis would call me out on a historical speech!

I do suppose the turning point was when you captured Richmond, too... But still.
And I'm not Jeff Davis!!!

As I respect the GM, his decisions and this game, I fully understand this move and, while not happy about it, fully support it. Thank you.

.... God, how I wish I could react without ruffling feathers in Europe.
