[quote=Outcast] @Aegon; I like your plucky optimism. Anyway, the two sides have already chosen their names. One side is the Eighth Coalition, the other is the Allied Powers. [/quote] Is that how it comes off? If so, then that's great on multiple levels:wub I like to think of myself as a plucky hero in the adventure that is my life, I'm trying to be even more optimistic than I was last year, etc etc etc. I digress... I'm also trying to play it like I can still win because I don't just want to give up. I have to get into the character of fighting for the honorable and traditional society of the CSA and the Soul of the South as I've described it in the IC. Those are really cool names, actually. Who's who, exactly??
