Because he hates sheets, as he said. And I don't blame him. I do too. It's a lot better to just lay down the history through IC posts than to puke it up into some sheet. It's simpler, and it allows for more freedom. He can make it up as he goes and that is way more fun than restricting yourself to what you wrote down in a sheet one night.

Which is why you can play in different RPs with different nations etc.
How exactly is the history going to be IC without being disparate to the current events? I think random info dumps on history would be rather jarring.
Look our philosophy on how to do things is different. I've been doing it like this for six years now and we're never going to agree so there's no point arguing about it.
