It may be a "." Now, but I'm pretty sure I can put 2 and 2 together and come up with what this was...


Or you could look at what Fallenreaper quoted...

You better censor yourself or we'll have Icon punt you into the sun!
And there! 2/3 posts done, War-Pulse post is up with a bit of comic relief!

Now for the Umbraxis post, @The Fair Lady I hope this has not been too much of a delay.


Nice post. ;)

Must. Behave myself. Be good, be good. Oh hi there! I'm just practicing my mantra. Move along, shoo.

@Gaebrael: You have France on there twice and Peppermints was given Austria.
1) France
2) Italy
3) Sweden-Norway
I still think we are making this way more complicated than it should be. We should pick the time period before we give our nation picks, not the other way around. With an exception of a few nations, most game relevant nations are still present in all the timelines.
Actually, I think I have the best idea. Everybody has until 8:00 tomorrow to tell me what nation they are hoping for. I will find the time when hopefully all of them exist, and we choose that.


I am not quite sure that will work because many of the major players are still around in all five potential starting times.

-US
-UK
-France
-Austria
-Prussia/Germany
-Russia
-The Ottoman Empire (on its last legs in 1920)
-Some form of Italy (Piedmont-Sardinia)

Edit: Also, 8:00 (am? pm?) in what timezone?
I am up for any of them, although the middle three would be my preferred options (1836 being my #1 choice).
@Gaebrael: What we were trying to say was that, whatever date we choose, we should not just pick a random date out of thin air (or rather live it up to a dice roll). Whether it is 1836 or 1900, it needs to be picked because we would like to play during that time. For example:

1836:
-Texas War of Independence vs. Mexico
-Ongoing Skirmishes between the Netherlands and Belgium
-Ongoing The Carlist War in Spain
-Second Egyptian-Ottoman War happens in 3 years in RL.

1900:
-Boxer Revolution in China
-2nd Boer Wars involving the UK
-Ongoing Philippine–American War

I'd like to be a bit more optimistic, but ya, starting date I am going to say 1836 + 1d100. The result will be posted soon, time-stamped.


I agree with Nexerus here. We should not randomly pick a date solely on a dice role. I think there has been several people who have stated that they would like to start in 1836 (a date that we have not done on this board yet). Furthermore, we should not even worry about an end date. The game ends whenever it ends.

I think that 1836 would be a good date. There has been three 1836 games on the Paradox Boards and we can see if we can salvage anything from their stats (so things that they used in those games seemed totally unnecessary).
