Precipice of War - Oh Woe the West

If we tried to RP on tumblr, we would waken one thousand angry SJW's. White dudes casually writing about racism and sexism? That would not fly.

The Gods are Crazy

Considering the application of fey, I think the druidic paganism of the British Isles is a fair basis.

She's already in the Gulag. That's why she came back.

Has to make many excellent posts for the motherland.

Well, it's good to have you back.But why are you people invading Ukraine? That shit ain't cool.

Now now, lets not accidentally start World War 3. Other wars have been started by less. And I would much rather the Ukraine give up its little dangly then have to do something uncomfortable like be drafted and die in some muddy field in Poland.

So... Since I really had no idea what state Britain was ever supposed to be in, what it's limits were or exactly how bad it was, and still don't really. (I don't even know what of it all is being kept canon)Can I perma jump back to Japan? It's isolated, has plenty of potential for good story lines now that I know what I'm doing, and because of it's location, I'll need to check with Aaron before I do anything outside of Japan, which prevents me from doing anything stupid. All in all, it's a benefit for everyone.On top of that, I've been learning the language and all about the culture for the last three years now, so I kind of have a pretty good grasp on it.So... What do you say?

That's the same reason you gave with your other jumps. "Can't think of anything." Why do you think that now, suddenly, you will be hit by a bunch of Japan-specific inspiration that you couldn't conjure before?

You need to learn to be happy where you are. Britain has a lot of potential.

As for cannon, just because we decanonize something doesn't mean you can't re-add it. It just can't contradict any canon changes we have made. There are a few things we are decanonizing because they don't make sense (mainly Florida being capable of independence, and some of the crazy that went on in the Americas in general). The reason we decanonized the rest is because we want people to be able to join nations without being burdened with a bunch of other peoples ideas, so we are stripping all the secondary nations down to the basic requirements they need to fit in with world history. That means that, though we would only really keep the anarchy as a requirement for a new person playing Britain, if you decide to take it up then you can read all your characters and the like. Though, it would be a chance to get rid of weird little things you came up with that you didn't like. I've went back and changed a few motivations and some of the events surrounding how land changed hand in my nations history, for instance.

Alright...I hope that the in-jokes won't be abundant. Half of the wiki is memes.

The wiki is mostly about stuff from early-mid 2012. By the end of that year, we had found our form, and by 2013 we were taking it pretty seriously.

So don't worry about in-jokes.

We will probably have to reintro characters, I suspect. Because the RP has been going on for so long, those of us who have been going with it already know the main characters pretty closely, but a new forum won't have that connection. So, A note to everyone coming from the MCF, Remember to describe your characters again when you first introduce them, and insert biographical information when you can get away with it to get people up to speed.

...which reminds me, what we do is largely character based, in that we handle nations by following the people who make the decisions within them. Some of us have even went further than that and follow characters who aren't involved in the politics at all, but rather travel across borders and experience their own stories. There isn't any "France orders ten thousand ships built." posts. This isn't to say you have to follow a lot of characters - we have had players who only followed one or two.

India definitively has potential and I suspect you would be getting a pretty bare cannon to sculpt since the previous India's were either weird or short-lived.
