Yes I'm Down
No I'm not down
I'm a banana
If I were to initiate a new NES, who would be down?
It would be as oldschool as I could make it, and thus very much as self-moderating as possible.
Updates would be Wednesdays and Weekends (Fri Sat or Sun)
and sooner if I have all orders + the time.
I'd be willing to do anything besides a futuristic NES or Uber Historical one.
Thoughts?

I'd likewise be up for anything. Something modern might be fun- anything post-1900.

I also would really like to see who all would be interested, 'poly NESes don't get too many walk-ins it seems.

that's true. Advertising is needed

Sounds good, but I don't want to get my hands too full - I'm doing enough writing for HRE as it is. I'll certainly consider it, though.

ok, so some people have been talking about an intersite NES 'poly vs CFC who thinks it should be here?

Intriguing! Specifics?

Very interesting, as long as we can keep it from being a giant gang-rape because they outnumber us by orders of magnitude.

player limit of 8 PC nations and a cold/war bloc type of NES would be in order
MOD would have their hands full, so I would ask either 2 mods, one from each site, or one experienced mod who can remain impartial

Other option is to do one completely from scratch

I can mod or co-mod if the rules are good enough.
So we want it to actually be Poly vs. CFC, or just a game with players from both sites?
If the former, New World-Old World kind of thing, I'm thinking. But even then the alliances could be breakable. And the point would obviously have to not be conquest. What era? Not historical, I think.

Maybe historical, but not especially far back- WWI or maybe the 19th century.

what about each player is given a goal? and the first "team" to have all their players reach that goal, wins?

I dunno. Having a way for a team to 'win' sounds like it will only create trouble. Let em just play.

IŽd be in, too.

Is there any way to notify people on the boards at CFC about this? I seem to recall threads that might be seen as pulling posters away from CFC being closed and the thread starters threatened with banning- specifically a thread begging a revival of the 'Poly NES scene.

That's why it needs to be a competition.
CFC won't back down from a formal challenge from Apolyton.

Give me ten days. I think I've got something what'll work.

Sounds like a challenge!
So what will it be? Four on four, 'Poly v. CFC?
"Bother," said Pooh, "Eeyore, ready two photon torpedoes and lock

A higher player cap than that, I think. So team CFC will have more players in all likelihood, but the catch is that they will be in closer quarters and there will be more people for them to keep in agreement. I'm also toying with the idea of having team specific updates and some individual nation missions, i.e. a little more guided in the setup. Open ended in how it ends, of course, but a few premade options for conflict.

That would make sense. What are you thinking for time periods?

Just a thought, but what if going out of character for your nation can result in SEVERE penalties from the nation's population, for example at set up
Nation of Red Durango
Player: Metaliturtle
Economy: Crappy
Education: High
Tech Level: Modern
Military: Small
Population: 4,000,000
Population opinions:
Offensive War: "Hell no! We won't go!" -2 army size
Defensive War: "Nobody picks on us and gets away with it" +4 army size in country, +10 production if mobilization called for by leader.
Population opinions can change with tech level, education, etc.
Essentially we should make it so that grossly unexpected actions (i.e. I no00kd j00 n00bzorz!) doesn't happen. perhaps increased technology, economy and or education would decrease people's willingness to go to war, but increase their appeal to NPC nations that would join a nation that has remained friendly to them, so countries could grow that way.
Even beginning from scratch, this system could work well if refined, this is just my $0.02

I'm not sure yet, but I'm leaning strongly towards ahistorical. Technology is going to generally lie somewhere around early-mid 1800s.

well, any more on this, foolish_icarus?

Rules are being worked out. It would help to know how many players there will be.

10? + or - 2

I'm looking mainly at two options:
1. Ahistorical early industrial.
2. Fatherland
