The Dance of Civilizations [Diplo Game] [Organization Thread Pt1]

[Korea (DoC)]

I do use the mixed as it make less dispute or IG badwill for me. I post ic for most things but if i say my opinions are against another nations use of the rules as inca that nation might hold grudges later. it is a hard choice but sometimes its better for me to post as me not Inca.

Well now that i am forced to post in game login i will let you know i hate your people ....


See that will have no effect at all...

Turn has flipped because we all ended turn - a first? Who would have thought it on a random Tuesday?

[Russia (DoC)]

i agree with RP

My final comment on the controversy

How Saladin thought the trade was going down:

I give tech to Brit. I receive a voucher.

What I didn't realize is that the mere act of conducting the transaction costs me a voucher. Thus I actually didn't receive an extra voucher. My voucher count stays the same.

Given my dialog in the game with Brittania I contend that he knew what my expectations were and went on regardless. However that is a matter to settle in the game now.

OOC Note: I have always posted with my game character sign in regarding this.

Mixing anon and non-anon posts is defenitely not a good idea.
So we must make a decision which one we use.
The more often we use our normal accounts, the more likely it'll be that we reveal our identity.

I suggest that from now on we only use anonymous accounts.
I'll then only use my RP account for organisational reasons or answering questions.

So far only Rasputin appeared to disagree. Any others disagree?

By positng in ANON accouint for votes it could lead to ingame retaliations for voting an oposing way.

ANON is for the game , the story posts and for the tech trade thread. Not for organsiation.

Again, if you have an in game problem , post with your anon. but once we start voting only POLY logins should be used.

Nice idea in theory Ras, but doesn't work in practice. In any situation some people are involved and therefore have to post using Anon accounts since they have to be saying how it affects them etc. If others then use non-anon accounts, everyone knows who is who and anonymity colllapses. I understand you don't believe in anonymity or at least don't care to preserve it, but if we have it, we have to use it for discussions of game related situations like the tech trade discussions.

oh and congrats on some great Story posting guys. starting to get veryiimpressive.

Well Raz Ill try my best to keep it interesting for you as long as I can.

And I agree with Rome that we should only post here using our anonymous accounts.
Now it's impossible to see who's double posting. (ie.: "I agree" and "So do I" both coming from the same person) and in-character political posts from ooc-accounts.

or same result but better is to post for votes and opinions in poly login not ANON.

My server crashed, which is why I reloaded it.
I'm at work and I can't easily reach my server b/c of the firewalls, etc. that's why it took some while. All is fine again now.

[Mali (DoC)]

You're forgetting I was offered a voucher in exchange for a tech. I didn't receive the voucher. I don't understand why this is difficult for people to comprehend. Somehow this is my fault for not understanding the rules. That I don't agree and I think this rule is unfair.

Brittannia has taken advantage of this situation. If Britannia offers me a future comparable tech in exchange then the matter is over. If there is no agreement for that I'll play on and for one purpose only. You can guess what that will be.

But you did receive a voucher. Perhaps it wasn't noted in the tech trade thread yet.

Let's say you have 8 vouchers. You trade Monarchy away so you lose a voucher (7 vouchers). Britannia trades you a voucher. You are now back to 8 vouchers. You have an extra voucher to use for something else.

[Persia (DoC)]

Ok, I see that Arabia already brought it in-character.
So ignore my comment above.

[Persia (DoC)]

Maybe Britannia tricked Arabia, but if he did, he did it in character, and there's nothing wrong with tricking another civ in-character, so please bring it to the story thread.

And I agree with Rome that we should only post here using our anonymous accounts.
Now it's impossible to see who's double posting. (ie.: "I agree" and "So do I" both coming from the same person) and in-character political posts from ooc-accounts.

[India (DoC)]

Again ! Britannia come on! You tricked me and you know it.

Persia said that they had already traded techs to Britannia just for vouchers so maybe they thought that it's a normal way and everyone is kind enough to share techs. (They also said that They would had given monarchy to the Britons for the same voucher so nothing game changing happened really)
