OOC

The problem is Belinda, Capo is making changes to the peace treaty agreements based on where he thinks the game is at... I would rather not have to go down the same path twice as far as negotiations go.

As it is I have located the following save which is end of my turn, ready for your turn Belinda (or your subs). I would rather have a save from your turn, but apparently there is none.

This is the latest save.... Please all look and see....

OOC

Is it just me or are Deitys reponses here getting less and less.... Come on Deity let us know what the Austrlaians are upto now.. I know you love the Role Playing as much as if not more than most... So get Paul off his arse and get him to post here !!!!!!

[drake]

Deity seems to be on autopilot

Well, if the save goes back too far, simply recreate the events that have already happened Raz. Any peace treaty/cease fire should occur AFTER your turn, as it has already been played once....

Like Belinda said basically Just re-do everything as best as possible and move on!

Anyone have anyone who will sub for the Mongols?

[Rasputin]

OOC

Yeah I got up in a grump this morning and have deleted all my nasty repsonses above..... !!!!

[belinda9]

thankyouthankyouverymuch

restraint is always apppreciated

Probably Zulu and EU and FDP most affected by if you use save from mid-Israel turn or post-Istrael turn......it's all before my turn so I don't care.
If everyone gets a chance to see it before gametime.

I would just hate to see this session all explode on me unexpected-like when you guys have been leading us on all week that you're going to cease-fire because that's the expectation upon which I prepped my sub

Sorry I haven't got a clue about Mongolia. it took me the better part of a week to find a sub for me! 'Course, we could always do as Frank himself suggested before in reference to <ahem> another civ, and carve it up under the AI but that seems rather preemptory. HA! (just teasing)

[Rasputin]

OOC Still

Well I guess the final choice will be made in about 10 hrs time as far as Mongols goes... Hopefully someone knows a Sub !!! If Deity bothered to post here he would probalby know some one.


And just getting in early... I will need a sub for next week ....


Any interested parties contact me. PLEASE !!!!

OOC - Lessons in posting, and the understanding of posts.

There have been a lof of arguments lately (actually one) within this thread about a specific post. I am here to attempt to teach those of you who are unfamiliar with what the post represents.

Posts that show narratives, or "scenes" are merely that. A random government, let's call them Governia can not see the narratives of Federalia. No matter how pertinant to Governia they are they are not for Governia's knowledge therefore if one is made no matter how blatantly against Governia-Federalia policy and relations it is, it shouldn't actually effect anything because it shouldn't ACTUALLY be seen by the other nation.

EXAMPLE POST
__________________________________________________ __

"Samurai Zang, what say you of the Federalia soldiers?" asked Ping Pong, secretary of state for the Governia Republic.

"Samurai Zang no like Governia, me think they are stupid fat and homosexual they must be destroyed immedeatley." replied the large and down symdrome effected Zang.

"I agree you fat bastard, I hate them as well, perhaps it is time to make propoganda and give it to the president, who will in turn effect the Senate, yes, I think that is a good idea."

"Ha ha ha ha ha death to Federalia!" said Zang
__________________________________________________ __

Now, in this example let us assume Governia and Federalia are allied nations who have never been to war and have been allied for centuries. Using this situation as a backdrop Federalia should be mighty pissed off about this, however its ridiculous to assume that Federalia's government would know that these things occured.

There are two types of posts; (1) Information posts and (2) Narrative posts. Information posts are presented in a straightforward manner and usually include some type of media (Newspapers, press releases, radio broadcasts, news broadcasts or transcripts of court procedings or government meetings), these posts are international record and are open to every nation to read and react to (With the exception of incidents in which certain nations are "banned" from reading this, ie a list of nations is included in who "gets to see it"). Narrative posts, as discussed above include scenes as would appear in a movie or play, and simple retellings of stories or events that transpired in the game. These posts are not seen by the world, only the characters involved in the scene, therefore incidents that occur within the scene unless they are an incident of international occurance of some sort (A city being taken or leader being killed for instance) should be not be reacted to by other nations.

Thank you for reading, I hope this helped.

OOC on post etiquette

Whilst I agree wholeheartedly with your concept Capo, there is a difference when the post relates to the Decisions reached by a government in its parliamnetary meetings. These posts should be read by all as they are usually open matters that any spy worth his salt would acquire, as in Country A votes to ammend their Food Rations for the next twenty years, the rest of the world would hear of this. but probalby wouldnt care.

if a discussion occured outside of parlaiment then obviosuly no one should respond to this.

I rightfully responded to your parliament meeting. You and Drake wrongly responded to the personal outbursts of one of my Characters. You obviously could respond to the Pic posted showing troops returning to my provinces in Europe.


I hope this clears the air somewhat....

Now on with the Show !!!!

[Prometheus]

“DEMOCRACY!!!! You have to be kidding!?!!?”

“No General that’s correct I am giving you 10 years to prepare for the switch, our people demand freedom and that is what they will get.”

“Sir I beg you to reconsider, Democracy will make us weak.”

“No Democracy will make us strong, it is the next obvious step.”

“You better be right about this sir because if your not the people will come crying for a strong government and I will be there to answer there cries.”

“If you say so General…. Now what do the rest of you have to report.”

“Well Comrade, we are on friendly terms with all of our neighbors, the Israeli are emerging as our new neighbors in North America and the Mongols our as hospitable as ever in Asia and the Australians are as always a friendly people in the Pacific. The only issue to arise lately has been the Israeli warning of a Zulu offensive against China… but that we believe is no more than propaganda.”

“I agree with that much, thank you very much. Domestics….”

“Comrade we now are second in production manufactured product however we are smallest in population not to mention we will need new temples and marketplaces if we plan to switch to Democracy. Our mining and irrigation projects are proceeding slowly due to the difficult terrain and the new problem of pollution that is cropping up everywhere.”

“Thank you, I will see what I can do about the pollution problem as for the rest of you prepare for the switch to democracy there is a lot that needs to be done in the ten years ahead.”

I concur

On with the show!

Less talk, more play (I wish)

Letter to EU Parliament

Dear Sirs/Madams.

It is with great pride that we announce the intention of our Reich Chancellor to visit yours selves and formally sign the handover of all European FDP Provinces. The Reich Chancellor shall be expecting to get a similar document from yourselves, signing over the American Colonies.

This historic meeting shall set in stone the end to the bloodiest era in our two nations historys. We plan to commerate this meeting day the 25th August 1520, as a National Holiday. We hope that your parliament will also do the same, allowing citizens from both our countries to travel freely on that day to anywhere within the realms of both nations.

The Reich Chancellor shall visit all the European Provinces of the FDP to ensure that all troops are officialy removed to a safe distance before your officials arrive.

We hope this meets with your approval.

Signed

R. Olde

Secretary to the Recih Chancellor Hermann Georing.

Letter to the FDP...

European Union State Department
Honorable Hans Freitzweittler
1712 Dove Street
Amsterdam, NE

TO: The Reich Marshall of the Federation of Democratic Provinces.
FROM: Secretary of State Hans Freitzweittler

Dear Sir, it has come to our attention that you have apologized for the premature entrance of soldiers into the city of Venice. We hope you understand that you have not only disrupted the funeral ceremony of our fallen brother Klamens Metternich, but have also soured the people's view of the FDP in general. We understand however that you have misunderstood our minutes, possibly due to inept translation and understand that this entire incident is completely moot and thereby will make no retaliations whether by words, edicts or action.

The peace treaty originally agreed upon by Prime Minister Pagniacci will remain and be carried out at the first possible moment. We apologize for any confusion we may have caused and hope that in the future our nations will enjoy long lasting friendship and successful trade.

Thank you for your time,

H. Freitzweittler
(Secretary of State)
