Talk:Vive la Revolution! (Map Game)

France
Just so to correct a small fact: France OTL is still a monarchy and will be until 1792; and in 1789 Louis is still in absolute power de jure. France will become the revolutionary Kingdom of the French only in October of 1789; anything earlier than that, Louis is still in control of an absolute monarchy. Fed (talk) 17:53, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

thanks fed, i didnt know that to be honest, and thats NOT sarcasm DeanSims 17:55, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

Map
I'm sorry, but we need a map. Can a mapmaker please obtain one? Monster Pumpkin 18:40, February 19, 2012 (UTC)


 * Already done. ChrisL123 19:15, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

Colonies
Is there some way to play as the spanish coloneis that are about to emancipate from the mother country? I want to play as the United Provinces of the Rio de la Plata (Argentina), may be a could play the colony as a kind of "vassal" of Spain until the indepencende, the local government was anyway very de facto autonomous by the time. Also, I'd like to be mapmaker too. --Galaguerra1 18:44, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

sure, you have my permission, where is the games real creator though, it would be nice if he would join us. Britain will support you if you declare independance. But start by wrting that Dissent against the crown is rising for a turn or two. DeanSims 19:19, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

Be calm, I know my own country's history. I'm not thinking about getting independent until, at least, 1810 decade. Until then, I will being administrating the viceroyality. --Galaguerra1 19:25, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

Mapmaker
Hi. I'm SS and I'm playing for the Ottoman Empire. Can I be a mapmaker? I have quite some experience in maps. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 21:46, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

sure you can. DeanSims 15:14, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

Alliances
I have realized a major flaw in the game. ALL THE PLAYING NATIONS ARE ALLIED TO OTHERS! THERE ARE NO OPPOSING ALLIANCES!

For example, the USA is allied with the UK and France. France is allied with Austria and Prussia. Austria is allied with Russia, Prussia, and the Ottoman Empire. What happens if a war erupts? Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 22:57, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

Alliances
Okay, in under a day, this has gone wild implausible. Why the hell with Britain & the US, bitter enemies, ally?! And why would Austria, Russia and Prussia, the principal counter-revolutionary forces and in Austria's case MARIE ANTOINETTE'S HOMELAND WHOSE BROTHER IS IN POWER be friendly with France? AND WHY THE HELL IS FRANCE INVADING ME WITHOUT EVEN GIVING A REASON AND GIVING ME TIME TO ARM UP LAST TURN?! This map game is just RWG trying to turn this into yet another of his Napoleon wanks.

To add to this:


 * Turkey and Austria are mortal enemies and will be until the XX Century.


 * Russia, Austria and Turkey are competing and warring permanently.

Fed (talk) 23:22, February 19, 2012 (UTC)
 * Near to every nation France is diplomacing with was counter-revolutionary.

Prussia is not an ally with France, and is quite sore over the monarchy's overthrow. I'm not sure on the other parts. Monster Pumpkin 23:24, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

Basically, the picture at right demonstrates the alliances now. And I agree with Fed. How exactly are the Brits and Americans allies? The US just won the revolution! And US-UK tension didn't calm down until the 20th Century, around the late 1890s! Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 23:33, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

I would like to piont out that Prussia's only ally right now is Britain, as they only signed a non-agression pact with Austria. Monster Pumpkin

Let's see the implausible in the graph:


 * US and Britain allied


 * France and Britain


 * Austria and Prussia


 * Austria and Russia


 * Austria and France


 * Ottomans and Russia


 * Ottomans and Austria

... Yeah. Nothing implausble at all, right? *sarcasm* Fed (talk) 23:38, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

And yes, the invasion of France was just downright implausible, especially since Fed didn't post in 1789.0. And technically, Prussia is a French ally, since it is allied with the UK and Austria, both of whom are allied to France.

And Selim III, in actual history, attempted to end the Russo Turkish War of 1787. And here, his goal is accomplished, since the Russians accepted here. And the Ottoman Empire was also at war with the Austrian at the same time; Selim III also tried to end this war, and did in success here. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 23:41, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

Peace isn't equal to friendly enough terms for an alliance. Fed (talk) 23:42, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

Just because you are allies with someone does not mean you are allies with their allies; Prussia is angry with France at the moment. Monster Pumpkin 23:43, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

I (Austria) am willing to give up my alliance with Russia and the Ottomans and only keeping my alliance with France (as well as non-aggression pact with Prussia.) ChrisL123 00:03, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

America is willing to give up my alliance with everybody, and become isolationists. Enclavehunter 00:04, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

All alliances should be dropped, and the game should be restarted as per the proposal below. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 00:08, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

Proposal
I propose that we start the game again at 1315 EST tomorrow. Everything will start again, including who plays for which nation. And we should ban some implausibilities. Or we could revise the entire game. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 23:43, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

I say let the people keep their nations, but restart the game. Enclavehunter 23:44, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

I agree with Enclavehunter. And RWG, could you PLEASE read a little about the early phases French Revolution? Fed (talk)

Some of the players in the game are wrongly using the power of their nation. I think Spain, Russia, the US, the Ottomans, and the Viceroyalty can keep their players. The others need to be re-assigned to different nations.

But if you disagree, that's fine. But RWG cannot retain France. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 23:49, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

What has Prussia done to lose their player? All they have done is invade a German Duchy and establish a colony. Monster Pumpkin 23:51, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

I think everybody keeps their nations, but allowed moderators to delete implausibility without warning. Enclavehunter 23:54, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

This oh so much. Fed (talk) 23:57, February 19, 2012 (UTC)

Oh, sorry Monster Pumpkin. I forgot Prussia was playing. Prussia is probably the only country that has not done anything implausible.

Nah it cool. But really, we do need a method of rooting out impluasibility. Monster Pumpkin 00:02, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

MY PROPOSAL: ALL IN FAVOR?
 * 1) Everything so far is erased.
 * 2) Everyone keeps their nations except the UK and France. France because it is being too imperialistic and the UK for implausibly siding with Napoleon.
 * 3) Restart the game in1800, to make everything different.
 * 4) Mods can immediately delete implausibility.
 * 5) All ongoing wars continue raging.

 * Enclavehunter 00:08, February 20, 2012 (UTC)
 * Only to conditions 1-3. I think that the Spanish-French war should not be happening at the moment, and that mods at least explain why it is impluasible. Monster Pumpkin 00:09, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

 * I will stay as the UK, but the rest I agree to, I can tone down my pro-French feelings. DeanSims 15:17, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

By ongoing wars, I mean wars that are happening at the start of 1800 in OTL. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 00:12, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

I'm in favor. If we're gonna start in 1800 then may be the UK will be not an "ally" but an enemy of the Viceroyality. I think may be Spain should react before some of the policies that the "revolurionaries" will implement on the Rio de la Plata. --Galaguerra1 01:41, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

We need one more vote for a majority. But does the new Japan guy count? Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 03:01, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

Lets restart the game, the mods and mapmakers all get one vote each. someone please make a poll.

First of all, sorry for causing the trouble. My proposal is that the wars are cancelled and that we can choose a new nation. How about that? RandomWriterGuy 19:38, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

THE FINAL PROPOSAL FOR VIVE LA REVOLUTION!
POINTS: FORBIDDEN: ALL IN FAVOR?
 * The Game shall start in 1800 Common Era and shall begin 00:00 UTC on February 21, 2012 (tomorrow).
 * Any wars that are happening OTL in 1800 shall continue unless a peace is reached.
 * The moderators will first tell someone their post is implausible. If the player does not fix their post, it can and will be erased.
 * Everyone can keep their nations.
 * Napoleon's France and the United Kingdom cannot be allies.
 * The British shall not be allies with the Viceroyalty.
 * Anything that was posted in 1789 cannot be reposted.
 * Invasions are variant. No country can invade another country unless their casus belli is approved by the mods.
 * The United States cannot be allies with the United Kingdom until 1870. (Close enough to the 20th Century)
 * Implausibility of course!
 * France cannot invade any nation until two years after Napoleon's rise to power!

ALL IN FAVOR? Agreed Against

What about: France has some sort of "Revolutionary limitations" until the factions are stabilised, and the absolute monarchies (Spain, Austria, Turkey, basically every nation in Europe but Britain) have "absolutist limitations" or "Enlightenment limitations" until the revolutionaries are at least partially satisfied, in which they cannot invade as many nations or do as many expansion and military turns? ~Fed

How about we can choose different nations if we like. (or switching them with other people). RandomWriterGuy 22:22, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

My POV On Things
Now I'm not saying that I should have overhwhelming say in running this map game, but as its intellectual creator, and a player, I believe I should have a say in what goes on here. I simply ask that the starting year be kept at 1789, or simply be pushed forward to 1792 to keep the original idea of the map game intact. This is of course nonbinding to anyone else who plays or mods this game, but I simply ask for you all to reconsider on my behalf. Ownerzmcown 22:10, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

At last we find the creator. By all means, 1792 seems like a good compromise between '89 and 1800. 1792 is the starting time in the proposal then.

And 1792 is a reasonable year. GW was elected to his second term, but Napoleon CANNOT come to power yet. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 22:28, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

I am glad you have all seen reason, this compromise is hopefully the starting point of this site's next big map game, here's hoping. Ownerzmcown 22:47, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

When does the game re-start? Fed (talk) 21:42, February 21, 2012 (UTC)

I started it, not sure if it's cool with any of the mods, but seeing as you had all agreed to with all this....I decided to go on- Ianian58 (China)

By the way, can the mods control France's actions together as some sort of "mod event"? Given the focus of this map game, we kinda need a France... Fed (talk) 02:57, February 22, 2012 (UTC)


 * Well, seeing as France's player traded, we could have one of the other countries trade. I could do it, seeing as I'm a mod myself. We should have a kind of election on who wants to play France and then we vote for it. ChrisL123 03:02, February 22, 2012 (UTC)

So?
A simple question...When do we pass the turn? --Galaguerra1 16:52, February 24, 2012 (UTC)

Since nobody has started the next turn, I assume the mods are a bit lazy, have forgotten, or don't have time, I will start the next turn, I ask any mod to delete it if it's not right. Ianian58 19:06, February 24, 2012 (UTC)

South Africa
I want to ask, because I'm pretty confused here. How is it possible for the UK to expand further into South Africa if they never had a presense in that particular area, and the area around South Africa, particularly the Cape of Good Hope, belongs to the Dutch? Razgriz 2K9 16:48, February 25, 2012 (UTC)

they had it at the start of the game, check the map.

The British or the Dutch? From what I saw on the map, the Dutch (that would be me) had South Africa. I did not see any British presense in the general area of Southern Africa, though granted, the map hasn't been updated. Razgriz 2K9 17:34, February 25, 2012 (UTC)

Cape colony is Dutch right now and will be OTL until 1795. Fed (talk) 19:51, February 25, 2012 (UTC)

Britain made a colony from what I understand. Map games don't always have to follow OTL history. ChrisL123 20:01, February 25, 2012 (UTC)

Siam and Burma
Currently, only Burma has the color, Siam should as well as they are in loose confederation. LurkerLordB (Talk) 01:19, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

Since no official mapmaker did anything, I fixed it myself. LurkerLordB (Talk) 23:16, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

I'm sorry. I wasn't sure where Burma was. I asked in the Isuses section. Then today I looked it up and went to fix it and saw that you did it. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 02:02, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

Chinese Claims in Alaska.
That map there, is the map of Chinese claims. ~Ianian58

Um, Russia had already begun colonising Alaska (it discovered it in 1733) and it had several Russian outposts. It was not incorporated until about 1799, but your claims conflict with Russian trade posts. Fed (talk) 01:34, March 3, 2012 (UTC)

I believe Alaska was mainly uncolonized by the Russians; although you are right, some claims here are interferng with Russian ports, Alaska remained largely uncolonized until the mid-late 19th century, sure, some Russian populace here and there, some official cities here and there, but Alaska remained still largely uncolonized. I'll make an edited map tomrrow though. Ianian58 01:47, March 3, 2012 (UTC)

Ottoman-Persian War

Spanish-Pact of Iron Peace Talks
Let the talks begin. DeanSims 19:32, March 4, 2012 (UTC)

Spain shall: here is the PoI Proposal -- The rest Spain will agree upon.
 * Give independence to its viceroyalties in a Commonwealth-like plan, since your cassus belli is 'imperialism by Spain'. The exception to this is Cuba and New Granada.
 * Grant a heavy tribute to the PoI.
 * Hand over claims to Oregon in exchange to Gibraltar.
 * Accept special trade exceptions frpm the PoI.
 * Be given Gibraltar
 * Spain will not have to pay tribute.
 * Spain will pace all of its North and South American possessions under control of the PoI Council, and they will be granted indepdance through a system of commonwealth status.
 * Gibraltar will be ceded to Spain in return for nothing
 * Cuba, Puerto Rico, Hispaniola, and OTL Chile will be allowed to remain under Spanish control.
 * Spain shall retina all of its European possessions
 * OTL Louisiana Territory will be ceded to the UK as well as OTL' Republic of Texas.
 * The states of Mexico, New Granada, Peru, Chile and Rio de la Plata shall be given independence directly with the King of Spain as head of atate and a democratic or monarchic (fir for them to decide upon.) head of government.
 * Louisiana and Texas will become a co-protectorate of the UK and Spain.

No offense, but I think giving Louisiana and Texas to Britain is ASB. Try sharing Louisiana with the US and UK and give Texas to the US. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 20:11, March 4, 2012

What year did you first gain it? It was never shown on the map and I never saw you saying that. Monster Pumpkin 20:28, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

tasmania is thought be an island of Austrlaia, and when I siad i was colonatiing austrlaia i also sent some to Tasmania. DeanSims 20:31, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

I'm not really going to accept that. If you know what the place is called then you should say that you are colonising that specific place, not using a generic term because then other players are not sure what is happening, as in this case. Monster Pumpkin 20:34, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

Well, I just want that little island. I had it since I became a mapmaker. I secretly colored it Ottoman green. Here's my proposal: at right. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 22:19, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

China here (Quing Dynasty), don't really want anything here, but, I believe the British should get a bit more, considering they are the greater power and all; they could probably kick the Dutch and Ottoman out if they want, just, saying. Ianian58 20:35, March 11, 2012 (UTC)

Well, we gave Britain more than we originally wanted to and Ottomans and Dutch combined could hypothetically bring an end to Pax Britannica. The Dutch and British are allied, so need in kicking the Dutch out. The Ottomans and British are not allied, but we have a peace pact and we are an observor state in the Pact of Iron. And the Ottomans had a colony there for a while, so, yeah. No need in kicking anyone out. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 22:06, March 11, 2012 (UTC)

Can I take France?
After a while as playing as China, I've been noticing Britain has been largely god-nation lately, and realized they have no main competitor, I wondered where nations like France was, and then I realized France was controlled by mods; and no big event from France and all. So I was wondering, can I take control of France? No I won't make a Quing-French Dynasty. Or will France stay strictly for mods? Ianian58 00:03, March 12, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah you can probably do that. Just don't combine your nations like you said and you will be fine. Monster Pumpkin 00:09, March 12, 2012 (UTC)

Maybe both of us can do it. China and the Ottoman Empire are both major Asian powers. Let's take turns or something. I won't make King Louis the Sultan of Turkey either. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 00:46, March 12, 2012 (UTC)

France taking that much is implausible. LurkerLordB (Talk) 20:33, March 16, 2012 (UTC)

No it's not. It's France. We're in the middle of Pax Francia. France is the world superpower right now. Also, there's nobody there, so why can't we claim it?

the ttoman empire colonizing north america or any of the americas is crazy. the ottomans cant colonize any land in america it isnt even possible, colonizing austrlaia was already stretching it, and if France conitnues violate Americas colonies, war will result. DeanSims 15:01, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

The colonization by the Ottoman Empire is not crazy, they could occupy all of Arabia, then its possible for them to colonize Alaska. As for France and its colonial expansion, yes they did expand into my colonies (had an pretty amount of land around an small french colony, and when France expanded, they took an bunch of my territory.) It's really not an problem, as much of the colonial issue was settled. Enclavehunter 15:07, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

I'm just going to go off and quit this map game. Someone took French colonies off the map. I understand that the Alaskan colony was messed up, but why Africa? I'm just this close to quitting. I might also quit Battle for Earth. And besides, we fixed up the problem with America. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 17:42, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

Don't quit either man. The French colonies we taken off because Sims didn't have the recent map at the time. They are still there. Also, don't quit Battle for Earth either, you and I are about to become ancient and supremely powerful. Monster Pumpkin 17:44, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

Yes, please don't quit. The map will be fixed, I'll do it myself if I have too. Enclavehunter 17:46, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

All right. Lol, MP, I meant as Canada, because they're about to destroy and enslave humanity. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum.

Pact of Iron vs Mexico
I'm going to use the algorithm:

America and Britain

 * Location: 5
 * Strength: 12 (Britain, greater industry, greater population) Prussia, America, and Britain.
 * Tatical Advantage: 1
 * Motive: 5 (Poltical)
 * Random.org: 7
 * Total: 30

Mexico

 * Location: 5
 * Strength: 2
 * Tatical Advantage: 5
 * Random.org: 3
 * Motive: 5
 * Total:20

Result

 * Crushing Pact of Iron Victory, Mexico is forced to surrender under the terms that it will still stay independant.

Discussion
Wouldn't Mexico have a strenth of 3 as it is participating? Swollow

no, it has a small population and barely any army. it would have one at best. DeanSims 15:05, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

Actually, Mexico has expanded its army and navy, but does have an small population, so I'll suggest that it be an two. Enclavehunter 15:08, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

mexcios motive shouldnt be 10, it is imperialistic and the Paacrt is trying to stop it from being an imperialsitic monster, its motive should be a five, because its not life or death, its political. DeanSims 16:34, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

From what I've seen, not all the nations in the Pact of Iron declared war, not all of them sent soldiers; and lovely how you sent an entire perfectly sized force with the U.S in one turn and completely defeating them in one turn. And yes, Mexico's motive should be ten, it can considered life or death since following that defeat they would collapse economically and fall in to chaos due to sudden loss of land. And Mexico has a decent enough population at the time to have a decent army. Ianian58 22:51, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

There is no way a war would be over in six months. LurkerLordB (Talk) 22:55, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

The above posters are right, Prussia didn't send any soldiers (yet), only ships. Besides, considering Mexico's size, no nation could defeat it so soon. Extend it by a few years. Monster Pumpkin 23:06, March 17, 2012 (UTC)

New Algorthim
Due to a somewhat odd Algorthim I thought I may propose a new one, changes and new things are in bold. Ianian58 16:15, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

LocationEdit

 * At the war: 5
 * Next to the war: 4
 * Close to the war: 3
 * Far from the war: 1
 * Halfway around the world: -1 (By negative, I mean it loses one, due to wasting massive supplies, poor main comands, and wariness from troops from the mainland.)

StrengthEdit

 * Every nation militarily helping with belligerents/defenders: 3
 * Side with greater population: 3
 * Side with greater industry: 3
 * Control of the Seas: 3+ attackers, or 5+ defenders. (The nation with a superior navy in that area, that has control of the seas of the areas, has a major advantage, due to blockading ports, or cutting off the enemy's supplies. 
 * Tired Military: If defending nation is fighting another war already somewhere else: -4
 * If attacking force is fighting another war somewhere else: -4
 * Size of Army: (Nation with a larger army) If attacker has a larger army: 3+ 
 * If attacking army is smaller -3
 * Vice versa for defenders.

Tactical AdvantageEdit

 * Attacker’s advantage: 1
 * Defender’s advantage: 2
 * Home is desert: Defenders +3, attackers -3
 * Island: 4
 * General: 
 * (Depending on who is leading the army, if it is detailed and the genral is historically sucessful.)
 * Attacker: 1+ Defender: 1+
 * Random.orgEdit

MotiveEdit

 * Life or death (country’s sovereign existence is threatened): 10
 * Social/moral: 6
 * Religious: 4-7 (Depending which nation, if religious like Ottoman, or Siam-Burma, it goes to 7, if it's a nation like the U.S, France or Britain it's 4. 
 * Political: 5
 * Economical: 3

 * Please say talk here. Ianian58 16:15, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

I like this new algorithim. It will help in the Napoleonic Wars. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 16:04, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

Yes, this far more better. Enclavehunter 16:06, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

Forgot to put something, in superior army size, it should range from 3-9, depending on the size of the force n the other war and the size of the place where the army is.

Napoleonic Wars
The Napoleonic Wars have begun! Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 16:04, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

How did it begin? Who did Napoleon declare war on other than Morocco, who isn't allied with anyone else? Monster Pumpkin 16:09, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

Well, in a way it can be considered a form-of Napoleonic War, due to Napoleon being the one who started the war against Morocco, a nation like Great Britain may interfere which may make the war suddenly large-scale. Ianian58 16:17, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

Any war waged by Napoleon can be regarded as part of the Napoleonic Wars. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 18:24, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

True, but the Napoleonic Wars were named Napoleonic Wars because they were wars aimed to take him off the throne by other powers (the coalition) and so on. It can be regarded as a Napoleonic War (Morrocan-Franco war) but not truly though. If so, World War 2 might as well be called Hitleric War. Ianian58 03:07, March 26, 2012 (UTC)

That would be Franco-Morrocan War, becuase Franco is used as the of War name. As far I know, I think they were named so because they part of Napoleon's campaign to conquer Europe. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 03:09, March 26, 2012 (UTC)

The Issue about Me and DeanSims
Recently, DeanSims has made a obnoxious lie that I attacked Colombia and called for the world to attack me. It is so unfair, THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE ABOUT THIS AND APPARENTLY, DEANSIMS MUST BE TAUGHT A LESSON!!! Right now, I am asking all of you: how will DeanSims be dealt with (or punished)?

RandomWriterGuy 02:10, March 30, 2012 (UTC)

Well actually, I did go through the records, and you did say that you were invading Colombia, three times in fact. They are listed below, directly taken from the game itself:

1802.0 <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif";">Mexico <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-weight: normal;">begins to invade Colombia and ask the Pact of Steel to not intervene in exchange for no harm to Britain's South American territories.

<p style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 13.5pt; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">1802.5 Mexico: It officially conquers half of Colombia, still not harming Britain's South American territories.

1803.0 <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif";">Mexico <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-weight: normal;"> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-weight: normal;">asks Britain to not attack the country, and in exchange, they will stop attacking Colombia.

However, this was some time ago, and seeing as how Britain did not raise an incident until now, it would appear that the incident was passed over. You did not change the records, that is fact, and DeanSim's behaviour in that regard was inappropriate. However, he will not punished for one mistaken incident. Verdict will only be issued when all the mods deem it appropriate. Monster Pumpkin 02:21, March 30, 2012 (UTC)

While I am right about this issue, you are also right. I eventually forgot about it because I felt it. Yeah, Dean needs to be updated on world events! OR I AM MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADDD!!!!!!!!!RandomWriterGuy 02:26, March 30, 2012 (UTC)

It seems bizarre that Britain would attack Mexico when they were no longer attacking Colombia (years and turns, almost a week) after they stopped. Currently, the most plausible reasons for DeanSims attacking Mexico are a)he read the pan-American initiatives which involved Colombia, and mistook this diplomacy for war b)As he was reading through old turns, he mistakenly thought that RWG posted that in 1805 c)The UK government is so slow that they take years to deal with incidents that have already happened or d)Deansims wanted to declare war on Mexico anyways so he drudged up this old incident to start a war over. Whatever the way, Mexico was not attacking Colombia when Britain attacked, and RWG did not try and alter his turns to change anything to cover it up, both of which Deansims said happened.

Lurk got it. Dang edit conflicts. Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 03:03, March 30, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you thank you thank you Lurk. I would have to admit both of you are right. But who cares about Colombia now?! Also, I demand that DeanSims be BANNED FROM THIS GAME FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!

RandomWriterGuy 03:44, March 30, 2012 (UTC)

alright im sorry, i made a mistake. sorry rwg, nothing personal i must have mest up the turns. i fixed the post so no war has occured. DeanSims 14:07, March 30, 2012 (UTC)

ASB?
I am very concerned about Britain in this game. It is expanding so freaking fast that it is the juggernaut of the world! I think expanding in this some sort of rate is just too much! Should DeanSims' expansions be slowed? RandomWriterGuy 21:48, March 30, 2012 (UTC)

It dosn't need to be slowed, it needs to be stopped.Enclavehunter 22:23, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
