Weird Al
I am also a fan of Weird Al, however, my research places him around Southern California, so most likely he is dead in the 1983DD world. That is unless you have proof that he was away from a target area in 1983. Mitro 04:03, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Nothing personal, but the TL is a dystopia. Try researching to find out if he was somewhere else when DD happened.  Mitro 13:05, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Virginia
I just got back from a wedding this weekend, so I'll probably look at the chages on Monday. Mitro 21:41, September 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * I reviewed your changes and took the liberty to make some changes/additions of my own. Obviously you have the right to disagree, but I hope you consider them at least.
 * First, I shrunk the size of the state. Considering the radiation likely to effect the region, along with social instability, the entire area needs to be shrunk to the most rural parts of the area if any state hopes to survive.
 * Second, I replaced Myers with MG Thompson, the historical commander of the 101st airborne at the time of Doomsday. To go along with the new size of Virginia I had him relocate the 101st to West Virginia and after taking Charleston, using it as a base for further conquest.
 * Third, I dropped references to Fort Knox. Honestly I don't think the fort would be much use to Thompson.  Trade with Superior would be a trickle at best and without a working port he would not be able to trade with the outside world.  He may secure the fort and take the gold for later use, but in the long run it is very unimportant for the survival of the state.
 * I made some other changes as well and added some ideas of my own. If you find these changes satisfactory I can see what I can do about getting this graduated.  Mitro 21:20, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Maybe, but then again maybe not. People with the skills you list are already in short supply in OTL, and there won't be that many just randomly wandering around 2 decades after Doomsday. Many would probably have already establshed themselves in smaller survivor communities, raised families, maybe even reached positions of power or influence themselves because of their knowledge. They would be teachers as well as practicioners of their expertise. Why would they give that up to move to a military dictatorship? Granted its possible the place they live now is not much better, or even worse, but once a place is home its hard to leave. Also why is Norfolk intact? The largest naval base in the world is located there and NATO's Supreme Allied Commander Atlantic is there. I feel it would have been hit by a Soviet nuke and it is marked on the Doomsday report as being hit. Plus it is still some distance from Virginia as it is. The Virginians would have to secure and rebuild the instrature in most of Virginia before they could get to the nuked city and then they would have to rebuild the port facilities that have been destroyed by the nuclear bomb. That is going to take years in not decades. It would make more sense to go to a smaller Virginian port. Mitro 17:51, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

Hey I am from WV (or in Doomsday, Virginia). I assumed Wheeling would be a state. So here is a American Senater from WV named Robert Byrd and I want to know if I can add him into the story.

War in Canada
I honestly don’t think Virginia will be involved in the upcoming war in Canada. Though closer then New Britain, they are still relatively far that supply and transporting any soldiers there would be a logistical nightmare (especially since it would have to be done on land). The cost would also be too much for the Virginia economy to bear. Also much like New Britain they have nothing to gain from going to war. Virginia likely has little to no contact with either Saguenay or Canada so declaring war or not would effect little of their relationship with either party. They would gain no territory from this or any other benefit if they were on the side that won. Mitro 18:57, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

Niverville
To answer your question, I really don't know. I'm not an expert on nuclear weaponry, perhaps you should ask someone else. However, as only one nuke hit Winnipeg, I think you have a pretty good chance. --DarthEinstein 22:51, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

Neues Deutschland
Just some example sentences to show the difference between "neues Deutschland" and "Neudeutschland":

Oskar Lafontaine versprach dem Menschen ein neues Deutschland.

Oskar Lafontaine promised the people a new Germany.

Neues Deutschland therefore refers to a revitalised, improved Germany. Not so much a new country in its own right. An ideal name therefore to be the name of a newspaper, or to use for hollow election promises.

Die Siedler gründeten Neudeutschland.

The settlers founded New Germany.

And this the kind of New Germany you were referring to, a new country in its own right. I guess the only way to distinguish between the two is the capitalisation of the N in "New". Please keep in mind that these translator machines are only good for passive reading, and even then they can twist the very meaning of a text. --Karsten&#160;vK (talk) 12:38, November 5, 2009 (UTC)

Cave City
You and GOPZACK have my blessing to use Cave City in regards to your respective countries. --BrianD 19:03, November 8, 2009 (UTC)

Future of Cave City
I want all of old Kentucky, parts of old Missouri, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio and Arkansas. You can do what you will with Tennessee, West Virginia, Virginia and parts of Ohio, North Carolina. I say we split old Fort Campbell 50/50. I'll take the parts in Kentucky you can have the Tennessee part. I also think our two nations should forge closer diplomatic connections. --GOPZACK 01:55, November 12, 2009 (UTC)

If you would like a road through Kentucky so you can get to Fort Campbell The Commonwealth of Kentucky would be interested in giving you such a road. I apologize if I came across as a bully that was not my intention. I want nothing but good strong relations between our two nations I just want some set boundaries for our respective nations--GOPZACK 04:12, November 12, 2009 (UTC)

If you would like to visit the Patton Museum, if by Patton Museum you mean an abandoned building with all the resources stripped from it your more then welcome to visit anytime. As for a capital I'm thinking Lexington and whoever the mayor is of Lexington would probably do. Now the area in white represent areas under Kentucky Control The areas in the yellow box are territory Kentucky claims. We also reserve the right to expand into Indiana, Illinois and Missouri as we see fit. Thus giving you part of Kentucky and ALL of Tennessee --GOPZACK 16:03, November 12, 2009 (UTC)

Ah I see, perhaps we would give you a copy of the blueprints for something in return? Like I said we are interested in forging closer relations --GOPZACK 16:26, November 12, 2009 (UTC)

The Deal
As for what I would like I want two things. #1 I would like all of Kentucky not in a shaded color and #2 an alliance between our two nations. --GOPZACK 20:29, November 12, 2009 (UTC)

I believe such an arrangement can be made for a road. Now seeing as we both want an alliance between our two nations would you be willing to spilt old Fort Campbell 50/50 then we could both invest in it's renewal saving you money. Our two nations could run joint exercises and such does that interest you? --GOPZACK 04:14, November 13, 2009 (UTC)

Very good sir I think we should finalize some type of treaty very soon--GOPZACK 17:43, November 13, 2009 (UTC)

I just saw your idea for a "Southern Compact" or the "Dixie Accord" that could be the name of such a treaty--GOPZACK 17:45, November 13, 2009 (UTC)

Portland, Tennessee
I agree, I say we make joint statement announcing our support for them. My expedition teams should be in the area very soon. --GOPZACK 18:00, November 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yank, please see comments on southern United States/Portland/"Southern Pact/Dixie Accord" under General Discussion on the 1983:DD talk page. There are a ton of ideas here that I think are worth exploring.--BrianD 19:12, November 13, 2009 (UTC)

RE: Tile mistake
oh don't worry about it, it's fine --GOPZACK 18:53, November 13, 2009 (UTC)

Formal Boarder
Just to confirm you only claim the parts of Kentucky that were colored on that map correct? If so lets make that the formal boarder --GOPZACK 18:02, November 14, 2009 (UTC)

Perhaps OTL Congressman Hal Rogers (R) could be the governor. As for the capital Pikeville could work, the mayor of Pikeville could be the governor as well. --GOPZACK 20:44, November 14, 2009 (UTC)

Alright I've made a formal map of our two nations based off of the info you've provided. I'm unsure what territory you control in North Carolina and Tennessee so if you could let me know that would be great and I'll add it in. --GOPZACK 18:40, November 15, 2009 (UTC)

I've added in your North Carolina Claims and my proposed plan to divide the former state of Ohio --GOPZACK 00:51, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

I can do that, I also recommend if you've got any territorial gains in mind you do them soon before the LON claims them or protects them --GOPZACK 02:14, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

Yes we are. don't worry about all that other crap :) --GOPZACK 16:56, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

New map
Sorry, I've been busy and haven't been working on it much. I think this week sometime I'll finish it up though. I'm sorry for how long it has taken. --DarthEinstein 17:00, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

Republic of Iowa
I just wanted to say thanks for finishing the article of for me and i hope you have a good thanksgiving --Owen1983 04:16, November 21, 2009 (UTC)

Ohio
Kentucky would like Ottawa County other then that it's fine --GOPZACK 02:00, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

Let's go back to splitting adams county then. Besides if Kentucky was to get Ottawa county you still hold a large strip of land along the Erie Shoreline --GOPZACK 02:53, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

Thought
Here's a thought, a joint Virginia/ Kentucky exploration of Washington D.C, hmm?

Virginia Flag
Sorry Yank but I am going to have to decline your request to be a judge. I am going to be disappearing for a few weeks and won't be able to properly judge the flags. Mitro 22:29, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

Sure I'll be a judge --GOPZACK 22:51, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

Chumash republis
I was reading that you had difficulty in adding the Chumash Republic to the world map and i am pleased to announce its been added to the map i proposed --Owen1983 17:47, December 11, 2009 (UTC)

Blog
Yank, that blog post was really not the best way to handle the situation, that is why I deleted it. Now I believe your right and that Mr. X overreacted a little by your comment, but he said on my talk page he is not looking for an argument. I would suggest dropping it because making this bigger then it really is a waste of time. Mitro 02:56, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

Map
Could you please fill in on this map which territory Virginia controls? --GOPZACK 02:08, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

Presidents of the CSA
Please refrain from expanding or editing upon the article, because I have not completed it yet. You have been expanding upon my article and adding things that I have not agreed to and putting in things that are against my ideas. As the author of this timeline, I support that you are inspired by my timeline to the point in getting involved. But please bring your thoughts to the talk pages, and not taking it on the fly. Thank you very much for your cooperation. —Comic Sans MS&quot;; color:#00FF00" _rte_style="font-family: &quot;Comic Sans MS&quot;; color:#00FF00" _rte_attribs=" style=&#039;font-family: Comic Sans MS; color:#00FF00&#039;"&gt;Nuclear Comic Sans MS&quot;; color:#0000FF" _rte_style="font-family: &quot;Comic Sans MS&quot;; color:#0000FF" _rte_attribs=" style=&#039;font-family: Comic Sans MS; color:#0000FF&#039;"&gt;Vacuum  15:11, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

Gift
I think thats a great idea but I think Bunning would use this estate in Virginian Kentucky as a vacation residence while keeping his main residence in Kentucky. Also Bunning may be leaving the Presidency in January of 2011 his public life is by no means over. I may use him as a goodwill ambassador or something. --GOPZACK 19:54, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

I like the idea but before I sign onto this I would like to know the fully plan for this alliance. Like the members, goals ect ect... --GOPZACK 22:05, February 20, 2010 (UTC)
