Uniting Ithaca and Binghamton
I might be interested in uniting Binghamton and Ithaca into a Republic of New York. There is one problem. There is a county in between the counties that Ithaca and Binghamton control (Tompkins and Broome). It is Tioga county, and it must be brought into the union as well. After this I see at least seven surrounding counties (primarily to the east and west of the three counties) that could eventually be brought into the Republic. --Yank 02:58, December 12, 2010 (UTC)

Not really. The region the three counties in question doesn't lend itself to a survivor state name. It's rather blandly called the "Southern Tier". If this was further east it could have been called the "Catskill Republic" or the "Republic of the Catskills". Rather gruesome, but far more interesting than "Southern Tier". In fact, the Catskill Republic might actually be viable in itself. Unless there is some name from the region that has tickled your fancy, I rather think we should stick to "Republic of New York". The concept is well-used, but the people would want some connection to the past. --Yank 04:50, December 13, 2010 (UTC)

The name "Republic of the Finger Lakes" is another potential name. --Yank 04:53, December 13, 2010 (UTC)

Well I'm out of names. Do you have any ideas? --Yank 17:25, December 13, 2010 (UTC)

Yes I'm still up for unifying them. I just need someone to give the article a more solid history section. Could you help me on that? --Yank 16:43, March 25, 2011 (UTC)

Besides removing the proposal template and the discussion on the main page, you still need to archive the discussion and add the new article to the list of the main page. Please do so soon. Mitro 01:06, December 15, 2010 (UTC)

Celtic Alliance territory of Stranraer
How attached are you to the Straraer area as part of the Celtic Alliance? I've got an idea for mid/late next year that the New Scottish State (or Ur Alba as it'll be by then) could kick the Celts out of that area and take control, i'll only go ahead if it's ok with you (as the CA's Editor), and if it is ok, i'll give you some notice when its going to happen--Smoggy80 13:35, December 19, 2010 (UTC)

As i've had no message off you, am i right in assuming that this proposal is ok? it just i'll need to start setting the invasion up early in the new year--Smoggy80 13:58, December 22, 2010 (UTC)

I'll hold the invasion off for now (may happen just before winter 2011) but i'm going to build up a small military force on the border using the Scots excuse of 'protecting the Scottish homeland against the invading imperialistic Celts' sound ok?--Smoggy80 12:28, December 24, 2010 (UTC)

I've moved the border between Ur Alba (as it is now) and the Celts from the A713 to the A714, the next major road westwards, the border will be held there for the rest of the year as Ur Alba's priority is taking lands to the east. However the planned invasion of Stranraer will prob still take place late 2011 or early 2012, i'll keep you updated--Smoggy80 11:32, January 30, 2011 (UTC)

To keep you updated on the CA - Ur Alba territorial claims. Ur Alba is massing its military in the area between the two border walls near Stranraer (know as the Macintire wall and the MacDonald wall) it has also sent vessels from the Ur Alba port of Ayr with the plan to blockade the port of Stranraer. My plan is to make life difficult for the population of Stranraer by using the blockade to stop supplies from the sea and seige the town from the west using troops, then at the end of summer give the population a choice, join Ur Alba and leave the CA, or face a large military offensive. Sound Ok to you?--Smoggy80 15:14, April 16, 2011 (UTC)

Capital
I don't mind really, I really just want a beautiful capital. I liked Cape Coral, becuase its on the sea, or Saint Aug. But I would be perfectly happy with Gainesville.--Sunkist- 19:52, December 20, 2010 (UTC)

Genoa and Tuscany
Well, I figure that the war will make some kind of dispute between them, but they'll get over it. Nothing like how Venice will feel, lol.

I do see a rivalry between the two over New Rome (and to an extent Sardinia as well, though Tuscan occupation zones on the mainland would mean that Genoa will have the lead there, realistically) that would be the source of tension.

Past that, the only thing would potentially an issue would be something to do with La Spezia and past excavations.

I do see generally good relations between them, however.

Border Line
Cant remember where I said that, but I do know that I at one point believed New Rome to be further north for some reason.

I do have them being freed, mind - and given its position, it would technically be part of the zone, if that helps. You'll need to zoom in the Italy map a fair bit, but you'll see it there.

Would like to know the difference between its size on that map and what you think it should be as well, mind.

Macau
Hi. I was curious about your Macau article. I'm planning a survivor state containing most of the nearby area, and I wanted to either adopt Macau or work jointly work on the Pearl River Delta area. Thanks. Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 05:49, February 25, 2011 (UTC)


 * As a note, his survivor state is non-existent because the area is already controlled by Macau. Lordganon 12:27, February 25, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for stating the obvious. I want to have a peaceful conversation about the area with the owner. Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 14:59, February 25, 2011 (UTC)


 * Did I say that you couldn't adopt it? No. I merely stated that the planned survivor state had turned bust, because given his level of inactivity, Arstar would not notice/find it. Apologies for his reaction, Arstar. Lordganon 15:24, February 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks, LG. It's been a while, huh?
 * But yeah, Kenny, your survivor state couldn't make it off the ground if I'm in control in Macau.
 * I'd hate to be rude, but I'd have to ask that you don't adopt my survivor state and that you could move your planned state to another area, as even if I gave you Macau there is a large amount of radiation in the way from Hong Kong. Arstar 23:25, February 28, 2011 (UTC)

Not exactly sure what you mean, but okay. I didn't really care what existed, in the Pearl River Delta I just thought it was a shame there were no articles about that area. I'll probably write Hong Kong and Guangzhou, and I might write some stuff in Macau to harmonize. If there's anything I write that you don't like, let me know. But I probably won't start for awhile because of school. Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 23:33, February 28, 2011 (UTC)

Oh, I meant that the Pearl River Delta is under Macau's control, but I wouldn't mind you expanding on it, but nevertheless I'll keep an eye open for the next few weeks to see the progress. (-unsigned)

Okay, I don't have a problem with that. Thanks for your interest. How exactly do you want to cover up Macau's loss of a majority of its jobs in gambling and tourism? That's what I'm interested to know. Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 00:03, March 1, 2011 (UTC)

Ah, but how could you "cover up" the employment loss? Sure, some would become fishers or manufacturers or boat-repairmen and such, but Macau, even in its new expanded state does not have the resource or the room for a high employment state. So, we'd have a rough number of 30 to 50 percent unemployment. Arstar 00:07, March 1, 2011 (UTC)

Okay. I'll work that into the article. Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 00:20, March 1, 2011 (UTC)

Okay. Here's a map which you can veto if you want. Here. Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 04:27, March 8, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not for drastic size changes so I'd cut it back by 1/3 of how it is on your map. Arstar 02:50, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

I tried to match this. Is it okay if the areas on the map are just "claimed?" I don't feel like changing the map drastically lol. Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 03:20, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

From what I gather on the China map, the borders would be more like this.Oerwinde 11:25, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

Hmmm. Was the China map created by Arstarpool or based directly off the article? Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 14:04, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

I created the China map. The article was based on the map.Oerwinde 17:27, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

Okay. I'll have some of the areas like Hong Kong be "partially controlled." I'm not sure about expanding any further to the west than Yangjiang. The people in Taishan speak Toisaan Wa, and what I hear, Cantonese people can understand it barely. When Mandarin starts to die, the linguistic difference would be difficult, especially with perfectly Cantonese people on the other side of the river. What do you think? Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 23:02, March 10, 2011 (UTC)

Well, that makes sense considering how the map is designed. The dark color is the solid control, the lighter color is areas that are under loose control or basically defer to Macau for leadership.Oerwinde 22:04, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Okay. My idea is Macau's economy dies but rebounds as a food distribution centre. Gwongjau (Guangzhou) and Hong Kong split into several small clans of which are connected to the Triads. Macau intervenes somewhat but there is still chaos. Shenzhen is basically in the middle. Meanwhile, lands to the east are a bit more stable and rural. The official language is Cantonese, as Mandarin and Portuguese have lost their status. Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 23:12, March 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * Apologies for this note - I can't stand by and watch him ignore canon. Kenny, All three of the cities you quote are gone. As in no one left. Thus, there cannot be clans, or anything like it, from there. The official languages of Macau today, and have always been, Cantonese and Portuguese. There is a lot of people that speak it left in the area, and that would not change. Lordganon 04:19, March 12, 2011 (UTC)

I mean the people on the outskirts of the blast zone. For example, take Hong Kong. The blast would have probably beem aimed downtown, in Victoria. That means only part of Hong Kong Island would be within the zone of a pressure of 5 (kg or something i forget) psi. And that doesn't mean total destruction. There's still places like Ap Lei Island, Lantau Island, and the New Territories. Don't try to tell me the areas were rural at the time, Ap Lei is the most densely populated decent-sized island in the world. What I see is the survivors within the 5 psi limit and the people on the outlying areas scrambling for food. At first they will peacefully send firstborns to gather food in rural areas at farms or salvaging scrap in affected areas. However, once Triads and other criminals begin inciting anger among the people, it would definitely cause forms of internal violence. Violence means division, and obviously that would cause the rise of "clans" for lack of a better Chinese term.

As for national language, yes they will be Cantonese and Portuguese. The point I'm trying to make is Mandarin will be dead, English will be dead, and Portuguese is effectively dead. Cantonese unifies the region. 27 years of not applying the other languages would make them dead. Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 04:57, March 12, 2011 (UTC

Sorry Kenny, but I'd appreciate it if you would NOT change the size of Macau and only work on the economics and other asthetic changes. Arstar 21:05, March 15, 2011 (UTC)

Okay. I'll split it between Macau and "Zhongshan Republic" or something along those lines. I'll add Oumuhn, Toisaan, Yeuhnggong, and Gongmuhn to Macau and the rest will be an extremely precarious semi-survivor state. The maps took five hours. Sorry if I'm sounding annoying, but I intend to do something with the Gwong-Sam-Heung area because there's a ton of potential there. Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 22:18, March 15, 2011 (UTC)

Kenny, I am going to be stern when I say this but the size of Macau will remain as it was when I created it.

I am currently away from the community but I can trust LG and the rest of the gang to make sure you abide to realism. Remember Hong Kong was destroyed, which would put alot of radiation to the nearby area (and Macau itself, albiet not to much) but keep it small and keep it realistic. I'll come back on Friday. Arstar 22:26, March 15, 2011 (UTC)

For some reason LG got really hyped up over this question of whether Macau can have its capital temporarily moved to another city until 2005 or something, not really sure why. It doesn't go against canon at all, but: am I allowed permission to do this? My stated reason is that severe pollution and acid rain from Guangzhou would cause a decrease in air and water quality that might threaten the lives of politicians. Please reply. Thanks! Detectivekenny (Info; Talk) 20:06, June 17, 2011 (UTC)

Simply put, Arstar, he is attempting to go beyond your permissions, and as you requested, I'm not letting him.

As for his claim, simply put, wind patterns have the radiation and rain going away from Macau, and, indeed, hitting the area that he claims they would move the capital to. He has made somewhere in the area of a dozen assumptions about the matter, all of which on their own are quite silly, but as a whole are ridiculous. And this makes no sense if even one of those is an assumption, yet they all are. Simple wind pattern map - winds in the upper atmosphere, may I add - comparison shows he is wrong on the rain, and looking at a map, along with remembering his assumptions about Guangzhou and how rivers work - and how wrong he is - shows that even if it were possible, such flow of pollution would miss the city completely, going out to sea or ending up at Hong Kong. Again, he has failed to take notice of reality at all in his claims.

Not only that, by the time any of them realized such, the trouble would have passed anyways.

Far as I'm concerned, this is just Kenny being biased against Macau itself and in favor of the entirely Chinese regions inland.

Lordganon 20:31, June 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * @LG no one asked for your argument. @Arstar entire discussion can be found Talk:1983: Doomsday.  Detectivekenny (Info; Talk)  18:18, June 18, 2011 (UTC)

Pay no attention to that line of his. That is, by far not the entire matter, though I see how he would want you to believe that. And I've every right to comment on things that concern things I've been asked to do, no matter what you may think, Kenny. Lordganon 00:26, June 19, 2011 (UTC)

Celtic territorial claims
Just updating the ol'map. Just give a rough map of the Celtic Alliance's territorial claims, and what it controls, maybe a sphere of influence and I'll incorporate it in. Mumby 18:10, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

Celtic Activity
Hi Arstar. I'm wondering whether you have any plans regarding the Celtic Alliance. Despite being a major regional power, the CA has done, to put it colloquially, bugger all recently (besides the non-canon East British blockade). I think that this is rather implausible and unrealistic; as a large nation it should be acting at least as much as the other British nations, but presently isn't. Please understand that this isn't an attack on you - I fully appreciate you have other commitments that take up time you could spend on the CA.

However, this leads me to my next points: one, with other commitments it might be ideal to hand over control of the article to people with more time on their hands; and two, your commitments are mainly relevant to you (the plurality appear to be in the former US), meaning you wouldn't be able to go into as intimate detail as people with more local knowledge could. Where I'm heading is obvious: would you be interested in handing over caretaking responsibilities to us British editors?

This would be beneficial to the region as it would allow for more realistic progress, both in terms of timespan and local sentiment. It would also free you of at least one of your many responsibilities.

I can fully understand if you wouldn't wish to do this. I, in fact, agree that we should have at least some outside influence in the affairs of the British Isles so that we editors don't get carried away. And I can understand that controlling the CA is something of a prestigious position within the community. However, though I appreciate this, from my point of view you have (recently) devoted little time to the article itself, or the nation's affairs, leaving it unresponsive - and therefore unrealistic, especially in a changing timeline.

To sum up, I ask you to consider handing over the position of caretaker of the CA to either the British editors, or another member of the community. Or, failing that, to at least devote more time to the nation and its affairs. Thanks. Fegaxeyl 20:39, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

Ah! I am sorry I've taken so long to respond.

I don't have much time, but I am agreeing to hand over editing responsibilities to you and whoever else wishes to pilot the article for the time being, although I should be back by July 2nd. Arstar 02:37, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Long Time, No See
Yeah, I've more or less inherited administrative control, for better or worse.

1983 is still going. New articles have slowed a touch, but we've had no shortage of new editors make proposals in the last few months (now, if they would just finish the blasted things....)

Myself, South, Brian, Fx, Smoggy, and Fed are all fairly active. Oer and a few others a little less so, but they're still around. Vlad and Ben have returned in some form lately, too. A few newer contributors have been sticking around a bit, but have been gone as of late - I figure that they are going to be back when they have time.

Map Games are indeed the biggest thing right now, much to my annoyance.

I'd love it if you came back on some level. Past that, whether you do or not, what should I do with your articles? I've gotten a little pressure about those in the last few months, if you catch my drift.

Lordganon 01:37, December 3, 2011 (UTC)

Yep. The administration of the wiki is now more or less up to me.

Good to hear. I did make an effort to keep your things a bit updated, for all the good I could do.

If you go away again, please give more detailed instructions on what to do with you articles, lol. Would save me a lot of having to deal with lunacy xD

Unfortunately, there's no border or even empty territory between the CR and the new USA. A rejoining is really going to have to be out for the moment. A declaration that they would support rejoining in the future, should it become feasible, would work, however.

There's been a small amount of work done on the Spring, and I know that Brian and South are continuing it. I've done a bit towards it, too, with the crowning bit going to be reflected in the 2012 Superior Elections, and a small massacre in Visalia.

Welcome back
Welcome back, Arstar. Just wanted to say your new additions to California Republic look good. I hope you make good use of your Christmas vacation. The colleges around here get off this coming week, but I don't know about the high schools.

By the way, I've already secured the official union of the USAR to the USA. It's mostly on paper, of course, due to the distance. But radio contact - at least short wave - assures that the new state can communicate with the mainland. I seem to remember that you were thinking that Florida may be of a mind to rejoin the US in some way as well. I'm not sure they'd be as gung-ho as the Remnant, though, because they have made steps toward independence that the USAR never made (being the loyal remnant the way they are).

Any way, it's good to see you back in the fray. SouthWriter 04:55, December 3, 2011 (UTC)

Taiwan-Guangxi Relations
Hi Arstar, I was wondering what Taiwan would do if they bumped into a communist nation's expedition in 1993 in Jiangxi or Fujian. Thanks

Scandinator 02:17, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

What communist nation is this in particular, one thats already made or one that your planning to make? If its based out of Jiangxi or Fujian, especially Fujian, I would have to say that maybe you should look for another area for your nation as canon. Canon dictates that this was pretty much a disaster area and was under some pretty uncivilized regimes. If its a state based further inland in southern China or another SouthEast Asian state I'm interested in your proposal and working with you but Taiwan would definitely be hostile, maybe not physically but this "expedition" would likely get a staredown from the Taiwanese. They claim all of China sans Tibet already, but southern China is definitely their backyard even outside their official borders.

Nevertheless I'd be interested to hear your ideas and please contact me. I will be posting this on both your talkpage and mine but I'd prefer if we talked in this one. Arstar 04:37, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

Ok, also LG asked me to add in Macau with my questions as you are the editor in charge of it. LG recommended the location to me. I have started work on my Guangxi article. It is near Yunan and claims five of the Chinese provinces; Gunagxi, Guangdong, Hunan, Guizhou and Sichuan. Its communist but moving away from that, when the supreme leader dies the state will become a technocracy. I have loose control over half of Guangxi and Guizhou and part of Hunan.

I need to know what Macau would do if they met this nation's expedition in late 1991? and Taiwan between 1994 and 1997.Scandinator 11:26, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

About harmonizing the articles I'm only going to do the contact and immediate aftermath this week as I will not have much time till the 15th. The "supreme leader" dies of cancer in 1994 though and that allows Guangxi to become a technocracy which is the ideal form of government incorporating capitalism and communism with more of the first.

I envisage an age of mutual co-operation from 1994 and f or the future of our articles this year, one of my ideas was unification in mid 2012 and then an invasion of Yunnan in late 2012. But if you do not wish to let go of Macau I will fully understand. Post your proposal here. Scandinator 13:24, January 7, 2012 (UTC)

If you want since you don't have time I will harmonize the articles, thats up to you. The thing with Macau is that I allowed Kenny to work on it as neither I nor Yank were, and he turned it into one of the biggest dramas in the past year by completely changing it from what I had envisioned. I need to go back in and do some cleanup on that article soon, maybe today. The main reason I'm against unification is that Macau is drastically culturally different that of China, and at the time it was still a Portugese colony, thus still had a sizable European and Catholic population most of whom didn't leave until Macau was transferred to China only a decade ago. Arstar 17:57, January 7, 2012 (UTC)

Well, I do not see a problem with a technocracy and Macau uniting especially after 20 years of contact and the fact that Macau has absorbed so much of mainland China and its ways. I have finished my holiday lectures and therefore now have time to work on AltHist. After 1994 when the supreme leader dies the nation becomes a technocracy - the ultimate form of capitalist and communist ideals.Scandinator 22:08, January 16, 2012 (UTC)

United States Expansion (1983DD)
Hi, Arstar. I fogot whether you liked messages on your talk page or "in line," so I headed over here. You asked me over on my talkpage about whether it was time to act on the expansion mentioned above (Welcome Back). The answer is simple: I'm ready when you are! Let me know what you have in mind.

Also, in case you didn't notice, I've adopted "Apalachicola" but have only got as far as the info box. That is my "home turf"/"ancestral home"! That section is considered part of "North Florida" (AKA "Gainesville") except for a little bit west of the River. I've mentioned west of the River as being "officially" claimed by the Republic of Florida. I have a bunch of cousins in and around the area being considered.

Sorry about the links - once I got the first one to work (took some doing), I couldn't seem to stop. :-) SouthWriter 22:00, January 7, 2012 (UTC)

Yank 05:09, January 8, 2012 (UTC)

I admit that "adopting" is not exactly what I had in mind. I think "Co-Authoring", like what we did with Macau, or what I did with Vlad on the various Yugoslavian countries (minus Macedonia), is more like what I have in mind. You tell me the articles you are going to be asisting with, and I will recognize your aid on my userpage. You know, I was inspired to start officially recognizing collaborators when I saw your userpage.

While I was among the first to say that the British editors should be allowed to edit the article freely, given there more local knowledge, I must protest your note to smoggy.

The British editors have shown several times now that they will, most likely, expand their own nations, and let the Alliance get nothing, despite how implausible that sounds. The interests are in direct competition, so to speak.

You need to keep the article, or hand it off to someone not with opposing interests to it.

I will greatfully accept your offer, however as LG seems to have a problem with it I will put it to the OBN editors that it is run by committee (that way one person cannot take it over and run it in favour of their own nations) and also that any major changes will have to be voted on before a change can take place.

That seem ok to you?

and also you LG, as i'm sure you'll be keeping an eye on this discussion?

Ok i've put it to the OBN editors, i've given them till the end of the month to leave any comments (some only log on intermittently), so i'll let you know in early Feb if the OBN editors will be interested in taking over --Smoggy80 17:23, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

That does nothing to prevent the problem. Whatsoever.

Why not do what we did a couple years back and have any changes require community consensus? It used to be a community timeline and now its just a bunch of individual fenced off areas with some stern "NO TRESSPASSING" signs.Oerwinde 09:51, January 11, 2012 (UTC)

Now that, that I like. Lordganon 10:08, January 11, 2012 (UTC)

North German Flag
Hey, I was wondering if you minded me changing the North German flag. The emphasis on Schleswig-Holstein bugs me now that they control large areas outside there, and with their membership in the Nordic Union I was thinking a more nordic flag. I found this one on wikipedia that I liked: Oerwinde 19:26, January 20, 2012 (UTC)

Since you haven't edited the page in a year, and I've had no response in a week, I'm going to adapt the rules on adoption and go ahead and change it.Oerwinde 04:30, January 29, 2012 (UTC)

The CA in former France
I've made the following post on the CA talk page, see what you think.

Over the past couple of weeks i've been looking at the maps and if the CA uses the rivers to consolodate the boundaries there are a nice set to use, with the River Loire as the southern boundary, and using its tributary the River Sarthe as its eastern boundary with a short land boundary to the source of the Eure River (also used as an eastern boundary) and then follow it to the sea as the River Seine.



This would also give a solid boundary with Orleans. What does everyone think? --Smoggy80 17:02, January 27, 2012 (UTC)

I'm posting on you page not only because you are still the CA editor but also the Orleans editor.--Smoggy80 17:07, January 27, 2012 (UTC)
