Sooooooo just joined Continental Union, figured I'd pop by your boards and see what's cooking! Names G-Tech, been around since 2009 or so, I found y'all through The Ruescher Empire. Him and I were in the same region over in the Global Right Alliance, but that's effectively defunct now, so I'm here  Actually, I was creeping on TRE's welcome thread, if anyone had the time I'd love a name change too. This lowercase "g tech" nonesense is quite unsatisfactory. In conclusion, HI |

Lol I know what you mean, some of the forum's default settings are a bit odd. None the less welcome G-Tech. Now that you are here, do END WAR!  Had to say it once, I won't mention it again I'm sorry....don't hit me! |

Hit him, G-Tech, I won't say anything! Don't worry none, TRE, we love you even if you're a bit scared and bruised up. Pain helps build character! G-Tech! Welcome to the region and thanks for joining our forum. We're still trying to simplify things and get rid of some old stuff on here that other people put on here over the last year or so. Let me know if you have any specific things you'd like to see (or want gone). I know Proboards is a little strange with some of the set up options. I "corrected" your name so it would appear they way you like it. Just remember you'll still need to log in as "gtech" I also set your permissions so you can access the boards you'll want to have. If you have any questions or need help with anything just let me know. |

We luvvvv you that much. And I WAS actually thinking of possibly restarting End War over here, TRE... we'll see if I can drum up any support in the RP section. Thanks for fixing mi nombre Sabastos, I appreciate it. As far as what I want to see here... I'll get back to you as soon as I've had a proper look around with my brand spanking new permissions |

You're...you're actually thinking of starting the greatest RP I have ever played again? Just to be safe can I call my same nations again ahead of time |

Also if you do decide to go ahead with it I would say you should try and set updates to be once a week. As I know it takes you an ass long to figure everything out and it would reduce your workload. Not to mention allow everyone else time to think, ask, and discuss.

Hahahahahhhh I'm glad you're already thinking about this. That would work well. I need to slap it in spreadsheet as soon as it starts this time... that was my mistake, thinking I could run it all by hand.
Though I have to say the activity I've seen here doesn't give me much hope for having a helluva lot of active players.

Well most people hop of the boards a few times a day from what I've seen, though they lurk more then anything You send out the call you will get volunteers though. How many people you thinking this time though? |

Lol running it all by hand would be madness G-Tech, me and Jonewest alone ended having a massive amount of data, let alone the 5 other people who jumped in. Spreadsheats are your friend  And you'll have a very receptive admin around here too, they are very intense about setting up everything perfectly |

Believe it or not I honestly ran all of it by hand except for a calculator for the multipliaction on devo and manu. It was quite ridiculously intense. Good times though.
I'll probably put up something tomorrow.

I could not imagine you doing it that way G-Tech No wonder it took you several days later on Well awesome for setting it up ^_^ Also I would like to recommend you have a new size condition this time for choosing countries. Mainly that you allow people to choose larger, but significantly poorer nations (like those in Africa). At least that's my two cents. Also just for dibs i call South Korea, North Korea, Taiwan, Kuwait, and Israel, and choose Red Color |

Haha I've always been willing to stretch limits, like with Seneca and whatsisfacewhowasinSouthAmerica. Its more of an attempt to create an effective power balance than any hardcoded limit.
And yeahhh it took a very specially productive mood to even face those pages of statistics. Not very fun.

Haha I did! It was great fun once it all came together, End War really had a majestic sense of scale that most RPs don't capture But yeah, between chasing new players around to post something, running Jonewest and your stats into something useful, not to mention attempting to work invasions realistically.... it got a teensy bit out of control from time to time. |
