Encore of Europe: Rules, Sign-up, and General Discussion

[windjammer]

Im not rejoining as the Netherlands for the foreseeable future as I start school Thursday 

Honestly I will deeply miss you as you have been friendly and hilarious to me

[windjammer]

Tonight is the midturn?

[windjammer]

I suppose the midturn will be about the netherlands and maybe Italy? I'm curious about how Benedetto is governing Piedmont, absolute monarch? Constitutional monarch etc etc.

[windjammer]

Have good vacations

[windjammer]

My orders will be sent tomorrow

[windjammer]

Nothing more from me for this turn.

[windjammer]

Several players have questions that they will need before sending in orders. Due to this, as well as my late return, I've decided to extend the turn an additional 24 hours. I'm working on responding to PMs currently and should complete the process tonight.

I hope you have had good vacations

Hello Spamage,
Thank you for all your work, you have been amazing. Indeed real life must come first. I oppose someone else taking the game as I believe it is your game. In my view, the best would be to end it and to start a season 3 next year something like 20 years later. It's going to continue to be an amazing period:
-the passing of benedetto: succession crisis?
-Naples becoming the most capable candidate to unify Naples
-Scandinavia annexing basically Denmark with the Schleswig issue not solved
-Rising nationalism, uprising in Greece?
- Spain and the UK facing increased troubles in their colonies
-The passing of Kosciuszko: what to do next?


Etc etc


I think there is a big potential for a third season next year so it is preferable to close it like you did last game.

Maybe a final turn so we could all give what we were planning to do by PM in the next decade?

Funny how France was omitted from any potential troublesome developments

Well,
I mean I believe that France is probably in the strongest position in Europe, like the UK was at the same time.
What I can see in 20 years is the "liberals" rising in the election occuring 20 years later but it can hardly be considered as troublesome.

[windjammer]

I probably sent you my last question Spamage

[windjammer]

Hopefully nothing bad will happen

[windjammer]

Is everything alright Spamage?

[windjammer]

Is everything alright Spamage?

My apologies, I've gotten a bit busier sooner than expected and this fell by the wayside. I have most of a tentative news update written out, but it will be a little bit before I can finish it off.

Oh seriously it's alright take your time, IRL is more important.

[windjammer]

For old times' sake:

Does a picture of a pope getting hung exist too?

[windjammer]

I truly wonder what will happen

[windjammer]

Spamage btw,
When do you think you will be able to post the update?
Obviously take the time you need, I'm just curious

[windjammer]

Thank you Spamage for your wonderful work.

I will send you my final message in the coming week!

[windjammer]

When is the deadline btw?

[windjammer]

Dereich, could you please answer my PM?

[windjammer]

Final orders issued.

[windjammer]

Btw Spamage, if some people hasn't sent their orders, the best is to put their realm as automat and to still close the game.

[windjammer]

A delay is justified for the very last turn, since there's much to cover, but, in principle, I agree with windjammer. Such games are supposed to simulate the real life mechanisms and if you don't react to the situation in time, you don't get an extension in RL politics.

^^^^^^
I understand that sometimes delays are necessary like right now but it's important for a game to work that there are deadlines etc.

[windjammer]

I had been reading a lot recently about the post congress of Vienna, the 1815-1848 period and dear god I didn't believe that was a so interesting period.

I really hope there will be a season 3 next year because there will be so many potential problems that I will elaborate further when Spamage will close this game.

[windjammer]

Do you have all the elements needed Spamage?

[windjammer]

Oh sorry. I was just proposing my help if he was too busy.
