Known World Map
Known World 901 appears on variants page, but you can't select it when creating a game. Why is this?

Postal Game
There was a postal game organized on here a couple years ago that I really enjoyed. If there's interest in it doing it again, I'd love to organize one.

Couple weeks for each turn, communication only by postal mail.

If I remember correctly, the last postal game was usa-only to avoid too long letter delivery times between Europe and America. Is this game open for Europeans as well? (If not, anyone interested in playing a european postal game?) How long do you intend to make each turn? Will retreats and builds be shorter? I am, depending on answers, potentially interested
PRINCE WILLIAM (391 D)

That is exactly what I thought, I am in Europe, Greece to be specific.

The plan is for two week phases. This could be enough to include the Euros? Datapolitic.... how many confirmed do we have?
Claesar (4665 D)
13 Dec 17 UTC
Keep in mind that postal costs will also be larger across continents.
Sevyas (973 D)
13 Dec 17 UTC
Good point Claeser.
I would still be interested. Maybe we could send a test-letter to check how long it takes?
Sevyas (973 D)
13 Dec 17 UTC
how long it takes ... calculate how much the entire game would probably cost ... and if the other players would agree to let Europeans participate given the increased costs
(alternatively, I would also agree to try and start a European game)
datapolitical (100 D)

It gets expensive over the course of a game. $1.15 per letter to Europe vs 46 cents in the USA.

But the bigger problem is the time; letters take over a week vs 2-3 days. So you wouldn't be able to hear back until the following turn. Far better to do a European game.

I've thought about this a lot, cause I'd love to have a game that included folks in Europe, but doing it right would slow down the game to one turn every 3-4 weeks, which is way too slow.

Oh no, I just decided to wait to start it till after the holidays when everyone is back from their Christmas travel.

If your looking for European players I would be interested in how it will work.

I will. We'll use an online tool to administer the moves. And unfortunately it's gonna be USA only.

Arson = socially progressive
I realized that based on the cultural constraints of the criminal justice system that burning things represents the circle of life. If a forest burns down - it comes back stronger. We burned down Atlanta, it came back way cooler look at the Falcons. We accidentally burned Chicago, now its great. Lets just burn the world.

A discussion on Morality and Virtue (Paladins, Clerics)
What is the difference between a Lawful Good Cleric and a Lawful Good Paladin. Which is more unrelenting in their beliefs? Which is more likely to have sex? Are both bound by vows of celibacy? Are Lawful Good Paladins more likely to engage in religious persecution (ala Knights Templars).

Brexit Passport Victory!
Hurrah. The UK government has announced that after Brexit, British passports will cease to be burgundy-coloured, and will be blue, the same colour as the EU flag... to celebrate Britain's identity and separation from Europe.
