The Drums of War: Sequel to Turn of the Century

@Texan never posted once in the Game Thread but seemingly as we are in a major exam period now it is likely he is just very busy. Have you tried PM him?

Yeah but he hasn't responded. . .I think he may be entering one of those periods where he just stops posting for whatever reason, but if so, he should give up Denmark. . .

Cdrone at least has responded to my PM's. Not always on time, but he has always responded eventually. . .

Oh no, what will the Central Powers do without Denmark. The game is unplayable without it

It really only effects some of the stuff we're planning, like the officer exchange program or the trade agreements. You know, the alliance wide things. Still we'd like to get answers as to whether or not Denmark will participate and we can't do that if Denmark is in limbo player-wise. . .

Dude Denmark is pretty much a Prussian puppet at this point. You don't need someone playing it to do it. If Berlin tells them to jump they will say how high.

Sometimes @Texan chooses the most weird choices in a NG.
 
Ah, I generally have problems with the map colors, just like before when I thought Sweden was Colored as part of the Central Powers on the Alliance map instead of Just CP Aligned. . .
 
Personally I'm actually colorblind and I could tell the difference. But yeah the digital nature of the color is likely the best explanation.
 
I've got the RoC ready to post @inquisition sorry for the delay but can I give you war plans and the like still for the civil war?
 
Lol! At least in Australia there's always the Independents to vote in :p

I feel a strange, rather unpleasant mix of relief and utter terror at this news.

As a Clinton supporter, I know exactly what you mean. Trump has massively alienated every minority group in the US, as well as a significant portion of even republican women. His party is badly fractured and supports him grudgingly at best. His platform is based on conservative white men, the fastest shrinking major demographic in the country. His favorability numbers are far worse than HRC, who is (unjustifiably IMO) one of the least popular major party nominees in many years. The only remotely moderate constituency that he might have an advantage with are blue collar men, who were mostly voting republican anyway. The general election is also much less forgiving if shenanigans and blister.

And yet...

Even though every mathematical and subjective measurement leads to the conclusion that Hillary will wipe the floor with the trump, and that his candidacy will bring future purple states like Arizona and Georgia into play, trump has been able to mostly avoid mathematical and subjective logic so far. Aside from the horror at something be like 25-30% of Americans deliberately deciding that trump was their guy, there's the nagging sensation and fear that he might somehow win the election. By every statistical and logical measurement it's an unfounded fear, but the alternative is horrifying to contemplate

Yeah. While I'm personally no fan of Clinton, I agree with pretty much everything you said. I've talked with Republicans and right-leaning Independents at my campus who are utterly horrified at the thought of Trump as their nominee, and not just because it likely spells doom for the GOP's chances, but also because they are genuinely disturbed enough to vote Democrat.
