50% of the people want him banned from the game, and that is half of the total votes. There are only four for a straight out "He can stay" I think it's blazingly clear what the majority of the players think at the moment.

That is something you are supposed to keep track of.

The chances are biologically impossible. For something as large as it is rumoured to be to support itself without being discovered is simply absurd.

Loch Ness Monster is a myth. Only real way it could exist is if there was some kind of massive underwater cavern system where it could hide forever and ever. [/argument provoking conversation]

Hex, maintainance costs... Your army is either starving, or all thier stuff is broken by now. They'd barely be fighting fit, to say the least.

Infrastructure doesn't increase by much when it goes over 1. 5 infrastructure means 105%.

Iran will assist Japan in any way other than direct combat (Small army, mostly defense force) Either way, looks like Hex is about to be banned regardless.

Hex, without the Aid system in place, the game becomes "Superpowers instawin all the game because the little countries can't catch them at all in any way."

Hurr. You don't get the system at all. It's designed to help the smaller nations develop. The larger nations also get the benefit of double infrastructure development. Also, The invention of lying was a bad movie.

So after this one, I get another year from Sere, and a year after that from Mather, which leaves me at about 1t. If they're okay with that, of course.

Mine should be somewhere around 500 as well, with the Aid Missions.

No ceding countries to other people. That's just a method to bypass the annex system. Mexico goes back to being an NPC country.

Okay, I've spent the last few hours gathering resources to create the new map, and it's looking very good so far. I'm hoping it'll be done by Friday. Oh yeah, and I'm focusing on averting a few classic tropes. Here's a (rather large) hint: Splitting up may turn out to be a good thing. It'll get things done faster, at the least (Map is bloody HUGE)

Thanks Sere.

Iran will help with Icu's market thingy whatever it is. Sere, basically, you put in 60% of your AIG into this, you will get 1.2 increase instead of the usual 0.6. I will also get a nice boost to my AIG. Yes, infrastructure increases AIG.

Okay Sere, what % of your AIG are you going to put into it?

Sere, I'll take that offer. Basically, if you spend say, 10% on that, I'd get an AIG boost, and you would get extra infrastructure, at double the rate it would be if you invested it into infrastructure normally.

Still think Jormungand is cool.

Hex, we get it, you have all the wit and argumentative skills of a sledgehammer.

It's called "Making you look bad (I don't think you could look much worse) so that people attack you." It's a fairly legitimate tactic. Hey Retech, do you mind sending Aid mission for me? It means you get good infrastructure rates, in exchange for helping me out a bit.

Sure, you can build a military base in Iran.

Hrm. I'd like to petition the US for assistance from the Chinese threat. It would appear losing a heckton of infrastructure did nothing to stop them from being power hungry. I'm still keeping only 100,000 troops on active duty, so yeah. Pretty easy to invade. Retech, I'll help with that Green thingy if you want.

Well this is fun, isn't it? I mean, we're all having fun here.

I'll help if you give me help with Aid Missions.

Regardless, you still need full permission to move troops through a country or you are pretty much asking for war with them.
