The Dark Lord

It looks like Brazil was fully conquered by Argentina.

Technically, he attacked Argentina, not invaded it. So, it could either be pissed the pissed off government hurling rocks at some random Argentinians, or he could have actually invaded it with a random number of troops.

I'm not sure what you mean? EDIT: If Brazil loses the war against Argentina, I will grant the leader of Brazil a Darwin Award.

Some people are betting on who will win the war in South America. Right now, 4 out of 5 people bet that Brazil will lose.

To be honest, I think that they're talking about the Ruby Dragon, a ship. With that said, I believe that it is the Privateering skill. Dungeoneering was only a minigame, so Privateering must be the genuine skill! You heard it here first, folks.

I'm pretty sure some of the projects can be reduced with money.

Icu, how much does that university cut back on research time?

It's actually 0/40.

I'm sticking with the Weather thing right now.

That's cold. :P

What is that O_o? I think it's some sort of knock-off of Pokemon that existed in the late 90s and was pretty much lame. ------------------------------------- Anyway, with the roleplay thing, I would have to create a name for myself, such as Lord Protector Charles or something of that sort.

So you read the Sun or the Daily mail right? They're pretty legit.

Well, I agree that the richer and more powerful countries should be at an advantage.

Well, I would have to agree with Ross's wonder argument. It's inherently flawed. Personally, I think it would just be fairer to keep the current infrastructure and IAG system that we have and then allow people to research things and just abolish the wonder system.

Anyway, I guess it's settled on the following: -Doom gets Bullet Trains -Retech gets Green Revolution -Sere gets Weather Paradigm Part of my infrastructure budget is going into the building of defensive infrastructure along the southern and eastern Norwegian borders, as well as the southern Danish border.

Ah didn't see that. Oh well. I atleast started bullet trains first, but I'll still try for that. You can have green revolution. Icu, remind me how you plan on being able to afford the bullet trains? It'll take you atleast 80 years without support, and 60 with grim's support. :P Anyway, You mean Weather Paradigm, right? I'll let Retech have the Green Revolution since it isn't even needed in order to have green technology (environmentally friendly factories, etc.)

Doom, to be honest, I started the Weather Paradigm first... and the Green Revolution. Just saying. Look at the post about the trials.

So if I just want green technology, I don't have to even participate in the Green Revolution, am I right? If that's true, then all of the effort goes into the Weather Paradigm.

Is the Green Revolution required in order to get green technology for factories, etc? If not, then I'm putting it into Weather Paradigm, I guess. Likewise, what's the benefit of any of these if you don't "build it first" in time?

Well, I'm putting most of my money toward the Weather Paradigm and the Green Revolution. I have a large IAG, so I should be able to afford them. I don't care who gets the bonuses, but I want either one or the other. And I just want the green technology capacity anyway.

It seems like a bad idea for someone to build Matter Gates. You may get 5 times infrastructure bonuses, but someone could also secretly reveal 200,000 troops in Berlin.

The Commonwealth government has voted to not send troops to Greenland in order to capture and arrest the remainder of the ex-Danish regime. However, we have received word this morning from the American embassy that the United States is planning to capture the remainder of the exiled regime in order to be tried in a court of law. The Danish government, including the captured Prime Minister, have been found guilty of political corruption and international theft and will be exiled. The current Danish monarch is currently in a poor state of health, and her heirs will be able to become Lord Protector due to the integration of the British, Norwegian, and Danish royal families. As for the wonders, I guess I'll be participating in the Green Revolution and the Weather Paradigm thing. I don't know, but I'm building a larger train network regardless.

Racist [cabbage]. EDIT: Oh, and for the record, I'm kidding.

Not to mention the fact that Ross created a severely over-powered economy and pretty much grew his population to a point where he strip-mined a planet (was like 7 trillion or something like that)... :wink: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_B5JeiQM1rI

Byzantium announces that it will destroy any research station related to this abomination. Yeah to be honest I agree. It'll just end up being super android wars, and that's not too fun. Androids suck.
