Well, that would be ok wit me, but monstrously difficult. How about we set up a "Year Limit" for each session(Who really thinks we will play 300 years in one go? If so, take your brain medication and call me in the morning;) )
So for example, say we decided to play 25 year increments. After each, we write up a small "Quarterly Report AAR" for it. Then if nned be, when finished, we cut and paste into a new one. If necessary, we have each player name their own AAR portion for the country they played, and perhaps, what we do, is have all the AARs put into one Grand AAR, which will be the actual "Multiplayer AAR" thing. Or is this too confusing?
 
I have good news and some bad news, I'll give you guys the good news first.

Well, the good news is that I am not going to stop posting on the forum. (see my horrible news thread for thurther details.)

The bad news is that I don't have the time to participate on this AAR. I won't be able to play, much less organize the game. Although I will try to visit a lot.
 
Sorry to hear that, Brad :(

H_S, what I meant was that however long and however many times it took to complete the game, we would write the whole thing once we're done (I don't know about you, but I think it makes things a lot easier to do if you write it once you're done, so that you can use your hindsight to develop plotlines). Each person would write their own version, and it would be like competeing versions of history. I think it'd be pretty cool. What do you think?
 
So, can I join now??? As Austria???

Very cool. Yes, yes, that actually makes more sense. But I should warn people ahead of time that my "history" will be monstrously large(Hell, I'll export it to France, and teach them what really happened to their country:D.)

P.S. I am also going to be posting less, at least for a while. Work is draining me of all ounces of my physical strength(Manual Labour is evil, especially working stock in a stupid department store during Christmas:mad: . All I do is check the forum and sleep for 12 hours. And Rinse. And Repeat.:(
Just thought I would let people know ahead of time. But I will still take part in the AAR(And yes, I will still do the Haudenosaunee AAR).
 
and MSN if you want, just ask me for the adress!!!

we should do the list again for participants. I would advise against making it too large, as lag may cause a problem. But let us see who returns to the fold.
 
sorry, i meant, the list we had before, with people and countries chosen. Could we get that back up, so we can make changes as need be? Thank you
