lightning bolts plox
« Topic Start: August 15, 2015, 02:13:22 PM »
I know we've had this happen once before on this island to get things moving I certainly wouldn't mind it happening again for all the realm leaders who have been in power for over 60 days. The current leaders with the exception of one or two are too conservative for any kind of lasting break from the stagnation that the island currently is in.

There are at least 6 realms on AT at war. True, they're not the best wars in the world. And diplomacy is pretty screwy. But still, there's war. We are nowhere near what we were at back on EC when bolts were flying.

Also, there were other extenuating OOC circumstances back then that contributed to the actions taken.

If I ever use plox in a title, that means I'm not completely serious, and in this case, mostly venting about the situation.

Yeah I'm quite tempted to send my char over to BT, though I'd like to see if I can win a tournament.

I thought we were on the verge of a religious war in the North, but people seem oddly happy with the current status quo where nothing is really happening.

That is because for the most part you have Old Guard controlling the most powerful nations. What I wouldn't give for Darka to split off from Talerium.

I honestly have zero idea what goes on in other nations, and I'm not sure how to fix that... hell I can barely remember half the people in my own nations ;_;

You can forget about me knowing anything about the religions. Nobody hardly ever does anything in them. Which is kind of disappointing but I am as much at fault as anyone else is.

There are 4 realms at war. Only two doing actual fighting.

Did the northern war end already?

No, it hasn't really started. Naturally, it's a little complicated.

Of course there are Tara and Strombran who are beyond despicable trying to have their cake and eat it too. This cowardly behaviour is worse than Talerium's and ML's make-believe war because it will eventually stiffle the only legit conflict on the continent and we'll be back to status quo.
No idea what makes Indirik so optimistic.
