Alright, we're in the process of re-arranging things again, so just bear with us. Saudi Arabia [Maikeru] is now known as United States [Maikeru]* Recon is now known as Recon. Dax is now known as Il Duce. Zimbabwe [Rider] is now known as Saudi Arabia [Rider]** Recon will likely reclaim. I will be sticking around as an admin, though I may or may not re-claim this round. * pending approval from Sel. ** All current Rps involving Zimbabwe may proceed. Rider can continue to play as Zimbabwe until their conclusion, or you guys can use an NPC. Your choice. |

I've been told that Sel approves? Well then, I'm your new United States. Hello everyone. ![]() To assuage some fears, I know that I have, in the past, gone inactive from this game. However, I was chosen for this position in part because I have stayed active for the duration of this round. I have assured Dax that I shall continue to stay active as the United States, and I am now assuring you of the same thing. Secondly, I know a select few of you may not like me given your past experience with me. I'm hoping we are able to put that behind us, or at least separate OOC and IC feelings, and work together for the good of the game. And all that good commie stuff. Cheers! |

I'll get to it as soon as possible, Crackzilla. Could everyone just give me a day or so to get caught up on what's going on with the US right now? I swear that's all I need and then I'll be posting faster than a black man who just stumbled upon naked pictures of Michelle Obama. Rules 1 and 2 |

It's my fault. I should have foreseen that this would take some explaining. Generally, the Reader's Digest version is that I never wanted to play the United States to begin with and, while it was fun while it lasted, I'm losing interest fast. I knew that this would happen, but hoped that my resolve, as well as support from Recon, would help me to get through the round. Since that hasn't happened, I feel like I'm dragging the game down because I can never muster the motivation to post. People may have noticed that my activity is much lower than it was last round, and that's primarily why. Recon is resigning because he does not want to play the US with anyone else but me, being that we have a fairly good personal relationship and are able to work together so well. So we felt it best to both step down simultaneously to avoid any future incidents or him stepping down later, when it might be more messy. Recon will likely re-claim, though I'm not entirely sure what his plans are. As for me, I'm going to sit this one out, i think, and stick to admining/events/moderation/mentoring/sporadically NPCing, and miscellaneous other things to occupy my time for the rest of the round. Fear not, there is no big dramatic catalyst. It was all very gentleman-ly. |

Says the player who has never had a single nation on 21c? TBH, both of us see many opportunities to Rp as America, just last week I was discussing a new cabinet with Dax. However posting is another matter. It takes me days to do my posts. I have to be in a certain state of mind to do them, enthusiastic etc. We are both creative people and I bet once Dax gets back on the Wagon, with a new nation we will once again see the best player on 21c in action. |

I, unlike some people (not going to say who), can separate IC and OOC feelings. Of course, considering I'm not antisemitic, I don't think installing that particular view would be a likely problem. |

Well Holy Frigate Talk about some change... Hope this all works out for the better and... Yeah, just Holy Frigate, we do this way too much but it certainly keeps us on our toes. So, the Rider issue... Meh... I can just recall my troops? |
[align=center] [/align]I watched them strap him into the seat and shut the door. He might of looked a bit nervous about it but that was about all. I really believe that he knew he was going to be in hell in fifteen minutes. I believe that. And I've thought about that a lot. He was not hard to talk to. Called me Sheriff. But I didn't know what to say to him. What do you say to a man that by his own admission he has no soul? Why would you say anything? I've thought about it a good deal. Cormac McCarthy | |

If you'd like. However, I'll allow Rider to NPC Zimbabwe to finish out the storyline if that's what you guys want to do. |

Honestly, it was 'potentially' between me and him, versus Egypy, UK, and him. Though Egypt has disappeared and Norcal is a little behind on some other RPs (Schwer's carrier thing?) so I wouldn't even expect him to come around till quite later. Obviously, I'll continue if it works out but I am not doing my African Landgrab v2.0 with a NPC Rider, alone.
