Have submited my DO, not much more to do then hope for luck :-)
-
Just turned it in. Might do some changes until tomorrow though.
-
Same here... I know I'd like to add some more flavour-text, but I'm kinda giddy at the moment, as I'm starting at my internship tomorrow (or today, depending on timezones).
-
Submitted.
Some small matters that I'm not sure about but... well.. :p
-
I turned it in but I will likely send an update tomorrow...
Nearly 18 pages long, over 8000 words...and I still seemed to fail to flest some things out enough...

No wonder our poor DMs are overworked.

IHH DO delivered yesterday. I believe almost none of my actions have been fleshed out and I have not the time to do it later this week :-\
-
I sent it on Friday afternoon
-
I sent my DO yesterday ...
-
I sent it on Friday afternoon
Of course, just like every time I've sent my DO, I'm unsure I've made the right decisions :-\
-
Yea, my DO's been in awhile. I'm apparently on the receiving end of a completely uncalled for war! :)
I mean, he could at least get a better casus belli than not having access to Markazor... He could have bought passage through Tornilen and Mhoried. Same 5 provinces of movement. A couple of bridges and he'd be all set.
Oh the injustice! The inhumanity!
-
I sent my DO yesterday. Wild things there. Maybe not, maybe it will be just wasted turn. Im curious whether my allies really show up as promised.

I thought we were staying clear of any inter-player wars during the grace period? Was it ended a turn early after all?

Well, he declared at the very end of of turn, so I assume he is actually being nice about it, getting the declaration out in advance of an early spring strike. He could have saved it, but we both knew it was around the corner.
We should discuss further in a mirror of the declaration, and leave this for the DO stuff.

I suppose that is technically true. You never called for war with Osoerde explicitly. To us, at least.
I mean, you did cut Osoerde off from a vassal. And there were multiple seasons of failed diplomacy. And you declared an Osoerdean vassal anathema. And insulted others. And rejected the possibility of further Diplomacy to resolve the situation. And conspired against a vassal state. And so on.
But, hey, you never actually said "Let's have a war!" That's Osoerde's job, what with us being such imperialistic bastards and all. Good point!

The SM refused access because as you requested...

Bobby sums it up.

I definitely have been under the assumption that the grace period was over for all intents and purposes. As a side note, I didn't actually intend to wait until the very end to issue the decree -- I was just strapped for time primarily.

We'll see... The other OoC chain never really ended up with a clear DM proclamation, so it's important that all players are aware IF the grace period is over.
Anyway, leave the debate for the IC. As I see it both domains have played by a certain logic and aimed for a certain political situation. Noone will love Osoer for invading, noone can blame him for protecting his interests in Markazor. It's all politics.
Now that war is looming it's not really the time to continue the game in the OoC. We don't want you to start taking this personally :D (yeah yeah, I know it's impossible. But at least it's equally impossible for all).

International Internet law requires a minimum number of flame wars per 6 months. We're just trying to make sure our forum doesn't get shut down for violations of code. Anyways, Jon, you know perfectly well we can blame one another for almost anything if we try hard enough. ;)
I think this particular conflict's being driven by one of the most common reasons in the world: distrust, on all sides. No one believing they can trust the other to behave 'right'. It's always interesting to me to see how closely we wind up mirroring real-world tendencies. The details of our negotiations and plans and behaviors are very different, but the fundamentals behind them are classic as hell.
As for DO's, I got mine in a day early, which is tragically better than usual for me. What's the earliest anyone's turned in a fully completed DO?
-
Very true Bobby.
Not taking anything personal though. I'm certainly enjoying the rather intense wriggling I have to do... No secret that I'm underdog. Very exhilarating. :)

Right-o, never mind me then :)
(I just wish you'd expend the amount of energy you have OoC to write your version of the tale in the rumour section - hint hint).

Currently, I'm blaming everything on Boer... seems to be working fine for me.
By the by... If anyone wants to send a present to Brosien, Kaven would very much like it. Especially if it's hot chocolate! ::)
