IOT Developmental Thread

Dibs are technically useless. They do nothing other than demonstrate your intentions.

EDIT: Couldn't agree more with Thor. (Hey, that rhymes!)

Just ban Domination.

This. Motion carried!

Or do we need to vote?

I vote no of course.

And, you can't ban me from a game that hasn't begun yet!

Also, all I said was I will probably eventually DOW whoever picks China.

We already outvoted Athenian Democracy.

Just ban Domination.

I Like This.

Or we could save everyone the bother and just mass-declare war on him in Turn 1

Tempting. VERY tempting, especially from a guy who is contemplating Korea.

However, that's exactly what he was going to do, and by Hell I'm not going to turn into him. You'd have to kill me first.

[Reiser]

Just ban Domination.

I have to say yes to this. I'm sorry Domination, but it's quite true.

 

[W|M]

Or just do the other idea and ban him...

EDIT: X-Post.

 

[Thorvald of Lym]

Your saying this why? In fact, it seemed so pointless to me I almost reported it to the mods to take care of, but I decided to PM you first and ask for an explanation.

Let's see:

- You spam the threads;
- You harass other players;
- You can't seem to keep OT politics out of the game;
- You make war/peace in a horribly inconsistent manner;
- You threaten the Game Moderator.

Honestly, if you can't see why yourself, I don't think I can explain any better.

 

[Arakhor]

In the interests of also not being a metagaming tin-pot tyrant, I too vote to ban Domination.

 

[Cull]

You also spam the players. I'm a victim of this in IOT4, and, by VMs, other players have got this too.

 

[Mathalamus]

Let's see:

- You spam the threads;
- You harass other players;
- You can't seem to keep OT politics out of the game;
- You make war/peace in a horribly inconsistent manner;
- You threaten the Game Moderator.

i also vote to ban him.

 

[GhostWriter16]

i also vote to ban him.

I vote we ban Mathalamus for doing the same thing I'm doing.

The above quote is meta-Gaming. You should not declare war because he was a war monger in the past. The fact that he pmed me to say he will be a warmongering dictatorship in the next game is beside the point. his said his goal will be to conquer most of Asia, so I think his declaration of war on China is a fair one.

I vote no on the kicking dommy out of the game. i also vote against him be DoW by eveyone on the first turn.


This game is based on the Renaissance, the reason there was no world wars before WW1 was because there was no defensive pacts before that. If two countries fought over a dispute, it would generally be left to those countries and those countries only. I think we should keep that in mind for the next IOT

Don't forget:

- You refuse GM orders
- You can't keep IOT and Realpolitik separate
- You go head-on with the GM

That good enough? I can dig up a couple more . . . .

I support the vote to ban Dommy.

I mostly agree.

Also, I never said I was gonna be a dictatorship.

And, Athenian Democracy fell anyway. But if what we voted on is subject to the votes, I vote we ban Mathalamus and anyone else who tries to powergame.

 

[Cull]

Powergaming: Ilduce>Math, the case of IOT2, far more Ilduce. Even in IOT2-IOT4, ilduce versus Math, Math was far less in IOT 4, than ilduce in IOT2

Disrespecting the GM: Domination 3000

 

[ZeletDude]

I vote yes to banning Dommy.

Can you vote multiple times? If so, I vote to ban Domination graham's number times. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grahams_number)
