LizNES5: Or How I Learned To Stop Worrying, And Love The Bomb

[Adrogans]

Dropping this. Japan is open.

Orders not received? Goodness. I'm still in though. When will those silly Americans learn?

 

[Lord of Elves]

Also, does (++) mean something different from (+)? Why did everyone else get ++2 IP for the currency, when I only got ++1? Just curious.

Unless I'm wrong ++IP is analogous to "plus the amount of IP you gain each turn" as opposed to "plus to current IP surplus".

I am dropping this nes.

 

[TheLizardKing]

Sorry. This NES is dead until further notice.

 

[Dreadnought]

Sorry. This NES is dead until further notice.

 

[Immaculate]

What happened TLK?

 

[Lord of Elves]

I can't help but feel this decision was made somewhat rashly. I don't consider this NES to be over yet, unless TLK feels he cannot continue it whatsoever.

 

[ZeletDude]

What happened.....?

edit; Day is ruined -_-

 

[Shadowbound]

California went into space. The entire state. We poked a hole in the atmosphere and everyone died.

Sorry.

 

[Dreadnought]

This ranks as one of the best NESes I have ever been part of.

If you need help modding it, I can sacrifice my duties to my glorious nation to help write updates.

 

[TheLizardKing]

I really appreciate it Dreadnought. The stats are killing me. The techs especially, coupled with the fact that I get the vibe that only 3-4 of you are actually enjoying this. My goal was to at least reach 1970, but the way things are/were going, I wasn't going to be able to do it. Real life sucks a whole lot too, of course, the last thing I feel like doing when hoping on the forums is dealing with.. unhappiness upon unhappiness. So meh.

 

[ZeletDude]

I know for a fact more than 3 or 4 enjoyed it

 

[TheLizardKing]

In this NES, the goal was an 'easier' to mod NES. It has not proven to be as such. I really enjoy moderating. But I don't have a good system to make me a good moderator. I have all kinds of ideas for NES's, that I'd like to be able to follow through to at least 10 updates. But I continuesly shoot myself in the foot.

 

[Dreadnought]

There must be something we can do.

I may be a brand new NESer, but I can safely say I was having a great time Then again if this is really something you don't enjoy . . . I've been down that road before as a GM. I won't fault you for moving on to something else - and I can sympathize with you about the "all kinds of ideas" and not being able to pull through . . . that's me in a nutshell.

The point of it is - make a new set of rules, pick a few buddies, and test-play it over PM. Refine it until you can manage it and still have a blast. Then start up "LizNES 6 Love Da Bomb 2" or some such in the year 1980 and see how things go. Or just start a new project. Whatever you decide to do, make sure it is under no circumstances "give up and stop GMing" - the art may be fickle and unrewarding, but ultimately there's nothing like it.

And you've done an unbelievable job so far - I couldn't have even started something like this. Kudos to you!

It was fun while it lasted.

 

[GamezRule]

At least we got to the Beatles.

 

[Milarqui]

I was enjoying this, too. Please, don't abandon us!

..... . Please dont kill this NES. This has really become my favorite, and is the best on on the forum since I started NESing.
