While We Wait: Part 4

Also, the absence of new neses is scaring me: in the fall and even summer last year the community is much more active: What happened?

...You just mentioned your new NES. I have a new NES. There's a bunch of good NESes like End of Empires and LINESII going on too. There reason there seems to be a lack of activity is that it is summer and most people go on vacations and stuff.
 
There's a Diplomacy game going on that ground to a halt, but that's it for boardgames.
 
Are there any other RiskNES type NESes?

There was a DipNES a short while back, but right now, RiskNES VI is the only one. It's almost over though. Someone should make a DipNES... twould be fun!

Grr, I'm finding LINESII to be more and more of a chore as I work on it. My schedule is starting to lighten up, it's still the summer, but I find my inspiration evaporating, superceded by a sense of duty to the ever-patient and wonderful people involved in the NES.

It's certainly my fault. I, like several others *nods at Daft*, have found myself caught up in increasing complexity. LINES was a small NES which didn't attract much attention, and came to a fairly definitive end. LINESII started off small, just a map a few centimetres wide. Now, it is a page in size, but I update at the same level of detail that I used to. I am faced with a dilemma: should I reduce the complexity of this intricate NES that we have crafted? I say that I will do this, but I, like others, repeatedly fail to significantly lower the quality *nods again to Daft*.

I think the most significiant thing is that I struggle in the massive, chaotic wars that routinely mash up large regions of Tellus. Currently, with New Veritas and company versus Anabetan Khemri, I have found myself hesitating for several days to get started. I am afraid to misinterpret elaborate orders, afraid to make mistakes.

@Lord Iggy, its true to say I have very similar issues with DaftNES :(

@Lucky, I had a look, but can't get all the screenshots on my connection (not unless I wait an hour). Still, I call upon you to end the brutal oppression of the innocent French and Zanzibarian peoples!

At the rate it's going I won't ever be lucky enough to side with Prussia against France.

Especially since your relations are in the toilet, or so it seems. (Is -63 really low or merely sort of low?)
 
How does that capitalist thing work in Victoria? Although I used to play it for some time in the past, those pesky capitalists never built the factories nor railroads for me :p

Depends on your government and the amount of cash they have. If you over tax them they won't have enough money to build things, if they don't have enough money to buy their own goods, they won't build either. So it's tricky. I seem to be doing fine as Belgium though. They have build like 8 factories for me. So many that I lack the population to fill them.
 
If you're bored and would like a laugh, go through the earliest pages of the "New NESes, ideas [...]" thread. First ten to twenty.
 
You don't even know enough about this subject to argue it. Why are you bothering?

Re: Domestication.

Wondering what your background is that give you any grounding in this subject? Are you tutored or have researched (beyond for own enjoyment) in this field?
