While We Wait: Part 5

[Dachs]

What does the word segue mean???

Smooth transition.

I understand that war is considerably less fun when applied to the real world!

Hence the smiley; I think it's helpful in all this, though, to find humor in what one can. I mean, come on, is this the 18th century or something? Is Pylyp Orlyk going to come back from the dead and lead his Zaporozhians to assist?

@Symphony -- could you give us real-time updates of this on your map?

I don't think Canada wants the Bills to move to Toronto, for one, it would probably dissolve the Canadian Football League. Also, I don't think most people in Toronto want to "steal" a team, they want their own. Also, Canada's trying to keep the NFL away, I think they're trying to pass laws that enable heavy gambling on NFL games, and the NFL doesn't like gambling. But, I'm not too sure about any of this I live across the border from Canada.

we do want them here, and we dont. the CFL...

if I were to say its failed,...

well it has. I like SOME CFL rules over NFL. Like wider fields, overtime rules, upright location, the single for touchbacks, all that stuff. but i hate 3 downs and some other rules, and the stupid salary cap of $4.05 million which is always broken and the league doesnt care either way...

the US doesnt want us to have a team, and the CFL doesnt either (and we dont want baltimore winning the grey cup anymore, so you cant have CFL teams either)

My going rate right now is $7.00 per hour for technical labor.

My going rate right now is $7.00 per hour for technical labor.

That's higher than minimum wage even in your state, you prima donna!

Also, I like how this thread is already at 8 pages in a day and a half. At this rate, we'll need WWW:6 in about a month.

OOC: That's only because nobody else does ANYTHING similarly to being East Asiatic (Though I highly approve of the Ancestral Cult)

I really have to agree with alex here; people tend to ripoff European nations all the time, but then when someone uses one with Chinese or Indian elements, they scream "clone!"

Supply and demand, Marx.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

I would venture to say that the Faroun are almost devoid of a real-world parallel, and the same goes for Mikuena.

I mean, if we started pointing figures... Dachs, and thlayli are you ready?

Seriously, if I don't carry up the banner of the great motherland who will? Nobody

I use prepackaged nations, and deliberately fail to play in non-Earth maps because I don't believe that I am sufficiently inventive. We've been over this about a bazillion times. Oh, and nice typo.

Seriously, if I don't carry up the banner of the great motherland who will? Nobody

Now what does that say about the 'great motherland'?

 

[flyingchicken]

I would! China is kewl.

In other news, I'm found that the first 1443 posts of the New NESes blah blah blah thread was quite extraordinarily sleep-depriving.

Also, RiskNES is delayed because of a break-in, a robbery, a missing phone, and a missing gun, which all led to transportation problems and to Internet connection problems. I'm serious.

 

[alex994]

*points to above* See dachs!

I'm overjoyed okay after just concluding the Opening Ceremony (due to stupid NBC).

To China coming second place! (But with 35+ gold medals )

Is Pylyp Orlyk going to come back from the dead and lead his Zaporozhians to assist?

Sadly, no, but the Terek and Kuban Cossacks are in for the ride as well. The Kuban Cossacks are special, by the way, because they already played a major part in throwing the Georgians out of Abkhazia way back in the early 1990s. You just know they're going to pillage Tbilisi one day.

 

[Masada]

Ah, the world has sunk back into a state of rapine and pillage; I just wish I was Mongolian, China looks just that little bit richer nowadays

 

[flyingchicken]

lord_joakim, nobody's controlling up to 30 nations in AbNES, unless I'm mistaken.

I guess I am?

Hahaha, I guess you are!

But an advertisement like that doesn't look like it's directed at you.
