[QUOTE=Sobotnik;35664920]I'm not adding in the Australian parts yet. I will do so a bit later though. I kind of want to discourage people from going near Australia until the early 1600s.

The problem is the Maluku Islands are one of the most profitable islands in the entire region in terms of spice production, they're hardly that much further east then the Celebes.
Will send in quick revision then.

Settled in North America.
Big no-no if you've looked at what I've been doing. :v:
Sorry I don't care. I'm making the Southern United States into a massive New Denmark.
Sorry bro.
No reason we can't be amiable y'know?

I've already got the Eastern Seaboard. Just saying.
And I don't think that's a possibility. Move to South America, they'll take you in over in Brazil or some shit.
No we won't.
I'm not moving. I'm going to be in the Southern/Central/Western United States area. Sorry.
Don't make an issue of it. I may be a private company but you attacking me would still be a declaration of war on Denmark.

I am making an issue of it. I intend to own the US area in totality.
I doubt Denmark could withstand an English attack considering the dominance of the English military throughout the time period.
I'm thinking about putting some colonies in Texas, unless the exploration reports I put out in the last turn come out poor.

Could you stay at the southern area of Texas, the area that would mostly pass as Mexican land?

It's more for possible future expansion upward to California to get my hands on gold and silver, but for now I'm more interested in getting my greedy Catholic hands on Southeast Asia for its spices.
Currently trying to find a source of income that doesn't involve the use of mass slave labor, since I'm getting a tingle that's going to bite me in the ass in the next 10-15 turns.

You do realise at this time period Denmark was one of the major world powers right? And that right now England was relatively weak. This isn't the British Empire, not yet.
The Kingdom of England was not THAT powerful in this time period. And Denmark was. The Kingdom of Denmark at this time spanned from Denmark to Iceland and Greenland as well as Norway.

That being said. I have already made it clear I don't intend to expand past Southern USA. I will stay west of Alabama and south of the Mason Dixon line but I won't be corralled into a tiny part of the United States. I will expand West and North.

Don't advance past Georgia and Texas.
I personally intend to mainly own the breadbasket states along with California so that I can gain gold and silver to trade with India.
Besides, you own 5% of North America, aiming too high, no?

I will expand as far north as Arkansas and far western Tennessee and I will expand as far east as Mississippi. I will not be corralled into a tiny corner by you or anyone else. Bluster and exclaim and threaten all you like.
Personally, Face. I don't like you. You make a lot of threats and think you control everything and it's very annoying. It makes you sound like a conceited and arrogant jackass.
I think you should stop.
Not even his second turn into the game and you're already trying to bully him around, huh Face? I guess some things just don't change.
Good luck trying to get him to change his mind. James is one of the most stubborn and determined people I fucking know. Even more so than me. Personally I find it amazing he's allowed you to limit him to the Southern United States.

Oh go fuck yourself, there's a reason your colonies failed.
Just about nobody likes you Ven.

Sounds like me and you are going to have a few conflicts in the future. That being said, I'm not too intent on owning California, so I'd probably fold if I get their first and the price is good enough.

Yeah they failed because your dumb ass misunderstood something I said and instead of coming to me to talk about it like a logical person you flipped out and over-reacted.

Speak for yourself. I like him, he's a pretty cool guy. One of the few friends I've made in my International Relations classes this year.
Holy shit, industrialism has arrived, here comes the drama train, woo woo!

That is literally the only reason I put "Just about".
Everybody I know other than you has mentioned him in a negative light.
A lot of people in our class think he's funny. He tends to take a very sarcastic view of what's going on in world events in INR and even gets some laughs from the professor.
I can't speak for this forum but I think everyone here on Facepunch is pretty damn cynical. There's a reason I don't post anywhere else. Kind of a weird community. But these games are fun.
Amazing how these games breed drama. People, no one really cares who you like and dislike, let's play the game like gentlemen. This is politics, not the Maury show.
We were discussing politics and then Ven threw in his two cents and Face flipped out like a weirdo.
I've had a few arguments with Ven in the past.
Every single Steam Chat ends in an argument.
His first sentence of that post set me off. Yes I come off as arrogant, I've been successful, that happens and I try to correct it. Passive-aggressiveness is not a good way for him to help with that and he was being very passive-aggressive with that post.

There have been many times in the past where we've come to heads.
I'm done being diplomatic with you, it always ends in you reversing what you've said or us going into some huge argument.
I'm done with it, I'm just not going to deal with your shit peacefully anymore.
We differ on literally every viewpoint, as does Seed and I but at least he and I can get [I]something[/I] done in regards to diplomacy, and hell, I've actually had interesting conversations with him.
Are you referring to me or to him?
Because you and I have barely talked and I think if you're referring to me you're being rather harsh.
If you're talking to him, it sounds like you're trying to bring shit from outside of games or other venues into other games and that's not good sportsmanship.
We should all come up with some kind of new world olympics. Except Ruskie. Ruskie isn't invited.

I haven't been bringing anything from other games into this.
But my opinion of him is low regardless of that fact.
Ur such a butte, face
