Damnit, I wanted to carve me some egyptian land.
Chicago is actually not that bad. There are bad neighbourhoods, just like any big city, but the heart of Chicago is very awesome.

[QUOTE=Intoxicated Spy;34763857]Bahahahahahaha I live in Chicago now, and well, bullshit, it hasn't snowed that bad in about 6 years . And not everyone fucking is use to the cold[/QUOTE]
You're retarded. I was in Chicago Christmas of 2010 and there was two feet of snow on the ground. In late january of 2011 there was 5-6 feet of the shit. Don't bullshit me.
Boston has great sports.
But fuck our populace.

5-6 feet, bullshit, it was like 1ft at most.
Hey Urban, Syndic wants to control Egypt.
:v:
You know, to be fair. If Syndicate really wants to be Egypt then by all means let him
Split it between us, Sunny. Let me have North Africa and the Middle East and the southern half RedS can have.
I personally want the entirety of Egypt being left to him.

The news story talks about buried cars. That's not 1 foot.
[QUOTE=Mr. Face;34765366]I personally want the entirety of Egypt being left to him.[/QUOTE]
I don't think that's fair. Sunny was going to cede it to me and then RedS jumped in and is trying to claim the entire nation for himself.
It's more than fair to split it between us. I've been working since I joined to have a respectable Empire he shouldn't be able to just join in and get one.

I didn't read any of the thread until just now, and didn't know he was giving you Egypt. Mr. Face told me several hours ago that he would very much like me to join in and play, and mentioned the list of nations that had dropped out or weren't being played by anybody. He didn't say what was happening to Egypt, but from what I recall, Egypt was doing better than most of the nations he listed, so I said I might pick that one.
But eh, its no big deal. Have it and whatever.
No here. I mapped this out real quick and sent it to Sunny.

Red would be you.
I have no qualms with you playing I'd just like to have at least half of what Sunny said he'd give me.
I said I don't want to play.
I change my mind.
Bye.
No, come on man. I wasn't trying to force you out of the game I just didn't want to be shifted ):

I like it how you give him no sea access.
oh. Hell. That skipped my mind I'm sorry.
Red please stay. I'll change the map so you get sea access. We can split the Bab el Mandeb
[editline]18th February 2012[/editline]
Here. [url]http://i.cubeupload.com/HjPz21.png[/url]
Some of my land down there and more of Egypt so that we split control of the Bab el Mandeb.
Urban, you already have enough land in my opinion as it is.
And I doubt a nation would just give it's land to somebody like that anyway.
For the RP's sake, just give it all to Syndic.

20 inches isn't buried cars, just saying Ven.
I'm pretty sure even Virginia had about 20 inches last year.
That's your opinion and I respectfully disagree. I'm trying to unite Islam here.
Splitting the land evenly with Red is more than fair. What isn't is him getting the entire chunk.
[editline]18th February 2012[/editline]
Anyway Egypt and I have been allied for quite some time. His northern bit, the oldest, would likely join with me given no other choice. The southern bit, not quite so loyal to the current government, would most likely join a coup (RedSyndicate).

Read the whole thing mate.
"Three lanes of cars cluttered the road with snow reaching as high as the windshields. Some cars were almost completely buried. Others filled with snow that engulfed dashboards and steering wheels after doors were left ajar."

You very nearly drove RedSyndicate off.
He's joining as Greece.
Be happy I'm even giving you Egypt at this point.
I wasn't trying to drive him off. Lay off man.

Evenly? Giving me a land sparsely populated with sub-saharan tribal men who don't know what steel is, while you get the industrial, densely populated north, not to mention every inch of fertile land along the Nile is considered fair? That is more like a 98/2 split, and if splitting the country in the first place were even on the table, that wouldn't be a fair .
I'm taking on the role of Greece, because playing Egypt inside of lands that aren't part of Egypt is simply silly, and I'll get nowhere as a tribal nation. If you want to give me something, give me Crete, as I'm laying a claim on it and Cyprus anyway due to the Greek populace in those locations.
That's that.
Sooo... about that turn... and map... I am kinda confused about the map as of right now.

I already told you I was giving you Crete. Face just said wait until next turn.
And I would have helped you industrialize and given you all of my technology. It wouldn't have just been a "Here have this lol bye" kind of thing. I would have helped you make it strong.
I'll still help you build up Greece if you like.
It would've been more fair and simple if you had let RedSyndicate keep all his territory in one piece.
That was Seed Eater's doing.
It's pointless now.
Boy I sure am glad I've adopted a "If it isn't in the Americas fuck it" policy.

I don't really want free stuff, and I have nearly zero interest in war, unless it comes to that to obtain the Greek islands from Turkey. Other than that, I'm cool to sit around and be nice and neutral. We can trade and such, but I don't think being a burden upon Egypt and Yemen is very nice or fair.
