You don't need to, you just need to understand it takes time for this sort of thing to develop. In other words, nuclear reactors would be coming in the early 20th century at this rate rather than under 40 years between the invention of the telegraph and nuclear fission.
Wait, should we send in our turns to Sobotnik?
wat
I'm fine with making stuff more in depth but I am NOT fine with you taking away technology we've already obtained. Although IMO you're making it too slow. The point of these games is to focus research and uncover things sooner than they were in real life because we know what it will do.
The "point" of the game is to realistically run a nation and change the course of history.
Yes. And what does focusing research do? It changes the course of history.
[QUOTE=Ven Kaeo;36048194]Yes. And what does focusing research do? It changes the course of history.[/QUOTE] Not when it becomes highly unrealistic. Granted these games are semi-realistic. But nuclear fission that early is silly.
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;36048204]Not when it becomes highly unrealistic. Granted these games are semi-realistic. But nuclear fission that early is silly.[/QUOTE] As long as you aren't going to retcon anything we have now.
I have to agree with Seed. Slowing research from here on out is fine but don't take anything away. We've had nuclear reactors for quite a while now.
Well, stopping them right now would be silly. Sobotnik should just make every nuclear reactor explode.
That is a terrible idea. All of North America, The Middle East, Russia, and most of Asia would be completely uninhabitable. Probably Europe too since Obnobs has nuclear reactor tech since VESTA
No shit, ven. If your scientists have as much a brain as you do, I can see how they got nuclear reactors already. Africa would be attacked, too, I built some reactors there.
You don't have nuclear technology.
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;36038867]If I were to run things, I would try to make it a bit more realistic. For one, I would get rid of all scientific advances not supported by theory. One example is how nobody has figured out yet that E = mc^2 and the implications of that. Only once you have the requirements, you could advance. Also people have been neglecting organic chemistry and metallurgy, along with economic theories.[/QUOTE] Ive looked quite a bit into metallurgy and harder metals that I could use for my Tank Armour, I already use Tungsten (I call it under Wolfram however) mixes in my tank armour and I also use it in my Tank rounds. I almost had a deal with Ven to get a reactor, but sadly Face took over Germany before that could happen. Depleted Uranium would have been one of the byproducts if I could figure it out. That said I think its a great idea what your proposing, however I also agree with Face on [QUOTE]I'm saying that we shouldn't have to go into extreme specifics, which is what Sobotnik is calling for. Not everybody is that abreast on some of these subjects. [/QUOTE] [editline]21st May 2012[/editline] Wow .. just sent important info to the wrong person :suicide:
You do realize my deal to 'give you a reactor' simply amounted to me placing a load of them in your country and then purposely overloading them, right? You HAVE to have caught onto that by now. Considering I demanded exclusive rights to their administration.
Yeah, I do, I even remember discussing selling it to Oceania.

I Also remember refusing to let you administrate them
Are we turning our turns in?
[QUOTE=Obnobs;36059874]Are we turning our turns in?[/QUOTE] No idea, Trying to figure that out for myself. [editline]22nd May 2012[/editline] I'd say go ahead and do it, Couldnt hurt.

Good lord this whole thing is a mess.
So do we resend the current turn or the next turn?
[QUOTE=Ruskie;36066367]So do we resend the current turn or the next turn?[/QUOTE] I sent in the next.
We can't do the next turn until the last turn is finished. If Sobo is taking over he needs to get everyone's previous turn and finish it.
True, I suppose. I'll resend the original.
Nigga get writin
Why are people sending in half made turns of other peoples turns? Secondly where the hell is the map?
EC didn't make a map. He basically posted half of the turn and didn't complete the rest. I don't know if we're assuming that last half-turn is a full turn, or what. Because I just sent in the turn I submitted for the half-turn he posted. If we're skipping EC's half-turn then I want to know if I get to send a replacement submission. Or if we're assuming the last one is canon, should we be submitting for next turn, or are you going to finish the half-turn?
So whats going on exactly? Is sobotnik finishing the old turn or making a new, There's been no confirmation.
Ok you bastards. Get me a map, and I will churn out something resembling what you want tomorrow evening.
