[QUOTE=iAmaNewb;47849252]Bye, we won't miss you.[/QUOTE] Congratulations, you've gotten yourself removed from the next turn. That's it everyone. I'm putting my foot down on this sort of treatment of one another. You get one warning, and that's a banning from participation in the next turn. After that, you don't get another warning, and you're booted. I didn't want anyone to have to leave and I should have taken action earlier, but there's no more pussyfootting when it comes to this.

[QUOTE=Satansick;47854405]I could establish a beachhead in Yemen.[/QUOTE] wha-what...
[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;47853449]go go go i have 3 i want 4 to make it fair[/QUOTE] When new players join, can you tell us what countries are taken? Don't really want to be surprised when the turn comes out.
All jokes aside, I really enjoy watching this rp. I want to join, but I feel I have subpar knowledge on the Middle East.
[QUOTE=Satansick;47854778]All jokes aside, I really enjoy watching this rp. I want to join, but I feel I have subpar knowledge on the Middle East.[/QUOTE] You have the internet bro, all you need to do is take some time and read up.
[QUOTE=Satansick;47854778]All jokes aside, I really enjoy watching this rp. I want to join, but I feel I have subpar knowledge on the Middle East.[/QUOTE] All you have to do is go to wikipedia, pick a country then read the brief paragraphs regarding it in the 60s. Literally only did that this whole RP (minus the fact that I took university course on the region couple years ago :v:)
