Listen, someone be the bigger man and just move.

Fucking christ. Ender, do you want my land? I'll move back to Nebil.

Both of you, quit it!If I gotta crack a few skulls, I will.We operate this by Majority, Alf. If you and Boerd disagree, I'll sort it.Now, to business...We are losing people like flies in a Flytrap. Unless we come up with something fast, i'll shut this down and start again, Ancient Style.In all fairness, Boerd had claimed Laen. And Raptor was going elsewhere originally. I'm going to flip a coin three times. Heads, it's Boerd's. Tails, it's Raptors1.2.3.

According to your original post, before you passed the head GMship to me, you had stated that only NS's in the NS Dump were to be considered accepted, therefore making anyone's claim to a land moot if they did not at the least have a NS skeleton in the NS dump thread.

Also, I'll not tolerate any hostility in this thread, regardless of who it comes from, as I have taken on the responsibility of heading this thread and will ensure it is done so correctly, hopefully without further conflict. If there is issue with this, then by all means, let's settle it via PM, but the next person to drag this conflict back out into the OOC will not only be in violation of the thread's rule #5 of "Don't be a dick" but will also be in violation of Guild rules. This is an RP for fun, let's try to keep it that way.

Hear, hear in response to Lum.

I'm coming rather close to leaving, not that it would matter to some people.

[Legion X51]

Double post again.

[HazmatMedic]

Alright, ive had it with this crap.

Game over. End of thread. Film at 11.
This is getting a total mulligan. I am redoing it. And this time, I'm in charge, regardless of how many tantrums I throw. I am trying to host a simple RP here, but if we keep moaning about it, then we try again. And again.

If there is one thing ive learned about all this, it's I should stay GM and stay true to my original plans.

You want to keep going? Be my guest. But I'm out.

Viva la Lyra!

Let me stop you right here.

I've been rather patient through this entire shitstorm for the past, what, three hours or so that it's been going on? This glorious spectacle--if you can even call it that--has resulted in two or three players already dumping the thread on the side of the road because it's pretty much junk at this point. Seriously, come the fuck on; this issue hardly warrants a complete redo of the thread, which would be the THIRD time around for a thread that has 10 IC posts.

Here's what happens. Raptor keeps his landmass, and Ender gets Calxus. My people will relocate to Nebil, and everyone else in the thread will relax for a second before you all fool around and cause what remains of this thread's playerbase to QQ (cry) and RQ (ragequit).

I agree 100%

[HazmatMedic]

I'm beyond caring. My nation is untouched either way, but I'm sick of the arguments. You want to keep going, that's fine, but I'm bailing out.
With sincerest apologies

P.S. New thread. It's set in Ancient Times, so it'll be much simpler.

[Titanic]

:/ I think the best option would be to remove the source of the argument, cannons, etc

Edit: I'll probably be out until all the problems are solved.

[TheSovereignGrave]

Ugh, I would really rather not have this die. I find so few nation RPs that I actually want to join. Can we please just drop all the arguments and just RP?

Actually, are we going to just start over with the IC posts? Since we can't really continue where we left off.

If you guys are still game, then I'm good with continuing it.

[So Boerd]

The issues at present are:
-Is Haz or Shimm right about who is GM
-What becomes of Laien
-How far is too far with Gunpowder

[Slamurai]

Jeez louise, what happened when I was away?

[HazmatMedic]

Hell happened.

I wont GM because I am no longer playing. So I guess that makes Shimm admin
laein, I should think, belonged to Boerd.
And everyone else, and I mean EVERYONE else, stuck with arquebuses as being nost advanced weapon. Then the cannon thing happened, I said "Land Cannons are rarer than boat cannons, but they are more powerful, screw you (lol)" and everyone lost their mind
"That language is unacceptable for a GM"
"I have never, ever said screw you to a fellow RPer"
"Shows what kind of GM you are"
Seriously, did NO-ONE pick up on the fact that maybe, possibly, potentially I was kidding? You know, larking about, having a bit of fun, the same thing we're all here to do? Or did everyone think I was some sort of vindictave troll who wanted to powerwhore and who thought every word that left his mouth was gospel?
Why can't anyone take a BUCKING joke anymore?

[Alfhedil]

The issues are resolved, as per Hazmat's post.

As per cannons, I may have to simply disbar them from being utilized in a naval role, since that seems to be what has got everyone upset. Barring that, if you can cite historical references to a cannon being used on land of a certain type, then it's fair game. Just remember rule #5: Don't be a Dick.

With Laein, I will give Raptor three days to fully complete his NS in order for his claim to be legitimate, if he does not, then Laein is yours Bored.

[So Boerd]

He may have it. I am out, haunted by the spectre of the Draaaaaaaaaaagon Eeeeeeeeengiiiine.

[TheSovereignGrave]

So... Who's actually still going to do this one? And who's just going to Hazmat's new RP?

A valid question. According to Shim's responses to me through PM, he intends on keeping this open so long as interest in it remains. Depending on the current player count for this RP, I may or may not stick around.

ASTA is right on the money, I'm still here to GM it as long as people are still interested.

[HazmatMedic]

I'd rather everyone who joined this RP joined the new one. There won't be any ambiguity or questionable techs, like this one had. Also, no cannons. Ballistas, maybe, but no cannons.
Boats will ram each other or crews will board one anothers boats. No gunpowder, full stop/period.
