====================================================================== WP-09-Announce [Moderator]: Proposed rule change Date: Sun, 06 Dec 2009 15:10:46 +0000 Announcement from the Moderator to All Leaders: I see from the messages that the three Leaders in this Universe are preparing a major Duel, and that two of the three have suggested eliminating the "private messages". It's trivial to change that in the software here (so there's no chance of cheating), if you so wish! But all three should agree... ... and speaking of the three of you, since this will be a battle worthy of legends, and it might spice things up for you each to know who the others are (since you already know each other, you just don't know that you know), well, let me know if you want to know! The risk of cross-gaming is minimal at this point, since we have only the two universes... -- Webs of Power, http://www.websofpower.com/ WP-09-Diplo [Sunshine]: Rule Changes Date:Sun, 06 Dec 2009 16:13:22 +0000 To reply, log in at http://www.websofpower.com/?Page=Login or use your newspaper form.

(This is intended to protect the privacy of other players.) ====================================================================== I am happy to change the rules as suggested, namely getting rid of private messages and allowing people to let others know who they are. I've let my persona slide lately, so I'm doubting that any one will be surprised to learn that I'm not a teenaged girl... Also, I'd like to officially suggest that the war be extended until there is a winner. I don't know if we have done that yet. One question I had regarding private message issue: can we change it back if we decide we don't like it? I will admit that I'm a little worried that a 3-way war necessarily ends in stalemate. If we find a year from now that we're not making any progress at all, can we choose to go back, or will Bob not be checking moderator e-mails anymore? Finally, can we get rid of the 2-message rule on public messages? I don't think that any of us are going to fill up each-other's in boxes, but I've enjoyed on occasion chatting with Adam, and I don't see any real benefit to cutting off discussion anymore.

And units. Have six regions with links still possible. Agree with all rule proposals. Identity, Ivan Baird. Will remain in character. WP-09-Diplo [Sunshine]: Heya!

(The former Warlords characters of mine have generally all been discarded, alas... Prenthenil was the last to go in the 2008 Tournament here... actually the Warlords experience (of those characters, not me personally) was an interesting lesson about how treachery only pays in the short term in a closed-ended world... anyhow, lately I've been interested in the financial markets and local issues, so you may remember me as Schwarzenegger or Terawatt... and of course I've been in most of the other Universes too...

I had just assumed that you were The Professor. I think he went with an econ-theme a while back (in a game I played as eeee. Or was that you as well? Anyway, good to see that it's you; I was worried that it would be imposing on Bob if this game went on for more than a couple of months. Well, if I was going to be playing in drawn out war, what better two people to be playing with! Good luck in the future battles! -- Sunshine
