Soo the factional officers completed their first votes today with some surprising results. Anyways, a Japanese officer took the initiative, tossed away doing missions, and rolled into European Territory with a Fleet and knocked one of Europe’s weaker fleets out. Kudos to him on that. Not much else to report about today.

Right. So today was a bit of a bumpy ride due to my sleeping all day and feeling like crap and taking forever between me and Hime to figure out who was going to do what. Thankfully the battlewriters pulled through and we were able to get everything done without having to stop the rpg or anything crazy lke that. Hime added new people so I’ve heard, which brings a close to the Japanese officer opening. I also gave some people SP.
Happy Birthday to AModestProposal who also managed to have a new rule created today regarding dueling.

So day 2 is over and we had some more issues again today with math. Please remember that it takes a day to depart and exit a base. For instance, if you travel from the Pacific Ocean to Onogoro that takes a day. If you travel from Japan to Onogoro that takes 2 days. Also, use common sense and look at the map. Adjoining regions are considered one day apart, for every region you have to cross through to reach your final destination, that’s another day. There’s alot of flexibility on how to travel on the map, and there was even a case of someone making their flight path take longer than required. I corrected it, but I wont be doing it again. If, however, you send an email trying to travel to a location in less time than is even possible, I will just flatout deny the email.
Likewise, with joining, I expect you to clearly list your remaining credits and SP. If you do not I will not accept it. It just streamlines the process alot. Thanks. (Seriously. There’s only like 2 of us doing the work, making it easier for us makes it easier to keep the game afloat)
tl;d: If you want to take longer to go to a location, I’ll let you. If you try to magically teleport there faster, I’ll deny you.
And because Hime wanted me to post this and she’s sick:

Right, the first day of actions has been completed. All battles are up and all statuses have been updated. I would however like to take this time to say something. From now on if your emails are not properly formatted or are missing information I will decline then. Please remember that you are allowed ONE action a day. The exception to this rule is Purchasing, purchasing can be done in tandem with combat SO LONG AS ITS IN THE SAME EMAIL. Please do not send two emails. I know we didn’t specify that beforehand, so I’m saying it now. Not trying to be an ass about it but yeah from now on if you send more than one email I’ll delete the earlier ones without reading them. Also, enjoy this, I totally forgot about it.

With about 9 minutes left before the RPG is open for actions and I have finished everything. Good luck tomorrow, everyone.
Edit: Oh, Officer joining was increased to 4. That leaves room for 1 more Japanese officer.
~Zero
Everything left that needs to be done will be added tomorrow. We also decided to include the Super Soldier XP bonus in the Total XP since it’s a permanent XP modifier so some people now have XP listed higher (except Scarth, because I had already included Super Soldier into his total).
Edit: I’ll also be refusing anymore applications with the ‘Veteran’ trait. Seriously. Too many people have taken it.
Edit 2: Also from this point on joining as a Newtype is closed (you can still become one later)

My desktop has been rendered unable to connect to the internet (Despite my best efforts), It is neither the cable, the router, the modem, the operating system, or drivers. I’m pretty much boned in that regard. Im not sure at the moment how much this is going to effect the RPG.
