Actually yeah, 1585 is more reasonable. I computed the date on the OP (and when that was edited) versus the date right now times 5, so... yeah it is 1585.

Anyway, the reason I posted is because I might not be able to post for the next three days so if anyone was planning to or is trying to contact my nation, I'll try to get back to you as soon as I can.

@Quirina: I'll reply to your explanation as soon as I can. Really sorry for holding you up in the IC but RL just filled up my sched. ;)

Btw, where in the IC did you capture Polynesia? You just RPed that you explored it then the next post says you captured it? Also, what do you mean by "whole of Polynesia"? Parts of Polynesia are already owned by Rawhitiroa and Polynesia stretches all the way to Hawaii.

I think he was talking about RL French Polynesia, not the entire thing. I just realized that I was thinking of French Pol., not the big one.

If that's the case, that's very far. It's halfway between Australia and South America. Wouldn't he have discovered islands that were closer? e.g. Fiji, Solomon Islands

The Polynesia I was thinking about was Palau, Marshall Islands, Guam, French Polynesia, Samoa, and other small isles (not including Hawaii) in the North Pacific.

Those are actually part of Micronesia. Also, I've established a small colony in Palau and Guam already, sorry if it wasn't clear in my IC posts but if you would like, I'm willing to give up my ambitions of colonizing the rest of the Micronesia if you leave Guam (as well as the rest of the Marianas island chain) and Palau alone. :)

Pacific is different. Take Pacific claims like this: consider the sea as a part of the claim. Why? Because all those islands are far apart, and you just can't get them all like that. So, yeah, sea is a part of the Pacific claims, to counter that.

Well then, for claiming purposes, all the islands bordering the Philippine Sea (except for Okinawa and the Japanese Pacific Islands). But for IC purposes, I only have colonies in Guam and Palau.

*sigh* I need to stop completely missing Vaxon. Oh well, time to pretend the war was called off (I mean I DO have Europeans arriving) and just expand through NPC's. Speaking of which, time to conquer Texas :twisted: Also, as a reclarification, I will not be on after Tuesday until next Monday at the (hopefully) latest.

Okay here it goes: The Spanish West Indies consist of the rest of Micronesia, with the exception of Guam, Palau and the Marianas Island chain.

The expedition from Aceh was ordered to return to Aceh and instead the expedition will come from Japan instead. We did not cross anymore the waters of Rawit and just ordered the merchants in Japan to expedite from there. The merchants in Aceh were currently circumnavigating the globe from Aceh to the tip of South America, SWI and back to Aceh.

1785?!

Alright, I don't think anybody has an idea wuddafuq is going on, so I am going to ask all people to cease posting ICly, unless its about diplomacy or an ongoing battle, until Horus comes back and clarifies the date. We don't want a crazy fudgeup date meltdown, and if it really is 1785, we need to work out how to incorporate that, or possibly slow down time massively, possibly retcon. Thank you, have a nice day.

If it's 1785, Bakarus wouldn't have that much land, would be a vassal (or atleast in Siberia), and Ukraine would be as large as the Russian empire without Siberia, and already would of had a Manitoba/Saksatchewan colony and such. Poland and Ukraine would be broken up as well.

I would not be a vassal. I would still be my own nation.

Speaking of land, thanks for reminding me. I do need to claim more land.

I'm going to remind every'un that posting a claim on a site that doesn't work, such as anything that's not imgur, will get your claim to be ignored. Thankee.

Nope. Imgur. That's all that I know that works, excepting urls that start with 'farm[number].staticflickr.com', but I really don't know what site that is. OP of my other RP uses that.
This has been a rule for a long while now. Fortunagen's claim was totally ignored, yours was ignored.

It's 1585. I accidentally put '1785'. Hopefully you haven't put any posts concerning this in the IC. I'm really sorry, it's all my fault. :(
To Voldo: Len Hyet has had the land for weeks. You never reported conquering him, he never agreed to it. Claim denied.
