No. If you were doing that, you would quote several people in the same post.

I dont know how to do that. Maybe you can help me with that.

Quote a post normally. Instead of pressing 'sumbit' when you're done, you press your keyboard 'enter' button twice. Then, you scroll down. There is a scrollable list of the last 25 or so posts of the thread. Click the quote button of the one you want to quote, and respond normally. Then, press 'enter' twice and repeat the process until you finish all posts you want to quote.

Sorry for posting four times in a row, but I have one more thing to ask. Why you hating on my Al? What'd I ever do to you?

I'm not hating on you

[Alouite]

Fine, Revised version
1) we started it 20 pages ago
2)Some players are Oping and advancing to quickly
3)No one actually rules it; Out titles are jokes
4) We are correcting, not blaming

Fine, Revised version
1) Correct way to post: 'User, I think your IC post is wrong because X Y Z.'
2) Wrong way to post: 'User, you're wrong, you godmod, it's your fault!'
3) All you did was number your incorrect post, so I numbered mine. Anything else?

What do you mean, I am listing my points. How is that worth arguing about?

[G-Tech Corporation]

So a smaller population if he is in Antarctica. He only wants 200.
Antarctica guy is accepted.

Thank you.

Wow! I got a new nickname! Antarctica Guy.

Are you offering exports of ice?

Because that would be a serious luxury good way over here in Indochina.

Out of curiosity, how do you intend to progress with your nation? To my knowledge the Antarctic Peninsula doesn't have much in they way of your traditional resources for the Neolithic, let alone the Copper or Bronze or Iron Ages.

What I mean is that you are blaming, not correcting.
What I mean is that repeating the same thing again is useless and it has a name: 'spam'.

I would assume they would have to trade with others to live, but how and with whom?

So telling someone they should change a post to make it more realistic is blaming? Also, why are you accusing me of spamming, I dont know how to quote more than one person, surely you could tell me how, please? It would help me improve on my behalf.

1. No. That is not what you said in that post.
2. I already explained it to you. Surely you could look at the post again if you forgot? It would help yourself improve.

Well, the Polaris Ocean is actually quite rich in food; even primitive fishing and hunting should keep them fed, but they'll have bone weapons, and that's about it.

The Ice would be pretty hard down there, they could throw it at each other if it comes to that.

1. Okay. How is this relevant to anything?

Look, this patricular conversation is over, thanks for teaching me how to double post though!

Look, no one tells anyone else when to stop posting, except if he is a mod, thanks for not recognizing your own mistakes though!

Dang, 7 pages. What I miss? Heard someone say they could have gunpowder...

I'm currently inventing Gaur-powered tanks with ballistae.

Whoa whoa, now you need to back up, I did not say that.

[Horusland]

By some logic, 'could have'. But no one does.
I don't know the exact date of discovery, but it only applies for China and other Asian areas, anyways.

I guess. But that means everything would have to be the exact same for gunpowder to be invented in the same region by the same people. Because we have started to rewrite history, very little is 100% assured.

Indeed. Though, to be honest, we have no idea what historically led to the invention if black powder in the first place; there are no legends about it's creation, it merely appears in the historical record.

What could lead to someone combining saltpeter (normally obtained in tiny impure crystals from dung heaps) with charcoal and sulfur and then lighting it is beyond me.

So the inventor would most likely be an insane "scientist", who combined poop, charcoal, and sulfur and then lit it on fire. The odds of that happening are quite low, and too be honest, it could be well into the 1500's that gunpowder is invented.

Haven't really thought of exporting ice. Thanks for the idea.

And I'm guessing Ar'ami'x could survive thanks to fishing. We could export fish, whale meat and blubber, penguin meat, seal meat and blubber, crustaceans, etc.
I will think of the rest tomorrow when I start posting in the IC thread.

You can basically think of Ar'ami'x as Southern Inuits.

Getting saltpeter from manure isn't an easy process anyway though; you have to combine manure with the right proportions of charcoal and wood, leave it for about a year, keep it constantly wet with urine (for the nitrogen to combine into nitrate) and turn it over at carefully paced intervals in order for it to produce saltpeter crystals in usable quantities. You then need to leech the saltpeter out of the morass bias scourging with very hot water, and only then will you have several grams of usable saltpeter for combination into black powder.

You have to have a very obsessed very crazy man who very specifically got a lot of help and time on his hands.

Production from bat guano is far simpler, and traditional in Laos funnily enough.

How would you make boats to trade?
