[Layarteb]

Well I have now completed 2 of 4 documents of my history. There are still 96 pages to go. Work has been easy so I've been getting them in here and there. The March 31 deadline can stand still.

Take a peek if you want, it goes into the end of the Conquests, May 2006.

[Hi No Moto]

I hereby claim the following:

Papua New Guinea (Islands [New Britain])
Papua New Guinea (Islands [New Ireland])
Tonga

Also noticed East Timor on the available land spread-sheet but that should be already claimed by myself. Also Palawan is not on the spread-sheet & is not coloured in on the map. Should that be claimed by myself already as well?

East Timor is part of your claim on the spreadsheet. As far as Palawan I remember that having been an occupation once upon a time. Perhaps it was a claim attempt that never panned out and so it was forfeited. If you have otherwise please show me the thread and I'll adjust.

[Estainia]

You invade the NAR and your economy survives it?

Either way, I see no reason to reject this out of hand, welcome, neighbor. Go through the motions and get your intro up.

[Tolorian Empire]

You invade the NAR and your economy survives it?

I didn't put it in the history, but the economy suffers because of the failure of the invasion. That part will be included in the RP.

[Layarteb]

I don't see where there was an invasion of NAR.
Also will there be a new RP or a resumption of the original given no claims have materialized and you're more or less submitting the same history/app?

I mistook Niger and Nigeria, m'bad.

[Tolorian Empire]

If I have already talked to Apilonian about the outcome of this RP, then could I just go ahead and consider that a part of my established history, or would I need to complete the whole RP for it to be official?

Iron out an agreeable end to the event between the relevant parties and you should be alright, double check with Layarteb, however.

Earth II's History 3.0 Project is finally upon us!

Please take a look at this link. I have deconstructed all of Earth II History and created separate files for each individual player, NPC, and former player of significance. There is a ZIP file within the DROPBOX folder that allows you to download every TXT file in case you want to view them all on your computer.

The goals of this project are threefold:

1) Clean up old and conflicting history
2) Add new history
3) Reform the core that is Roman history

The first step in our project is the review of individual histories. Please take some time and review your history entry for any errors or omissions within them or things you would like to change. You should also review those of NPCs that might be involved with your history as there will be entries there too. Do not fret if you see duplicate entries, this was an entirely manual process.

If you would like to make changes please submit them into the main thread as you would any regular history change form, which can be found here. You may submit changes to your nation or an NPC if it deals with your history as well. At best, use this opportunity to bring your history up-to-date, which is through the end of calendar year 2016.

All changes should be submitted by the end of the day on February 28, 2017. If there are no changes to submit just telegram me that you do not have any changes so I can check you off of the list. If you do not telegram me or submit changes, I will fit in your history accordingly and should there be conflicts, I will defer to my judgement. This date is a HARD DATE so please act accordingly. You will all receive this as a telegram as well.

So given that I still have ~200 pages of written history to put into TXT format I am pushing this deadline out one month to March 31, 2017 as I won't be finishing all of it between now and Tuesday evening.

May 31, 2017 is the new date. Still a lot of work on my part to do, especially with sorting out NPC conflicts.

Due to a genuine lack of interest, and rather than leave you all guessing, I unilaterally withdraw all my involvement with E2, I wish you all fun and luck in your future stories and apologize, I'm just too busy and not really feeling it. Bye.~

Right-o I'll just put Lacoze back to an NPC.

[Terra Reborn]

After a great deal of thought, and discussing the matter with the appropriate people, I have made the decision to follow in the footsteps of Marimaia and turn the Empire of Apilonia into an NPC state in order to take up the mantle of Rome. I have had a great deal of fun with the EoA, and it breaks my heart to lose it, however Rome has always been a fascination for me and I believe that it has far more options for me in the future going forward; the opportunity to restore Rome to glory is not one I can pass up.

I hope that players will not pick apart the EoA and will treat its history with respect, and that, ideally, a new player will at some point do the same.

As such the EoA should be turned into an NPC with the following (I am assuming all claim threads are thus abandoned)

Oooooooh. Howdy, Aegean neighbour

Obviously I totally know where you're coming from with this. Sometimes a change is just what you need.

[The Roman Star Republic]

Indeed it is!

And I love Rome, it'll be good to play it in MT instead of FT (as you can tell from the nation name!)
