Allow me to point out the following :
1) It's not my fault people are inactive. As I've said in the Preparations thread, "it's a (not so) organized forum game", or something along those lines. Besides, People chose which sides they joined. It's THEIR duty to participate in order to help their side win.
2) I have a freaking life to get to, thus meaning I have stuff I myself am doing besides managing this thread. If there were more Game mediators choosing fair decisions and etc., it would run A LOT more smoothly.
3) Do you know how many pages of stuff I have to update every time I stop monitoring this thread and turn my attention to a game, anime, or building my gundam kits? An average of 2 pages User default. It's annoyingly difficult to keep up with so many things and at the same time make the rules clear.
Son of Jesus, now I know how Nexon feels when they have to put up with Customer Support ._.

But you never offered other people if they wanted to be game mediators, so that point is entirely your fault, along with the 2 pages of crap between you checking up on the thread. If you said that you wanted one or two additional mediators, then there probably wouldn't be as big of a mess as there is now. D:

Well, the this war is supposed to be us acting as guinea pigs anyway. So it's expected to be unorganized. But for inactive members, you can summon stuff to replace them for a bit. Whether they'll be useful or not is up to the GM though.
A turn qualifies as 5 turns, right? So why not next time, after 5 actions are made, we all have to wait for a GM to post the results before we can post again. Also, so it just won't be people with no lives being the only people capable of doing actions *coughcoughtatsucoughcough*, after someone has performed 3 straight actions, they "tire" out and become incapable of performing an action for a single turn. Or something like that.

I'm not blaming you, pika.
I would prefer it if we had to depend on you to post, so you could move at your own pace, or have a back-up GM thats active.
This ran pretty good for the first half, no problem.

I would have assigned more game mediators, but I feared that they'd make wrong decisions, and it's annoying explaining all the basics of the game since I make them up.
Alright, let's have a vote for the following :
1) Continue the war.
2) Use this war as a beta test and end it to re-organize what we've learned works and doesn't work.

Continue until everyone active quits, and make a new thread for discussion on rules for the next one that everyone can agree to. A lot better than one person making rules up pretty much as he goes (how many times have you changed the rules during this war?).

There were only two instances where the rules were changed, and one instance was an addition to the rules since there wasn't a rule in place for reviving (Which some people didn't understand properly) and the other was when I didn't clearly point out the 5 turn wait per action rule at the beginning, which was something I had to establish late in the previous thread since some people couldn't follow the one action per page rule (I personally believe it would have been easier this way). There was also confusion in the difference between a "Turn" and taking your "Action".

I'm sorry. I'm the one who wanted the 1-page rule changed, mostly because I work with 40 posts per page (Page 6 for me, btw).

Beta test, plz.

i think we should see if this game can run it's course, in the event more problems spring up.
once the game has run itself into the ground, it can then be used as trial run to be studied/dissected/looked at so that we can better prepare for another war.
and... stuff.

I've decided, and as of now, the game will end labeled as a Beta Test, and I will now commence with game tweaking and balancing. In the future, expect me to present a rule sheet in lame man's terms (For people who don't feel like reading paragraphs) and see how it appeals to everybody.
