1991 Role Play: Brainstorming and Planning

24 Jan 2024, 00:21

NOTE: THIS THREAD IS A CONTINUATION OF: 1991 Role Play (Original Thread)

**NOTE: THIS IS JUST AN IDEA FOR NOW UNTIL ANY CURRENT FORUM RP GAMES END AND IF WE GET ENOUGH PARTICIPANTS**

Here we can discuss ideas about planning the roleplay, including what bloc nations should be in, landgrabbing issues, bloc balancing, etc. I'm going to put down people's names here who want certain nations, although nobody's locked in just yet - everyone has an opportunity to sign up for the nation they want. Major powers, such as Russia, USA, UK, etc. will only be given to trusted community members who have previous RP experience.

Western Bloc (NATO

USA* (Captain) - @GeneralTanke
Canada - @Taffyta Muttonfudge
UK* -
France - @Joe Bartolozzi
Germany* - @NEPTUNE the great
Sweden -
Italy - @Talvisota
Netherlands (AI)
Belgium (AI)
Luxembourg (AI)
Iceland (AI)
Denmark (AI)
Norway (AI)
Ireland (AI)
Saudi Arabia (AI)

Eastern Bloc (Warsaw Pact/Cominform/Comintern

Russia* (Captain) - @Claudio NVKP
Ukraine* -
Romania -
Yugoslavia* - @AleksanderZ
Algeria - @Phillip Bosley
Libya - @ChessSamurai1999
Syria (AI)
Estonia (AI)
Latvia (AI)
Lithuania (AI)
Albania (AI)
Bulgaria (AI)
Cuba (AI)
Western Sahara (AI)

Neutral Bloc (Non-Aligned Movement

Spain - @russ_russ1
Finland -
Turkey -
n/d
Morocco -
Poland - @That polish guy
Egypt* - @Carking the 6th
Switzerland (AI)
Iraq (AI)
Austria (AI)
Tunisia (AI)
Portugal (AI)
Greece (AI)
Czechoslovakia (AI) (Remember Czechoslovakia didn't break up until 1993)

The captain of the neutral team would be chosen later.

Countries with an asterisk (*) will only be available for players with previous RP experience, as we will need quailty performances from these nations for the RP to play out adequately.

Also, so this thread doesn't turn into a 20-page off-topic s**tshow, please ONLY DISCUSS THINGS RELATED TO THE PLANNED 1991 RP HERE. Thank you.

Lol, you don't want to I think... the guys have been preparing this for like half a year, doesn't look like it will happen any day soon.

It'll not happen. These people ruined themselves, there were enough players but the self entitled admin chose to drag it.

Not even that. All the mods simply stopped communicating. Literally nothing is being done. I think most players are gone. Thing’s dead.

Dang

My father once said this: “If you don’t know anything, don’t assume you know and don’t say anything you don’t know is true”
I always got annoyed when he said that, but to be honest he’s kinda right if you think about it
Have a good day!

They all fought each other back in January and the rest got banned, so yes, it is dead. The admin takes no initiative...

Gee, I’m sorry for taking steps to prevent this RP from getting trolled over like the previous three.

I can’t force people to be active. Unfortunately forum activity hasn’t really plummeted over the last few months. I’ve been told part of the reason is because of the “forum Discord server” people are being more active in instead.

Shut up Alex, you aren't doing anything at all to get this started, stop making excuses when you literally make no steps in get this running. You've accepted a troll in this, so could hear less whining ad mire get-going. We already had got enough players but you chose this, goodluck starting the game this year. You've kept this dragging, not done any measure to even create rules. You've been incompetent, accept it. You just aren't fit enough to get this going.

you did absolutely nothing to get this started when the forums were in enough activity. F off mate. You've done nothing except whining, and complaining.

If you recall, I was the one who originally came up with the idea for this RP about nine months ago (when we decided to put it off temporarily until the current RP(s) had been finished). I was the one who set the scenario, teams, and with some other trusted users we worked on making rules.
About the rules which you say I didn’t even try to create. Me and six other users had a private convo SPECIFICALLY TO DISCUSS THE RULES FOR THE RP. And we did get at least a good draft of what the final rules would have been.
“You've accepted a troll in this...” - Claudio, go to the OP of this thread, look at the users who reserved spots in the RP, and tell me where you see a troll on that list. And no, you can’t just say someone’s a troll with no evidence to back it up and with nobody else on the forum sharing that opinion.
“We already had got enough players...” - No, we never had “enough players” to start the RP. See how many player nations don’t have players in the OP?
“I’m not fit enough” - LOL - Remind me again, what have you done to help get the RP going?
“You've done nothing except whining, and complaining.” - LOL again - Please show me where I have “whined and complained” - I don’t recall it. You resort to unsupported ad-hominem attacks because you have nothing substantial to argue with me about.

You have absolutely no guilt, no shame to even continue arguing.

It took you 7 WHOLE MONTHS of 'brainstorming' and still you haven't posted the rules, the only remaining country was the UK. Which I had applied as, but YOU removed me. I did specifically mention i wpu,d help with the rules, you not only ignored me, but proceeded to kick me out. It takes you, more than half of a year, to even figure out the rules, and it's to stop trolling? You proceeded to create ideas, make spots and just accept or kick people out of spots based on likeness. Yoh hsd no intention on starting this.

It only took us 2 months to write the rules. I'll send them to you in a PM if you want, it's kinda lengthy.

Are you trolling? I just looked at the OP and there are several players who haven't been active since God knows when, including Sweden, Ukraine, and Libya, to name a few. Based on feedback I got from other players, who told me about your performance in the previous RP, I decided you should take a less major role. The RPs before this had rules regarding who gets the majors, so why can't this one?

Claudio NVKP wrote:

I never "kicked you out". I only said you couldn't be a major power. You were/are still free to choose from any of the non-major powers whose players have gone inactive. Also, you never volunteered to help plan the RP.

Claudio NVKP wrote:

Aside from the major powers, who only trusted players with RP experience could take, the only reason I would reject a player is if they are a known troll, like how I rejected @Addin Turx above. (Which you had a problem about, why?) I never prevented someone from joining the RP based on whether I liked them or not (unless they are a known troll OFC). For example, I offered you other spots in the RP even after we removed you from the UK.

Prove to me that I had no intention of starting this like you said. Because if we got the necessary amount of players, I would have had every intention of starting this.

All the players are inactive because you didn't do it on time. It's a you problem.

When we (finally) got players for all the countries (except the UK of course), we realized that a handful of them were no longer active on the forum, or active in spurts, and we needed players in the RP to be active regularly. Like I said, I can't force people to be active. Real life is more important than video games. Don't blame me for decisions made by others. If you want to continue grumbling about inactive players, do it on their walls.

1 Jul 2024, 17:51 (edited)

You could've arranged more players, replacements were more than enough, you didn't care. Now you pull out the real life card, then why create the RP in the first place if you can't do the necessary and deend on others to do the same. You kicked me out for no reason too, including the UK. You simply had no intention on starting this. It's because of you this failed. You basically had all the time you needed, but failed in making even a simple decision on time, yet you still argue your point.

Edit: on further checking only poland and turkey were mostly inactive, otherwise the game could've been started arranging two more people.

Stop acting like a spoiled brat who expects everyone to do what you want them to. If you are so ademant about getting this RP going, why don't you try to recruit more (non-troll) players via chat, discord, etc.

I personally didn't have any real-life issues (although others did) and upon further evaluation, Libya, Ukraine, Finland and Morocco have also not been active lately. That makes 6 inactive players, plus the UK makes 7 open spots. So not "just a couple" as you said.
