Im afraid it's nothing to do with 'stronger stuff' or other of this masculine bullshit as I call it.
It's about Sterk wanting the game his way and polling for a restart in the most appropriate moment.
I'd say you need to grow up and stop playing great intriguer on others.
The only person who brought something down was you, assisted by Lurken, who from the very start created a totally unbalanced situation by pledging to you.
Even if the first game didn't run as smooth as expected, it at least didn't have a large sign 'Lurken's and Sterk's sandbox'..
I wonder what is the point, as the most expierenced players have left, the only one to whom you can prove your gaming talents is yourself..
It was my mistake to ever let you in and you have no right to throw a word into my back having spoiled a game where I put a LOT of effort in arranging.
And to others asking the reason of my harsh words and the backing - do I really need one?
Think of a single promise Sterk has held in this game..
You can always be a good gamer, but you need to be a good person first.
EDIT: P.S. - this comment was made after reviewing last save - I was simply too disgusted at this whole 'gargantuan realm' issue.
and now I'm pissed that I cant expand Byzantium the reaosn why I play Byzantium is that hey at least theres a chance I can expand vs the Turks. Poland let me goddamn expand the way any player expands in any other game, sowhat if the Khazak hordes come a calling Ill deal with them.
Well...
Sterk, when are you actually going to release Hungary? And please don't say you're looking for a good candidate from amongst your family. I'd imagine you had more than enough time this past Sunday to look for one, especially as you were enjoying an extended time of peace. Varyar already suggested 2 weeks ago that even the duke of Slovakia was a good choice (he'e Hungarian as well). I again brought up the issue a week ago, but it seems it fell on deaf ears. Please decide quick, because this upcoming session I'm raping 'em Polish vassals in Iberia whether you like it or not.

Please, leave the Poor Turks alone. I wanted to play as Persia in eu2.
Start claiming titles in Italy and SMASH them all.
I do not intent to go past Armenia by the end of the game but I find it ridiculas to be so limited in how and where I can expand into that land is mine by right and I am taking it during this crusade you should be cheering me on this way the Seljuks wont take this time to smack you silly in Syria, and Poland I have the support of the members of the Grand Alliance and will officially join them if you even attempt to use force rather then words to halt my progress.
All I can say is I hope this game is not dying. I have enjoyed it thus far and I have seen less and less people bother to show up on Sunday's.
If that is the case perhaps we can discuss ways to repair the state it is in or restart one or something. The majority of players that are here have added to the game and I enjoy interacting with them.
As far Sterk I wish to see him live to word sometime soon. It is fun to amass a massive empire and stuff I understand but when you give your word you must live by it.
Just my thoughts on these matters.

Man, making threats all over the place, eh?
Regardless, Sid, please don't get so mad over this. It's part of the game. Do you just want there to be no wars in the game? Should I just sit back and let you do whatever you want? I didn't think that was how the rest of the world should have reacted to my expansion, but I beat them. You beat me and you can expand freely until someone else challenges it. However, instead of challenging me and threatening me, perhaps you should have at least tried some negotiation (and not just saying that I should support you and that I have no chance against you, I mean offering me something or giving something up yourself).Just please consider this: this is, at the end of the day, just a game. It's not a big part of life, and it doesn't determine anything in your future. It's just a way to have fun in one's spare time. Yes, emotions may run high quite often, and I am certainly the biggest offender in that sense, but I know that it is, after all, just a game.
I would also like to address the point Richard brought up. There were lots of people last session who did not show up and did not post. Varyar and Lurken posted, but I am not aware of anyone else. From here on out, I'm considering Finnelach as having left the game, and Cyrus is questionable, as he has contacted me. This is a serious problem. Maybe it's my fault, considering my country's size, and failing to release Hungary. By the way, by "suitable candidate" I meant a player to take Hungary. That's why I want to release Hungary, if there is a player willing to play it. Now, perhaps I didn't clarify this earlier, and that's also my fault, but the only player who has so far shown interest was Cyrus, and we even had agreed before the last session for him to play one of my dukes and then for me to grant him the Kingdom of Hungary. Obviously, as Cyrus didn't show up, that didn't work out as planned.
Once again, Bin, please stay out of the thread, you're only adding negativity. If you continue to disrupt the thread with negative comments, I will inform a moderator and ask him to intervene.
Too bad to hear that Germany kinda imploded. Fudge.
And to add insult to my injury, I will be late at best on Sunday. As my LARP(Live Action RolePlay) ends on Sunday, and we need to pack up and stuff. Will try to be there as soon as possible.

I'll probably be back this coming sunday. Might be a bit late because of work though.
I'd rather see that you didn't. No need to get so serious before things actually get out of hand.

Larp is uber, I was a samurai in my game, I wore a karate uniform with an Army combat vest I also contributed to the weapon making sadly it all kinda peetered out not enough people were interested and too few peopkle had money to pay for the ducttape.
And Sterk, checks ones PM box every once in a while sheesh.

your comments before that were serious so i got the feeling that the last part was serious too... but now everything cleared
ehm, wel about the other thing, i did show up, i did post a message and of course i'm still interested in this gmae! like richrad i have a good time playing this.
Sid Meier said:Larp is uber, I was a samurai in my game, I wore a karate uniform with an Army combat vest
Oh my...ducttape? Sigh...samurai with an Army Combat Vest? Sigh...I LARP in a much higher "division" then that. Try a priestgroup on a converting mission to a semi-hostile village, with a consistant color coded clothes, tent, everything. Weapons are nothing for us, we talk. Since it is cheaper and easier. Why cheaper? Since all the LARPs we go to, have a high standard for the weapons, they myst look like the real deal, sort of, and so on. Meaning that the material is much more expensive then ducttape. But eventhough we LARP at different "divisions" it is nice to meet fellow LARPers.
EDIT: Posted at realized that it all sound patronizing, it was not my intention at all. Sorry, if it sounded the wrong the way.
Alright people we need more Perms get your collective asses in this thread we need someone to be hungary.
Im sorry to inform that with 2 exams coming on monday, i think its better to be absent this week. But i have been absent many times now and kinda lost interest as well. Crusaders doesnt seem to be good as mp game. I think its better i resign and give naples a better future with a new perm.
Or you must think differently, but ill certainly miss this weeks session.

Well, our problem would be that most likely no one will replace you if you choose to drop out entirely. We'd hate to lose you but if the game isn't fun anymore for you there's not much to do about it.
