((I haven't quit, it's simply a death poem for the game. From the lunacy that is IRC this game is dead. If someone brings it back I'm still in though))

I hope the game goes well for all, but whatever happen the game will take a different direction for what i signed for.

One potential wah to fix things might be to go to a one player per country, at least as far as government goes. Maybe we can work a system for private citizens like businessmen to meddle and plot.
Another thing that might help is to introduce a character creation 'system' where you can pick say two benefits and a weakness. So maybe Jean Patrique O'Dea would have being very dapper and wealthy as his advantages, and a habit of overindulging in coca leaves and absinth for weaknesses.
Possibly something similar might work for countries, I.e. a great power can have x number of points to spread among y stats. We'd sacrifice realism a bit but settle a lot of haggling over what is 'realistic' for this and that.
Another idea would be a more substantial shift in focus, where the players are all part of the same steam punk state, competing and conspiring with on another.

Due to many players leaving and varying opinions on how the game should go, the game will be in a indefinite state of limbo until stats have been set, history has been written, and most importantly the overall focus of the game has been decided. I am open to any and all suggestions, so PM me or catch me on IRC and hopefully this can be saved and made into a workable format. Thank you all for your patience and dedication.
Informal poll, which aspect of a potential game is more appealing:
1. The grand strategy and statecraft
2. The character creation and roleplay elements
