So I suggest when anyone updates there story to add a new post with 'bump' and once it takes it to the top of the pile, just delete that 'bump' post.

You can't delete posts. And I don't think that the thread is that important that it has to be made a sticky. If everybody would do a writeup after he has left the game the thread would be bumped regularly and people could keep up with it without rechecking every of the posts for edits.

Not sure how to do this, but "bumping" may be the way to go. We'll cross that bridge when we get there (when the thread gets dropped into the next page).

Has hiddenmist posted anywhere that he would be absent? If he misses this next deadline I'm going to put him on AI or find a sub.

Oh yes you can Ich, anyone can delete there own posts. It works, trust me.

I just did it not with the history thread and then deleted the post...

I just tested it and it works. I posted then deleted the post. The thread was bumped up and there is no new post.

EA C'tis is really pissing me off.

So I ride to his rescue on my white horses (literally), and what does he do? He immediately starts *****ing about wanting his territory back, while LA C'tis and I fight you to the death. Now he's saying that he thinks he could've beaten you by himself.

Anyway, it's obvious that the despicable little craven has no intention of contributing to the war effort.

Grrrrrr. I've a luck-3 dominion, but two of my neighbors have misfortune-3 (with decent dominion scores), and I've lost *4* border provinces so far this game to barbarians/knights. Think that's frustrating when you picked a misfortune scale? Try it when you went with luck 3! Time to forge some jade daggers...

Actually there is a window on deletes. I think its 6 hours or a follow-on post. It helps keep the threads logical. After that you can only edit out the text to "remove" a post.

But for your purposes it should work.

I would like to see everyone put their nation at the top of the post. Maybe even in bold. It makes it easier to move back and forth to read both sides of something.

Also, I'm perhaps a bit biased, but I think how I have my post formatted is a good idea because it gives a clear visual indication when I post an update.


--------------------------------------


That way if you're trying to follow the story you can easily just read the sections you haven't read (or just the ones you want to reread) instead of having to read through the whole thing to figure out where the new stuff is. I'm just thinking many of these posts might end up being quite long and with dozens of them to scan through it'll be hard to figure out who posted something new.

Every time I read FAJ's account of of MA Abysia in the History of Perpetuality thread I can't help but grin.

I can't thank him there for the post so I'll do it here...

Edit: His dreams were crushed so other's dreams my live on. God bless you FAJ.
