I forgot to ask beforehand, just a simple question to all the players. I should keep the game (and things related to it) simple right? For example, no Soundcloud, special maps, etc. Those were fun and all but distracted from the basic game.

Just wanted to ask. I personally think I should revert back to simple "run the game" like Duuring and Caz.

[BabyJesus]

Yes

[DoctorWarband]

I liked those but if you think it's mindless effort then no.
It's your game, make the choices...

[Rhen]

I don't want to be that guy, but, uh, shouldn't like there also be some sort of stated alliance between all the HRE members?

I would love to see some more detailed posts.
Posts that do consist out of one action only without any flag or roleplay are extremly boring in my opinion and make the gamethread look boring as well.

The Austrian Empire would like to accept all Trade Agreements(Portugal, Prussia).

We also begin to reform our military, as it is clear after the defeats in Italy changes have to be made!

Austria accepts all Trade Agreements that were offered.

^ Posts like this are not fit for a major power in my opinion, because playing like this is going to break the game the same way as it has happened before: Major powers do not really care about diplomacy and creative strategies in the game and make it unplayable for longer time.

No offense against Caz, but I just hate this playstyle because it looks like "Hey I'm Austria, I do not need to care because people can not mess with me anyways". Such playstyles have broken our games before and I would rather enjoy to NOT see it happen again.

[BabyJesus]

I hate it when players add a bunch of useless information and have really long posts that don't actually do anything.

I don't remember that play style ever breaking our games before. However, I do remember over detailed posts ruining our game

Also I think you might have gotten confused by what volk actually was asking. She was talking about updates being detailed, not individual players.

[Raddeo]

I'd also vote for detailed updates, as detailed as possible. Roleplaying is what makes this game interesting. I agree with Ted, that this also applies to players, those who can't write anything more that "I accept all offers" simply ruin the game.

Btw. for some of you guys, magical trick...

Thanks to this piece of magic your flags won't take half of the screen

We should do a Pike and Shotte BoP next set in the 30 years war in Europe.

Ffs we have just started this BoP....

@BabyJ nope, I was referring to the players because DoctorWarband had allready posted something that covered my opinion on the matter, that's why I quoted him.

And yes, things like this killed our games before. A major power going rather afk and posting only two or three sentences per turn instead of taking part in actual diplomacy is completly breaking the game. Remember what happened when France went afk during the last BoP....

And @McLovin: Bold your actions please 

[Bravescot]

You know what, I got a lot of time to kill: Batavian Republic please. If I am permitted to play that is.

Oh no, the Jew is back! (said the only real Jew here)
