Dear Yotta, can you select a color that is less similar to mine? We can both be blue, but I'd preffer it if we were more different shades of blue.

Sure, I'll swap my color around.

Uhm nope, i won't do the extra work of writing a nation summary unless you actually take a place if someone drops out/is defeated. ^^ - in other words you get one once you are in the game.

As for internet, i was visiting my folks so yeah, the internet is mostly fine but thanks :D

:'( So it was first come first serve (erm, or at least, 'within a day of thread creation'). Ah well. I'll keep watch in a back seat here with the others. I felt a bit demoralized due to timezones. :-X

Cheers though! :D

I presume that we're not supposed to look at other people's actions, yes?

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.
