<div class="IPBDescription">Before we begin...</div> Before TWG II starts, players recieve their roles and such. There is a slight pre-game. Here, everyone who is playing will choose one country the will represent during the game.

There are three conditions for the chosen country.

1. One person per country, like the signups this is first come first serve.
2. The country must be a member of the United Nations.
3. Pick a country that's relativly developed, and not just a rising nation.

This will not play a huge role within the game, but it will add to the theme which you will find out when the game starts.

Swiftspear - Canada
wnn - Israel
Petco - Australia
RobbyC - Iceland
Catalyst! - Vietnam
im lost - Djibouti
Isamil - Germany
Chrono - Russia
ZupiCo - Sweden
Abra - Denmark
Mantrid - USA
BadKarma - Greece
Renegade - Ireland
Comprox - UK
Quaunaut - Italy
Condizzle - Japan

btw... Whatever you're thinking the theme may be at this point, I pretty much guarentee you you're wrong <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

<a href='http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001295.html' target='_blank'>Here's</a> a list of members of the UN to help with your choice.

Also... if you're not in the IRC channel yet then get in there! #ns-twg on irc.gamesurge.net

    No problem, you don't have to live in the country to represent them.

    I pick Japan! Their chibi army will destroy you all!
  • im_lostim_lost TWG Rule Guru Join Date: 2003-04-26 Member: 15861Members
    I pick Djibouti, simply because it sounds like a cool name.
  • SwiftspearSwiftspear Custim tital Join Date: 2003-10-29 Member: 22097Members
    hehe lost, awesome. Now get your butt on IRC!
  • im_lostim_lost TWG Rule Guru Join Date: 2003-04-26 Member: 15861Members
    I'm not at my own computer right now, and there isn't an IRC client on this computer. (I could put one on here if I wanted to, but I wouldn't use it enough to be worthwhile.) I will connect as soon as I get back to my own computer (in about an hour, I think), and I will always at least be idling there after that.

    You can thank my 9th grade geography teacher (from 6 years ago) who loved that country name.

    My god, my teacher had that same obsession. That and the Bullsheviks. I have no idea how to spell it; kind of shows how great of a teacher he is.
  • CondizzleCondizzle Join Date: 2004-10-05 Member: 32107Members
    My teacher did that too. She said it's becaue it sounds like 'booty' <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> .

    Google is your friend.

    <a href='http://www.techwarelabs.com/irc/' target='_blank'>http://www.techwarelabs.com/irc/</a>

    I haven't actually tried it, so I have no idea how well it works, but I imagine you will find out soon enough.

    Obviously, your google skills are more elite than mine.

    [EDIT] NOTE: You cannot use this IRC client to connect to other servers. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> Thanks anyway. [/EDIT]
  • im_lostim_lost TWG Rule Guru Join Date: 2003-04-26 Member: 15861Members
    Swiftspear has informed me that it won't actually work, since it only connects to techware labs channels. Sorry about that.
  • ZupiCoZupiCo Custom titles rule&#33; Join Date: 2003-03-22 Member: 14792Members
    Hmm, found an IRC web client on gamesurge's site, seems b0rked though. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
    Guess I'll have to wait until I get home.
  • im_lostim_lost TWG Rule Guru Join Date: 2003-04-26 Member: 15861Members
    The thing on gamesurge's site works fine. I just connected with it, and saw myself connect from the client on my computer.

    I really hope the Quaunaut and docchimpy pick their countries fast. I have a special shift at work today and if I don't have their choices soon, I won't be able to start the game about 9:30 PM EST.
