Looks like Trump won. When you adjust for the moderators' bias, I calculate a winning margin of ~+18% in Trump's favor. Without the adjustment, the margin is ~+7% in Trump's favor.

Did dave buy new set of hair after selling the game?

I figured that this would be a funny historical fact to add here.
In April, 1778, John Paul Jones attacked the British town of Whitehaven. He did manage to do some damage, having set fire to a ship, and having attacked two forts with no resistance, he sabotaged the cannons to help him escape safely. Since both of his ships had run out of lamp oil, he had no convenient way to burn down all of the British ships that were there(there were hundreds of merchant ships and coal transports anchored there), since the match had yet to be invented.
He had some sailors raid a public house, but they decided to get drunk instead, so he could only burn one ship.
Seriously. He would have burned all/most of the ships in Whitehaven, but his sailors got drunk on the job.
While he did manage to prove that the rebels could launch some small attacks, his plans were stunted by alcohol.
This might be the funniest thing I've heard about the American Revolution.

As the first step in our new strategy to transform atWar into a Reddit-style social media company, I've made some new forums -- check them out!

Any suggestions for other new forums we should add? Please let us know in the comments here!

I'm also realizing that there are too many forums already in some places, for example there are way too many atWar-related forums. I'm open to any suggestions for forums that we should remove, or combine.

I'm not sure if there's any room to combine the atWar forums. They each look like they all have a specific purpose that is well separated from the other forums. Combining or removing them may negatively impact the experience for new players, which may further cause issues with player retention.

Regarding the other forums, maybe new forums can be added if there is a very high demand for them. For example, if I write a book recommendation/review thread, it gets popular, and 30 other people post similar threads, maybe add a book review/recommendation forum. Really, though, I think you should replace the new forums(ignoring forum games) with tags that get added to the off-topic and forum-games threads. I wrote some ideas that I have on this in detail below.

Some website design recommendations:
If people seem to really like this, maybe make the off topic forum its own thing.
Maybe let players have an option that lets them change the community dropdown on the top, so that atWar forums and off topic forums are separate options(e.g. maybe have "forums" and "miscellaneous forums" as options. New players might prefer to look at these sides of the forums as separate things.
Note: This may be less useful if you use tags and remove some of the current other forums.

Regarding making off topic its own thing, maybe add a button to the atWar forums that take you to the other forums, and a button in the other forums that send you to the atWar forums.

A more useful option might be to make the different forum classifications collapsible with a +,- button. You can add a few db columns so that the website can store your preferences. Maybe also include a user option that disables this feature for people who don't want the forums collapsed when they get to the forums page.




My main recommendation is to add classification tags to the other forums(maybe also the atWar forums, but the forums seem to be more or less perfectly organized as is, and there wouldn't be much improvement to the preexisting forum threads, unless you were to have the mods go into each thread and manually add additional tags that would be relevant; it may plausibly improve future posts, though I doubt it. I suppose that there will need to be a tag for each existing forum so that people can search the atWar forum the way they search the other forums, and of course, the preexisting threads will need tags added to them).

Maybe restrict the number of topics to what you have now(or even remove all except for forum games and off topic, and move the current threads in the removed forums to off-topic, and add the appropriate tags), and use classification tags instead of adding new forums.

With classification tags, we can give a thread multiple classifications, allowing us to have our threads show up in more searches(e.g. I really love "The Armada" by Garrett Mattingly. If I wanted to write a book recommendation for it, that could go under book reviews or history. If book reviews become a topic, there are two places I can put it under, but people will only find my thread if they go to one of those forums. With classification tags, I can mark my new thread about his book as being under history, military history, and book reviews, meaning that someone who searches by any one of those categories would still see my post regardless).

I think that tags should work more or less like they do in stack overflow(I realize that it's a Q&A site, but the same idea applies: if you want to look at a thread about military history, search by classification tag, and you get anything about military history).

Doing this would mean that more people will read posts that fall under multiple categories, increasing the number posts and likes, and giving people a greater incentive to create new threads.

There should be a tag for everything that people are likely to write a post about. This includes all forums in the other forums right now, and then a bunch of other ones.

Maybe write a new thread asking people for all of the tags that they think should be added.

I think that the following tags should be added in addition to the ones related to the current forums:
-military history
-book reviews/recommendations
-film reviews/recommendations
-music reviews/recommendations
-uncategorized(a placeholder for preexisting off topic threads. Maybe have mods slowly add tags to them and remove that one. This would be a tag that users can't select when creating/editing a post themselves)
-probably up to a few dozen more.

Nah, Dave won't allow it

Hello,

Is it still possible to purchase exclusive weapons aka the general given when premium is given? If not, is there anyway someone can obtain them without having to buy the entire premium package?

Thanks in advance!

No I don't think so.

Or create a game that doesn't allow low rank like 1 or 2? Right? Wouldn't that eliminate the alt issue?

Yes that would also work! Good point!

I like the Mary, prods don't really, I prefer the traditional ways of Catholicism or even orthodox church, in the Republic it would be strange saying you're a prod. Like "Ah so like you're a unionist" so I guess a bit of politics gets into that one.
Nonetheless, we all Christians/Christiandom.
The churchs power is by man. Ruthlessness and greed gets through. So I'm not coming at this like, "My denomination is better" or anywhere close to that.

Also, I don't believe your picture/result you posted

Okay, cool story bro
Either way Irish paganism is an Absolute shit show. They're lost in nature at the end of the day. They love the "Old ways" go to newgrange and see "Celtic" gods even though the celts were foreign, and the celts didn't make newgrange or "The old ways" as they would say. Maybe slavic paganism or new age Americanized version of it is okay? But I know Irish paganism is totally lost in reality, history and spiritualy.
At least Hindus can work and communicate, our pagans over here just like Yoga, Starbucks coffee and act like Their zodiac signs are signal to "The gods" or newgrange (Newgrange wasn't made by "Their gods" or "Thier people"
Reason why the snakes are coming back and we need to eradicate them again just like the Holy soldier of Rome, St Patrick.

Other than Hindus, because I have some of a respect for Indians, what I've seen is Pagans are just stuck. They don't know which God or religion to choose, so they just "Meh, do it my own way" Ye get me? Like when people say "Yes, im spiritual" but don't choose or, don't feel comfortable in a certain tradition.

Edit, Jesus was a Jewish individual with traditions and of the Jewish heritage. Not a believer in Judaism. Jews don't like jesus, because JC was a Rebel... Guy was Roman too tbh...
"The chosen" people talk is more so about how they have the right to be there. Not actually that I pray to them or care for them more so than my own nation.
Either way, peace atwar anon

Being pro pagan is the worst, over here they're all larping as "True celts" and saying the "Underworld is here" and praise "evil spirits" and "Good spirits" , according to them. So like...more cringe than imaginary sky daddy.
At least we have one guy in our head, these lads have multiple guys in there

Pagans played a key role in creating many cultural, intellectual and social foundations that we still use today. Meanwhile your jewish religion christianity buried whole of europe in darkness until the renaissance which was deeply influenced by ideas and works from ancient pagan cultures particularly from greece and rome.pagan cultures contributed significantly to the development of philosophy,medicine,law, governance, architecture, and art, which have influenced modern western civilization.
Plus not every pagan culture worshiped multiple gods but having multiple gods or respecting nature are far better than worshiping that one guy in ur head who was a jew *splash*

Basically you're the average Godless Irish person in that result, looping back around to my post just above, give it a 70%-80% like for bhudda, hindu and Islam. Some reason western eu nations assume these organised religions are nicer or something
