As Merk repeatedly made some mistakes in the orders I suggest making subforums, in which the people can make their orders (one for each side). That will also help for the problem with the full PM folders. Adler |

This was suggested and rejected in the past, for being impractical. Orders are posted in staff forums anyway. I suggest that you simple make your orders strcutred, and request corection of mistakes. |

@Germany, good idea. I can understand your concern since the admin had made stuff ups in the past... Besides, if the orders were done right the first time it will save a lot of time arguing and correcting and whatnot... |

true, but it also opens up a whole new problem: 1. The admin still has to interpret and implement it, so it wouldnt be that much different from now- If Ive understood this correctly, they are posted in the staff forum anyway. 2. The number of boards needed- at least two for each conflict that occurs, possibly more. Consider it- one nation, despite being on the same side, might have confluicting interests, and would need a whole board of its own... Its a good idea yes, but I would suggest there must be ways of better implementing the current system ibnstead of changing it. For example, I know for a fact that Merk has gotten my orders wrong before now, despite the comprehensive nature of those (ask him, they go on for pages and pages, and each word tends to be important :P). As a result he has quite often got something wrong- HOWEVER, ive lived with it. Consider it like this: orders on the real battlefields are almost always misinterpreted, or interpreted to fit a situation/make sense/etc. Thus, this is really much the same. Moreover, if the orders coming out are actually wrong then maybe one should consider making sure that the meaning is just a little clearer. Yes, Im all for a way of sorting it out to work better, but i dont think additional boards are the answer. |

My mistakes are little teeny tiny farts that in all reality have made ZERO impact on the actual tide of anything. Adler, I'm sorry if I don't have time to subtract numbers from your squads, refill them with your reserves, and then subtract them from your reserves. That's up to you to decide how those numbers are supposed to be filled, and it's up to you to keep track of your casualties. I'm presently dealing with my own war, I'm dealing with a dozen orders from a dozen different nations on what amounts to a daily basis. On top of which, these orders change and vary, change and vary through the day. I've had an enormous research project to do. I've had finals, other tests, and homework. Oh yeah, and then I have a 30 hour a week job. I'm sorry if I don't have the time to spend HOURS working on this shit to make sure that every single minor and minute detail is noted in every freakin stinkin battle order that gets sent my way. I said when I asked for spreadsheets that you guys UPDATE YOUR SPREADSHEETS and send me those. You don't do that. But then you complain when I don't refill your squads from your reserves which matters nothing at all in the grand scheme of things. This is YOUR WAR. It's not my war. And I'm sorry if you actually think I'm going to sift through pages of text and get absolutely positively everything right. |

Like I said- it is desirable that the time was there for the people running it, but I have figured so far that as long as the general gist is right it shouldn't be a problem. Merk, youre numbers are still off though, despite the spreadsheet work I've done xD Seriously though, unless its actually wrong I think everyone should just live with it. |
