I'm fully supportive of such a collaboration - would help resolve the manpower shortages afflicting all three sub-forums. Hope things can be established soon, there's much potential!

Good lord, that makes me feel very old indeed :P I was indeed in that game, playing as a mega-Sicilian empire, if I recall correctly. Indeed, the Alliance section, and its own frequent inactivity,...
Not quite - the problem with a creating an fourm all to IH's self is that we're never going to get fresh meat. I would suggest relocating to another popular gaming/history forum (e.g. Paradox), where...
At the castigation of Fry, I return! Probably not for very long though, as Uni (I'm off to Oxford to study History) begins in just over a month. I'll do what I can to help revive things here while I...
1 - Persia
2 - Anatolia
3 - Syria
Rather tentative, as I still don't have a character in mind, but will hopefully come up with something soon.
The Administration of President Charles Lamberth

Hey all. Exams not fully completed, still got one on the 17th, but the important ones concluded. Will catch up on what's happened and finish up the Lamberths, although I'm still not likely to be...
I'll draw up a brief outline of the Lamberth family just to help you out. Naturally when I come back in June, this shall be properly fleshed out:
Edward Charles Lamberth (1742-1810)

James...
Ah great, that may be useful for some of my democrat Lamberths. My general intentions were for the family to become increasingly divided, between moderate pro-slavery elements maintaining Edward's...
That could work. I can definitely see Lamberth I as a major figure in the Society, in addition to other, Jefferson-esque post-presidential projects, before dying in the 1810s or so.
The general...
There's no mention of it in the timeline, but has the colonisation of Liberia precoded as OTL? I always had in mind the Lamberths continually pushing for 'repatriation' over the decades, possibly...
Hey chaps, sorry for my inactivity recently. Will probably not be able to frequent these fourms much until the end of June, due to exams. Nonetheless, I would be eager to stake a claim for the...
Eh I'm somewhat hesitant with this time-skip, if only because I'm not sure which camp to through my successor, James Lamberth, into :p I had in mind a pro-slavery, nativist bigot who nonetheless...
Lamberth nodded, pausing for thought.
'I see the validity in trialling those rebels who fought at Legionville, alongside the senior leaders and lieutenants of this rebellion. Let those men go...
'Good afternoon, your Excellency.' replied Lamberth. The Vice-President sat opposite President Poole, the desk dividing them. Peering over the paperwork, Lamberth was glad that Poole had so quickly...
Vice-President Lamberth arrived at the Presidential Offices in Philadelphia, eager to speak to the President. Of particular concern was the fate of the Whiskey rebels, alongside America's relations...
As Vice-President, I think I'm beginning to sympathise with Adams' famous quote - 'My country has in its wisdom contrived for me the most insignificant office that ever the invention of man contrived...
In one of his first political writings, the young son of Edward Charles Lamberth, James Lamberth, a recent graduate of the College of William and Mary in Willamsburg, pens his own contribution to the...
I would think that Congress just wouldn't bother with a Maroon Territory. But the time the issue is broached, they would be dispersed across the Northwest, and I doubt anyone would really be willing...

Name: Edward Charles Lamberth...
Indeed - or alternatively, if it were called Columbia, there wouldn't be a need for a district appendix.
I don't see much of a problem with that. Columbia is certainly the most plausible, as a poetical name for the Country, so I'll definitely vote for it.
I think the alternative name they were considering OTL was Columbia, and I would go for that instead, despite South Carolina.
I think the majority have gone with Kip for GW, so I'll withdraw from the hypothetical presidential running and focus on Adams.
Also, my other votes:
AH: E. Massie
TJ: J. Eggers
PH: H. Wallace
Oh yeah? Well two can play at that game! :P

Yeah I can see where you are coming from - certainly I see Lamberth as the 'venerable elder statesman' of Congress. Perhaps best put him on the tally for GW, then, and let the community decide, while...
I'll be sticking with Lamberth, and go for 1792. I'm not exactly sure what role he could really play. I intended him as a Federalist, but he's proven far too moderate to take Hamilton, unless...
That's not how I remember it - we were just, if not more rebellious, in older iterations of these games. Indeed, WEF 1.0 was a prime culprit of silly feuding and OOC bickering.
Newly-elected President Lamberth rose, clearly enjoying his new authority over the Congress.
'Let the matter of relocation be placed immediately to vote, for haste is greatly required.'
Lamberth almost tripped over his bench as he rose in eager haste to pitch his self-nomination.
'Honoured Congressman, I would gladly put myself forward, once more, as a candidate on the electoral...
Barry, my Memorandum did specify that Vermont's forces wouldn't be incorporated into any Department. :P
Chaps?
Lamberth stood to reply. While he had been one of General Eggers' most vocal critics, he rather agreed.
'I must concede to the logic of the Honourable Congressman's counter-argument. While Eggers...
Lamberth stood, raising his hand.
'I will gladly second both of the Honourable Congressman from New Hampshire's calls. We must proceed to conclude these matters at once, for we have expunged far...
'I stand behind the proposal of the honourable Congressman from Connecticut - as the liberator of Philadelphia, General Mcintyre clearly stands as the premier candidate for Commander-in-Chief, and...
Lamberth stood, greatly angered by Egger's interference.
'I fully concur with my honourable friend from Virginia - General Eggers, leave this Congress at once. As a military man, you surely...
'In this, at the least, I agree with the Honourable Congressmen. Let us thus put the measured proposal to vote, President Stanford. The Negro dependants shall be divided among the states and West...
'Such mass reparation would not require the bankruptcy of the states of the Federation nor the national government - the stipend shall be modest, only a small fleet of ships would be drafted, and...
'If I may reaffirm my earlier suggestion, Your Excellency, my proposal for the shipment of much of this dependant population to Africa remains on the table, as a viable and preferable solution to...
