Usually the natural progression in peoples' relationship with me is to go from absolute hate to love over time, just ask DS.

In any case, is it possible for you to copy/paste into a translator? My character doesn't like yours, its true. And in terms of being afraid of replying in a dumb way, that's a legitimate concern. If we were playing this game in Dutch I would sound like an idiot all the time lol. I still think its worth sticking around. Think how much better you'll be in 6 months if you keep playing on a daily basis? If you're not having fun doing what you're doing currently in game you can always try something else

Wait what, I always loved you Ponti

[Okmin]

Actually, it was Servius Serollus Castus that said Tuccius was incapable of proper leadership

Contrary to popular belief, Agricola has been out of Rome for almost 8 years doing Proconsulships. I think people are oft confusing Agricola's personality/ and opinions of people for my auxes. Brutus, and Servius are not Quintus Agricola, and are very different people. They take a hardline stance in the Curia against corruption, and power, whereas Quintus prefers to serve Rome outside of the Curia.

Think of him as a Ned Stark of the Republic. He would rather run a proconsulship, and serve his country, than to be stuck in a rats nest of a Curia squabbling over who controls what power in Rome. He's not the vile, crazy, hostile senator you all believe he is lol. It's Brutus, and Servius who argue in the Curia, not Quintus

I'm really terrible at keeping track of auxes.

[Sonke]

You're not the only one

[Rhapture]

unless you aux is in your sig, then its really hard to know.

I'm sorry for my recent unavoidable inactivity, and the inconveniences it might have caused in the process. I will get back to role-playing tomorrow. And I know the mods must be dying to know where I spended my points so i will post them here.

Points

Points

Patrician points: 3
Plebeian points: 3
Legion loyalty points:0

Hope I didn't delay the role-playing part of the game too much.

[Pontifex Maximus]

Just in time, actually

[Scipio Africanus]

Sevvy, do you like my well constructed letters to the senate?

I need to find a good ink press, like Octavian used in the Rome series to send a dispatch!

Then it will be foolproof!

[Pontifex Maximus]

Did you just call me Sevvy?



And yes I do, it reminds me of YATS. And anything that reminds me of YATS can potentially make the ice around my heart melt for several seconds, enabling me to feel human emotion for precious moments.

[Scipio Africanus]

Yeah, I called you Sevvy. I think it's a good nickname, don't you?

[Pontifex Maximus]

Well it beats Ponti

[Scipio Africanus]

Sevvy it is!

[tyboman]

When I first saw that, I thought it read seWy, and I wondered what sewing had anything to do with what was being talked about, and if I had missed a comment he had made about stitching fabric with a needle and thread.

[Lucius Malfoy]

Ugh...been gone too long and been inactive too much this past weekend to understand what is going on.

First: It is law now for Proconsulars to send surplus grain to Rome correct?
Second: @Rhapture: where should I post a response to you from your IC letter?
and Third: Proconsuls can use income from their Proconsulates to do constructions correct?

GuildWars 2 and managing a guild has been keeping me pre-occupied as well as college.

[Scipio Africanus]

First: It is law now for Proconsulars to send surplus grain to Rome correct?

Yes. The law stipulates all excesses in Iberia, and Gaul are to go to Rome.
The problem is you sent grain to Greece, so that's an issue brought up by Sevvy's char in the Curia. You should try and defend your Proconsul char in the Curia to avoid prosecution next term lol.

Third: Proconsuls can use income from their Proconsulates to do constructions correct?

Yes. We're supposed to spend all our Tax revenue for the year on upgrades. All provinces must be Tier 1 atleast, the rest is at Proconsul discretion, roads, tier 2, etc. But all must be spent by the end of the year.

[Rhapture]

LM: You can send a reply to my house

SA: The law does not stipulate that excess grain from spain goto Rome.

[Scipio Africanus]

True true

Noticed some road constructions in Cis-Alpine Gaul. People: Cis-Alpine Gaul HAS ROADS. All provinces of that area do. That goes for Nabonesis as well. I built them long ago.

Could you link to the threads with that info where you built them? Somehow this info got lost in the shuffle
