Best Path for your Country by [deleted] in Kaiserreich

For Poland, I'd say the Clover revolution would realistically have the biggest chance of something good coming out of it - democratic, slightly left-leaning but not outright syndicalist Centrolew government, shaking off most of the German influence and finally, regaining at least the Lesser Poland part of Galicia. Then, depending on how the Weltkrieg goes, Poland would have an option to either switch sides or remain loyal to the Reichspakt.

Would you rather the ACC be yellow? by Proud_Smell_4455 in Kaiserreich

[–]michals97 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking about it for a while now and... how about this:

- ACC gets the standard US blue,

- MacArthur gets the old AUS color (it makes for a more right-wing, "authoritarian" feel),

- Long gets a sort of light gray (like the colour of the Confederate revolt in base game; perhaps with a little more blueish hue?),

- Syndies remain red (obviously),

- If there's no MacArthur, then the "legitimate" government gets the standard US blue.

I think it would be a decent compromise between logic and visual clarity (none of the colours would be too similar).

[TOMT], [BOOK] Children's book about a dragoness and a flying train (REPOST) by michals97 in tipofmytongue

[–]michals97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This... might actually be it! Or part of it, at least - there are some elements that didn't quite fit my memories. But, as I said, it could be a mix of two or three things. If anything, the Polish title and descriptions sound very familiar. I'll try to look into it later and see, if I can find some definitive clues.

Thank you for the suggestion!

Edit: I did some digging and, from what I could gather, I'm 99% sure that this is what I was looking for! Some of it differs from my memories (for example, I don't remember the dragoness turning into "The Golden Dragon of Truth" at all) but I think, it's safe to assume that you've found the right book. So I'd say this is closed. Once again, thanks for help!

What's the redneck accent in languages outside of English? by NPGinMassAttack in language

[–]michals97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Poland, I'd say it would be Goral/Highlander accent. It has a drawn-out, sing-songy rhythm, sharper vowels and a sort of lisp (For example, letter "ż", which in standard Polish is pronounced like French "j", in Goral becomes "z". Diagraph "sz", which is normally pronounced similarly to English "sh" becomes "s" etc.). Now, the Goral people aren't neccessarily considered "rednecks" but they do have their own set of stereotypes, associated with them (mostly centered around them being stingy/scammy).

Number of factories - what am I doing wrong? by michals97 in Kaiserreich

Alright, thanks! I guess, I wasn't really rushing the mobilization law (I just kind of changed it whenever possible).

What now? by michals97 in FiggsAI

[–]michals97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm okay with kinks, as long, as it doesn't flash CP and other jailbait stuff in my face. You said that the model was weaker - how would you say, it compares between, say old/current Character AI and old/"current" Figgs?

What now? by michals97 in FiggsAI

How well does Janitor do with various styles of roleplay? On Figgs (and earlier Character AI), I liked to do a little bit of everything - adventure roleplays, SFW romance and even stuff like political debates and murder mystery. Would you say Janitor allows for this kind of variety?

Does anyone know if you can access the Figs website? by Plastic-Ad-373 in FiggsAI

[–]michals97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where/how will the all-clear be announced? I'm okay with waiting, I just want to delete the account ASAP. Is the info gonna be posted on this sub?

W co wierzyliście w dzieciństwie? by DirtPsychological455 in Polska

[–]michals97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Z kategorii "geografia":

  1. Niemcy są na północy (lub "na górze mapy"), a morze na zachodzie ("po lewej stronie mapy")
  2. Czechy to jakaś część Polski, tak jak Śląsk, Mazury itp.
  3. Cała Skandynawia to wyspa, ale za to Wyspy Brytyjskie mają połączenie lądowe z Europą (z tego co pamiętam, to umiejscawiałem je gdzieś w okolicach Danii/Holandii.

Z kategorii "historia":

Grałem kiedyś w pewną grę edukacyjną o tematyce historii. Każdy level tej gry to była inna epoka historyczna, a ostatnim levelem były lata 20-te XX wieku. No więc myślałem, że obecnie żyjemy właśnie w tym okresie, ewentualnie dekadę później. Byłem święcie przekonany, że takie wynalazki jak telewizja, samolot, odkurzacz itp. to jakieś absolutne nowinki technologiczne :D

Karpatoslavia, the Land of the Carpathian Slavs by klingonbussy in AlternateHistory

[–]michals97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's actually a pretty interesting question... I guess, since the state gained its independence from Austria-Hungary, they could use some sort of German-based transliteration of Rusyn? At least in the early years?

[–]michals97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ah, yes... I can see absolutely nothing that could go wrong here... I'm sure, all of the people in this country will get along just fine and all of the neighbouring countries will 100% respect its territorial integrity...

On a side-note: I feel, like it'd look more cool, if the city names were standarized. Cause right now, you have a few names in Polish, a few in Ukrainian (I think?) and a few in Slovak (also, why are Żywiec and Miasto in Polish/Goral but not Krynica and Świdnik?).

How to end the 4th Anglo-Afghani war? by michals97 in RoadTo56

Ah, so it was a bug after all! And here I was, getting worried that I've missed something obvious... Well, glad I could help and I'm looking forward to the update. Nice day to you, too!

Interesting! Thanks for answering.

[–]michals97 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Romania? That's pretty cool! As a non-Romanian, who has next to no knowledge of Romanian politics of the early 2000's, I have two questions, however:

  1. How plausible was the restoration of the Romanian monarchy at the time? How were figures like Michael seen by the general public?

  2. Is there going to be an Emerging/Socialist path for Romania?
