MetalHeadz is being a cunt about the whole situation. If 'Britain' represented countries better then you wouldn't have people like Pressure Drop who feel like it doesn't make sense to play for England when he should be playing for Ireland. Ireland might identify with Britain a lot more than The ROTW but if one thing I've learned one thing is that Irish and Scottish people are proud of their independence, and if you so much as insult their independence purposefully or un-purposefully you might as well just avoid that person because they will want nothing to do with you. My father was born in Edinburgh and even after many years of peace between England and Scotland he still says there's a lot of controversy between the two countries, it's mainly trash-talk but these are proud people who were used an abused so of course they deserve the right to be proud of themselves.

Well personally speaking I dont understand why we even bother with northan island and you can take scotland and fuck off. I say bring on independance, then maybe we can have the same benfits down south like free university tuition. Had enough of all these haters on england. If scotland really wanted independance you would have had the balls to vote in the SNP in the last election with a real majority.

Then you would have got your referendum. I've always supported independance if people want it. What i don't support it people who dither or do things half-arsed.

I'm sensing a bias towards Scotland.

History tells us a story of use and abuse, this isn't to be taken personally. Scotland and Ireland have a common dislike towards England, and you can't blame them since England has used them against each other for a long god damn time. England is completly different than how it was, same with America during times of slavery. I think countries like England have matured, and are great example of a strong western nation but it's neighbors see the real history in how this great country came about.

History doesn't tell a straightforward story. A lot of the "abuse" and injustice" was perpetrated by a Scottish monarch. A string of Scottish kings ruled over the entirety of Great Britain in the 1600s http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_I_of_England

Britain was taken over by the Dutch in the 1700s (the last successful invasion of the uk, not 1066, as people say)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glorious_Revolution

The current call for Scottish independence is a relatively recent one. In the early 1900s Scotland was staunchly unionist. The second capital of Britain and the British empire was Glasgow.

i guess i just get angry because people in Scotland moan about the English and how we are "oppressing" them but then don't take the opportunity to do anything about it. If the Scottish people wanted to be independent they could be, but instead they seem keen to reinforce this victim mentality. Arguably the Scottish have been ruling over the English for sizeable periods of history (our current prime minister is Scottish), maybe its we the English who should be upset :P

I'm happy to play alongside any nation in SubSpace. Even the Germans. The UK has lost most of its independance to Brussels (Benelux owning us IRL :fear: )now anyway, theres not much left to fight for.

We respect and recognize Ireland independece and the TEAM UK + IRELAND indicates there are 2 different political units and 5 (4 + 1) different countries united for one purpose: play bwc and have fun. We also had care to name the groups of participants of bwc as "teams" instead of "nations" mainly because we were based on geographic discretions in such a way we could make teams balanced. If Pressure Drop doesnt want to play for UK + IRELAND, we wont deny his wish, he just needs to pm me, dald or flabby and we change him, although, we will not draw back team names unless 100% of irish players ask for it.

I have some knowledge of those relationships, but this is a fucking 2d spaceship game, you are being a complete tool for reacting the way you did over a simple wish of PD. That is what I said.

Alright, so there's a lot of spam in this thread, and I'm not talking about the meat. As I already previously mentioned I turned down the captain spot for Finland because I'm having 16 hour school/work days for at least a good 3 weeks, and thus I won't really have time for subspace...which leads me onto my new question: when is bwc happening? (probably been asked before, but I can't be arsed enough to browse through 16 pages...)
