I did, thanks a lot smile.gif I'm sorry if I couldn't get back to you, but the seemingly relaxed week went sour and I only finished patching out things yesterday. dead.gif

The mail was forwarded to FG's writer, who's integrating it with his proposal. I'd say he's doing a very good job with it, but if I did, some would say I'm getting a little soft. nyahnyah.gif

You soft? I don't think so. But we still like you JongWK! wink.gif
JongWK
Ah, praises at last smile.gif

(By the way, your certified credstick is on the way) wink.gif

@ LASBers:
Guys, did you get the transcript? I'll try to edit it as soon as I get back from work.

@ Pistons:
Gracias totales, you know why. I forgot to say it yesterday. notworthy.gif

@ Moosegod:
Did you get the files?


As usual, anyone interested in joining can PM or mail me.
Pistons
No problem. I figure if someone's serious about writing, then it's in everyone's best interests to see that the whole process is less of a headache than it could be.
moosegod
No, I did not.

That may be due to my e-mail becoming inactive.

I'll PM you my current account.
JongWK
Craptacular, I'll see what I can do.
moosegod
Recieved and understood, command.

In light of my new found interest for Metropole, I'd like to know if anyone is already writting stuff for that city. If not, I'd volunteer for it, but if someone has already some ideas going, I'd like to trade notes.
JongWK
Backgammon, mail me or find me through Yahoo's IM (ID: kimgoyret). talker.gif

I was wondering if u are thinking of doing a section an Puerto Rico and possibly Cuba.
Dax
Puerto Rico and Cuba are part of the Caribbean Leauge and covered in Cyberpirates.
JongWK
We're aiming for Amazonia, Argentina, Aztlan, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guyana, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela (Caracas).

According to page 79 in Sprawl survival guide most of south america have come under Amazonias control - only Peru, Chile, Argentina are left. (French Guyana is also a fact due to its presence in "Wake of the Comet" adventure).

Quote page 79 Sprawl survival guide:
"Aztlan brought Central America under its heel and Amazonia has done the same with much of South America. The independent states that remain - like Peru, Chile and Argentina - are the frail, surviving vestiges of the Latin American culture that once flourished in the region".

"Despite national borders becoming militarized zones separating Aztlan from Amazonia (and also Amazonia from Argentina in the south and Peru in the west".

In your Shadows of Latin America project has this been completly ignored? It doesn't seem to be that many independant nations left in South America in the Sixth world, due to Amazonia's growth.....

Aztlan puts Caracas (Venezuela's capital) as all that remains of former Venezuela. Underworld gives you Bogota as the remnants of free Colombia. Both references pop up without giving details, but they are canon.

Ecuador is mentioned in Year of the Comet. Paraguay's fate is unknown. Uruguay is mentioned in SotA:2064.

So, to be brief, that bunch of countries are very small fish compared to Amazonia and Aztlan, especially if both of them swallowed most of Colombia, Venezuela, Suriname, Guyana (not the French one) and Central America.

Hope that helps. smile.gif

Thank you very much, all the best with this very interesting project.

Well, Aztlan was the first to note that Bogota is a divided city with half being in Aztlan and the ohter half being "free" or Amazonian.
