Humor (or Humour OR HUMOUROUS depending on your outlook on things) ((and not the bone))Humor is a welcome addition to any Twine, thread, or comment.

RevisitedNo empire is static. Roads have to be maintained. Also make sure you revisit your towns and fix what is lacking. The roads are the links of course.

DepictedEnsure that your twine has an image if possible. And if it does, ensure that it is not cropped badly.

TitledI have done this but don't have anything against it because the correct order is the symbol then. It also makes it easier to find. I have renamed some of my special-character twines for aesthetics reasons though. There's no "law" here, just oppinions - it's a free world :-)Bent Rasmussen added 14 months ago
