Where is my thread on retconning population figures?

It's gone.

Whats up?
It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. By the juice of the brew my thoughts aquire speed, my mind becomes strained, the strain becomes a warning. It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion.

The thread in question is under review by the Moderators.

Interesting, you not allowed to suggest a background fix anymore?

I'm thinking Rule 4 (which was starting to kick in), Rule 13, and maybe the Fan Design guidelines.

Well Rule 13 is a way of saying 'we are relocating Catalyst to the CapCon'.  Have a nice day.

Rule 4?  10k mechs cannot hold a planet is political and based roughly on real world, but its a level of 'politics' which covers basic military/political/security realities.  If that somehow crossed the lines you might as well shut down the forums, as any and all canon factional politics has echoes of real life politics, somewhere.

The topic is not the reason. I cannot say more.

There's IP issues involved, I believe

They'll have a discussion and figure it out and get back to us. The goal is to have fun without being too contentious. It's easy, however, when 'real life' examples get tossed around, for things to quickly degenerate.
