I'm wondering, anyone ok with me doing a guest post about Kaiserreich in the future?

That said, as a heads up that since I'm planning to do the Kaiserreich guest post...if you really hate the Internationale or Socialism in general, or view Totalism as the inevitable endpoint of the internationale, or you get your news from Dennis Prager, you're not gonna like my submission. My submission has taken into account some complaints that some of my friends have made about the mod that I find legitimate after doing my own research on why they are upset and so I will act accordingly.
Wrong thread.
 
Pharrell just allowed an underage girl to release an album called Bondage; people on the ATL internet must be begging Chris Hansen to pay him a visit, for sure.

I thought M.S. was a bit older by this point (it was intended to be her "I'm an adult now and I can do whatever" album). I probably should change it and save that title for her next album.

I seem to recall that she was like 13 when she debuted, I don't know how much time has passed since then - by now, she might be 15 or 16, more or less as old as Bieber when he debuted; given the rather volatile state of her mind, however, it wouldn't be very out of character for her to do weird shit for the lulz. I just think that by this point Pharrell is probably begging her to go see a good shrink.

I'm gonna go ahead and change it, I imagine Pharrell probably would put a veto on something like that, at least until M.S. comes of age. Might actually lead to her lashing out more, which means more controversy and more commercial success XD
 
Bonus: pop'n music TwinBeat: TUNE STREET Tracklist
(Guess it's time for this now! Time to get it out of the way.)

pop'n music TwinBeat: TUNE STREET (iTwin; JP release late 2010; US release early 2012)

The 18th game in the series, and the 4th for iTwin. Not too big a release in the US, but nowhere near as subdued as fans were expecting (though supply of game+controller bundles was reduced, as the pop'n US fanbase was mostly diehards at this point). In Japan, this had a tie-in with the then-recent pop'n music 19 fantasia, the first full-HD arcade game in the series, where one would enter their e-AMUSEMENT PASS data into the console game and their progress in the arcades would help them unlock the songlist more easily. Not so in the US version, due to there being no official e-AMUSEMENT service outside of Asia, so the accelerated unlock rate was set to be the default. This actually won it better reviews with players who thought the unlock systems of previous pop'n games were far too grindy. It was, of course, too late to change the Japanese version of pop'n music TwinBeat: fantasia (just about to be released in Japan around the time this game saw shelves in the US), but the US version, if it saw release, would surely have the unlock rate similar to this game.

Notes
*1. Same as always. No genres for licenses, and most licensed songs were cut for the US release, replaced with pop popular in the West.
*2. This licensed song wasn't cut.
*3. Due to not being Sengoku Retsuden anymore, the songlist is almost completely different. Mostly time-shifted songs from OTL pop'n 19 and "less Japanese" songs from OTL pop'n 18, as well as songs from OTL pop'n portable / Utacchi.
*4. Song original to TTL.
*5. This gets to be the theme song of the game, since PON isn't yet the head sound director of the series, so he doesn't get his song as the main theme. Overall, a more relaxed musical backdrop.
*6. Technically a returning song, because it's the remix from pop'n 9 with a different vocal track.
*7. This is actually a non-BEMANI song from CROSSxBEATS in OTL. Assume it's a little different.
*8. Crossover that never happened in OTL.
 
I'm gonna go ahead and change it, I imagine Pharrell probably would put a veto on something like that, at least until M.S. comes of age. Might actually lead to her lashing out more, which means more controversy and more commercial success XD

Flash forward to a Rolling Stone issue a few years in the future...

"...like, the album was going to be called Bondage. Except, Pharrell changed the title only a few days before it came out, telling only a few people about it... you know when he showed up with a huge plaster on his cheek? Some people on the internet thought I'd done it, after I uploaded the "right" album cover on my Okuma page: the truth is, yes, I went at him. Bad."

...and another issue, even later on:

"I met her a few months after she first mentioned me online" says Benz; "I was expecting to meet a demon child, you know, out of a horror movie, but I did not. She was cool, actually, weird, but cool. Sometimes she did something, or said something, that made me scratch my head, and seemed on edge like half the time, but she knew more about music than people who'd been in the industry for years. She reminded me of that Okuma girl, in a way. I told Pharrell that, it's like a light turned on in his head."
 
The 2011-12 NFL Season
Going into the 2011-12 NFL season, the usual suspects in both the AFC and NFC were looking to continue their success. In the AFC, the Indianapolis Colts rose to the top once again on the continued arm strength of Tom Brady and on the heels of an improved defense, helping them achieve the league's best record at 14-2. They were helped out in this endeavor by the struggles of the defending AFC champion Cincinnati Bengals, who were dealing with injuries and a tough schedule, and ended up just missing the playoffs at 10-6. Meanwhile, the Miami Dolphins, led by Drew Brees, had an excellent year, guided to a 12-4 record as Brees finally fulfilled years of promise after some tough breaks. The Dolphins would cruise to the #2 seed and Brees would win the MVP. Meanwhile, the Pittsburgh Steelers benefited from the Bengals' struggles, winning their division by a single game. The Oakland Raiders also had a bounce back year, achieving an 11-5 record as well.

In the NFC, the Chicago Bears remained quite good and were looking to repeat as Super Bowl champions, ultimately gaining the #2 seed. Peyton Manning was starting to show his age, but was undeterred in his excellent play, and guided the Saints to another top seed in the conference. The rising Dallas Cowboys continued to thrive thanks to Tim Tebow, who was becoming one of the league's most popular superstars. Though Tebow was a mediocre passer, his excellent running abilities, complimented by his strong offensive line, guided the Cowboys to a division title. Meanwhile, the San Francisco 49ers had a complete meltdown as Sam Bradford was injured in the second game of the season and the rest of the team couldn't keep up. The 49ers bottomed out with a 1-15 record, and Bradford made it clear that he wanted off the team, despite a promising start to his career just a few years before.

NFL Playoffs 2011-12:

Wildcard Round

(6) New England Patriots over (3) Pittsburgh Steelers, 23 to 10


The New England Patriots hadn't had the best regular season, finishing at 10-6 and barely squeaking into the playoffs on a tiebreaker over the Bengals, but they weren't deterred, and in this, the latest game of their rivalry with the Pittsburgh Steelers, showed why they're still a force to be reckoned with in the AFC. Donovan McNabb made the crucial passes when it counted, but it was the Patriots' tough defense that won the day, stifling Aaron Rodgers and keeping the Steelers focused on the ground game, which struggled as well. In the end, the Patriots prevailed, and would be a tough matchup for the Colts in the divisional round.

(5) Tennessee Titans over (4) Oakland Raiders, 17 to 14

The Titans came into this game with the same record as the Raiders, 11-5, and were looking to show that despite being road warriors, they deserved to be called the better team. The Raiders had been a surprising squad to win the AFC West, which was one of the worst divisions in the NFL, and despite putting up a great fight (and coming back from a 17-0 deficit), they were just outmatched by the Titans and their tough run game.

(3) Dallas Cowboys over (6) Green Bay Packers, 35 to 21

Tebowmania continued as the Dallas Cowboys rolled over the Packers in this Texas duel. The Packers kept up with the Cowboys at first, making it 14-14 at halftime, but the Cowboys' running game, which not only featured Tim Tebow but also Michael Turner, wore down the Packers' defense and helped the Cowboys advance to the divisional round for the second straight year.


(4) St. Louis Rams over (5) Philadelphia Eagles, 20 to 13

The Eagles couldn't get anything going in this tough loss that saw Tim Couch throw a pair of painful interceptions in Rams territory. The Rams offense also committed some errors, but they weren't as costly, and despite not having a better record than the Eagles, they were the better team on this day. After the game, rumors swirled that Tim Couch's time in Philadelphia might be done, having had some great seasons with the team but never quite being able to win the big one.

Divisional Round:

(6) New England Patriots over (1) Indianapolis Colts, 28 to 10

The Colts didn't have any answers for the Patriots' tough defense, and their gameplan really went out the window when Tom Brady went down with a concussion early in the second half, sealing their fate. Donovan McNabb played like his vintage self, with two rushing touchdowns and two passing touchdowns in this easy victory that left the hometown Colts fans stunned.

(2) Miami Dolphins over (5) Tennessee Titans, 34 to 14

The rising Titans were no match for Drew Brees and the Dolphins on this day, and were run over in Miami. Brees threw for three touchdowns, and after a quick 14-0 start, the Titans never put up much of a fight, despite a late touchdown in garbage time.

(1) New Orleans Saints over (4) St. Louis Rams, 49 to 0

Pure domination all the way as the Saints crushed the St. Louis Rams. Peyton Manning threw six touchdowns and achieved a perfect passer rating in the playoffs for the third time in his career, while the Rams made error after error all day. The Saints looked as good as anyone heading into the conference championship, but might still need to beat the defending champions to win it all.

(2) Chicago Bears over (3) Dallas Cowboys, 18 to 14

The Dallas Cowboys fought valiantly in this game, but the Bears were just a bit too good, with the running game burning crucial time off the clock in the fourth quarter. Tebow found himself stopped on the ground, so he had to try and make big plays in the air and was inconsistent with two touchdowns and two interceptions, while the Bears got the stops they needed to survive.

Conference Championships:

(2) Miami Dolphins over (6) New England Patriots, 27 to 24

This was one of the better conference championships in recent memory, with both AFC East rivals going back and forth to get the win. The Dolphins started off strong with a quick score, only for the Patriots to hold them scoreless for the rest of the first half en route to a 17-7 lead. The Dolphins roared back to make it 21-17, and after the Patriots scored a touchdown midway through the fourth, the Dolphins tied it up with a field goal with four minutes to go. The Patriots drove down the field again, and nearly made it to field goal range, but the Dolphins managed to get a stop, forcing the Patriots to punt. The Dolphins got the ball back with just over a minute to go, but Brees was able to find his receivers time and time again, marching his team into field goal range, and a successful 48 yard field goal gave them the dramatic win, sending the Dolphins back to the Super Bowl for the first time in many years. They'd have a tough match whoever they faced, but Brees was confident that he could give his team the win.

(1) New Orleans Saints over (2) Chicago Bears, 23 to 16

This game was mostly about Peyton Manning trying to find a way to beat the tough Chicago Bears defense, which forced three turnovers over the course of this hard fought game. The Saints opened up a 13-0 lead before the Bears started to get onto the board, but it wasn't easy for them either, thanks to the Saints' surprisingly stiff defense. The Bears managed to score a touchdown just before the end of the half, but missed the extra point, making it 13 to 6. After that, the two teams traded field goals, before Manning finally managed to score another touchdown with five minutes to go, making it 23-9. The Bears rallied furiously, but were unable to recover an onside kick that would've given them the chance to tie or win, and the Saints were headed to the Super Bowl to face the Dolphins in a showdown between two of the league's best quarterbacks.

Super Bowl XLVI:

New Orleans Saints over Miami Dolphins, 38 to 24

Super Bowl XLVI, held in Indianapolis, would see Peyton Manning and Drew Brees battle it out for the Lombardi Trophy. Manning had triumphed before, while Brees was hoping to get his first Super Bowl win and accomplish something Dan Marino had failed to do. In the end, this game was never really all that close, with the Dolphins mostly unable to stop the Saints' tough offense. The Saints quickly made it 14-0 in the first quarter and never looked back, making it 21-0 before the Dolphins finally got onto the board. The Saints' defense wasn't quite as stiff as it had been before, but were good enough to prevent the Dolphins from ever making a serious comeback, and in the end, the halftime show, featuring Elton John, proved to be the most entertaining part of the night, along with some pretty well received commercials. Peyton Manning triumphed again, winning another Super Bowl MVP trophy, while Drew Brees would head back to Miami without a trophy, hoping he wouldn't become the next Marino in Miami.

2012 NFL Draft-

The 2012 NFL Draft was one of the most anticipated in years, thanks to the three big prizes up for grabs: Andrew Luck, Robert Griffin III, and Ryan Tannehill, all of whom were expected to be all-stars at the highest level. The San Francisco 49ers had the first pick, and took Andrew Luck, making sure to surround him with offensive line talent with their remaining picks, much in the same way the Giants had done with Cam Newton the previous year (and had improved to an 8-8 record). The Philadelphia Eagles traded up, offering a king's ransom to the Jacksonville Jaguars for the second pick. The Jaguars decided to take the Eagles' offer, which included many, many draft picks and a couple of players as well. The Eagles selected RG3 as their quarterback of the future, though they kept Tim Couch on board to help mentor the young QB. Tannehill was selected by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with the third pick, while Matt Kalil went to the Seattle Seahawks with the fourth. Luke Kuechly surprisingly fell to the Bengals at the 20th pick, and they were more than happy to snap him up. The Cleveland Browns, still in the middle of their punishment from the Michael Vick scandal, didn't have a first round pick, but they used their third round pick on Russell Wilson, hoping he could be the franchise QB that would help lead them back to respectability. Meanwhile, the New Orleans Saints selected Brandon Weeden at the tail end of the first round, hoping he'd be able to eventually replace Peyton Manning.
 
Meanwhile, the San Francisco 49ers had a complete meltdown as Sam Bradford was injured in the second game of the season and the rest of the team couldn't keep up. The 49ers bottomed out with a 1-15 record, and Bradford made it clear that he wanted off the team, despite a promising start to his career just a few years before.

So Bradford gets Manning'd on a bad team that reconstructs itself with Luck (based on the picks, the 49ers could trade up for G David DeCastro as a start to help offense). Luck should be getting a better line so that he lasts. As for Bradford....could he work in Green Bay or somewhere with a better supporting cast? It would be a shame if he went down like OTL with all that talent. I wonder how Eli is doing as a Bronco.

Tebow found himself stopped on the ground, so he had to try and make big plays in the air and was inconsistent with two touchdowns and two interceptions, while the Bears got the stops they needed to survive.

Man, "Skeeeeeeeeeeup" Bayless will be insufferable with Tebow playing as what appears to be the ATL Dak Prescott. Yet, I am glad to see Tebow having a slightly better NFL career here.

Super Bowl XLVI:

New Orleans Saints over Miami Dolphins, 38 to 24

Super Bowl XLVI, held in Indianapolis, would see Peyton Manning and Drew Brees battle it out for the Lombardi Trophy. Manning had triumphed before, while Brees was hoping to get his first Super Bowl win and accomplish something Dan Marino had failed to do. In the end, this game was never really all that close, with the Dolphins mostly unable to stop the Saints' tough offense. The Saints quickly made it 14-0 in the first quarter and never looked back, making it 21-0 before the Dolphins finally got onto the board. The Saints' defense wasn't quite as stiff as it had been before, but were good enough to prevent the Dolphins from ever making a serious comeback, and in the end, the halftime show, featuring Elton John, proved to be the most entertaining part of the night, along with some pretty well received commercials. Peyton Manning triumphed again, winning another Super Bowl MVP trophy, while Drew Brees would head back to Miami without a trophy, hoping he wouldn't become the next Marino in Miami.

Manning and my Saints get one more SB under their belt and we have a solid team that will enjoy this victory before the inevitable decline. That said, I could see this actually convincing Benson to pull some efforts for a new stadium (given no Katrina TTL, New Orleans East will look very attractive as well as Algiers and Kenner). They may have settled for a short term of renovations, but here, I could see the demand from Benson and ownership for a new stadium to come up.

The Philadelphia Eagles traded up, offering a king's ransom to the Jacksonville Jaguars for the second pick. The Jaguars decided to take the Eagles' offer, which included many, many draft picks and a couple of players as well. The Eagles selected RG3 as their quarterback of the future, though they kept Tim Couch on board to help mentor the young QB.

If Couch is durable for a few more years, this could help RG3 in the long run in learning more passing and leaving running as more secondary.

The Cleveland Browns, still in the middle of their punishment from the Michael Vick scandal, didn't have a first round pick, but they used their third round pick on Russell Wilson, hoping he could be the franchise QB that would help lead them back to respectability.

And, in "Not trying to draft a utopia" news, this will be sad to see Wilson have his career be wrecked by the "Dirty Clown Browns" unless this team is relocating for a new life.

Meanwhile, the New Orleans Saints selected Brandon Weeden at the tail end of the first round, hoping he'd be able to eventually replace Peyton Manning.

Oof. Well, if Manning is going to be a good teacher, it could help. However, Weeden seems like a stop-gap IMO
 
eeeeeeeeup" Bayless will be insufferable with Tebow playing as what appears to be the ATL Dak Prescott. Yet, I am glad to see Tebow having a slightly better NFL career here.
That is an insult to dak, at least dak can pass for shit, unlike tebow, that is a baseball player wanted the nfl glitter.

And, in "Not trying to draft a utopia" news, this will be sad to see Wilson have his career be wrecked by the "Dirty Clown Browns" unless this team is relocating for a new life.

Wilson have talent enough to survive, if he make playoff would be the hero cleveland need...even if not trully deserves

I thought Cleveland winning the Super Bowl was awesome (if not memetically ASB from a meta standpoint) as an Ohioan myself... until I did a double take and realized on further examination that "Yeah... this sword's double-edged, isn't it?"

Cleveland got the short end of the stick here, that being said trying to cover this up out of pride and self-preservation... yeah, the team (and by extension, the city) got what it deserved. The city's probably better off trading the team out and starting fresh, but what do I know? I'm not a sports buff.
 
Just reposting this question here, since it wasn't answered the last time I asked it.

What happens with these musicians and bands ITTL?
  • Imagine Dragons
  • Coldplay
  • Sigur Ros
  • Mumford and Sons
  • Of Monsters And Men
  • The Lumineers
Also, what happens with the 2006 films Children of Men and Monster House?

Also also, what about OneRepublic?

Coldplay and Mumford and Sons are definitely still around, as are Imagine Dragons (one of their songs will be showing up in the TL soon). I think Of Monsters And Men also still makes it. Sigur Ros and The Lumineers I'm not so sure about. OneRepublic is butterflied for sure.

Children Of Men still exists, Monster House is butterflied.


I said it once before the hiatus, and I’ll say it again: if Nathan Benz is not in TTL’s version of Hamilton, I’m going to be very mad. He’s already established to have worked with Lin, and while I know it means we have to butterfly the casting of some other great actor, it’s a sacrifice that must be made.

He and Lin will be working together on a project fairly soon. I'm still not quite sure if Hamilton gets butterflied or not, we'll see.

I'm wondering, anyone ok with me doing a guest post about Kaiserreich in the future?

That said, as a heads up that since I'm planning to do the Kaiserreich guest post...if you really hate the Internationale or Socialism in general, or view Totalism as the inevitable endpoint of the internationale, or you get your news from Dennis Prager, you're not gonna like my submission. My submission has taken into account some complaints that some of my friends have made about the mod that I find legitimate after doing my own research on why they are upset and so I will act accordingly.

Hmm... I THINK it'd be okay, I'm not quite sure what the butterflies have done to Paradox at this point. I'm fairly sure they're still around and probably doing slightly better than IOTL (since more of their games have made it to console, albeit with fairly low sales). So I think Kaiserreich could still exist in some form. I'd keep everything posted limited to PC though, I don't think anything having to do with Hearts Of Iron would make it to console.

So Bradford gets Manning'd on a bad team that reconstructs itself with Luck (based on the picks, the 49ers could trade up for G David DeCastro as a start to help offense). Luck should be getting a better line so that he lasts. As for Bradford....could he work in Green Bay or somewhere with a better supporting cast? It would be a shame if he went down like OTL with all that talent. I wonder how Eli is doing as a Bronco.

I think Sam Bradford will end up somewhere else at some point. Might need to take another season off though.

Manning and my Saints get one more SB under their belt and we have a solid team that will enjoy this victory before the inevitable decline. That said, I could see this actually convincing Benson to pull some efforts for a new stadium (given no Katrina TTL, New Orleans East will look very attractive as well as Algiers and Kenner). They may have settled for a short term of renovations, but here, I could see the demand from Benson and ownership for a new stadium to come up.

A replacement for the iconic Superdome? It's certainly possible, might be tough on a sentimental level but I think it'll get done by the end of the decade.
 
I'm still not quite sure if Hamilton gets butterflied or not, we'll see
Lin came up with the idea because he needed a book to read on a long flight, taking a vacation from his show In The Heights, so if you butterfly one, you butterfly the other. And if not, he had the first song fully written by 2009. So it’s a pretty fine line being walked upon already.

maybe under different circumstance for whatever reason, he finds a book on another historical figure
