I posted this in pre-1900 but I figured I ought to give this a shot, too.

I said I was considering a Jefferson in '96 TL which would do a few of the things I liked about our SHWI-ISOT game as well, most notably keeping the attack on Copenhagen from happening by putting Denmark-Norway int he Coalition.

I've got 32 pages in 10 parts, and went over them some, but lately several things have come up that tell me I won't have time to even look at it for the foreseeable future, like a month or two. Not only that, but I did all I knew I wanted to do anyway, and I'm not even sure if Napoleon should be beaten before or after he invades Russia, so you can change some things about the European theater. I know more of what I had in mind for the U.S. as this arose from how I answered a challenge about ending slavery by 1836 in the U.S..

With the way my mind works, I'd really like to be free of thinking about this, and devote my time to some other things. If someone takes over from here, even edits some things if they think it's needed (as long as the main thrust, election winners, etc. are kept) they can keep that first post as an OOC comment from me and then do the rest themselves.

They can even make it a lot more detailed than I can if they want. And take it later and use people who weren't born in OTL if you like.

I did pretty well on it, though, I think - as I say, 32 pages for 10 parts isn't too bad. I only ask that whoever takes this at least follow that above plan, eliminate slavery and let there be real democracy, be it Jacksonian, Crockettan, or from someone else. As for Europe, just keep Denmark-Norway as one, at least till Norway would become independent decades later if you desire.

Thanks. Just reply to this if you'd like to try, and I'll PM it to you.
