Sega always was Popular in Europe Before Sony capitalize on Sega mistakes...i think like OTL Sega might be popular in western Europe(sans France) and part of eastern one, Poland might be more into Sega Orbit but still Being more to PC(there a reason why CD projeck is polish) so Xbox Might have been popular for a while

I've got a question while I'm at it.
OTL Seganet was an internet service provider. It was geared towards playing Dreamcast games, yes, but you could access the rest of the internet with it as well.
Is this the case ITTL? Or is it just like Xbox Live instead? It'd be cool if we all of a sudden heard Sega (the toy company) owns an ISP the size of CenturyLink in the background.

The reason for Sega's hold was great initial success followed by the Master System and Mega Drive being cheap(six years ago one could buy Master System with 132 games for like $50 without sales or any discount), so parents remembering their own bought it to the point even as the Playstation 4 and Xbox One were to be launched they were still selling a hundred fifty thousand every year.
Best move would be Apple not touching Tectoy(the company selling them) and let them work as they will but that's not really how Apple works, it is all about pushing 'new' things by claiming the 'old' is 'obsolete' and I am skeptical of their success given Brazil's reality at the time so expect their hold is far weaker if it exists at all.
That would be cool, but I don't recall SEGANET being an ISP IOTL...in fact I recall it being "Powered by EarthLink".
It would be coo, if EarthLink, Juno, NetZero, and other ISPs stuck around ITTL though....keep the marketplace competitive.
With Steve Jobs' death butterflied I could definitely see him trying to make Apple branch out into ISP.
I know this is still on hiatus, but did the Australian Cronulla riots happen? Or something similar?
I imagine the higher death toll of 9/11 plus 11/20 in Pakistan will probably lead to the same chain of events..
If there was an incident, I would be happy to respond to it considering I am Australian myself....

Something similar happened in spring 2006, resulting in the death of a 12 year old Japanese tourist girl which caused a minor international incident between Australia and Japan. It blew over fairly quickly though.
A quick update on the timeline. First, I do want to apologize, I've been following the massive back and forth pitching of Doctor Who material in my PMs and I need to set aside some time to check all of that out. I'll try to do so before going back to the timeline.
Right after going on hiatus, I got a major promotion at work, which has put a lot more stuff on my plate including at least one business trip. I'm hoping to return to the timeline at some point soon, though I won't set an exact date (I have a date in mind but I don't want people coming in here thinking they're getting the timeline at a certain time, so I'm deliberately being vague
) I'm hoping my new job won't put too much stress on the timeline and that I can return to my normal updates when I choose to do so. I'm still closely following every post and PM, so no worries on that front!
Hey, congrats on the promotion!Something similar happened in spring 2006, resulting in the death of a 12 year old Japanese tourist girl which caused a minor international incident between Australia and Japan. It blew over fairly quickly though.

Thanks! It's definitely more difficult but I am making more money now, so that's nice.
I just found out a sad bit of news that is actually relevant TTL to some degree...

Jodi Forrest, the voice of Jade from Beyond Good And Evil in both OTL and TTL, recently passed away. Obviously since Beyond Good And Evil is much more successful ITTL (Jade's in Super Smash Bros. for goodness sake), she'd be a bigger name and I think ITTL she passes away in similar fashion to IOTL, around 2017 or 2018. Unlike IOTL, where she passed away late last year and we're only just now finding out about it, I imagine ITTL it would be front page news on most of the major gaming sites the day it happened or at least the week it happened.
Congrats man. No clue what you do but if you put the same effort there you did for TTL you earned it.
I think I will probably do something about the alternate Cronulla in the future, considering it implies it played out in a very paralell fashion (something happened on a beach, a lot of hubbub, shock jocks going mad, then big rally then everyone going into crazy mode, then retaliation etc) but with more chaos, a death and a diplomatic spat between Canberra and Tokyo.
Pre pod and PC based, is safe any Major butterflies so might have played as otl
Here's a bit of an oddball question, but does Lady Kier still sue Sega over her likeness being used for Ulala in Spice World like she did in OTL?
That did happened? WTH? i knew america is litigation happy but c'mon.
