====== Goldilocks ======

The faction known as the **Goldilocks** arose from the [[resources:universal_colour_scheme#alternatives_to_and_controversies_about_the_ucs|UCS Reform]]. [[offtopic:Thande]] proposed that [[offtopic:Russia]] should be colored green instead of gold because the Russian traditional uniform color is green, like the French blue and German gray (although [[offtopic:Susano]] will complain that's only in [[pods:WWI]]). Supporters of Russia's color reform began using Soviet propaganda, labeling themselves "Greensheviks" opposed to the "reactionary" [[offtopic:Goldilocks]] faction that favored Russia's old color. The Goldilocks faction, being the captain ersatzes of Tsarist forces, would have none of that. 

And thus, the shadow of [[AH.com conflicts|the third civil war in AH.com's history]], the [[resources:Map Colour Schemes|Colour Scheme War]], loomed ominously over AH.com... but then everyone quickly reached a consensus and the civil war was narrowly and very anticlimactically averted. To the joy of all involved. Until the [[the pony wars|next civil war]]...

==== History ====

[[http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=168052|A well-meaning poll]] [[the colour scheme war|turned into civil war]] ([[offtopic:Blaming Thande|of course, it was Thande's poll]]), which pit brother against brother, comrade against comrade. Every day the two would be nearly tied, though Gold would usually be a few ahead. The community was torn asunder for five long days. Thinking they would lose the vote, some more radical Greensheviks went off with Susano (who didn't even use the UCS but was interested in German color reform) to form the ACS, while the Girondin Greensheviks praised "reform, not revolution." But to everyone's surprise, Green prevailed 183-181. The Girondin Greensheviks then tried to finish UCS reform, which had been damaged by the ACS faction, and repair their image, which had been sullied by excessive gloating of their victory. Many old ACSites adopted their more radical proposals.
