The proposal is more or less political issue so lets leave it to the politicians.

It doesn't affect 99% of the players here. You see there are only 10 serious players, so if you can get 10 prefers/don't cares and no don't wants, I will pop this into [Submitted] regardless of the result of this poll.

New Caledonia is absolutely irrelevent to the people of China. Frankly, I only know where it is because of my deep fascination for 2.1. Let's keep this on topic betiko, and the topic of this thread is about improving the cc-experience of China-based players.
Has anyone ever wondered why every chinese person I have ever introduced to the site has signed up, had a look around and then promptly left (almost certainly no one here has ever wondered about this)? Might it be because CC appears to be believe it is 1996 and Hong Kong is still a british colony? The CC scoreboard is deeply insensitive towards chinese people on this issue.
So a unified chinese scoreboard would both improve the cc experience for ex-pats living in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan but also make it more likely that some actual, real Chinese players could join us. For currently CC must seem like the UN in the 1960's, as it blatantly insulted the country by refusing to admit that Mao was the rightful leader of China.
why do they use HK dollar there if their status is not "complicated"? Why do they use the taiwan dollar in taipei? why are hong kong and taiwan represented in the olympics and have national teams? they don't want to be part of your "greater china", deal with it, neither on cc. And yes, new caledonia is totally on topic as it gives an example of something similar done on the site.
If some chinese players are stupid enough to leave the site because HK and taiwan are represented on the site I don't really care. Did they stop watching the beijing olympics because HK was represented?

Mr Changsha wrote:Well, I am merely trying to give a little political comtext to my suggestion - as is my right - but remember that this thread is about improving CC!
I think CC would be a (slightly) better place if we had regional/continental scoreboards and I am using the China area as an example of that. Outside of a few large Risk-playing countries, the individual scoreboards are sorry, lonely places.

So my current plan of challenging the leader of the Hong Kong faction to a one-off dubs on the Hong Kong map to determine sovereignty, is not the official, or the correct, way of going about this?

It's not official, but Zhang Fei would approve...

It seems to me (though of course I am at best strange and at worst unhinged) that If I, the leader of the China scoreboard, defeat the leader of the Hong Kong faction on the Hong Kong map, that through the establised convention of spoils, the Hong Kong scoreboard would have to merge with the China scoreboard.
DoomYoshi's belief in the powers of democracy, while without question noble, ignores the cultural sensitivities of east-asian people. Leaders must decide matters between themselves...this is primarily an issue for Chariot of Fire and I, and I trust CC will respect the outcome of this contest.

if you lose, can the chinese scoreboad merge so we could have only hong kong?

If you want to turn this into a suggestion about creating regional scoreboards then stay on that topic. If not then this will be closed.

I would love for this to lead to an amalgamated Asian scoreboard though - that would be something worthwhile - but each country (and Special Administrative Region of course) retains its own standard.
