Bleh. I hate the internet's obsession with samurai-era Japan. Ah well, I'm sure you guys can make it interesting. As a side note, as exciting as war is, can we maybe get some Extra History on something like art? I think you could talk a lot about how the French art world transformed with the birth of the Academy and then Impressionism. It's also a period that's very relevant to the games industry, I think.

While I voted for Alexander the Great over Sengoku Jidai, I was very much split between the two, so I'd have been happy seeing either win. Out of curiosity, if Alexander the Great, the suggested topic, doesn't win, will he stick around in the topics to vote on?

2014-09-11 08:46:11 +0000 UTCI'm happy with the survey results so far. Personally, I hope to see topics that move away from Western oriented (pardon the pun) themes to other topics, that don't already have a huge wealth of resources available.

2014-09-11 05:58:54 +0000 UTCYes, we are going to finish the current WWI mini-series before starting the new one, but as Brian said, we're only covering the causes of WWI in this particular mini-series. As for what happened during the war... that'd be a topic fo a different, future mini-series. :)

2014-09-11 02:09:09 +0000 UTCAwesome! I actually really like all those topics. (Advice: If French Revolution wins, I would end it in 1795, when things cooled down considerably; also, whenever Haiti came up, I'd be very brief and just say "But that's a really deserves to be its own topic".)

2014-09-11 01:53:59 +0000 UTCIs the WWI stuff going to be done before we move on to the next topic?
