The man who invented Forum Risk was a person on the Minecraft forums, ottoguy2. I wish to apologize to him because I never gave him credit for inventing Forum Risk in my Forum Risk of Northwest Europe. When Forum Risk was becoming widespread on the Minecraft forums, I found Forum Risk, and told myself, "Hey, this looks fun, why not put it on BuildandShoot?" So Forum Risk: Northwest Europe was born here. Eventually, when Northwest Europe was dying, Venator sent me a PM asking if he could make his own. I told him "Sure," and Venator's Forum Risk V2 was born. Northwest Europe ended in a forced peace treaty between UK & Denmark-Norway, and Spanish Netherlands annexed into the UK. V2 ended when the German Reich, Scotland, and New Russia fused their empires. Currently, V3 is being hosted by Venator, and V4, a collaboration between me & Venator is in the works.
forum risk is such a good idea that I'm supposed it haven't happened earlier.
Anyway, here is link to "The very first forum risk ever" without the annoying yellow highlighted text: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/159 ... game-over/
No but, anyone could claim that they were, say, color yellow. It would just be a big mess.
The other organized stuff doesn't require them to identify themselves.
