@Dee Miller haha fair enough I could had said, the usa populace is a collection of peoples that all need to go their own way, but whenever i say something that simple people refute it

@Troy can you add the two companion books to the game to aalbc's list Book1 https://www.am*zon.com/dp/B005LIMMWK Book2 https://www.am*zon.com/dp/B00HRZCGO4

When the secrets of the military combat suit known as WEAPON are exposed to the public, before long they flood the streets and it seems every civilian is using a power suit for crime, chaos or their own selfish ends. To avert the possibility of civil war, General Patricia James, amid dissent from both superiors and subordinates, sponsors a tournament to encourage the "WEAPON-wielders" to compete for fame and fortune, and to inspire the populace. But just as the world begins to embrace the WEAPON as the wave of the future, a dark secret about the origin of the technology emerges, threatening to destroy everything Patricia sought to build. WEAPON Combat League; an action-packed tale in a world of fantastic technology, with stories of action and conflict, of drama and heartbreak, of love and loss, of rivalry, of haves against have-nots, of the balance of power, of the ripple effects of past sins thought buried. Weapons Combat League Book1 https://www.am*zon.com/dp/B005LIMMWK Book2 https://www.am*zon.com/dp/B00HRZCGO4 This project is a prototype ‘battle’ game based on my WEAPON Combat League concept, initially planned as a multimedia project with comics and prose novels. (If you are interested in reading the stories of WEAPON Combat League, you can find links to them here: https://jonathanpriceart.net/products/ ) I do not consider it a ‘fighting’ game because it’s not strictly about martial arts or weapon-based duels (despite the name). This project was meant to mimic the versus modes in classic games such as X-Kaliber 2097, Guardian Heroes and Streets of Rage 2; allowing the core game’s playable characters to duke it out in a versus mode for fun. It’s not a game designed to be in the same genre as a Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat, as that was never my intent. The original design philosophy of the project is "King of Fighters meets Mega Man". More on the Mega Man side. Characters control in platformer style, rather than fighting game style. Some characters have melee attacks, others use projectiles. It has two functioning modes: Team Versus and Team Edit Versus. Both function similarly, but the difference is one focuses on the story’s default team lineups while the other lets players choose their own team members. There is also a database of information about the game and the characters within. However, the versus mode got the lion’s share of my development efforts as I became obsessed with making all the characters ‘feel’ the way I envisioned them. Time passed and I realized that the project’s large number of characters and underdeveloped single player concept made it far too ambitious for me to complete. I realized that I was never going to finish the game under the circumstances, and thus halted development. I’m uploading it here as-is for no required charge, to allow anyone who’s interested to play what I made. Some important notes: There are likely to be glitches as I haven’t balanced or bug-tested all that thoroughly. Much of the art assets are placeholders (such as the arena background and HUD). The game can ONLY be played in two player versus mode. There is no AI single player mode at all. The first player can control with either keyboard or gamepad. Player 2 can only use a second gamepad. However, if one player just wants to mess around, Player 2’s team or characters can be chosen and selected with the Numpad on the keyboard. Inputs can’t be changed, but the controls should be simple enough to understand. The middle segments on the Team Edit screen were for planned characters that were never finished. There is no way to unlock them. Same characters cannot be chosen by either the same player or the opponent. I intend to resurrect WEAPON Combat League with a different approach in the future as I learn new tools for game development. However, this project as it stands is at an end. That said, feedback is fine and welcome, as I'm always eager to learn how to improve my craft. Thanks! url https://dualmask.itch.io/weapon-combat-league-demo

The problem is the question, what do you want the USA to be tomorrow? Rubio doesn't want what Amhayes want. Dee Miller doesn't want what amhayes or Rubio want. Richard doesn't want what Rubio, Amhayes or Dee Miller want. A multiracial blend, the racism based on future of the usa, not phenotype. But when a multiracial gathering of people live under one government, the collision of wants is a natural problem. Cause someone has to not get their way, they have to lose. But more than that, they have to lose with a smile. That is the nonviolent mantra or wish that government agents or various advocates in the usa utter all the time. And why does it fail, because what people , all humans, forget at times is people can be very happy in negative scenarios for other humans. The simple truth is the souhern states in the usa were never as fiscally wealthy or militaristically potent than pre war between the states. And every year after is a reminder of the south that was lost. Am I happy said south was lost? yes 100% but that doesn't mean a white person of said south , living today is. People don't hate change in itself, they hate change when they lose with the change. And the usa has a history of people losing moe with change than they could possibly gain, and this energy is getting stronge rby the day but has been growing since the 1960s.

not at all congrats man!!! will share:)

@ProfD I wish you would had continued reading, I didn't ask you what they should had did, I asked you your opinion of their. Please continue reading my prose. Having opinions about the past isn't trying to rewrite the past. Or maybe you don't have any opinion on anything in the past, which is fine. I know many black people like that, it isn't negative. I am not like that. I have an opinion on everything in the past. And why does said opinion matter, cause many black people in the usa are part of a tribe who don't feel any debt is owed,in any form, to black people from whites or the usa. This post started with Obama and perceptions to him. But for me, the issue is how black people see our populace. The problem is, too many black people in the usa don't have the ability to embrace the internal racial multivides in the black populace in the usa and make their goals with their own tribe

@ProfD So what you are saying is that of the two black initial tribes before the usa was founded: enslaved/free, the free which was less than ten percent of the black populace needed a way, to dismantle white power. question how were the over 90% of blacks who were enslaved going to help or be communicated with, you comprehend they were enslaved to whites yes? And, you are also saying that of the three black initial tribes during the usa's birth: enslaved/free anti usa/free pro usa, again , enslaved was still 90% of the black populace, the two free that were free needed to figure out a way to dismantle white power, but the free pro usa blacks bought into it, so you are saying they were fools? And the free anti usa lost in a war, they fought and lost, war isn't a game, somebody has to lose. But it seems you feel the free anti usa were wrong for opposing the usa while the free pro usa were wrong for joining the usa. I think you will forgive enslaved blacks for being enslaved. am I correct? @Troy What explicitly is the problem, the various tribes in the black populace in the usa with all their varying viewpoints or opinions or goals have not chosen to address? The point I have been making continually is Obama could had did one thing for all black tribes in the usa , which is a straight forward public acknowledgement. I didn't say anything nonverbal: money/supplies/resources/connections these are nonverbal things. Obama didn't do nonverbal things for the black populace in the illinois county he was elected in, it is silly in my mind to think he will do more for a larger black populace in the usa. But, Obama for the black populace in his illinois district or illinois as a senator or the usa as a president could had simply publicly stated black tribes exists and are not compatible, are not unitable, are not unionable. A nonverbal action that doesn't help any black tribe in the usa outside of getting a high profile black person in the usa to admit something that is clearly historical fact but no black leader at any time or clout: mlk jr/malcolm/frederick douglass/marcus garvey/obama/sharpton/fannie lou hamer/shirley chisholm has ever publicly said loudly.

@Troy I explained poorly then. Not for the first time in this community. More experience for me to explain my thoughts better. All I can say now is while any other can derive my meaning to suggest all success is verbal through my own explanation of my meaning to verbal + nonverbal success , to me, to me, to me, verbal success is clearly dissimilar from nonverbal success. @ProfD well...outside the usa i concur to you 100%. I think in brazil/nigeria/india/jamaica/germany/philipines the tribes in the black populaces can work better together, can overcome frictions or dislikes. But the black tribes in the usa are a unique set for me. Black christian chruches made their bed, did many things to hurt other tribes. Black christian churches harmed the black militants like the panthers/opposed to firmly black nationalists like the garveyites or exodusters/betrayed in public the urban black populaces in the big cities. I think many tribes in the black populace in the usa have reason to have large dislikes between them.

@Dee Miller the internet is very large Dee, glad you was able to get something. Please tell more of your experiences with blackoak in aalbc. ... I have only traveled less than one percent of the internet's many places. I know I miss many opportunities cause one can't go everywhere online.

@Troy yes, First what is verbal success, and then nonverbal success, in this multilog. Nonverbal successes are things spoken plus used to regale to a position but absent nonverbal value which have three forms: Laws/speeches/statistics [posters/advertisements/online messages fit one of those three] The 13th amendment didn't prevent hundreds of thousands of black people to be burned by whites/hanged by whites/imprisoned on plantations on whims The civil rights act didn't build up black schools in black towns. All the statistics about Black crime don't aid black illegal operators in paying off law enforcement just like whites. Doesn't aid in black illeglal operators making generational wealth for their clans like white criminals. White asian illegal operators made chinatown and in my opinion have far more heinous acts against asians in modernity than any black illegal operator has to blacks, at least in nyc. Composite Nation from Frederick Douglass or I have a dream from MLK jr didn't bridge white or black people in various work places or in the legal system or the illegal system for that matter. Yes, people are regaled by laws, statistics, speeches, but their value is only verbal. Easy modern examples: the affordable care act[law], black on black crime in nyc[statistic], speeches[anything from obama/kamala harri/hakeem jeffried/sharpton or similar in the last ten years] Nonverbal success I define to be things that do not require anyone to speak, make a statistic, or a law, yet regale to a position. Harlem had the renaissance ballroom, designed by blacks, owned by blacks, used by blacks. The renaissance ballroom was left to rot by blacks. HArlem has a harlem day/harlem week with a lot of posters but the renaissance ballroom was a symbol of harlem absent a need for any of that. Black people recall Tulsa cause it is the last black community in a city bigger than a town in the usa that had a black community which didn't need like the black community in nyc/la/chicago/detroit/new orleans/boston/maryland/san francisco/oakland that need to advertise themselves as the place to be. When I see Black Elephants or Black donkeys or Beta Israelites or Nation of Islam or Black mosque or Black Christian Churches or Black colleges/universities or Black financial magicians they produce no nonverbal success. They have to say what they are doing, say they are great , say other black people are not great because absent saying it they can't show it. Nothing was ever easy for black people in the usa, but black people in the past did make nonverbal successes, so it can and will happen again. And this is unbound to the usa or even the Black populace in the usa. The problem with the various communist governmens was the same lack of nonverbal success. The problem with Mandela's south africa , no nonverbal success. The problem with the UA trying to sell its system through humanity after the victory over the soviet union, no nonverbal success.

hahah @ProfD I told you Exactly, being concerned to your tribe in the village doesn't mean you have to hate the remainder of the village. A foundational black american who is ados can go to a cookout by party of andrew jackson loyalist. But I think it does mean stop speaking ill of other tribes. That doesn't help, ala WEB Dubois to Garvey. Garvey never demanded all continental [canada to argentina] african americans to go to africa or agree to, but WEB DUbois didn't have to speak ill of garvey in court. That legacy of opposing + making grand public announcements needs to die in the village en large. Opposing is not a problem, but stop the hindrance. And to piggy back on that, as I have told black elephants [ members of the party of abranham lincoln for those who may not know] , that if they showed greater nonverbal success they will get more members. Nonverbal Success matters in any group. People see nonverbal success and they are convinced far more than any speech or letter or any similar. And yet so few black tribes show nonverbal success in a grand way.

@Dee Miller contact me privately and we can see how i can review your book

@Cynique You asked when did Obama deny Black Tribalism I quote obama in bold during his more perfect union speech it keeps us from squarely facing our own complicity in our condition, and prevents the African-American community from forging the alliances it needs to bring about real change. In one speech obama denied a set of truths. The changes desired by the various tribes in the black populace in the usa can not be in an alliance. I repeat, if a black person wants to leave to africa and become wealthy how does that connect with a black person that wants to be mayor of a city in the usa. It doesn't. I don't want to repeat about how some black people want to kill whites. I think it is obvious their desires for change don't fit well with black people who want to be presidents of the usa and have white colleagues. But he also denied white tribes. And combining, he denied the tribalism in the usa. HE denied three tribalisms in one pretty famous speech. But he said it earlier in the illinois state senate. Using my criteria all usa presidents are failures? I said the following What did I say that suggested Obama failed himself? Based on my criteria Obama never failed himself or the black tribe that he represents . I argue, Obama helped the black tribe he represents plus himself extremely. BUT that doesn't mean he helped other black tribes nor that he wanted to. Based on his words he seems to think he is, but that is an error many in his tribe always had. ala Frederick Douglass, ala the black people who fought to create the usa. They had the same thinking as Obama. It isn't new. I am not justifying I am part of the legion of black men who think obama was a failure. I am describing how those black men are wrong cause obama doesn't represent the village, he only represented one tribe. While I am also describing how those legions of black men who view obama as successful are also wrong, cause obama didn't help the black village, he helped a set of black tribes in the village. What I am doing is stating false two dysfunctional and quite repeated narratives. Obama succeeded for himself and the tribes in the black populace of the usa he is a pat of while he failed the tribes int he black populace of the usa he is not a part of AND , that is ok! IT isn't a negative. It isn't negative. What I am regaling is a desire for the black tribes to get out of each others way, and accept what each wants to do. To turmoil, fair enough, we accept to oppose. i don't think either of us like to dislike:) To your divorcing the black populace, that is cool. Again, the usa has always had a tribe of black divrocees from the black populace, in isolation or passing. I guess you are an isolate. It makes total sense to me. The Black populace has a history of failure in the usa. Humans like to succeed or be part of the winners, if you can't pass into the winners, individualism is the path. Luckily for Black divorcees the usa supports individualism against group activity naturally. The following is not for you Cynique. To the other who may read this, I see the usa as an empire, all empires are always dealing with internal + external chaos but that is expected as the empire exist. No empire in the history of humanity hasn't been in the exact same condition as the usa now. The modern global system was created and is managed by the usa. Did not the usa make israel where palestine once stood? Did not the USA invite financially poor people for fiscal poor labor plus votes absent making the current populace financially viable or sturdy across the board? Did not the usa after defeating the Soviet Union manage its creation into modern Russia? Did not the USA after defeating the Soviet Union define the global economy which all countries are apart of in various ways? The USA , like all empires in human history, acted foolishly because it had the military to do so. For me, humanity is just fine. For those worried about the USA, it has many many years to go before it kicks the bucket. Will the USA change in the near future, potentially, but its mismanagement of itself is the cause. People who loved the usa: black/white/native/latino/muslim/christian all warned , wrote books. But were not heeded, which is common in empires. But all will be ok. @ProfD For those communalists in the black populace, i advise they simply help their tribe and don't waste time reconciling the tribes for a fair reason. Many tribes goals have no bridge, didn't in the past and will not in the future.

@Cynique All I said was obama failed all black tribes in not admitting the tribalism. I never suggested he wanted to aid all black tribes or sought out to help all black tribes or one black tribe. But it was a failure, because of his position. When you are in a position of power, all of your actions breed successes plus failures, but not all successes or failures are based on what you want to do. If I run a school newspaper, and all I want is to tell the stories I want and i don't care about the readership of the paper, the readership of the paper is my success or failure , regardless of my intent. We... what I know is that Black Unity has failed multiple times in the past in the usa or the british colonies that preceded. I don't see black unity as elusive, it has happened a number of times, but it failed to reach their goals. I am not as extreme as you but the populace in the USA, which is far beyond any other in terms of multiracial makeup, is becoming more and more mixed, ala like latin america. And it makes sense. Latin America always had more people than anglo america and the opening of the usa in the 1960s mostly put latin americans in the usa, which leads to a more latin american interpretation to race, which is complex and full of fluidities. In parallel though, many communities in the usa are retaliating against this. I don't think the earth or humanity is in turmoil at all. I think that the usa has far more chaos in it than most places. The USA causes more chaos than any other with its meddling. But the USA was never a wise empire. But that makes sense cause the usa was never a wise country. It is a country based on genocide[native american]+ enslavement[blacks]+unbounded greed[whites] and that is a very negative trio.

@Cynique Does a problem exist that is deeper than the pecking order ?I say yes. White people pitting black people against each other as the masters is inevitable. But, the question is how do black people reply to white people themselves plus the usa? Some black folk kept in the house, hated whites or worked to kill whites. Some black folk kept in the field hated whites or worked to kill whites. Some black folk kept in the house, served whites lovingy or aided white power. Some black folk kept in the field served whites lovingly or aided white power. Black people's reaction to whites themselves is where the black tribes differences vary most potently. In my reading of the works of zora neale hurston, whom I love, I find little mention of internal black colorisms from blacks who lived before the war between the states. While in the letters during reconstruction I see a rise in colorism mentions. Which to me suggest, I admittedly can't know for sure, black folk after the war between the states, in our again, negative situation, grew the internal color war to fight for scraps. To paraphrase mlk jr , bootless people trying to pick themselves up by bootstraps. But again, the white populace is why we were fighting for scraps. In the usa today, the black populace has more tribes than ever before, and the unity of skin or background, ala DOS isn't enough. But the reason black unity failed in the past wasn't internal multivision,by my reading, it was a far simpler reason. We simply failed. Unity can fail. The irish took near 1000 years to get rid of the english and only got 3/4 of their island then. So technically they still haven't won. It takes time. you have many losses in a time, when up against a stronger opponent. But your losses are not because of your own multivision, you are simply weaker. As an enslaved people who were completely enslaved, not being allowed to even raise ourselves, that is a very negative start point to want to take over your masters. We don't have a situation like the irish or the palestinean. If any parallel to Black populace in the usa exist , i argue it is the romani or gypsies of europe. They live throughout all europe, are a part of european culture, but don't have any control of one country of europe. the Black populace in the usa is a similar story. Is it the same goal? Cynique, you think a black person wanting to go out and kill white people, is the same goal as a black person wanting to be president of the usa? Maybe you do, but for me at least, It isn't the same and I think that is where many in humanity get it wrong. Black donkeys side Black elephants are two sides of the same coin. yes. But, black people still desiring garveyism. Black people desiring militant stances against whites , are not the same thing as black people wanting to be elected officials in the usa. Obama could had served all black tribes, by admitting his actions aided only one black tribe. In my view, obama failed , like smiley failed, in admitting the tribalism. Obama couldn't publicly say that many black people want something he by default hinders. Again to smiley, he failed in admitting that Obama isn't failing the black populace, but only serves one group in the black populace. Smiley mischaracterized obama as a black person trying to unite all the tribes or responsible for uniting all the tribes. That isn't true, at least to me. When Obama said he is the president of all america, I knew he was correct. BUT, how many black people want black elected officials to be concerned with all in the usa. I argue, half or maybe more of black people in the usa , definitely a solid 30% to 40% wouldn't mind a black elected official who is unconcerned to the plight of the non black. And he couldn't because to admit such a thing is to state the usa isn't the country for all, which is a key philosophy of obama and black people like him. But history to be blunt, proves that position false. And, i will add, a third tier, Cornell WEst. WHile Smiley is clearly speaking from the black nationalist tradition in the usa which is older than the usa itself, it comes from the british period. Obama is speaking from what I call the black statian position which is as old as the usa itself. Cornell west is speaking from the moral position. He wanted Obama to be a moral leader. Obama wasn't a priest, but a lawyer. And moreover, the kind of leadership it takes to make an empire have a code of conduct is... rare. So in obama/smiley/west you have three tribes. Not to mention the likes of armstrong williams who are black fiscalists or Clarence Thomas who is a Black individualist, a growing group, which makes sense with all the failures of unity as well as the dysfunction in so many black tribes. I have to end with a point to the total stranger who may read this, what I said before only concerns the black populace in the usa. I have travelled. The black populace under every other government in humanity, to be blunt is a different makeup and what goes on in the usa's black populace doesn't apply at all, and if you apply the black populace in the usa to black populaces under any other government you will get dysfunction.

@Cynique the problem with Barrack Obama's presidency goes into the deeper problem in the Black populace in the USA which is older than everyone in this forum by hundreds of years, that Obama couldn't do anything about. The Black populace in the USA has tribes. There is no WE! in the black populace in the usa and I will be blunt, their is no We in the USA. Back to black people in the usa, the tribes in the black populace of the usa have different desires , different wants, always have. It isn't new. The USA was founded, again i repeat, with black people who fought to stop the usa from going into existence, while a lesser quantity but far more than one black person fought to start the usa. What bothers me, is that for some reason, most black groups in the usa, while they clearly differ on what they want for themselves or for the black populace en large, don't seem able to accept when other black people differ with them. Is the black populace in the USA a community of prosyletizers? I nearly hate proselytizing

MEssage me and we can share emails and I will read it. I don't see a link to the work in your post body. The problem is both sides of the argument hold truth. Christianity is a set of religions, not one religion, with one common denominator. The role of jesus as the beginning of christianity. In Christian history, the bible as legitimate or what it contains have all been contested between christians The identity of jesus has been contested between christians in christian history. IS christianity white? no Can a form of christianity be about and for white people? yes. Is the form of christianity imposed on black people by whites in the american continent and then continued through black enslaved parents or white masters to enslaved children about and for white people? yes Name one form of christianity not about and for white people? ethiopian tewahedo , a branch of eastern orthodox. Are all elements of Christianity by Black Americans , canada to argentina, about and for white people? no, an example are the negro spirituals. i didn't gospel music, I said the negro spirituals. Jean Ann , you are correct , christianity as a set of religions that exist throughout humanity are open to all. But, all the forms of christianity, in the american continent were initially made about and for white people, regardless of the manipulations black people made later. So what is the answer... your book. What you are doing is in the spirit of the earliest christian literature, the gospels, which originally had thousands of versions, not just those given governmental support after nicea. So keep i tup. I will take a look. If you want some inspiration consider my book https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/gospel-of-joseph

@ProfD The historic truth of both men, douglass+mlk jr, is at the end of their lives both men were opposed by a majority of black activist, while evangelized by white media. Douglass was booed mightily by all black crowds at the end of his life. And MLK jr was called a coward or some negative by an ever growing list of younger black leaders who saw dysfunction in his strategy, and definitely its results. But when both men died, they were respected for their activities by most black folk with no bad talk to them even with the negative results to their guidance. But white media used each as a false prophet really. Making them some sort of wisened black leaders when in the black community at the time of their death most black people acting to improve the black condition opposed both. Yes MLK jr was murdered by a white man while preaching to black people not to be violent in response to white violence. When Malcolm died MLK jr said Malcom's death was tragic an example of how malcolm lived. MLK jr didn't mean malcolm was violent but malcolm accepted violence from the black community against violence. from the white community, MLK jr didn't. But the violence from the white community murdered mlk jr. His death was a greater tragedy than malcolm. MAlcolm accepted fighting whites led to death, he knew this cause whites killed malcolm's garveyite father, who was a preacher as well. So malcolm being murdered was had in hand with his father's. But, MLK jr is truly tragic. A man who literally was murdered by those he continually told his own people not to retaliate against when similar happened to them.
