The cities are strange until you assign a nation (I don't remeber exactly what it is, but it was something like Team 1, Team 2, etc.)
At the point that I have to invent an alternate USA is about the point that I give up on this whole thing. It just shouldn't be this difficult.

I know that. I set the value at 3000.

But you're not telling me anything I don't already know. It's clear that you can make changes in Notepad that will change the values in the nation editor. I've done that. But, as I pointed out, those changes aren't reflected in the players that the game actually creates. When you create a game, what is the national breakdown of the player pool?

Yeah, I know that too.

Geez, give me some credit.
