  • Schedule Slip: The author went on a year and a half hiatus between the posting of Turn 10 Phase 1 Results Part I and Turn 10 Phase 1 Results Part II due to a combination of quest issues (the Chinese Federation's Eunuchs had a spectacularly bad series of rolls that the author felt were unrealistic) and external problems (Slayer Anderson's house lost power during the Texas freeze).
  • What Could Have Been: As a quest, certain paths were cut off due to lack of interest by voters.
    • Jeanne was one of three possible advisor candidates that could have been chosen during year one. As for the others:
      • Inarah Inbal was a first generation Britannian and the Piety Advisor. She was forced to flee the European Union due to both her race (she's of Romani descent) and possession of mental talents.
      • Jules Bittis-Itterman was a Britannian Child Prodigy (he's ten years old) and was the learning advisor. He's reached the university level, attended the Oxford St. Louis Campus, and apparently the grandson of a knight. Also, he looks very effeminate (his appearance is based on Ernesti from 'Knight's & Magic).
    • There were also three choices for learning advisor, with Kenshin and Hashima being the duo that was chosen.
      • Bertrand Smith was a Class A Britannian felon who secured the most consecutive life sentences for non-violent crimes, specialized in cyber-warfare and cyber-security. His assistant, Su Tollard, is implied to be a using a fake identity (she's in Britannia on an expired Visa for a country that doesn't exist) and is a master at working with drones.
      • Dr. Hugo Zhishi is a leading expert in manned robotic vehicles, and helped the E.U. and Chinese Federation design their most advanced tank designs, though he intended them for non-military uses, and resigned after this...personal betrayal. He has resigned four times and only returned now because he heard that Schneizel was interested in his field of studies. His assistant, Madison, is gifted in the fields of cybernetics and medicine, though she has been unwilling to commit anything to paper.
