@TheRebelKnight Are we allowed to have multiple nations? I want to make a nation of mutants in New Zealand.

[Dinh AaronMk]

@RhineQueen

That seems unnecessary, tbh.

[RhineQueen]

@Dinh AaronMk The mutants in New Zealand are mostly human, but about half the size and hairier. They are a peaceful people who are contented with themselves and non-warlike. Do you get the joke?

[Dinh AaronMk]

@RhineQueen

No, it's more the owning two-nations under one player part I contest. I can understand creating NPC nations which are in-directed in "off-times" between any direct interaction or reaction to other player actions. But a single player owning more than one "nation" suggests boredom on the behalf of the desiring player and that any one of their nations is now easily disposable in favor of the other.

Really, you should be trying to foster a long-term relationship with what you have over what you could have. And given what you do run there's no lack of internalized content. More-so than a state of mutants with self-imposed isolationism. And arguably the territory you span consists of several unique nations and identities already.

I could raise a number of real-world points that'd act as inspiration on how something such as that would be meeting with a lot of internalized bickering and a lack of cohesion on its own part. Historically based on Anglo-Franco rivalry and Franco-German rivalry in the later part of modern history. Or even of UK criticism and eagerness to actually abandon the predominately German-Belgian led EU (The EU is often held in high-esteem among mainland Europeans and less so the British). So you have plenty of material to write on your own over a wide-range that you should not be bored in Northern Europe and shouldn't need to be someone else at the same time.

[RhineQueen]

@Dinh AaronMk Fair enough. I was trying to make a LOTR joke. Because the mutants would basically be hobbits. In New Zealand. Where they filmed the moves. Get it?

[Dinh AaronMk]

@RhineQueen

I do, but it wasn't necessarily the best joke around.

[RhineQueen]

@Dinh AaronMk Then why get so uppity if you got the joke?

[TheRebelKnight]

@Berlinburner We are full as the Join Status states, and since you didn't even ask I can't really let you in. If you had asked I might have considered it, such as previous people, but you didn't so...

[Berlinburner]

@TheRebelKnight Alright. I mean I kind of figured posting a sheet would be like asking. Plus it's not like the rules mentioned a player cap, or that someone should ask, so I figured that things were still open if I claimed unclaimed land, didn't see anything about it being full. Plus this is my first time here, so sorry I don't know the etiquette.

[Orcus]

Sorry about not posting my right hand is in a cast as of a couple days ago, it took way to long to type this with one hand.

[TheRebelKnight]

@OrcusNo problem, I completely understand

[Monkeypants]

If a spot opens, or the gm instituted player cap rises, id like to declare my interest in a china-korea-Japan nation. And a detailed history as to how the four nations merged together as irl, that is not likely whatsoever.

[Derlerks123]

@Monkeypants That sounds really interesting! I personally would love to have such a nation, but infortunately yes, we have reached player cap, and I am verry sorry you weren't here sooner to join! You will be the first one I contact as soon as a spot opens or the cap is raised :)

[Dinh AaronMk]

@Monkeypants

>Japan and China doing anything together

How Guizi

EDIT - Not to mention is busts this wide-open:

5.) Please don't claim excessive amounts of land, like half of Europe and all of Asia, that's stupid.

A Chinese-Japanese-Korean coalition would lock down a lot of Asia for one person.

[Lauder]

The player cap, I didn't see it until I finished my form... all of the religions hates me.

[Derlerks123]

@Dinh AaronMkI don't mean to sound rude, buy why did you post in IC already? Not everyone got a chance to post.

[Dinh AaronMk]

@Derlerks123

Because neither was there ever stated that everyone has to post at least once before IC can continue but because I did it before and Rogue didn't care.

You guys really have a lot of invisible rules.

[AkitaKhrushchev]

Hey there. While it's probably pretty obvious, I think I'm going to drop out of this RP, unfortunately. That being said, I'd be completely okay with someone else coming along and replacing my (admittedly rushed and underwritten) Russia with their own, or whatever they feel like doing with that space.

[Dinh AaronMk]

And why should I wait for undeclared drop-outs to, since Akita has announced that?
