If we do start posting IC in the next day or two, I assume it would be okay for me to start IC if I still have one or two sections of my sheet a work in progress? 

If not I'll stop with the one or two paragraphs per day and sit myself down for an hour or two to finish this sheet off all in one go.

Not everything has to be finished in your sheet. This is about common sense. Just don't start using stuff that you haven't 'published' in your nation info and such. Surprises are all well and good, but don't go about inventing stuff on the spot too much. It needs to be fair.

Okay, good to know I can write from whatever perspective I like and I don't have to be the leader constantly. A question though. How do you change stuff in your nation? Do you just announce the change you want to do (e.g. building more ships, improving weaponry, etc) and then you'll give me a time estimate of how long that'll take or... Excuse me, I'm new to Nation RPs.

I'm going to wait for the first post to start things off, and then I'll start writing about The Great Nation of Oxfrieght. Always nice to get some inspiration.

Generally what happens is that you write what your country does, what are the prevailing issues, sentiments, actions etc. Do you send out emissaries, build a fleet and such. A handy thing is to include a "Too Long; Didn't Read" (TL;DR) section at the bottom of your post in which you put what your post was about in a few points. It gives a summarised outline of what you've been up to. After a period of time, which will be a sensible thing, you can start seeing the fruits of your labour. I don't want to work with an absolute equivalent (1 day of OOC = 1 week IC). That would heavily favour people with buttloads of time on their hands, whereas this is about [i]writing[/i], not RL time management.

[@Sini] Can I be the first post with the Ryukyuans or should I wait for you?

You can go ahead. I am just going to make the first IC post blank for announcements or handy stuff as an OP.


Expect a map tonight (at the earliest) though tomorrow is a safer bet. Everyone but Cold and Captain will be in the same sort of area as the last example showed, I think. Apologies if this inconveniences anyone, but I will not be around a lot today.
