Legions

This is a question to the Nationstates universe as on if any countries would be interested in joining a group of nations called Legions. Technically we are a support group, not really neccessarily a permanent alliance or anything.

There is really nothing you have to do, just say your country name so I can add it onto a list. This is growing, slowly, but it is growing.

Technically the whole point is to help make some inactive nations more inactive. Such as those:
a) Not well off in Nationstates
b) Needing or wanting to do something
c) Feel as if they have not been responded to by anyone - 'loners' I might add.

If you feel interested, I will add your country name onto your list. So, if you RP or anything, I'll get someone to RP with you if you don't have anyone.

Technically how it works is that you telegram me, tell me that you're going to RP, and I try to tell the other Legions that you're RPing, so that you may have a better chance of people RPing with you.

Eh, it always helps to have friends, especially since I'm just starting out.

Country Name: Thyne

I would like more info, such as who else is in this group, how long the group has been around, how the members have been around, and how many people are in it.

We have been around for about, maybe about 1 year and counting, give or take, but it was just a personal thing between three good friends until four months ago.

At first we decided to recruit people through telegrams, but they thought it was regional recruitment ads, so we got very little answers.

At first it was just Sanduras, me and Hsac, but we're growing. We started to make progress only a few weeks ago, even though we started longer than then.

The other guys are:

-Anarchy51
-Snuffies
-Sanduras
-Sharn
-Hsac
-The republic rulz
-Ressiv

They don't go into the forums, but you can meet them in NS. They're nice guys, normally. There's the occassional my-dog-died scenario. :D

Well, I've been playing offsite for over a month now, but I just started trying to rp here. Unfortunately, no ones replied to my post yet. :(

Sure. I can RP with you for the moment if you want. Since you obviously have seen, we are still not completely established.

Here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=398012) is the thread. I'll probably bump it tomorrow if no ones replied. Not much point to bumping it right now since I'm about to get off.

I guess I'll join, I mean, why the hell not? This'll at least provide for some RPing opportunities.

My RPs have a tendency to DIE, so this sounds good. Count me in. I'll have a look at that thread, too. I'm only in one that updates regularly at the moment - the others are pretty omgwhathappenedto-insertnamehere-wecantcontinue.

Yah, I'm checking in Thyne's rp then.

Count me in. I've been playing NS for a while now, but I've never really got into role-playing, and now I'd like to, so... sign me up!

I'll try and write a, sort of introductory, thread tomorrow night.

You are welcome to alliance your region with the one I supervise: Fatal Terrain. This region is one specifically for character RPers, and has grown quite a bit since its early days. Already we boast over 25 nations, and counting. Currently, we have six nations sitting in the waiting room, their NNO (New Nation Orientation) to begin soon. Basically here's the requirements of those that wish to join this region:


1) Show evidence of past character RPing skill. This doesn't have to be restricted to Nationstates alone.
2) Evidence of said RPing must be of the following criteria:
***Quality posting
***decent character development
***more than simple one line responses
***no godmodding (I am all powerful! You will die! ,etc)
***respect of other RPer's characters, and ability to cooperate peacefully in RPs.
3) There is to be no region-crashing (not that it's possible, as I have set the regional settings to prevent such an action)
4) There is to be no openly declaration of flaming comments between members. Minimal comments on the regional forum is allowed however, but beyond that, take it to the party in question. The rest of us don't want to hear about it.


That said, you now know what Fatal Terrain is all about. Also, the nations in this region have been known to post consistently, and usually within a timely manner. However, we all recognize that we have a busy life outside of our little world secluded into the corners of NS on the world wide web, and temporary hiatus from any RPs is accepted. However, if you're going to be on hiatus, don't start participating in RPs and not completing it with others.

If you wish to join, you'll have to telegram me and follow the instructions above, as the reigon is password protected.

Also, it might be a good idea to set up a factbook or something of the organization you have set up. It'll help people know the facts they need to know. It can also be used as a sort of signup.

Hell, you could edit the title of this thread, and make it that, use your first post as the info (which could be edited with each new bit of info)

So, does anyone have IRC? If so, head on over to #Legions

What's IRC?
Thyne
16-02-2005, 23:32
A chat client. It's not really necessary, but it would give us a place to talk away in real time. You can download a client here (http://www.mirc.com/).

Hmm. I would be a good idea to set up a site or something. All right, I'll make one.

But to Tarlachia, this isn't really a regional thing. This is more of national thing. It doesn't really matter with regions to me.

Alliance seems cool. I'm not really the leader of this though. I got overthrown. :rolleyes:

Don't you have to pay for mIRC? :confused:
Tarlachia

No, you don't have to pay for mIRC. It's free. Just don't sign up hehe, I didn't. Just click continue, and load it up.

On another note, what should I put on the info site for the Legions?
Thyne

Umm, who's a member, links to active threads people are involved in, how to join, a brief summary of the history of Legions.

Just some stuff off the top of my head.
Jenrak

Yeah, Okay, I'll try to get working on it soon. I'll post you guys up on when I'm done the basics.

Also, I'm not good with pictures and sutff, so if people can get some pictures they think are nice or can make some then thanks.

This thread has been going a while but only has 6 pages and three people involved. Due to it's shortness, it'd be easy for someone to read so you can decide whether it's your style (much humour is happening, so if you're the melodramatic type... neh.) and maybe join in (although, ask first, I don't know what the other people are planning. Well, I assume none of them want their characters to die, I don't :P
