The US uses Cape Canavral in Florida so anything south of that is only better. I'd say we use that as the line of demarcation. Anything south of Cape Canavral to the equator and equally on the southern hemisphere. Launching from Colorado would take a helluva lot extra power.

Hey. About the hurricane. I'm ready for it. but I'm thinking it would be nice to wait for Binthor to reply to my Cuban invasion a bit before we spring the thing. That way, you know, we're both hit equally.
And as for space, UI've got a lot of Caribbean islands. Want to use one?

Yep it's going to be a duesy that wrecks havoc. I'm getting the biggest brunt probably.
Sorry I haven't been around guys. Big project due in a week, and another due this Thursday. Then there's finals to study for....
Don't consider me killed off of E2. Just that I have limited time to RP and everything because of everything that's due...and then we got the Swim Team practices for two hours a day....gah.
If I don't respond to TG's for awhile, don't think that I haven't read them and noted them.
BTW, how'd the hurricane thing go?

I posted in the thread requesting to be part of the program, hope it was okay.
I know you won't want to launch from canada, but much of our nation is unpopulated plains, perfect for testing. We are willing to construct a multi-million CYSC facility for research, testing and development, as well as a small airport for taking scientists from every nation straight to the facility if needs be.

I didn't know there was a multiple earth rule oh and Earth BC isn't the same time period nor is Cold War, and I havn't really planned to play that other Earth anyways.

Alright, this is how I believe it goes... First off its Earth RL Claims by Chellis. Now, that slowed down or something so Holy Panooly created a thread with much the same claims (because I 'automatically' held Estonia and Latvia). Then, since HP went inactive for awhile, Independent Hitmen made a thread to carry on HP's thread. Independent Hitmen's thread is where I handed over the last of those territories (Estonia and Latvia) to Russian Forces. If needed, I can post in each informing that Russian Forces now controls Estonia and Latvia. Hope that clears it up.

If needed, I can post in each informing that Russian Forces now controls Estonia and Latvia. Hope that clears it up.
No it's fine. Tyrandis pretty much summed it up as well. Just curiosity :).

So question. If Binthor does not reply within like one and a half weeks and he's still been on NS at that time and he has not made a single reply to any of my posts for the invasion of Cuba, what happens?
I say if he's on for over three weeks (Because it'll be that time in about 1 1/2 weeks),p osts on other threads, but doesn't bother to reply to my invasion, I should get thye land I was invading.
This gives ample time to respond in some way, even if it's just an explanation of why he hasn't been able to post, and prevents any ignoring of attacks through time elapsed. At least this is what I think. Does this seem fair? I'll bump the thread a few more times and send another TG, but it seems like Binthor might not be doing anything for a while about my invasion.
OOC: The last time Binthor made a post was on January 13, and the last time he logged on was two days ago. Plus he's a member of the Roman Confederacy so you'll have to face a lot of strong nations.

Fool. I've already invaded. Like a week and a half ago. It was meticuolosly planned, executed, and should be successful. Plus, there's one slight problem with the Roman Confederacy. You're in the Mediterranean. I'm in the Caribbean. Ergo, an ocean and a half seperating us. Plus I just revamped my navy with lots and lots of ships. But if you want to come take me on, fine. So pretty much bring it on. I'm ready to take Cuba no matter the cost. Although wouldn't he have to request help for you to be able to give it to him, so if he doesn't request it, no help?
Oh, and do remember the fact that a hurricane's about to sweep through the area. I don't have to worry about supply lines quite as much. You do. :)

Ah, but see, the thing is, I won't be. Go see my thread "Samtonia announces Caribbean Empire." I want the Caribbean, plain and simple. Becuase I want to have the Caribbean. Because.......errr.....there be PIRATES there. And cigars. PIRATES and CIGARS. And Cuba has them both!
TLS, I suggest you keep it "theoretically", due to the fact my entire navy is located in that one, tiny area known as the Caribbean. In short, I'd kick you in the arse, as long as I wasn't being gang-invaded by a few dozen nations. And no, that is not theoretically. :)
One question. Southwest US would involve the.....west, right? Because he's still not too close. A few land areas seperating him from me, right? Am I wrong?
Layartab, it's the thread on page 1 of this thread, entitled "Cruise Ship Catastrophe, see the Mangled Hulls{Att. Binthor}"
I can go dig up the link. Do remember that this invasion is in its very first minutes, so there won't be anything of any other nation's response for a while longer. So I need Binthor's reply.

Just FYI I put this over in Aust's OOC: Stop it with the earths OK! (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=390090) Thread.
:: sigh ::
Every nation who belongs to NS automatically belongs to the NS universe. This includes the giant Earth where everyone is, with multiple continents, etc. It also includes the space nations who are future tech some 2 light years away and such. Earth N is just a game, within a game, quoth a mod. I see it as such.
Consider Earth N a country club. It's an exclusive little club where those who are part of interact with each other. Instead of playing golf, we obliterate each other and trade and this and that. However, you still belong to the outside world (NS Universe).
Having Earth N is maganable. NS Earth is like 30,000 miles from North America to Europe. That's nearly impossible to RP on a modern tech realistic level. In Earth N, the distances are as they would be in RL. It makes it easier. Also who wants to be bludgeoned by 40 nations when you and a neighbor don't agree on a border issue. It also limits the playing field and makes it a lot easier to RP in. However, just because one nation belongs to Earth N, that doesn't mean they don't belong to the NS Universe.
Aust, you are not part of Earth II but you could still attack me via NS Universe. And guess what, it'd be legit. People who hide behind their Earth N(s) holdings and require everyone to be part of that Earth to RP with them are just wankers.
And yes Earth II was originally created so that people who missed out on Earth I could get a claim. One of the original rules was that no nation who was part of Earth I could be part of Earth II.
When we restarted Earth II there was only Earth I, Earth II, and Earth V. About a week or two after we restarted Earth II I saw an Earth IV, 2 Earth VIs, an Earth VIII, and an Earth VII. At that point I said, this is ridiculous and I compiled the first list of offenders who were all corrected. Just the other day when I saw the third "Yet Another Earth" inside of 10 hours I decided to do some checking and walla.
Nobody can complain that this time around they didn't know because it's been in the first post since late November that if you are part of Earth II you are NOT part of another Earth.
Guess what, too bad, life's unfair, file a grievance!!!
The Commonwealth of Cotland has decided to prepare for an eventual Article 7 situation declared by Binthor, thus demanding that all forces available be drawn into the fight. We are merely following the treaty, and hope the other nations involved in the Roman Confederacy will do the same.

They've been floating there for....oh, for ever, at least since I've been on Earth II. So no satellite pictures would show much abnormal. Except a task force sailing past Cuba. And a task force is pretty tiny.
So nope, nothing out of the ordinary. And thus, no way of knowing an attack is going down.
Point taken Samtonia. No offense but large nations tend to give small nations a hard time about military size. I have spent many hours constructing and setting up my military structure to be a legitimate as possible. I have read probably 100+ posts and as many books as I can find on the subject. Everything done in NS is an ongoing project, building a military and developing it in NS is part of why I RP.
I will not post in the RP anything until war is declared as per your rules for the RP, but be warned when war is declared the Confederacy will become involved.

That brings us to the new "inactive players" rule I'm going to enforce. Anybody who doesn't RP or even post anything at all in Earth III or involving Earth III by Valentine's Day will have their claims deleted. This will free up land, while cutting down on "walk in, claim land, walk away never to look back" people taking up valuable RP "slots" and land space in Earth III.
This is going on over at Earth III. What do you feel about something like that here? Colodia I'd really appreciate your weigh in on this. Additionally, any of you have any opinions on this I would be happy to hear them, regardless of their stance.

I like the idea of it, but I think that if it were enforced, you may get a massive turnover of nations. What I think may be better is that instead of outright declaring that *all* have to post within a month with regards to Earth II, I think that a rule like that should only apply to people who have, say, more than 100,000 square miles claimed. Because in RL tiny nations rarely make their mark on the international stage, doing the equivalent of maybe two or three posts a year here on NS, so to expect the same of the tiny nations here would be a lot. However, for people with massive claims there should be no excuse- if you're a big player, act like one. Otherwise, step aside so the rest of us can take your spot.
I agree with RomeW. But there should be demands to the RP, so that they just don't post something like "The nation of A does not like ice cream".
Ok, ok, that was just an example. But really. There should be some deapth in the RP. An invasion, a plauge, a riot, something that will create action and tempt us others to participate.
Just my two cents.

If your asking for a portion of Texas, you'll have to ask RomeW for permission to lay claim on his land. He'll have to give it to you, most likely it won't be free at all. This is because, as it shows on those maps on the first page, RomeW owns all of Texas.

Guys I want to know what everyone thinks about this. It's nothing finalized yet but I am curious as to who thinks what and how. Everyone's opinion (regardless of their stance) will be welcomed.
Decree 12: Realizing that Earth II is a phenominally active Earth, it is imperative that all nation-states within this planet play a vital role. Mimicking real-life politics, one can easily see that nations, even small ones, play vital roles. In order to establish such as a coherence here it is vital that we too adopt a policy of activity. Insomuch as Earth II will be concerned, nations larger than 25,000 square miles must be active participants. One can simply look at real life situations and see that such small actors as South Korea, Taiwan, Kuwait, Bahrain, etc. are all relatively tiny countries yet they play highly importance roles. Therefore, if nations possessing more than 25,000 square miles are not active inside of Earth II then they will be open for action without their consent. The concept of "Claim Land & Run Away" shall not be the staple point of Earth II. There are many nations that do not have a stake in a claim in Earth II but who very much want to and will be active if they could claim land. Therefore it is the necessary action that all nations which do not maintain a minimal level of Earth II activity be removed against their will if they do not choose to do so on their own.

I agree with that. Also if somebody was to go away for a certain time can he post here so his claims wont be taken away?
And I was gone for sometime but I am going to start RPing again.
You SURE you have the time to enforce this and check up on people? It's amazing you have done all this as is. I don't want this interfearing with your own life.

Naturally this isn't like being inactive in NS, this is entirely different so yes we would have to make concessions for personal problems and situations that arise. That's nothing that any of us can really control and I'm not about to penalize people because life sucks. However, I am tossing the idea of concessions for those who have shown activity and those who have blatantly shown none. Binthor has shown activity but he goes on minor absences. Baltic Karelia was active, don't know what happened to him, same for Hogsweat.

I'm not sure to be honest... We have 70 something people in Earth II, that's a lot...I don't imagine it'd be something that could be done overnight except compile a list of who has done what. My aim here is that there have been many people who want to be part of Earth II but lets face it, there's nothing left to claim except some desolate hell-holes in Russia. Then you got some people who have claim over marginal pieces of land (Japan for instance) and who do nothing. It's really unfair...

Decree 13
All future nations wishing to become a part of Earth II must have a population of 100 million or higher in order to qualify to claim land. Current E2 nations as of 1/28/05 at 4:14 P.M. PST that do not have a 100 million population are safe from this decree.
Just give me thoughts on this one. Consider the hardwork Layarteb must do to keep E2 up and running. Think how much it'll cut down on the workload.

I want people to give this serious thought and weigh in with serious comments. Please...
I personally think the population bar needs to be higher than 100 million. Something closer to 300 million. Also, inactivity needs to be well defined. Bumps should not be considered active or statements like "The nation of blah decrees today national I like toast day." All these factors must be considered when drafting any decrees associated with inactivity.

Certainly such will be accounted for but good clarification.

I like it, but the writing needs tightening up. This is what I think it should read:

You may also want to define "active"- is it one month? One year? One century? One hour? We all have different ideas about what "active" means, so it's best that you define it so that we know what our limitations are.
(NOTE: If you want my opinion, set it to 28 days like on NS, because that's easier to keep track of and because people on NS already have a sense of that time frame).

28 days is for membership after that then you are deleted. This is for people who come, claim land, and run away and never do a damn thing.

i definelty agree with the inactivity, but about population, i think you should let a tiny nation join if they claim something small enough (ie some little tiny pacific island) as it doesn't make a lot of sense to have 200 million people crammed into an island thats 18 square feet

Perhaps changing the population matrix to say that anyone under 100 million people cannot claim more than 25,000 square miles?

You REALLY want someone to destroy your navy don't you? Well, since I don't believe we have any interaction between our nations, I'll more than gladly destroy your navy for you. Just make an ill-advised assault on one of my ports and I'll return the favour.

I think that, with regards to population, we should amend it that we adopt our territories' populations for our nation as opposed to using the NS figures, because there's no way we can fit over 100 billion people into a planet and still have all our nations be viable.
Thoughts?
