Earth III Claims Thread

Earth III
07-03-2005, 23:50
By approval of Sharina, the puppet has been created so that Earth III could be update more frequent. It is for her, and the Mods usage only.

I have decided to revive Earth III, as there has been Earth IV, V, and VI but no mention or activity in Earth III for a few months.

The most important feature of this new Earth III would be that multi-Earth RP'ing will be allowed. Nations that own land in other Earth's are allowed to claim land and RP in Earth III. People in Earth III are allowed to claim lands and RP in other Earth's.

That aside, I have decided to use several ideas gleaned from various Earth's to make this one the most flexible and reasonable Earth Claims up to this point.

Now I present you with the rules!

Rule 1:

Keep claims reasonable. A 100 million nation claiming the entirety of Russia and China would not be recongized. However, that same nation claiming New England area or the UK area would be recongized.

Rule 2:

For claims over your allocated claim limit, please provide RP's for it. These type of "over-limit" claims include conquest, annexation, "gift land", artifical islands, etc. If RP's aren't provided to prove these claims, then these claims will not be recongized.

Rule 3:

If someone claims a land before you, do not panic or get upset. You can work it out in a RP between the two of you, or claim another piece of land.

Rule 4:

No fighting, flaming, or insulting will be permitted in this Earth III claims thread. Continued flaming or insulting may warrant deletion of a player's claims from this Earth.

Be nice, and you shall be rewarded. Be a jerk, and you shall suffer the consquences.

Rule 5:

In cases of extremely large claims, a RP is mandatory. Example in case, a nation of 400 million with a claim in Georgia. The nation decides to claim Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, Louisana, and Arknasas. A RP is required to prove that the nation is capable of holding these claims, and to provide ample evidence for future claims or RP'ing down the line.

If its just "I claim these lands." or a few sentence RP like "The armed forces of Nation X has destroyed all resistance in Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, Louisana, and Arkansas. They are now parts of Nation X's empire." then the claim will be ignored.

Rule 6:

Refer to the list of claims using CTRL + F to find the claim you want. If it is not there, then great! You can claim it right away. But if it does appear, that means someone else has claimed it.

Checking claims would save us a lot of time and aggravation as I won't have to triple check every claim,. and you won't get upset if I deny your claim because of a "double claim" (meaning 2 nations claiming the same land).

Rule 7:

Two areas that are off limits for claims would be the Arctic and Anarctica for RP reasons that will be revealed in the future.

Rule 8:

Nations with claims in other Earth's WILL be allowed to claim land here in Earth III, and vice versa, unlike in Layatreb's Earth II. This is so that nations in Earth III would be able to interact with other Earth's, and vice versa. This would help open up more opporunities of RP'ing and such.

Rule 9:

No puppets are allowed. This is done so to allow more propsective Earth III members to join in, and open up more potential RP's with them. Also, this prevents puppet-wanking.

Rule 10:

If an Earth III member does not post or RP anything within 4 weeks, their claims are invalidated, and then immediately become unclaimed land. The player is then removed from the Claims List.

Rule 11:

Technology levels will NOT exceed 2020 level of technology. Exceptions MAY be made, if you can prove to me that the technology would be realistic, reasonable, and functional.

It is up to me whether to approve or not approve technologies that may not be feasible for MT "gameplay" or "RP-play". I will hold a discussion with my team of moderators to form opinions of 2010+ technologies.

This is done so to avoid war RP's with Uber Tech of D()()M That Makes My Army Uber-Invincible! RAWRRRR! situations.

Rule 12:

This is the most important rule of them all: Have fun RP'ing with each other!

==========================================================

Now here's the guidelines regarding claims.

Nation Size: 5 ~ 100 million.

Maximum # of claims: 2 small claims.

________________________

Nation Size: 101 ~ 300 million.

Maximum # of claims: 1 medium claim or 3 small claims.

________________________

Nation Size: 301 ~ 500 million.

Maximum # of claims: 2 medium claims or 4 small claims.

________________________

Nation Size: 501 ~ 999 million.

Maximum # of claims: 1 large claim, 3 medium claims, or 5 small claims.

________________________

Nation Size: 1 ~ 2 billion.

Maximum # of claims: 1 large claim, 4 medium claims, or 7 small claims.

________________________

Nation Size: 2 ~ 3 billion.

Maximum # of claims: 2 large claims, 5 medium claims, or 10 small claims.

________________________

Nation Size: 3+ billion.

Maximum # of claims: Varies, within reason (If a nation surpasses the 4 billion mark, claims would be higher than just 3 billion). It is up to the moderator, Sharina, to approve or not approve claims for extremely massive nations.

==========================================================

Small Claim Examples = Rhode Island, Conn, Delware, Vermont, Hawaii, island chains (except Indonesia, Japan, and New Zealand), Switzerland, Luxemborg, etc.

Medium Claims Examples = New York, Virginia, Ohio, Japan, New Zealand, Indonesia, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Iraq, provinces of Canada, etc.

Large Claims Examples = Texas, California, Mexico, Alaska, quadrants of Russia and China, Algiers, Sweden, Brazil, India, etc.


For you newcomers and new nations, do not worry. Your population will grow pretty quickly, and if you really want a particular piece of land or need new land, you can RP invasion and annexation (with my approval).

Important notes:

Russia is divided into 4 large claims. Northeast, Central, Northwest, and Southwest.

China is divided into 4 large claims. Northeast, Northwest, Southeast, and Southwest.

Australia is divided into 3 large claims. East, Central, and West.

==========================================================

Background: This nation is comprised of the Germany territory of Schleswig-Holstein and the Danish territory of Sonderyllland and Vejle. Capital city is Hamburg, with a second major administrative city, Vejle, in the North.)


This is the background to my new state... I mean its only like one small state from Germany and one from Denmark.. surely they wouldn't miss them???

You would have to contact the owners and see if they would be willing to give up the territory. Then tell them to contact me and tell me to verify it.

Rule 7:

If Antartica is off-limits, then why has Sharina claimed it? Also I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a space race to the moon, like between the US and Russia in the 1960s? The winner would get to claim the moon!

She told nobody claim it so she could claim it herself, I think.

And the space race is an interesting idea, but we would have to be carefull and not surpass the tech. cap.

The above is claimed by a nation with a population of between 1.82bn and clearly exceeds their limit, as stated in the rules.

Also, despite sending numerous messages, no reply has been received from this nation regarding the territory that Koningrad wishes to incorporate.

Praetonia has already agreed to cede Sonderyllland so half of the state of Koningrad is already in existence.

Therefore, the territories of Schleswig-Holstein and Hamburg will be subjected to a liberation campaign by the Koningrad Peoples' Resistance (KPR)unless the above claimed territories are ceded...

Whats the point in nations grabbing as much territory as possible? Dont you see that this means that other people who wish to join Earth III are faced with fuck all choices? That they probably wont want to join Earth III because of this, and we are left with a few players who have a monopoly on everything. I know I cant speak, as I have about 7 nations, but thats enough for me. I think its high-time for some major reorganization around here.

TAG and BUMPage. Sorry for my period of inactivity, I am now back and strong, new weapons, everything is redone, even my government is more in-detail and how I like it.

Also, those who own the following nations, I am willing for trade (I have TGed most of you):
Entirety of China (I know it is in sections)
Mongolia (Did not TG the person yet)
India (Golencia, same as half of China)
Pakistan (Unsure on who exactly, possibly GH)

Just an awareness, I will be making an IC post in the II later.

So, lets get this thing going some more.

EDIT:
And yes, quit complaining, I rightfully RPed them, and I actually took some lands from others I disliked. It is not agenst the rules, it is like saying "Alright, once you get 3 nations you have to stay at 3." That makes no sense, but yes, I do belive I have probably stopped a few new players from comming in, which is why once I build up my empire in Asia as I mentioned above, what lands I have left over I will just leave, but leave under watch so new players can come in and not normal players who jump on the first openning they see.

Ok, I just finished the update. Mauiwowee, you couldnt get Brazil, because it was previously claimed by Communist Brazil. And Chimaea, AzK already has Columbia, and has had it for a very long time. Also, Cimaea, I never saw you claim Somalia. But since both you and The Macabees want it you can settle it via PM and decide who gets it, or just simply fight a war over it.

Not to be a butt, however, I don't see any claim by Communist Brazil in this thread anywhere and it was not on the list when I made my claim - where is the "secret" list so we know to check it as well.

It was a technical error on my part. I removed Communist Brazil from the list because I thoguht he was inactive. But he had a RP going for a while with another Earth III member going on in E3, so I had to add him back.

Somalia was also one of the first claims I made, along with half of Canada.

The Macabees is welcome to attempt to invade it, however. Just contact me and discuss it first.

And yeah that's fine about Colombia.

I own Panama. At the moment, its all I have. Until I occupy and consolidate those places I am sending troops to.
Sharina owns the eastern US states you mentioned. Actually I think he owns most of north america and Mexico.
I think Sakhalin might be open but I don't know.
Most of the Carrib. is taken too (by various nations).

I'd just like to note this list I compiled of anyone on the list whose been inactive for at least a day. I'm not really accusing anyone of anything, but it is interesting to see certain people having been inactive into double digits of days now...
As for the people in the bottom section...I couldn't find their names either in this claims topic or using the display_nation thingy on nationstates.

1. Sarina has been inactive for quite some time, therefore his claims are null and void.

2. I didnt claim panama, I only claimed the canal.

Whittier PM'ed me about me possibly losing my land in Earth III, so I thought I'd post something here.

I am not sure whether I want to continue RP'ing here, because I have lost a lot of enthuaism for RP'ing in NS. Too many n00bs, war RP's that end up in ignore-fests or wank-fests, nobody is interested in REAL RP's like character development, exploration, cultural, etc. type of RP's.

Nowadays, people in NS all want war RP's and invasion RP's. I can tell you right now, only 5% - 10% of the war RP's will ever be completed, and not suffer the fate of n00blets, ignores, or tech/number wanking.

When people actually want to do real RP's then I'll be more than happy to try to squeeze in time for these RP's. I can't be arsed or bothered to join in or participate in poor RP's like 95% of RP's here at NS that go like this... ("OMG! I nukk0r j00! OMG! I invadd0rz j00 with 10 million tr00ps!" bullshit)..

I will check back a few times this week, and if there is no meaningful or original RP's in Earth III by next week, then regrettably, I will withdraw.

I have landed on Galapagos. I have 1500 troops occupying the place and am sending another 500. I am waiting a week to see if any one rps a resistance. I am doing the same with Easter Island and Greenland. If no one rp resistance for either place, I would like it added to my claims.

These are the estimated wait times I have calculated (from time of my troops arrival)

1. Galapagos - 4 days.
2. Easter Island - 7 days
3. Greenland 8 days (includes one more day for my troops to reach it)

As its been a couple of weeks since I attacked these places and there has been no resistance of defense of them, would it be possible to add them to my claims?
