well wouldn't you be able to create a new post?

well wouldn't you be able to create a new post?

That would entail restarting the thread, and frankly, when Hog comes back this thread will be just as good. The map update is just a temporary problem. Who has the second post on the thread?

Well, I have third, so I can always update that with a link to the new map.

For now we will just have to stick with posting it on Mac's post. I hope they will look down.

Well, I have third, so I can always update that with a link to the new map.

yeh, though we will probably still get requests for places that have been taken a while ago. I guess we will just have to live with it and refer them to the updated map.

Let the claiming begin:

All rules still apply :)

Mac go ahead and put it up on your third post. :)

Sweet god it's beautiful!:eek:
Why were we allowed only 5 claims, why?
(actually, 5 on that map look quite larger than my claim now..)/desperate;)

Sweet god it's beautiful!:eek:
Why were we allowed only 5 claims, why?

Because otherwise I would claim 1-44 :D

On the new map I would like to claim #'s 21, 22, 23, 37 and 38, please and thank you very much.

#33

Tell me when i get them

I won't actually update the map until we've got a couple of requests but I'll confirm them so you can start RPing :)

I'm thinking about updating daily once.

Confirmed. :)

man i wanted 38 grr.

Can i claim #43? I need more shoreline heh.

This would put me at 5 total now... :-)

#17, please...

Confirmed :)

I will confirm you but first:

hahahahahahahaha....you didn't get #38.....hahahahahahaha :p :lol:

Okay now that's finished, your claim has been confirmed :)

[Hm, I'd like to claim land but am stopped by the fact that there are no slots next to Omz. I don't have any real objection to the slots that are numbered and opened, but there are logistical concerns involved that I would rather avoid. In short, I'll wait for spaces next to Omz' holdings before I claim anything.]

[Considered it, but the nations on the island are an unknown quality. It'd be all too easy to isolate one portion or the other, I'd only select those if I knew I had an ally on those borders that I had unshakeable trust in. You wouldn't happen to own North Saint Claire, would you?

Btw, what's the scale on this map?]

Btw, what's the scale on this map?]Nope... There was a discussion in one of these threads on scale, though its location eludes me at the moment, my appologies.

Its at the bottom left of the map.

.5cm = 100km
1cm = 200km

bah, with scales! I just made it comparitevly with the origional continent. Too lazy and didn't notice it before. :p

Danke. I didn't know what that line represented.

Danke. I didn't know what that line represented.

I would just go with one of those pieces a couple of millimeters away from Omz222. I mean its not that far away. ;) I would create custom land claims but then I would have to do it for everyone and that's one thing I don't wish to do.

Also note (for now at least), I will not accept any custom land claims!

If you could put up that waver Mac in your post, that would be great. :)

[Well, if there were any land claims available that close to Omz, I'd gladly take them. However, the closest one is next to Sarz and that isn't acceptable for the stated reasons. I'll just be content to wait until spaces next to Omz become open.]

There's no empty spot next to Sarzonia's claim. :confused:

There's no empty spot next to Sarzonia's claim. :confused:

yeh, I was confused by his comment also... :confused:

I'd like to lay claim to any 5 adjoining territories, preferably with shoreline.

Let us know...

The Vul

[Okay, then what's 997-999?]

[Okay, then what's 997-999?]

there is no 997-999. The updated map is here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=10138291&postcount=506)

[Okay, now that that's clear. 18, 20-23. It's to be called Tryne.]

21, 22, and 23 are already claimed.

[14-19, not including 17.]

14 is taken.

[Okay, 15-19. And you really need to update the map, especially when people start making claims on what appears to be perfectly clear land on the most up-to-date map.]

lol, make it easy on yourself and read from the map update on page 34 on...

[You know what, never mind on that last claim. Just realized Barentburg claimed 17. Make it 1-5.

EDIT: Where abouts is this group of land located, in relation to RL bodies of water?]

Can I get 41 and 34? It will be called Dubh al Aingeal.

[You know what, never mind on that last claim. Just realized Barentburg claimed 17. Make it 1-5.

EDIT: Where abouts is this group of land located, in relation to RL bodies of water?]

I believe it was established as somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic.

[Good, I'll finally have a permanent presence in the Atlantic. To be honest, it was getting to be a pain in the butt every time something cropped up in the Atlantic and I had to send ships on top or below landmasses just to get to the trouble.

Btw, is my claim accepted? I have a post written up to deal with the expansion, but I want it confirmed before I post anything.]

nobody really mentions it is in the Atlantic... but okay.

SU isn't on to confirm it, but I am sure he would so I will give you the *confirmation stamp*

Is it possible for the CSA to claim spots 1-5, then?

Is it possible for the CSA to claim spots 1-5, then?

please read a few posts before requesting... the last person just requested those.

Make that 31-35, then?

When are you going to add more landmasses? It looks like all the appealing terrirories have been taken by now.

May I have colonies 21-23, 37, 38?

Please read, those are all taken

I'm requesting 6, 7, 8, 11, and 12.

Would anyone please update the map. It getting really annoying not knowing what is and is not taken. I mean it only takes a couple of minuets.

Look, SU is doing this as a favor. He is under no obligation to help... and yet he is so chill out and read two whole pages.

MOre like 37 pages. I dont know what map to use and there are so many claims it is hard to deciher who has what. I'm just asking someone update the map. Its the leats you can do to get people involved.

I understand SU is just helping, but it really is getting annoying you know.

As I have pointed out about 5 times in the last day, the updated map is on page 34...

We can't update the map on the first page because this is Hog's thread.

That is the map that I took my numbers from....

Did you read the posts after that map was posted?

Can I just have that area above Lame Bums?

Updated. Sorry took so long, I was at school and then i was talking to Pushka while doing this on MSN.

Did I miss you? Two reasons:

1) By accident.
2) You didn't post in the requirements or broke some rule.

I've been thinking, and I've decided that I might just make a couple of more continents (big ones) if demand keeps coming. But that entirely depends on how much demand their is. Also Mac could you post this in your post? That would be great.

I think it would also be useful if someone could link to the IC threads for this, as for those of us who are newcomers, and maybe also edit it into one of the first posts of the thread. It would really help out.

Would it be possible for you to add a very small island group in the middle fo the triangle created by Haraki's, TSS' main colony and mine, and then give it to me, just a very very small one, a few dozen square miles

TSS already make a link thread for this. It's located here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=454571).

Edited the post with the link to the post that has the map.

SU, I was kinda wanting the whole white area there. Is it okay If I just goo ahead and RP the taking of that land aswell?

You should look for Truitt's thread because he wants to do the same thing...

Is it too late to get some land? If not, I would like to claim numbers 42 and 40. Thanks a bunch.

Sorry I'm not doing any custom requests for any land for right now because of my own reasons right now. Sorry :(

Mac: Thanks :)

USSNA: Like DMG just said, that place is currently is in dispute so giving you all that white area isn't going to work. RP taking it over (more like battling Truitt for it). Whoever wins or dies or whatever happens, I'll update the map.

Bonus01: Also there's plenty of land as you can see. Your claims have been confirmed. Happy RPing :)

I've been thinking and maybe we should create a new thread (temporarely at least until Hoggy comes back) so we can modify the first post and put up everything a newb needs. What do you guys think? Once Hoggy comes back, he can either go with that thread or more likely he'll just come back to this one.

TSS, my colony is called Tryne. If you would, please update it.

I'm not TSS :p But I'll put it up as an update for tomorrow. I only do one update per day (expect it around 12:00 lunch time).

[My appologies, I had my head up my ass. Thanks for putting the correction in the update que.]

I've decided to call my colony 'Merska', so whenever you update it, could you add that?

Yea when you update it. My colony is called Odessa. Thanks!

When I update it, I will fix those two things, too.

[bump for claims]

Hey Space Union, could I claim 30-32 on the new map?

Colony Name: New Eglin

Hey Space Union, could I claim 30-32 on the new map?

Confirmed. :)

Updated with the new claims and of course name changes. Hopefully I didn't forget anything.

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y76/Blackbird-SR-71/hwmap6.png

Hrm. Any chance of getting #27, for potential future RPs?

edit: Call it "Altai".

Confirmed. :)

Could I have #42, 40, 36, 35, and 28? Call it "Pan-Harad".

Regretfully, Jagada restarted his account under a different name, so he agreed to assume that Jagada's territories [the colonies under 'Jaga' and 'Jagada'] would be fully ceded to the Empire [The Macabees]. Apart from that, I believe that those under New Hellas have also been ceded to be by the player [Nikolaus the Great?]; Doom spoke to him on MSN - he doesn't have much time to role play so it's just being done OOCly [although I need to TG him]. Thanks SU.

Both of your modifications and claims have been confirmed. I'll update the map tomorrow with all this. :)

I've not watched this thread; just heard people mentioning it, so I don't really know what's going on; but is there any room left for me to grab some land?

EDIT: Wait a minute; i might change that.

NEW CLAIM: 15, 16, 18, 19, 20.

Name it Libertad.

The Holy Empire of Qarez would like to claim territories 26, 27, 29 and 30 as New Qarez.

Map Updated:

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y76/Blackbird-SR-71/hwmap7.png

All claims have been confirmed.

Qarez: I confirmed all of yours but your 27 was already taken (read the posts ahead guys!) so I just gave you a neighboring claim that was empty but didn't have a number. So yeah, you got your 4 claims.

Is there any chance I could add either 24 or 25; or would that be too much?

[OOC: Don't be greedy, Mac. :p]

[OOC: Don't be greedy, Mac. :p]

[OOC: What, it's not THAT much. :p Look at how broken my coastline is, though. If I had 25, it would make FOUR independent coastlines for me to guard against... Oh, and look at Macabees storefront to see the army i'm building for... no reason, in Libertad.]

Is there any chance I could add either 24 or 25; or would that be too much?

Sorry, you already have your 5 claims. Its a rule.

There's still room guys :)

The Republic of Pink - A joint colony by the Republic of New McFarland and the Republic of North Saint Clair, both of the Commonwealth of Saint Fedski. Denoted on the map by "Saint Fedski" and "North Saint Clair". Prepare for some tribal conflicts with spears, bows and arrows and hunting rifles.

Jagada, next to SA and Spizania, should be ceded to me as well; it originally wasn't a target, but it's ceded because Jagada decided to simply change nations, settling the war with a full annexation of his territories.

If Jagada gave his colonies to Mac, why is he still on the map with the territories next to me?

EDIT: Mac Beet me to it

I want to by that territory from you Mac

Come on guys. Keep on claiming. If you guys show interest I'm willin to make more continents.

Can I claim 24 and 25 please named Bury

Can I claim 24 and 25 please named Bury

Confirmed. :)

SU, I think it would be better to use the names of the nations that claim the land, not the colonies, it would be easier to identifiy stuff and know who owns what.

SU, I think it would be better to use the names of the nations that claim the land, not the colonies, it would be easier to identifiy stuff and know who owns what.

Well yeah, but people want their colonies named. I might just make a list stating what names belong to who. Also I really need to fix those colors, they're ugly and too dark.

Not depending on what you decide, the colonies labelled Saint Fedski and North Saint Clair should be coloured the same now. They have been united to form the Republic of Pink (a new, soverign nation, but automatically admitted to the Commonwealth)

Also I really need to fix those colors, they're ugly and too dark.
No offence, but the brighter colours on the map just doesn't look... normal, if you will.:p

I think the brighter colours look good too. I don't know if it'd be worth the trouble to recolour everything, but if you're willing to do it, I think bright colours would look great.

Thank you for managing this while Hog is offline by the way. I haven't fully taken advantage of the RP opportunities presented by this yet, but I intend to get to it soon. That dastardly foe real life just keeps sucking up my time...

SU, I did yeah a favor since your a good guy an all, too bad we havn't crossed paths earlier. I included me and Odessa's changes too.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/Truitt/hwmap8.png

I just changed some colors where it seemed too dark in a certain region, so I only changed a few people's colors.

Democratic Colonies: Thanks :)

Truitt: Damn, that looks nice. Oops, I forgot to add your modifications for the map. My apoligies but you did an excellent jobs on the colors. A couple of area seem still a bit too dark, but I'll fix that myself. Thanks a bunch :)

No problem, willing to help out any time. Yeah, I just made a mark-up job, lightening up the map a bit. I got carried away with the island I am on though, trying to match the island below me, so...yeah.

Be thankful I didn't color yeah pink, and I have more humor to Prae for that!

Yeah and you colored Doom purple. :p

Just a couple things, Truitt, you forgot to finish making the SF colony white. There's a sliver of land between the green colony there and the Democratic Colonies that belongs to Saint Fedski as well.

And, the for future reference, i know i have posted it a couple times but i havent seen it responded to...the two colonies (Saint Fedski and North Saint Clair) have been united to form the republic of pink, an joint colony by both nations.

Before anything happens, I must warn the colonies of Findan, Clan Widowmaker, The Isle of Skye, Exetonia, NYC, and Questers that they may be caught in the middle of a large scale battle.

Nice job... though I am not a fan of the white color for a couple of the colonies. It makes them seem unclaimed and unofficial...

Well, unclaimed lands are marked in being so, plus a forest-like color has been chosen for neutral, unclaimed lands. I belive white would be a great color, actually.

Ever seen a real map in which a country is colored white? (no)

Have you ever seen a real map with the nation "Doomingsland" on it? (no)

Sarcasm aside, I think it looks great. Grey usually is the neutral color on maps, though, which this one isn't quite....

First of all, that wasn't sarcasm; it was a rhetorical question. Sarcasm would be, "Oh yeh, white would be great on a map! *rolls eyes*"

Second of all, just because the nations aren't the same as a real life, doesn't mean that the map should be unrealistic.

Third of all, there is very little if any neutral or unclaimed land in real life, so grey wouldn't be used.

Am I supposed to take that like your offended or frustrated or what? I Was talking about my sarcasm so...yeah.

As to the whole color thing, why the Hell are we talking about the color on a map anyways and sort of taking it personal....

But with all that aside, I was being sarcastic and I put mine aside, I'm not talking about yer comment. White, I will admit ain't the best color, but it is one, and we need variety on this map.

Guys calm down. Its just a coloring. I'll adjust it myself if its that big of a deal. ;)

Don't you just love Christmas? It brings out the A-hole in all of us :)

I am not taking it personal at all and the reason I was talking about it is because people were making comments and I threw my 2 cents in saying that I didn't like white as the color of a nation.

We have tons of variety, I just don't believe white is the best color for a nation.

um, whatever colors you choose, please note that my large colony and the small land labeled "TV" are both property of my nation and should be the same color kkthx =) (and man is that PINK)

Can I have 25?

Can I have 36?

Damn. Our nation may need more space... time to utilise this advanced technology for a reason...

Alright... I am not sure why you hadn't already, but that is not my concern.

It is possible that SU will create new continents/islands in the future so if you want take a look back here...

Yeah, the update that I will have up to day will have a new continent or two.

awesome... maybe I will claim some more land (I haven't decided)

awesome... maybe I will claim some more land (I haven't decided)

Did you claim your maximum amount?

You know what that means! War! Invasion for land! The European way!

Don't worry it won't seem that after people start picking territories. ;)

Can I claim: 17, 16, 15, 14? and name it New Xharnia?

Who owns that red spot next to Skibereen?

Xharn: Confirmed. :)

Mac: That's his. The blue territory belongs to the other guy that has blue on that continent. ;)

nice work SU, although again, on the next update, can you make my other territory (labeled "TV") the same color and/or write the full name "The Voltarum"

thanks =)

also, "India" was part of Hog's origianl colines along with the rest of the ones you have labeled... it should be the same colors as the others...

Could we start allowing 6 colonies rather than 5 per nation?

sorta conffused about whats claimed and not claimed but can i have 1,2,3,4,5 if there still avaliable

TV: Oops, keep slipping my mind, I'll do that and fix Hoggy's colonies in the next update.

Spizania: No.

Patriacha: Confirmed. :)

I don't suppose you could add #20, #22 and #21 to my claims (the ones on the new northern landmass) unless I'm confused and they've been claimed already, I only have two so far.

Not to get on the color subject thing again. lol But my colonies color is awfully close to the color of the water. I dont really mind much, but can you make it a bit more visable?

Can I get #7,8,9,10 please? Name them 'Ukos', please.

[Gah! You drew the UP of Michigan.]

Now do all our colonies have to be next to each other?

I have 3 territories already, could I claim 2 more on the new continent, or is that all I can have.

No, that is fine. They don't have to be next to each other or on the same continent; the only rule is that you can only have five.

[Gah! You drew the UP of Michigan.]

Damn! Nobodies suppose to know about my conspiracy! :p Oh well, off with SS's head. hehehehehe :p

Everyone's claims are confirmed. USSNA I'll modify that. :)

Go Nebraska Cornhuskers! :D

In that case, Qarez wishes to claim #36 and #39, also to be named "New Qarez".

Im sure my claim didnt used to be bright pink. o_0

I must once again point out that the very dark green (the one on the lef) colony between the "Democratic Colonies" and the baby blue land of "Clan Widowmaker" should also be hot pink! That's actually a nice colour.

Ohio State Rocks!

I would like to claim 47,48,50,52,51. This new land is called Komodia after our national animal the Komodo Dragon.
If I may claim more than five, I would add 49, 45 or 46 ( in that order ).

Aesagacia: You can only have 5... as the rules said (if you know the rules, I am not sure why you are asking if you can have more). I am also not sure why you put a link to your nation in your post...

Hey, its not like making the world more overcrowded is hurting anyone. ;)

*Mocks SS with a "Nebraska beats 20th Ranked Michigan" banner, and a shirt that says "Order Restored"*

Sorry, I had to rub it it. :P

Go Nebraska Cornhuskers! :D

Just because I live in Michigan doesn't mean I like any University of Michigan team. Go K-State football!

No, no. Its not harmful at all... It is just annoying when people claim land and then don't RP anything about it; they just let it sit and do to waste.

And that's why I'm going to do some clearing. People that don't RP with their claims by the end of the week, are losing their claims. Hoggy did the same thing, so I don't think he will have a problem if I did that too.

[Erm, the little thread I did about the formation of Tryne is sufficient, yes? I'm definately going to do more with the colony, once it becomes a full Duchy and has the military forces necessary to do the job I have in mind. Until then, I don't have much in mind, although... Yeah, I know what I can do.]

OOC: The problem is that there are many people who doesn't really have the time to do so, and/or that they aren't really looking to start a war the moment they land in the region. So the "clearing" proposal must be reconsidered carefully and with the aforementioned facts in mind before it proceeds.

Err... Christmas time is a bad, bad, bad time to consider any sort of 'cleansing' for those of us who actually work for a living...

OOC: Yeah, I know. That's why I'm allowing people to post in the thread that they are going to RP but haven't found the time yet. That and even one RP post will suffice.

Mekugi: Hahaha, of course I don't work. :p Like I stated to Omz, I'm going to let people put in a notice if they've been too busy to RP, and that will suffice.

The question is, when will the deadline be to make an IC post for your colony or make a post here saying that you won't be able to post any time soon...? (Basically, how long are you willing to wait?)

I'm going to start after New Years and the deadline will be a week later. That should be more than enough time.

Yeh, I agree... thats plenty of time and most people will be back home from their vacations and into their normal routine. If they can't post then... well then that shows exactly why they don't deserve the colony land.

I have a question with the way things are going in my nation right now there is no way they could suddenly just discover New Xharnia and just claim it.

Could I start my thread a says it is a few years back? (NS time I mean)

and also:

Since: I have 14, 15, 16, 17

For my fifth could I also claim 18 for New Xharnia?

Do whatever you wish. Also that new claim is confirmed.

the people of the soviet state norilsk16, would like to acquire: space union,
number:2, and number 3, if numbers 2 and 3 are not available, the space union would be a pretty addition to hte soviet socialist state.

the people of the soviet state have had a change of heart, numbers 997,998,and 999, giving the soviet state some towns on the mainland..

we donot wish to make serfs of these people, but we do wish to have more people to give the world a new look at hte glories of socialism..

the soviet state has spoken

The map is located here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=10177389&postcount=668). None of your claims so far are valid.

Uh, I didn't know that I was on sale? :p Please read the map before posting claims. Stupidity isn't an excuse for not reading!

2 of the guys 7 posts are here lol. I guess he's just new. But common sense would say something better....

I simply wished to cover all bases in case I missed rule changes. I am quite satisfied with the 5 territories selected.
Are the role playing posts to be in this thread? Are there any parameters limiting the player's imagination?
Why not place my link here?

Aesagacia

The role play should be in its own thread. The link should be placed either here, or more accurately, in The Silver Sky's link thread.

And here is where you put the links: http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=454571

One. Month.

I am bleeding.

Anyway, looks like you guys handled it well enough without me. I think I'll wrap this thing up and hand control of it over to SU and Mac and TSS and whoever helped. I don't think I can manage anymore T_T

Although I'd like to know what the bloody hell happened to the map. The colors look all fuxored. and the names too. I would have appreciated it if you kept it in the colours I intended rather than random unmixed RGBs. For the record, the font is "small fonts" size 7.

OMG Hog is back! Welcome back to the internet buddy!

Eeegads! Hog has returned.

*screams like a british schoolgirl* Hoggy! *jumps up and down then gains control of self*

Nice to see yeah back, socialist economies suck ass, huh? [/cheapshot]

The map looks sexah now, leave it alone :P, but its nice to see you back.

In fact, I think SU will be able to manage this well... Though regarding the map, I do agree that the colours seems a bit... disorienting at least.

Welcome back!

If there are any left; Azimeth would be satisfied in taking [or paying for] a colony in/around Hogswetia.

Welcome back Hoggy! Yay!

*throws a party for Hoggy

No prob, though. You can take over any time you want to, seeing as it is yours :p As for the map, I think it looks sexy right now. The other one was a bit.... dark for my tastes. Unless you've joined the dark side recently....... :p

Read the map.

I'll be posting an update soon. :)

I was informed that the map was outdated.

Map Updated:

I'd like to request 26, 31, and 32. for The Lone Alliance. (TLA)

please SU, at least fill in the letters and standardise the font.

He's back! And..it is standardized, and most of the letters are filled in, except for a few that are the old color.

please SU, at least fill in the letters and standardise the font.

I'll do that, there's only a couple of places where we have that problem. Almost every name is also in size 7 font except a couple of places where a smaller font was nessessary to fit the name in. But I'll be fixing the entire map tomorrow so I'll keep this in mind. :)

TLA: Confirmed.

Ya, but you used Arial(?), not Small Fonts.

Ah, okay. Sure I'll change that.

I would like to add some territores to Azaha due to that northern continent.

-41

That will bring my total region claims to 5.

The Imperial Republic of Azimeth requests permission to colonize areas #33, 34, 37, 40 and 43.

Can I get 11, 19, 23, 24 and 25? EDIT: Don't be fooled by the low post count. :p

[bump]

Sorry guys that I've not been active, but I've been busy getting used to school again after the break. I'll update it soon. :)

All claims are confirmed. :)

[bump for claims]

[Aye! Not two bumps in a row for claims! Never has this happened!]

Thanks for bumping the topic. I've been trying to find the topic all day. Now I can update it with a new map. :)

lol, you could just subscribe to it... or bookmark it... or make a link to it somewhere... or search for it... or :D

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y76/Blackbird-SR-71/hwmap15.png

Updated.

Also I did search for it but didn't yield anything. Oh well, I can subscribe now. :)

don't search the title... just search threads created by Hogsweatia. Its probably the top one or two on the list since he hasn't started many (if any) threads since then.

Note: You are automatically subscribed to threads you post to. Look in your profile and you will get a list of your subscriptions.

Wait... wha? Are you saying that everytime you post in a thread, it makes a subscription to it?

Yep, and everytime that thread is posted to by anybody it bumps it up in your own private list of threads you're involved in which automatically tag themselves in your profile. [clike on profile underneath the NS banner].

EDIT: Damn you Mac, beat me to it....

I don't see this list of threads that I have posted in... only the list of ones that I have subscribed to myself.

Because you've probably subscribed to all the ones that you are continously posting in, which are the ones bumped most often to the top. But all the threads you post in are put there - I know because I never subscribe unless I can't post at the moment, and all my threads [all 1115] are there.

It doesn't work for me, either.

Well that isn't the case for me... I post in plenty of threads I am not subscribed to and they are not on my list.

I just figured out the mystery. It is a setting located in "Edit Options" within your profile. Under the Messaging and Notification subtitle, there is a section that asks if you want to subscribe every time you post... mine is at no.

Will there be anymore lands added?

Put me provisonally down for 27,28,28,39 and 30, under the name Novus

Hmm the united states wishes to express its interest in three territories, 28, 29, 30

Hmm the united states wishes to express its interest in three territories, 28, 29, 30

All three had jsut been claimed by Novacom in the previous post.

ohh well then cancell that..

the united states wishes to express its interest in some territories, 44,41,42,46,40, and 49.
(edit)

(edit)

that is six territories, the maximum is five.

shave 49 then...)

edit your post then so when SU looks for things he has to update, he doesn't have to read through every post.

i'd like colony 12 (north) as colonial czechotova please

umm, if a new continent is comeing soon, could i plese lay claim in advance? :D my country, such as it is, currently has no physical location, and i figured on useing these as it, you know, for practicalitys sake, but i really don't think my country want's to be choped into lots of random little one teritory bits with a different nation on every border :( so, yeah, if this could be considered, it would be greatly apreciated, otherwise, consider this me adding the thread to my subscription list for later claiming :D

yeah, so, if you do accept it, a coast line would be nice :)

thanks.

a) it is kind of hard to reserve something that doesn't exist
b) don't use smileys in your post (1 at the most)
c) probably isn't going to be more land added (though I don't know)
d) just keep checking back to see when the map is updated.

I believe I had said that as #4. The first three were just comments on different things...

hehe.. emoticons!


seriously though, if i was being all super in charicter, there wouldn't have been ANY, because i would write more like a novel and less like a person speaking. emoticons are, after all, mearly an abreviation for typeing out "..he said, smileing" or "he winked as he said..." you know.

thanks for pointing that out, though. heh. interestingly enoughi just found some advice or rules or something saying to keep the emoticons out of IC threads, like, 5 minutes after reading yoru reply about them, DMG.

and yeah, i'll just keep checking the map then. of course, i fully expect to be 2 hours too late to claime anything that looks anything like what i want, every time. life's like that, you know.

Hey guys, I'm interested in grabbing some land, but doesn't it count as imperialism if I do?
