I created the old Earth 2010 series, but it was a bust. I was too inactive because real life got really weird. Anyways, I want to remake the RP seeing as how there has been a lot of new developments that have occured in the world, opening up room for even more.

Nation Claims

Da Rules


No godmodding, and do not call godmodes on the RP, call it on the OOC thread
From now on, all nations must show evidence of quality RPing before they can join
All nations must create a newstread within the first two hours after they join
Only the Mod or Admin's ruling can nullify a post, and the ruling must always be by a authority not involved in the RP
NO NPCs are to be invaded, that means none
One must respect other players and their political ideas, IC actions, or anything else that may arise, I want none of that on this RP
Leave political arguments at the main thread, I want none of it on the other threads.
Overall, don't be stupid, you know the things that will get you kicked out, so just don't do them

I'll take China if you don't mind

I'll take China if you don't mind

I do not

Seems Cliche, but I'll take the United States.

And also any plans for an off-jolt board for non RP related items?

You could take the US, but I have already taken it, and I have not thought about that, I was figuring that we would use this for thread for that. as well as there would be an OOC thread for all RPs

Israel then.

With the off-site forum it would be more organized with trade actions or little things that would rather clutter up Jolt.

Is anyone good with maps because I need someone to make a map of the world, as well as a sphere of influence map.

Hmmm...interesting. I shall claim...South Africa!

Could I have a new politcal party ruling South Africa at the time? Im thinking...The South African Imperial Party(SAIP)?

perhaps the UN should have collapsed sometime in the 21st century after all the fighting..

I think it might be in Israel's best intrest to take back all of the land of Palestinian....Just a little forewarning of whats to come..

My first choice is South Africa. My second choice is Argentina.

I will take Great Britain.

*Bump!*
Lets get some action going!

Hopefully this won't take long so we can start.

I can already imagine my South Africans in their pith helmets.
"Tally ho! For the empire chaps!"

I will take Taiwan thanks..

Just in advance be prepared for: 'Welcome back Nationalist China'

Oh and don't make my sphere of influence too small.. Taiwan and US are very much buddies in real life, Taiwan has itself some pretty good stuff going for it, especially with this 'US Funding'.. hehe.

I won't, it looks as though you would be a US sphere of influence, seeing as how we are the only thing keeping you from becoming a peice of dogshit that is controlled by the Chinese.

Can I take Russia?

I would like South & Central America

I would like South America
That's not a nation.

You are correct ... Sorry


I'll Take Brazil

Much of lower Africa should be in my sphere of influence.

Not that it matters, for soon they shall be part of the South African Empire.
For king and country!

Not 'digshit' seeing as they would probabally take good care of TW if they invaded it, they seem to really more want to annex it for they think it is one of their 'better provinces' but yeah I know what u mean. :P

Can I make my own country? :confused:

Arrgh! Lets get this started!

Yep.

The sooner we get this one started the better.

Need to wait for Viet to set it up though.

Is he EVER on?

I am the USA, as already stated twice, but you are welcome to pick anyone else. And we can start once we get a palestine (i don't want isreal coming in and taking it over before palestine had a player.

Would you mind picking a smaller nation? Seeing as how you have been on NS for a very short amount of time, and need to learn the ropes first.

What should I mark it as?

Oh, and everyone needs to make a newthread, where they can put their histories, as well as announcments and links to their RPs, and then post the link on the thread, so that we can keep track of the RPs

What should I mark it as?

I guess it might as well be Saudi Arabia since I try to take power there. I plan to do it democratically really to please the western powers.

Well, what is your charater's name.

I'm sadly going to withdraw my Chinese spot, I have lots of ther stuff I'm doing right now, have fun

That what the Off-site forum would be for.

I have ab offsite forum that I set up and am not using. If you guys want we can use that.

Oh and just a heads up. Im the resident Spain player. Can you say "Fascismo"?

That what the Off-site forum would be for.

Yes, but it would be better know and less prone to death if is on the NS forum, I will talk this over with my co-admin Philanchez but this is my view on the issue. Now we can start once everyone makes a thread

I'll have Palestine then.

I'll have Palestine then.

Still that is a major country in this game, you need to first learn the ropes in a country that is less important (besides, I don't want you to get gang raped and have a bad taste for this RP) tell me, how do you feel about Italy?

Can I have Germany?

Italy is thousands of times more powerful than Palestine, but maybe you're refering to the storyline

Has Great Britian been taken?

Could I have Argentina? If not, Panama?

EDIT: Never mind, somebody has Argentina. So, could I have Panama?

I'm not sure when Vietnamexico will be back to approve your claims, so you might as well go on ahead and post your histories. If they're good Vietnamexico would probably be fine with you all being those countries.

Heh. Here's a thought. With all these nuclear weapons, we'll probably have seen some polar melting. The result? Greenland becomes prime real estate.

Wouldn't there be a nuclear winter? There are plenty of countries open other than Greenland, although if you really want it you could probably have it.

Nah. Just a general comment. I may join later, but not right now.

Chances are it wouldn't be cold enough to refreeze the pole.

Plus, with all the dust that got thrown up, there'd probably be even more heat around even after it dissipated.

Yeah possibly, although if we go with the fact that the poles melted, the map would really have to be redrawn. Many countries would be completely or partially underwater.

Something you accept when you use terrain-changing devices. ;p

Yeah, though don't forget it was France along with some other countries that launched the nukes, not Venezuela.

as would most countries

I was wondering if I could begin RPing as Japan. I won't really be able to have the fact thread up until around Monday since I was clever enough to forget to email it to myself and wont be able to get it until then.
Very Sorry.

You could, but you NEED to get an information page up so people will know what your country is like.

plz RP on the IC Thread

Yeah, though don't forget it was France along with some other countries that launched the nukes, not Venezuela.

I was talking about Aeson's speculations.

OOC:
I'll debate joining this.

Although i was wondering if i do decide to join, could I be a consortium of corporations that have taken control of a country. Or would that be going too far?

Well I'm guessing you'd have to come up with a damn good backstory for that, plus, you'll have to face the reality of the difficulties of doing such a thing which most corporation/states conveniently leave out.

I was talking about Aeson's speculations.

No, what does the clarification of who used them matter?

Yeah. Thats what i was guessing. I'm going to be really hellbent on trying to figure out a backstory for this if i decide to do this. But thats if i decide to do it. I'll think about this for a little bit though before i decide on if i want to join this or not. Till then you all have fun!

Yeah I thought that he'd only be gone for a couple of days but so far he's been gone for at least week. With Philanchez also not active, both E2015's admins are inactive.

If this thread dies (or even if it doesn't) everyone on this thread should check out this similar RP that me and H-town Tejas are doing. It just restarted and is based in the year 2050. Depending on the size of your NS nation you get to claim a certain amount of land, which there is still plenty of. But even if you don't have a big population you can still invade to get more territory. But you all should check out, here's the site: http://s9.invisionfree.com/Earth_2050/index.php?act=idx

If it's not too late I wish to join as:

If you guys want thsi to survive then redo it. Start a new thread and call it Earth 2015: The Revival or something and that way you can have an active US and attract more interest. Right now theres no interest because the main player is not active and there are no RP's going on.
