The REAL number of nations in the NS world (See thread rules!)

You here peole say that there's hundreds of thousands of nations. True, but not in the RP world. What I'm trying to find out is the true number of nations in NS that are relatively active P/MT RPers (not in any earth, but in general NSworld RP).

The rules:

POST HERE ONLY ONCE!
The way I can tell the number of nations is the post number. DO NOT post here more than once. In your post, just put "I RP" or something like that. I won't post here either, to keep the number accurate. I guess if you want you can link to something.

And that's it! I'll start us out with one.

I RP.

However, this theory is seriously flawed, as it doesn't take into account those who have RPed to the extent that it's riddiculous to assume the land their nation was composed of simply disappeared, but who are no longer active, nor the various NPC nations, nor the fact that NS Earth is, theorteically, of infiinite size, as an indeterminite number of nations will continue to join.

Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, I have one final thing I want you to consider. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk. But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it; that does not make sense!
Why would a Wookiee, an eight-foot tall Wookiee, want to live on Endor, with a bunch of two-foot tall Ewoks? That does not make sense! But more important, you have to ask yourself: What does this have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense! Look at me. I'm a lawyer defending a major record company, and I'm talkin' about Chewbacca! Does that make sense? Ladies and gentlemen, I am not making any sense! None of this makes sense! And so you have to remember, when you're in that jury room deliberatin' and conjugatin' the Emancipation Proclamation, [approaches and softens] does it make sense? No! Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, it does not make sense! If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit! The defense rests.

Checking in...

But I just wish to say that if you wish to do this, you should categorize the number of nations. Example being: Make every nation, rather than simply saying, "I rp," state wether they are strictly MT, FT, they have two different versions of their nation (one MT and one FT) et cetera. This way you could add the number of MT nations in the RP world and then the number of FT nations, and make a compile the true number of nations, not rp'ers.

I RP past tech, future tech, a bit of modern tech, and also as part of A Modern World (One of many RP Earths on NS), which is modern tech but with a totally different nation, whereas my others are reasonably internally consistent with one another.
PT is what I've found most fun when it's worked well, it's just hardest to get going. MT is where I've found the lowest RP skills, apart from in closed-off RPs (note, not saying the others are perfect, just stating personal experience). FT is somewhere in the middle, somewhat easier to start up than PT, somewhat better done than MT, apart from all the Star Wars/Trek/Warhammer clones out there.

That is my single favorite South Park quote. I have a sudden urge to hug you.

Yeah, yeah. I roleplay, blah blah, etc etc.

MT.

But likely really active nations won't bother "proving" they're alive. And there are many who will never see this thread.

I can't say I'm RP'ing now, because for the last few minutes all I could think to do was try to write a clever way to say that I RP.

I could not. However, it was my hope that this statement explained as it was will fill in for my lack of imagination. Would that work? We shall see...

(I'm pretty sure the words [or should I say, letters] "I" and "RP" appear somewhere up there)

I think that this belongs in NS General, because it's not a II event.

And this post does not count as me existing as an rping entity, because I don't believe that there is an NS reality [yeah... just like Santa Claus and the tooth fairy, and teenage mutant ninja turtles...]

I RP, just usually not on Earth, but its still important to categorise me as an Earth nation, because I own The Magic Flying Continent of Ri-an that randomly roams the skies.

Its up for grabs if anyone wants to try taking it from the monsters and fiends and other things that inhabit it. It wouldn't be a very fair fight though. I doubt anyone could do it.
