[quote=@Lauder] [@Theodorable] I believe it is more about writing a story than mechanics, Theo. Not everything needs to have mechanics up the wazzoo :lol [/quote] Adding "lol" to the end of your statement doesn't make it any less presumptive about its sarcastic nature. I was merely making my interest known in the RP and my observation on why, though I'm interested, I would most likely not participate. I understand the allure of RPs based on frivolous textwalls of fluffs, given they are a no-risk investment, but my initial post was more of a compliment to [@Polybius] on his well written and designed world, opposed to everyone's input on stat based RP's. Given the competency of [@Polybius] in the past and my interest in RP'ing alongside my RP duties, I do regret not being able to join this; the standard "Nation Sheet" being the primary obstacle. If Polybius were to allow me to join with an abbreviated Nation Sheet, I would join. I simply have little interest in explaining the nuances of a nation's geography, economy, culture and military forces when they ultimately amount to nothing.
