I'm fairly, acutally I'm really interested in this. I like the idea, plus the game looked good (Never played it but read the OP twice, might take a gander into the wiki) when I went to almost buy it.

Don't worry about the fact I joined in the last 20~ or so minutes, I've been roleplaying for over 4 years now, starting off with these kinds of RPs and then going on to nation-building RP sites like NationStates and Statesmanship.
