I'll have a cleaner post up soon, but I wanted to address the whole nukes debate:

I don't think the ability to threaten people with nukes is necessarily an advantage. Sure, you can nuke someone and even threaten to nuke someone. But at what cost? Yes, it can get your country some respect points, but if you actually plan on using the nukes, you're putting your country in a perilous position.

Three things:

1) We really need to figure out how to combine these worlds. People seem to like the portal idea, but I want to see how you guys think that should work out.

2) Here, answer this.

3) Country Sheet Sample (This is just a very rough draft and an example of information that would be included. Obviously, you wouldn't make a country this ridiculous, but I wanted to make sure I didn't copy something people already had in mind):

Country/ Organization/ Group Name: The Koalaminican Republic

Modern Countries it includes or spawns in: Dominican Republic, Australia, Central Canada

Type of Gov't: Constitutional Representative Anarchy

History: Thanks to an a vote passed recently by congress, the country is forced to do nothing but the Macarena for eternity. Not magically added to the country.

Resources & Wealth: Leads the world in doorknob exports. Relatively poor.

Military Might: Has an elite team of fighters known as the power rangers and no nukes (I don't think every country should be guaranteed nukes).

Relationships: Can't stand Russia. Has alliance with the Bolivian Kaleidoscope Overlords of Eastern Wales. But only on Thursday.

Important Leaders: Bob Ross, influential governor

Religion, Language, and Culture: Everyone speaks via Morse Code with low clicking noises. 83% of the population is a pastafarian. On Fridays, members of this society are unable to verbally communicate.

Other details:
@Emuxe

I haven't even taken midterms yet.

What America are you guys living in???

Anyways, I'll have a post up for Pickles soon.
So do I have a fin and can I use it as a knife?@SpookySquid


No, sorry.
I just took a computer science final and got 60/60 questions correct xD too easy. I'm gonna go into my Calculus final in a few minutes.


Hope it goes/ went well!
What do you guys think about me making a couple of straw polls and having people vote on what they want to see?

(e.g. races, how the world's cross over, etc.)

Also, I'm pretty sure we've established that the world cross over will happen during the early part of the RP.

Also, what do you guys think about the ability to make "custom countries"? For example:

"The Republic of Western Europe, a combination of what in our world, is North Korea, Japan, and Russia that has a constitutional monarchy" (Not saying I'd want to be this nation, just using this as an example of something that could exist in our actual world in an alternate time line, but doesn't.)

Finally, I'd think it would be pretty interesting if when these worlds crossed over, certain countries and regions that weren't politically important would gain influence based on the magical resources that became available there. Just a suggestion.

Oh, I almost forgot- I'm going to make a rough draft of a "Character" Sheet format. Any suggestions?

End of finals week for me. Good luck.

@JustYui

It's mostly just interaction. There wasn't really too much that happened with Gastro, to be honest. Last attack he did was fire-lava breath thing.


Oh my gosh, I just realized Mrs. Pickles has done more than Gastro. XD
"Just a experiment about how a modern civilization will react to a new world full of magic and new resources, would it end with another war between themselves and the inhabitants of the new world or would it create a everlasting peace? That is for you to decide as the leaders of the leading nations of the world and the fantasy one."

*Note: I don't claim any ownership of the idea for this RP, complete credit goes to Wildman13, who is still free to GM this if he wants. Just wanted to get things moving, because he hasn't said anything on his original interest check in a week.

We have yet to decide on how, exactly, we want to go about doing this and the parameters of this magical fantasy world, however, I have outlined what we have established and what we recognize we are going to have to make decisions on.

This will be updated as new decisions are made and new problems arise.

  • Private Organizations? Heck yeah!
  • Countries? Yes, after a strawpoll vote.
  • Control of Nations in the New World? You got it.
  • How the world combo happens? Unclear, although we have some ideas.
  • New: When will the world combo happen? The beginning of the RP.
  • New: Alternate Reality? Probably, to an extent, with different nations and rulers.
  • Races? "Duh! We already have those in our world-" Shush. I'm talking about elves, ogres, goblins, gnomes, telepathic water buffaloes, whatever. What do we want to see? And, if we have elves, are they Lord of the Rings style elves or Santa's elves in the spirit of the holidays? (I vote Keebler Elves).



Time skipping saves you from the necessity of explaining how the worlds crossed over and is easier if you time skip far enough ahead. But I definitely think we should do it during the actual "collision."

Also, it's been a while since the creator of the thread has said anything. I'm going to remake the interest check, however, I don't know if I would be comfortable GMing, at least not without a Co-GM, due to the lack experience I have with nation RPs and my schedule.

I'll probably remake this in roughly an hour with some details regarding things that we have already established we would like and put the link for it up here, if that's okay.
