re: Basus, I noticed you ask for the sport you've been assigned but then chose 73/74 after Rasputin said that it was taken, not realising former occupants Greater Lambston had gone. Before asking for 20 or whatever-

So your claim on 73 will be recognised as primary choice, with 74 as a secondary (as it seems that we are going to agree on additional spots for nations)

Flinx, as Basus claimed first, (unless they relinquish their claim) they have priority for spot 73, you could claim 74 for your primary nation- although I would suggest choosing another spot, with there being so many spots you are spoiled for choice.

re: additional territories, a suggestion is going to be posted in OOC: The Rules shortly.

I need to get a trade route set up between Pan Land and North Texas.

I will choose ice hockey as the national sport of both The United Good and Grant Park.

Great job !

The United Good has sent missionaries to nation #3 on the map, I believe they would like to join us.

The Dominion of Nooland lays claim to area 143 (formerly Sheepsta) to accommodate our huge population

Pending on the decision of the rules, of course.

[Basus]

Basus still would like spot 73 and 74 but we have seen that spot 21 has been asigned to us. If our claim on 73 and 74 is not recognied we will stay on 21 till we have found a better spot. We wanted 73 and 74 cause basus is a island nation and this island lays in the centre of Apolyton and is a bit bigger then 21. We already have a large populus

[Ave'Tris]

I wouldn't mind taking over either 142 or 63.

I believe I posted this before, but anyway: the fact that this would be an insanely self-destructive thing to do, since it would result in most of your 'territory' being uninhabited and ripe for conquest by an outside power or simple fragmentation.

In real life, yes.

[Flinx]

But I wanted 74 for Flinxtopia and 73 for Flinxland

please

[Basus]

Basus would like to request spot 73 and 74

Thanks ceroomaster.

I am not against territorial expansion, I am against players starts out by grabbing large numbers of areas. It simply makes no sense that a small country (5 million) has control over such an enormous region while much bigger countries, ones with billions of people, get stuck in smaller areas.

Besides, where do you stop if an initial country can span many areas? What's stopping somebody claiming all of Apolyton?

[Rasputin]

ok i agree with Ur on this issue (makes a change )

No new nation should be able to grab multiple territories.

but larger nations with 1 bill should be allowed to expand of the small islands we started on back when we only had 5 million .,..
