Offworld Claims?

Post by Ryan »

Should the MCS allow for a secondary planet to be colonised by new members should the main map become filled once again and/or as an extension to the simulation for established members of the community (i.e. as in if a nation is a member for longer than 1 year, it gains access to the secondary planet for colonies, as a possible idea).

Please reply & discuss.

No. If you try to do it, I will take Anthelia out of the MCS and its periphery (MNN and MX2) permanently.

You could create a second planet for the inactive, almost dead and onecitizennations to play with.

oh please make another planet available. i would be so happy. i was originally in favor of this very same proposal back when Cibola was created to solve the problem.

i dont much like it being a Noob Planet.... Micras is the motherworld... and should remain so. The 3 month plan is good and should remain for all maps. I really do like the new map being available for older nations... only an established nation can realistically have the resources and organization needed to establish a colony.

i dont see any problems with it... if some nations can have wizards and elves, others can space travel. its the most realistic... what does an entire planet do when there's no more room? why go to another one of course.

i know im getting excited for no reason... no one else seems enthusiastic about it...

but i would just absolutly love the MCS for making a new planet. i would even volunteer to help draw/plan/manage/whatever it.

i would love the idea too but sort of afair to say so as so many dislike my ideas, some of which were thought out extremally logically although severly contraversial.

A simple no from my side. there is still plenty of room on Micras and most nations will have to withdraw some of there territory on the map that means that there will be even more unclaimed land. If there isn't enough room just create a new continent or some new islands or something like that.

We've already created a continent and islands... it recieved mixed but mostly negative responses.

I dont mind having to scale back current nations... but when do we stop? When each nation is an equal 10 x 10 pixels? That would be a disgustinly boring map... every nation small and indistinguishable. We need some larger natios, some medium nations, and yes, some small nations.

Been there, done that. :P Too much trouble to do again, and unrealistic in the end.

It's simple. Continue with what we have right now. Reduce territories when they are inactive. Prevent abuse of territorial expansion. Micronations die too quickly to prevent a complete land fill-out.

Another world would completely destroy all forms of realism that we have now. You simply can't have two terrestrial worlds in the same solar system.

And when it comes to magic, magic can be used in the minor circumstances such as warfare or culture and the like. But having it as a crutch to completely ignore reality is wrong. Same as abusing sci-fi. Unless you have the ENTIRE planet to have that theme as a minimum, but this is false - We generally have information-aged nations as the norm, not sci-fi.

As for how large? An optimal territorial inflation; by which I mean that land should be directly proportional to a measure of activity. Not all micronations are equal.

I have learnt not to be afraid to anymore.


a new map would have advantages, it woyuld mean people can stop resorting to making their own maps that fail miserably that ruin their chances of ever joining.

The MCS has never denied a nation because there was not enough territory left on the planet. As for qualifications, those are a minimum. The MCS cannot be professional without such simple qualifications from micronations.

NO. It takes ages to claim in Micras let alone you guys running annother map. What's the point of making another map when the application proccess for Micras is far from being successful.

I claimed because it was ready. Since when have you been in charge of claims and when they are ready? :?

Why not? They don't have to be in the same orbit, and they don't have to have the same kind of climate.
