This thread is the OOC and Sign Up thread for the nation roleplay, Civilizations. Please keep all chat not related to the actual in character roleplay here.

This is a brand new roleplay where you can start off with a small tribe and expand into a interstellar empire! Each time period will have it's own roleplay thread to post in, before advancing to the next one.

Civilizations: Tribal = Completed = 15,000 BC to 2000 BC
Civilizations: Classical = Completed = 2001 BC to 500 AD
Civilizations: Medieval = Completed = 501 AD to 1760 AD
Civilizations: Industrial = Completed = 1761 AD to 1950 AD
Civilizations: Modern = Current Stage = 1951 AD to 2030 AD
Civilizations: Space
Civilizations: Interstellar

In addition to all this, there will be a constantly updated map for each time period, if you'd like to expand faster, you'll have to take the land by force.

▁ ▂ ▃ ▄ ▅ ▆ ▇ █ ▇ ▆ ▅ ▄ ▃ ▂ ▁

Rules:

There aren't too many rules, but no killing off another kingdom unless they agree to it, and you can restart your kingdom if you wish. If you read this, put "Ice" in other. Don't godmod or powerplay, and follow all regular roleplay guidelines.

Don't build too many nuclear bombs; the limit is 5 at this time. Add "Dragon" to other if you read this, after the other codeword. If you use a nuke, you can replace it after 10 posts (by anyone).

Here is the map of the world from the Industrial stage: ht[]tp://img[]ur.c[]om/5W0[]EXwi (remove all spaces/boxes!)

And, if there are any conflicts or arguments, what I say is the final decision. Lastly, have fun!

▁ ▂ ▃ ▄ ▅ ▆ ▇ █ ▇ ▆ ▅ ▄ ▃ ▂ ▁

Here is the sheet for the Modern part of the roleplay:

Nation Name:
Head of State:
Government Type:
Currency:
Starting location if you haven't played in tribal or classical stage:
Capital:
Description (Optional):
Other:

Okay, because GO has not taken time to sufficiently explain our extreme measures to counter rampant godmodding, I would like to address these issues, as well as present and hopefully fix both major and minor godmodding problems currently in this roleplay.

CURRENT MAJOR ISSUES:

1. GO's massive population. Tudor currently has 10 billion people in all of its colonies. See Explanation A.

2. Mang's rapid technological jumps and far too advanced weaponry. See Explanation B.

3. Rapid expansion into the outer reaches of the solar system and the establishment of colonies on the Moon. See Explanation C.

4. Admin and owner power abuse. See Explanation D.

CURRENT MINOR ISSUES:

1. The massive deployment of unreasonable and impossible amounts of troops. See Explanation E.

EXPLANATION OF MAJOR ISSUES:

- Explanation A: In real life, the population of Earth is 7,000,000,000, and we have expanded and settled around most of the world's land. The fact that in this roleplay, a majority of the world has not yet been settled, and that one nation has over 10,000,000,000 people, is absolutely impossible. IRL, we have already reached an unsustainable level of population, and so, imagine what 10,000,000,000 people, plus the population of other nations, would do to this world's resources. Even if you say that your tech level is extremely low, or living conditions are very harsh, you still have the resources to establish a space program.

I propose either keeping the population of Tudor at its current level until the middle of the Interstellar stage, or agreeing on a MASSIVE (more than 6,000,000,000 casualties) disaster. Following the disaster, you would not be allowed to expand your population much further until the Space stage.

- Explanation B: This reason was understandable. Because of constant attacks from other nations, there was a need to develop advanced weaponry and defend against overwhelming enemy forces. However, the development of laser guns, and other advanced technology such as self aware turrets and G.L.A.D.O.S. (I have played Portal 1 and 2) is impossible. The research needed to develop an effective laser gun wasn't available until 1984, and the gun constructed was still in prototyping and scrapped. We still don't have self aware AI - a very basic version was developed in the 1990s and early 21 century. Before you say that we have always "been ahead of the times", remember that in the Classical and Medieval phase, there was a larger year jump per post, and so, the problem was not that large. The fact that you have made this technology has led to a snowball effect, with everyone scrambling to also invent it and climb on top of the tech tree.

There could be 2 ways to fix this: a disaster wipes out the tech, with your permission, of course, or the technology simply doesn't work at all.

- Explanation C: Rapid expansion into the stars. While I am fine with developing space travel early, I am NOT okay with building research laboratories on the Moon, and especially Mars. I PM'd electrobolt about this, and he said: "Alright, but keep in mind that Space is just early colonization of the solar system, so keep everything inside the solar system. Interstellar is when you're able to expand to other stars." If the Space stage is early colonization, then in the Modern stage, we should not have left Earth at all.

Again, a somewhat godmodded disaster could fix this, wiping out the colonies and destroying the tech. But, I don't want to do anything without the consent of others.

- Explanation D: This, I attribute to a lack of communication and the generally uncontrolled powers of owners and admins. Rapid, sometimes godmodding, disasters were put out in a hasty effort to fix problems, but only worsening the situation.

I propose that me and GO PM each other before posting an event or disaster, and we try to post about and fix godmodding in the OoC thread before taking drastic action.

- Explanation E: In war, sometimes massive amounts of vehicles and troops are sent into battle without the ability to construct them, or even need them. For example (not picking on anyone): "We Run 800 million Tanks into Tudor and 400 million planes." It is impossible to have that many troops amassed at one time so suddenly.

This isn't a major problem because troops numbers were never moderated and the numbers can change at anytime, but it is worth watching.

CONCLUSION:

Godmodding runs rampant in these threads, steadily becoming more obvious and bold as time passes. Without proper disciplinary measures, as well as controlled, communicative action between thread admins, things may take a turn for the worst. Say "aye" if you agree with this thread, and feel free to post suggestions below.

We Builded nothing on the moon.

Just a few robots to protect our spot .

So when we can live there we have a head start.

Yeah, vam, you're fine then. I'm talking about sending robots to Mars. Although, you'll have to replace those robots sometimes.

Laser guns were just to blind the enemy and G.L.A.D.O.S stands for Genetic Learning Active Destructive Operating System The testing was a complete fail and it was scratched until self aware AI came along and I'm cornered against two godmoddeing nations who say "I march to your capital taking no damage from your attacks and burn your capital and enslave your people."

Seriously burning all buildings in a city in just one day is impossible.
