Suggestion Yearly 'Let Minors Be On The Map' Suggestion

Imperius Indomitus Imperius Indomitus

Since the Empire of the Lost and Dark Empire were recalled three days ago you sent an invitation to myself (and presumably other EOTL staff) asking us to join you (and the other Sith Ascendent and DE writers) to join you in the creation of a new faction. Then, after two days of trying to make those arrangements with you (in which we were not included in the planning process of a new Imperial faction) you ignored us, and then posted the Empire Reborn without our input.

You had at least eight writers (combined with many more leftover from the DE) on the table and willing to create a single Imperial entity on the map. I was informed yesterday by another writer that despite the invitation you made to us to join in on the creation a new Imperial Remnant it turned out that we were never actually going to be included in the planning of it's creation, and that you didn't care whether or not we got on board. In the real world we call that lying.

All you had to do was include us in the process. Then when April came around it would have been a sure fire thing to have a new Imperial Remnant faction on the website as, to my count, there were a combined 20+ writers who could have been signed up and on board for this new major faction. Instead you alienated uss by putting forward an idea we were not on board with, and then left us with: "It is this or bust."

Today's comments about not understanding why minor factions cannot be represented on the map game when you've had opportunity and necessary ingredients to submit a new major faction come April are quite shocking, and are very annoying.

I support the peak installation of the Geonosian Empire, long live Ukvax the Bulk.

(Nah but really, single-planet minor faction when, I wanna do a Geonosian minor faction because that stuff is peak).

I absolutely agree with this mostly for the aspect of it allows those going major to see potential interactions with established minors, opening up several avenues for RP purposes.snd gives those who have built something in there little section of the galaxy to stand out without the need of having to go major
 
on like a real note, I don't want single people to have places on the map to play by themselves. I just think having 'levels' to the map could be interesting, because mechanics lead RP'ers by the nose. If we have mechanics for single world sovereign states, we'd probably see some cool rp about it. I don't want something complex, and I'd prefer it be limited to small groups, just things that wouldn't make sense or have the same responsibility as a large scale major. Maybe we'd finally see stuff like the Dathomiri, Chiss, or other groups actually manage to have some rp about them with a low stakes single hex state on the map.
 
I'm being genuine, btw, I know we all read into the subtext of any given line, especially my own, but I would definitely entertain and look into myself expanding the map game if we had a larger contingent of writers, to give people more to enjoy.

But if a FACTION - a faction - leveling up is contingent on going from 3 writers to 5? That's so easy man. The turnover would be so high. We'd be breaking necks at how fast it would happen and the 3 writer faction would just be a joke because of how fast it takes to go to 5.

I would want to see something more like, 5 writers is a Major Faction, 15 Writers is a Super Saiyan Level 4 Faction. And then you add your additional benefits and shit or whatever perks comes with it. But you have to focus on the basics, first.

Going from 3 to 5, I don't think people who support the idea understand how easy that would be. And then the logistics of tracking it? We operate literally in month timetables here, our format is so slow. The turnover would run circles around it and it would become more OOC than IC, and I would hate it everyday.

I already hate it, I do try things I hate (I originally hated the idea of colorful non-transparent postbits), I know I'm not always correct about what idea is good or isn't, but I do know I'm right more often than I'm wrong. Get some more writers on Chaos and we can talk, but for now, until we eclipse the numbers of 2016, I just don't see it being feasible.
