Questions to everyone
Serpenteye: Are my population figures on the megapost correct? Or should I double them as suggested? Could you make rulings on populations for areas where no official populations are given? Could you make population rulings on the Solistarim and Empire of the Yuan-Ti? Also, do you see any glaring errors or omissions in my work?
To everyone: Could you check your roster, and correct me on any errors, and give me any additional information you want put in?
To ALL the Elven Players: Do you wish me to put more of the elven background (a massive amount of which was posted on this thread under sblocks) in your roster descriptions?
To the Elven Players again: You listed all those forests. Are any of you claiming any of them. If so, could you ask Serpenteye for population figures? Does anyone else want to claim those forests?
Demon Athiest: Are you there?
Gnomeworks: Are you playing?
Mr. Draco: Should I delete Mr. Draco from the roster?
To everyone:
Celadon Forest and the Knights of Luna now seem to be contested powers.
Who are they going to?
Is anyone claiming Greyhawk and Dyvers?
Is anyone claiming the Grandwood? The Lone Heath? These are outposts of Good in the general evil of Aerdi.
Is anyone claiming the ruined land of Medegia? The ruined land of Almor?
What is the status on the Lordship of the Isles and the Hold of the Sea Princes? Who holds them?
Is anyone claiming the Good nation of Ratik? The neutral barbarian nations (the Frost, Snow, and Ice Barbarians.)
To Airwhale and Zelda: I have I have removed Dyvers and Greyhawk from your claims, and given you Irongate, to the loss of Nac Mac Feegle.
To William: Based on Serpenteye's ruling, I put the Forlorn Forest, Barrens, and Rovers of the Barrens into Rikandur's hands. Serpenteye is wondering if you are willing to relinquish additional territories to Rikandur.
To Venus: Is Orcreich an advanced nation of intelligent, progressive orcs? Or is it a nation of just regular hordes of orcs? What are Upper and Lower Khanate like? What kinds of populations are we talking about here?
To Xael: Your power is too small, in my opinion, based on the escalation of power strength since claims began. Serpenteye can look at this and verify it, or repudiate it. I strongly recommend you seize one of the major nations off-map.
To Venus: I need a description of Upper and Lower Khanate. Serpenteye, I need rulings on the populations of these western nations.
To Forsaken One: I need a ruling on your population. Considering the nature of trolls, I'm betting your population is huge. Also, since this is a druidical troll/sahuagin nation, I hope you'll give a background for your power. It looks exotic and very interesting.
To Rikandur: Ivid is as crazy as people say he is. He thinks the Empire of Aerdi is still completely intact. To say otherwise is treason, and he will condemn you to the Endless Death, or worse, on the spot. Needless to say, Rauxes is quite a funhouse these days.
To Thomas: Your power is too small, considering the power escalation going on. Serpenteye can confirm or repudiate this. I strongly recommend you seize one of the large western nations off-map.
To Paxus: Are you going to claim any of the off-map mountain regions? There are plenty and to spare. Of course, if you do, you will cause no end of grief to certain people!
To Nac Mac Feegle: Unless your psionicists are much stronger than anyone thinks, you are underpowered, and in the same boat as Thomas, above.
To Melkor: Again, Ivid just got awarded to someone else. I had you with Ivid. Do you wish to relinquish your claim to Ivid, or hold onto him?
To Knight Otu: Can you give me a description of the Cult of Ashardalon?
To James: I need Serpenteye to rule on your population.
To Guilty Puppy: Remember that the Scarlet Brotherhood forcibly recruited a MASSIVE number of Hempmonalander natives, built MASSIVE fleets, and readied them for war. That was 20 years ago, too. They've had 20 years to grab additional massive numbers of Hempmonalanders, and to build more massive fleets.
To Eluvan: I would recommend claiming the small forests (such as the Axewood) in and around Keoland.
To Devilish: So you have both Acererak AND the Solistarim ... mercy on us all! (be afraid, folks. Be VERY, VERY, VERY afraid.)
To Creamsteak: You are placing a claim on ALL the illithid of Oerth? (excluding those specifically attached to a power, like those in the Solistarim.) Serpenteye, is this claim granted? What is Creamsteak's population count for his power?
To Bugbear: The Elven Players have talked about all those forests. You have numerous forests in your area. Are you claiming any of them?
To Anabstercorian: The power inflation has left you underpowered, unless the secrets of Castle Maure are truly vast. I would consider claiming another nation, but considering your power, I don't know what I'd do. My regrets.
