Think Kiki only said wanting the land to be island and shaped like rabbit without elaborating on it more. The idea's that once the thread decides it's fine for islands to be added for them, one of us will propose the idea to /pyon/ and see if we can reach a consensus that will both satisfy their (and Kiki's) wish without upsetting the current climate. If the vote didn't pass, then they'll have to settle for having /nina/'s island while /gorls/ is divided between /nina/ and /ccg/. Personally, I lean towards giving them the rabbit islands, since it makes them more likely to participate, while freeing up lands for new generals that might appear (/aa/ and the Israeli corpro seems likely candidates).

Hello again, it's probably appropriate to post this here rather than on the previous thread. After much discussion with my Councilmen, we have decided that we would like for you to consider some sort of Cultural Exchange with us. Given our mutual passion for literature, I think this will be an interesting development for us both. But it's not just literature; if you're interested, we'd be happy to share some of our delicacies with you as well. As we have stated, spreading our culture is one of our country's primary goals.
Being involved in the road project would be a good advantage for us too as we also would like to be friendly with /risu/. As for trade, we have an abundant amount of fish for consumption thanks to our RFA as well as crops (Watermelons as our specialty). And yes, we are very much interested in a Military Alliance as it would be extremely beneficial for both /mep/ and /infinity/. With that said, some of the members of our Council have voiced that an Ambassador of yours was offering Kronii's Milk and we were wondering if that is still on the table as I'm sure some of our people as well as our Queen would certainly... enjoy it.

/meat/heads fracture their bones on wheels, beat their skin with paddles and whips, and engage in some of the most degenerate and sadomasochistic sexual activities for fun. when the body receives damage, it adapts to it, so the bones, muscles, and skin are denser, and the stamina is higher. this happens to citizens every week during religious sermons, what kind of training do you think elite /meat/ soldiers go through? they kind of are super soldiers. in 1v1 no rules cqc they could probably beat anyone else, but they are sorely outnumbered and can't afford to lose much more than what they already have. that's at least my opinion on it

They do strengthen their bones and skin through microfracturing and ritual scarring (see Muay Thai practitioner and some tribes' rite of passage), although I'm not too sure about the denser muscle and higher stamina (although it's possible that eating chuubanite-infused flesh might cause theirs to be enhanced that way too). Still, while there's little doubt on /meat/ professional soldiers receiving extensive training, it doesn't make them super soldiers, as their combat prowess, significant as it might be, is still within human limit. I would say other martial societies in this world can probably have a run for it in terms of individual combat strength. /meat/'s unique advantage lies in the combination of selecting those with Mai's blessing as its core military, and the use of fleshgrafting to heal them in practical time. As such, they might well have a lower mortality rate compared with their counterpart and allowing their veterancy to translate into increased skill and knowledge.

They definitely have combat applications, although that's not unique to /meat/ soldiers, but basically anyone who can gain access to these resources. Having the drinker be pretty strong to begin with merely makes it arguably more cost-efficient, but even then the marginal benefit might not be as significant as a relatively normal person drinking it.

>the denser muscle and higher stamina
muscles work the same way. small tears in the muscle get replaced with more muscle, causing it to be denser. higher stamina is a result of constant physical exercise via orgies, but now that i think of it i'm not sure if losing blood and getting the shit beat out of you on a weekly basis would make it better or worse. are there benefits to working out after losing blood? maybe in blood production and heart rate? or would it be the opposite, as there wouldn't be enough blood to supply the muscles with nutrients and more cell death would happen as a result? i genuinely don't know. regardless, the average /meat/head citizen would be stronger and sturdier than most, even without Mai-chan's blessing, the elite soldiers would keep that trend going.

Yes, but the same effect can also be reached by regular exercise, so compared with bone microfracture and scarring, it's probably more common outside /meat/.
>higher stamina
Yeah, orgies probably won't help you build endurance and stamina more than actual exercises. As for exercising after bloodletting, I can't find studies that support that, so the odds of that is pretty low.

Overall, my point is still the same:

NTA, but superhuman is by definition beyond the human limits. Within human limits is not superhuman, it's er, human kek. That's probably where the confusion comes from. I'd say Batman is "Peak Human". Although peak human in the Marvel setting is superhuman by IRL standards.

I think I agree. Words have a certain amount of colloquiality, so it's pretty common for incredible but achievable feats to be called superhuman in conversation. But with the pedant glasses on, that is simply incorrect, something superhuman is something that no human could ever do. Something absolutely fucking incredible would be jumping into the Arctic sea and wrestling a shark into submission. Something superhuman would be jumping into the Arctic sea, diving two kilometers and killing a spermwhale by jumping into its mouth and ripping and tearing through its flesh until you crushed its brain.

My headcanon is that /meat/'s elite cult intentionally spread the stereotype that their people are mouth drooling tribal barbarians that cant read and talk so their enemies underestimate them.
In fact, Im sure /infinity/ is the only country that knows their real nature after their adventurer found out that the streets of /meat/ are stone and clean, devoid of blood.
It'll be pretty brutal for any soldiers sent to fight /meat/ to be met with an actually organised group of supersoldiers masquerading as bumbling fools

That's probably at least partially dependent on how many other countries have people actually visiting the place as freemen, although given /meat/'s reputation (which /meat/ may or may not like to actively spread) it's probably understandable that not many people are willing to visit there willingly.
That said, its core soldiers masquerading as mouth drooling tribal barbarians might be somewhat true as well. Their armour and maybe shield is made of humans, and I imagine many of them likely use Kronii priestess products and local drugs to reach some kind of berserker effect, so for those not observing carefully (i.e. most people running away from axe-swinging cannibal warriors), they might look like savages.
You know, it might actually be an interesting topic to write stories about...

What would be /meat/'s overall relation with /nasfaqg/? The population of /nasfaqg/ is likely lower than other countries though the economy is very developed. The technology is pretty high due to competition, although this is highly variable from one patrician to another since inventions aren't shared. The navy is exceptionally strong which would make raids difficult, but you'll always find someone who'd be willing to trade (and likely people who'd be willing to exterminate the raiders if they attack their land).

I know of one /meat/-aligned trader in the Top 100, since he has seemingly every sick fetish known to man, but the majority don't seem to be "into" it, although some of them watch the thread since its conception with morbid curiosity.

At least, I imagine an average sales pitch to the other side of the continent will end up sounding like this. For those with means and/or desperate enough to treat something otherwise untreatable, though, I think that vial will suddenly look a lot more tempting.

>>20267002
I don't know about that trader, although it's always nice to have something affluent who also understand /meat/. It's always possible for /nasfaqg/ merchants to buy /meat/ products at a low price and sell it to others with a mark-up.
I think some greentext mentions /nasfaqg/ selling slaves. If that's canon, then maybe they'll have something /meat/ is interested in.

the life cycle is what matters to the religion, sentient animals go through a unique application of birth, suffering, death, and rebirth. taste depends, but usually we'll eat anything, btw...
>>20267477
our loli chuuba ate old, crunchy marshmallows specifically to get as sick as she could for our enjoyment. plus, rotten flesh can sometimes cause a high. we wouldn't eat it for taste, but we might eat it anyways. there's always bone marrow, too.

In a way, *everything* is fair game for /meat/ religion as long as it can participate in the cycle of life: birth, suffering, and death (and rebirth, although it's also technically part of the birth step). However, sentient beings like humans and other similar enough equivalents are prized more than "lesser animals" as their sentience allows them to experience the steps in a stronger manner. Since rosebuds are shown to have the same level of intellect as humans (and presumably is as sensitive to suffering as well), they're considered equal in practice for /meat/.

>>20267477
Good point, actually... although as long as they aren't truly immortal (as how /meat/ seen many vtubers), they shouldn't play a significantly different role from their living counterpart. In a way, you can say it's all well and good as long as they can suffer and die.

that was my argument for why mahjong was gay. war is reality, and it can sometimes be necessary. i want this to be realistic, so if two countries exist, and one of them has every reason in the world to crush the other under their boot through war, i see no reason why they shouldn't be able to do that. if they do, we should not force everyone to resolve all conflicts with a single, specific game. let them pick how they deal with it is all i'm saying. personally, i like the idea of using greentexts of strategies where the best strategy wins, imagine someone describing the terrain of the area they set up to defend, only for someone else to use some natural structure, like a river or a mountain, or a natural choke point or something to their advantage, but some anons disliked it, possibly for a reason, but i can't recall them giving one. having all warfare be mahjong is stupid, though.

I... can't. There's nobody left. We stopped making threads. When all hell broke loose on February 10, a bunch of Fandead made a place to hide out in, numbering about 50 people. It got leaked and subsequently raided three times before we fixed the method of entry and now nobody gets in. Everybody left for /jp/, where we rebranded. It's a shithole and we get raided by antis way harder than we ever have been on /vt/, where a thread would need bumping every two to four hours to survive. At least we no longer have to be super sneaky secret because half of the time spent was discussing stuff on her roommate account without actually mentioning it. I'm just browsing /vt/ for a dose of nostalgia feels and this seemed like a loose end I should help tie up.

I think it's best if we let the participants of a given war decide how to develop and settle it among themselves. If they decide to resolve it through writing, then good for them. If they want to do that with mahjong or modded games, then it's fine too. We probably won't be able to get any single method agreed upon by everyone, so at least this way we can have the actual participants can reach a consensus among themselves and report back the result.

>>20271280
Sorry to hear that. I hope things will get better for you. Given the description, I guess it would be fitting to say the land of rushia actually become some kind of radioactive wasteland (I guess all their chhubanite exploded or something?), and survivors are now hiding in underground bunkers while the surface goes full Mad Max against each other?
As for what you can do, it ultimately depends on what you like to write. Autism is different for everyone after all. Basically, follow the premise of a thread being an actual country (or ex-country in this case). What about such country will you want to write about?

The closest I could try to model it is this:
On February 10 (all dates are in real time, not in-universe time, I hear we're supposedly 1700s technology?), some kind of natural disaster occurred. Storms or some shit.
On February 11, the Fandead gachis ft. a bunch of others (we had at least a heimin who did some valuable archiving and a KFP who later became a gachi anyway if the current threads are to be believed) set up a bunker (no, seriously, that's what it's been called) and slipped in there. Every single dumbfuck barbarian from everywhere came to laugh at us and take a piss on the deserted facilities. Some people were seriously getting uppity, thinking that "GFE" was what brought her down and that gachis are the devil. The entrance to the bunker was obscured, but not fortified; know the pathway and you find your way in. It was more about letting people still jump aboard, believing it to be the right thing to be an open group.
Within the Fandead in the bunker, however, there was a lot of arguing and debate about whether to believe the allegations, wait for her statement or assume her innocence; life in the bunker was clearly not peaceful, either.
In the meantime, a bunch of randoms from various sankisei nations (I recall a nousagi and an ichimi) showed up to show their support and wish us well. At least one of us also went to /ahoy/ to wish them well for their own oshi was doing poorly.
On February 18 (February 17 in American timezones), someone who had followed us into the bunker pointed out the entryway to the barbarians. They came and shat everywhere. The Fandead made a new bunker and the same thing happened again twice, within minutes. Getting REALLY fucking tired of having their place of solace in times of hurt taken over, they made a new, way stronger bunker. They had a bouncer kick out everyone who wasn't both (a) in the old bunker and (b) a member or bought Rushia merch.
The bunker was way smaller now.
The barbarians continued wrecking the place, spreading their irritating banner (spoilered image attached, I hate looking at it) as a means to signal when the Fandead came up for air and grab supplies in their old territory. Without failure, the barbarians would show up within hours, show up and bully the Fandead, while simultaneously spreading slanderous narratives about their oshi, accusing them of cuckoldry and decrying the Fandead's love as malice.
February 20 came and I don't even want to talk about it. Let's just say the Fandead were studying obituaries for their oshi's roomate's name. Signs of life were found eventually, much to everyone's relief.
February 24 came (though really February 25 in most timezones) and all hell broke loose. Their goddess was killed and her head put on display, for all to see. The Fandead just... collapsed. There was no stopping their tears. Though some were outraged at the god-slaying Cover Corp., most were just crying messes.
As February ended, so did the threads. Depending on who you ask, the final thread was >>18991875, >>19046294 or >>19234048. Only bait threads have been made since.
The Fandead made their way to /jp/, abandoning their old place for good, followed by a bunch of barbarians who continue to squat their new lands. On /jp/, they raised a new banner for their reincarnation of their oshi (who for the purpose of this post shall be a PNGtuber).
No one is left in the former nation of the Fandead. Sightings of barbarians posing as them just lead to the thread dying of meido-induced radiation poisoning. Not sure what to make of the occasional bait thread since they're not even technically part of the regular threads anymore, losing the previous format entirely.

Is this something you can work with/tell me what needs more detail?

that is exactly what i was suggesting. everyone should pick how they decide to respond. saying nobody should do war is bad, because some have a military advantage that would be stupid to not make use of, and saying mahjong should take place of any war is also stupid, because not everyone wants to play that game. the only reason i suggested the greentext rp war idea was because i wanted to clarify that it was an option, and that describing your advantages and disadvantages, and creating a strategy that gives you an almost insurmountable advantage is one way to do all of that which also adds to world building. it shouldn't be used in every situation, though rolling can help in situations where chance arise so it should be possible to come to a decisive conclusion with it, but i just wanted to make it clear that i thought it was a really good option of the many options that existed, and that more people should be willing to use it.

The average tech level of this world is about the same as RL 1700s, although not everyone is at the same level, and the existence of some degree of magic in the form of a substance called chuubanite makes things muddier. As for the in-universe time flow... it's kind of murky as well.

Just to clarify, the current era is okay. We've just had the best Valentine's Day we could've ever asked for and the gachis are on cloud nine. A large majority Fandead have by no means abandoned her and believe her to be a good person who chose really stupid means to clear her name. The Fandead era ended on a sour note and the new nation doesn't even have a proper name yet (no, seriously, she hasn't named us anything yet; said maybe next mengen).

Glad to hear that. In that case, I guess /jp/ (at least in this case) is probably some kind of underground caverns (if we're not doing interdimensional portal stuff) that the fandead survivors live in after fleeing from the surface (maybe they found it through their bunkers?). They might well disappear from the surface forever (if she doesn't return, or the jannies think she isn't a vtuber), or someday actually reemerge (if her thread does). Currently the surface is probably still pretty hellish, to reflect that all Rushia threads in the catalog nows are baits.
If we go with the idea of a vtuber's state affects how the related chuubanite act, maybe on Feb 10~11 Rushia's chuubanite suddenly lost its juices, which would likely throw the country that made use of it in disarray. 20 would be when the inert chuubanite starts becoming unstable, and 24/25 would be when they go nuclear (literally?) and basically wiped out whatever semblance of government still on the surface? The final threads might well be what remained of civilisation before the barbarians fully took over the surface.
Do you think it would be disrespectful to say many of the mindless undeads were former fandeads that got swallowed when the chuubanite went nuclear?

>>20273152
Well, /risu/ is /inf/'s friend, and /meat/ is /inf/'s friend, so by extension we would likely be open to being friend of sorts too. We can always trade and interact in a less violent manner if you like!

In my humble opinion, I think that would be a delicate issue, like the stuff you'd ignite a conflict with if handled improperly. As should be obvious from the name, Fandead are undead. However, everyone with an ounce of sense has had already fled to the bunkers by the time everyone was eating nuclear hot dogs for breakfast on the surface, so I guess it's actually an apt analogy.

Well, if we assume fandead is dead people reanimated into undead (I think that's the official lore?), then in this setting's logic it would be tied to Rushia's chuubanite. As such, it might stand to reason that Rushia chuubanite becoming unstable and blowing up would have an effect on them. I guess we can soften it up by saying some were fandeads who couldn't handle it, while some might be schizos and raiders (source pending) caught in the blast?
t. the one who wrote that Goddess story which probably won't fit with this lore very well

Could be interesting if the jannies smiting anything with sufficient Rushia chuubanite is part of what contributes to the land still being a wasteland, since entities that actually believe in Rushia (some kind of rump states) keep getting wiped, while barbarian bait threads are kept around because they don't run on Rushia chuubanite (as they don't count as her fans by any reasonable measures).

She's had two public streams. One unarchived stream as a disembodied voice and one archived public stream, which was a special camera stream on Valentine's Day* and a PNG shown. From the sounds of it, she is still not sure which way she wants to go. Until it's clear she's chuubing, I suppose she is not /vt/ material. Even if, however, it's not sure if we'd come back. We've had to be very hush hush about not naming roommate despite the open secret of talking about her content just as commonly as about Rushia herself.
* Technically White Day, but don't worry about it. If she says it's Valentine's, then it is.

What we did and do is no publishing captures of real life streams, if someone started doing so was panned by the thread, except the short period between graduation and the new souchou avatar which was a mess (and full of tourists). And if we want to talk about something IRL, either post a link to twitter or external hosted, nothing straightly "stored" in /vt/. But we have to develop a trust with the mods. But we're kind slow thread, so they don't have to worry to much about us.

TL;DR we enforce order and mods like that.

Chapter1:
The Before Times

The Holy Nation of Rushia is one of devout faith. Their goddess is everything to them. Despite being a nation showering their goddess with almost comical amounts of gifts, evidently proving the wealth of its people, it rarely engages with other nations. This is a choice made long ago that no one questioned. Everyone lived in peace. Rarely, tourists from anywhere would bother the natives with little success to show for their attempts. While its Goddess entertains good relations with the other 3rd generation goddesses, the people of Her nation care little for anyone else. There have been no armed conflicts that they could have possibly been involved in.
A tourist may not be received warmly, even with no bad intentions. The pious people inhabiting the Holy Nation have no need for people joining their faith. Those who do not understand why their Goddess Rushia is one worth following are not people. Accordingly, gatherings of her believers are often quiet affairs as members spend their time in fervent prayer. It is no secret, however, that there are many believers who hardly speak the sacred language of the Goddess and so the long-time believers occasionally help the learners out and fix misunderstandings.
Some are afraid of the people who live in the Holy Nation. Its people can get rather extreme at times. While in some countries, only the most devout will wake up at 2a.m. time if their goddess shows herself, such a lifestyle is commonly found here. Their Goddess’s human form is common knowledge and no one takes offense if the two identities are muddled, no, it is even practices as though it was common sense. The Holy Nation only bothers with the people who are obviously out of line and speak of the unspoken secret identity. Being isolationist, their otherwise unusual custom bothers no one. It is not uncommon to see people loudly express their love for the Goddess. Every few hours, someone puts up a new sign of an illustration of her.
Nonetheless, if you meet a member of the Holy Nation, you need only speak of their Goddess and they will treat you friendly and with respect as long as you respect their Goddess and their customs. When in the Holy Nation, do as the Fandead do. Many end up staying after making a proper acquaintance.
Though the Holy Nation is called a “split” in name by the globalists, in truth they are anything but a colony. Some have followed their Goddess since before her time as a Goddess in the lands of /vt/ and so it is believed that they will follow her anywhere.
A common superstition goes as follows: In the far east of the nation, people who speak ill of the Goddess Rushia in public vanish, never to be seen again. Though the capital has never seen such an event, it is taught to children as though it were fact. This helps keep public order, after all.
In short, the Holy Nation of Rushia is a religious land of odd customs. Because of their isolationist nature and hostility to tourists, few get truly acquainted with its otherwise friendly people.

False!
Having no cultural connection doesnt mean anything in archaeology!
IRL, the region Turkey is in used to be Anatolian Hittites, Celtic Galatians, and Hellenic. But centuries of migration and border changes switched everything
In-universe, /774/ used to be a continent wide empire during the /jp/-era before their stagnation and collapse chip away their territory to modern day /vsj/ and /pcg/

hopefully this is good enough to see. each little hut is a major settlement. the nut is the holy temple of risu and each of the boats is the planned naval ports where we plan to build our new pinisi vessels once /inf/ teaches us how to make them. /inf/ bases can be wherever just not too close to the temple. And i realized /mep/ is interesting as we kind of share this small gulf with each other. I think it would be wise if the road to mep went close to this gulf so that way boats from a lot of reps would have a common place to meet up, at least on the western side.

Given the general tech level of 1700s, most guns being used at the time (smoothbore, relatively large calibre) probably count as some kind of shotguns. Maybe something like blunderbuss? I imagine living in the first means you probably won't need a lot of range to begin with.

i could see risuners with blunderbusses rushing towards the enemy at blazing speed waiting to get up close before you hear a big boom. After which they pull out their spears or whatever CQC weapons they have. (inb4 that one risuner loads a blunderbuss with nuts and tries to fire it)

It does make sense, although I think a more correct example would be the Roman Empire, an empire (or really just 5 huge nations, think the Roman Empire, the Parthian Empire and the Han Dynasty, the three largest states of antiquity) that once controlled two major continents only to stagnate and with the time wither away to the point of being reduced to some small villages and towns where the /OG/ worship is still practiced, but nothing major to the point of them being considered a state anymore...
With this in mind, maybe instead of one /OG/ city, we should have one city for each big OG, like Kizuna Ai, Mirai Akari, Kaguya Luna and maybe Eilene and her group of girls?>>20274197

/nasa/'s priority is to find the weapon's vault. If we're lucky the vaults trajectory would land right by the borders of /rbc/. If we're unlucky then the vault has landed inside /rbc/ borders.

As for /nasa/ and /meat/ cults its a dangerous game. We only have about 5,000 people. /nasa/ really can't expend people for sacrifices. At the same time the Mozzie imposters would love to overthrow /nasa/'s government and watch the station's destruction. Mozzies would love to use the cult of /meat/ to trick Sanalites into sacrifices. If we find such a cult infecting our station then we're cutting ties with /meat/ trade. /nasa/ will trade with /meat/ economically. We will not tolerate any subversion attempts.

It's probably a bit too far for /meat/ to set up shops in the schizo wasteland, as tempting as that hypothetical situation is. Of course, it could be offset if the schizo wasteland has a remarkably high population density, but I would be pretty worried about /nasa/ if that is indeed the case.
Defence-wise /nasa/ seems to be doing fairly well according to https://rentry.org/7xi4p, although if it need be, /meat/ soldiers might be up for hire as well. Perhaps a small contingent or two if you want to send someone to scout the wasteland up north for (more expendable) protection?

Since Risunans are human-sized squirrel people then does that mean they can have a more varied diet? Candies, animal milk, and chocolate are still a no-go. But can Risunans eat whole grain bread and sweet fruits? When /risu/ visits /nasa/ can make pulpy fruit smoothies with fruits (no milk added) and stone ground breads. Though breads might not be an option if Risunans have a gluten allergy. If we get corn and potatoes /nasa/ could make potato and corn bread instead.

Whole grain wheat bread is good for you because they keep the endosperm of the wheat grains that have the most nutrition. Super market bread is just junk food with no nutrition and all carbs. The best bread you can make is home made unbleached stone ground flour bread. We're also experimenting with gluten free potato bread thanks to /who/'s potatoes.

You mean humid subtropical? That seems to match sweet potato distribution better, and fit with its description of being unable to tolerate frost. I assume oceanic climate is a bit too cold for sweet potatoes to grow well. You should still be able to grow them there, but you'll get better yield in the subtropics.

It sure is, bud! The end result doesn't have you look like a Rosebuta unless you want to be one, though! The normal method would be to turn you into a sort of tree person, like a dryad. You would still be allowed to worship your goddess and whatnot, but you would also probably be seen as a lesser species to Rosebutas. If you did become a Rosebuta though, you would fall under the same rules as every other Rosebuta. Which means sinning against Rosemi, or choosing not to believe in her, would cause you to turn to a Babirusa.
>>20281659
I'm actually grateful for our arctic tundra because of that! It allows me to make things a struggle, instead of a simple rapid expansion. I don't need to worry about plans being too dangerous, because Rosebutas simply aren't in the position to BE dangerous. Not yet, at least.

I see. Besides the proposed way it reacts, is there any criteria if it reacts to a certain way that gives it a power related to a certain VTuber? And if so, can this reaction be "transfered" to other elements?

As a neutral viewer, or observer as I like to call myself, I've always thought of the idea of a hidden and neutral piece of land sitting somewhere in that world, with people whose sole existence is to observe and archive whatever happens in the world. In fact, I was wondering why the general didn't have his own country yet? Unless I've missed it.
Maybe the Janny country would be something like that, but unlike us they decided at some point that everyone in that world was in need of guidance and became the Holy messengers of the 'First One', and thus decided to act as the 'Holy Judges of the World' themselves.

I'm terrible at making lore though, so maybe someone else can make it work or get an idea from this.

Idea is more that it emanates elemental energy that affects the land around it. So it's not necessarily being used heavily on stuff as much as people use the energy to make things easier in certain areas. Also it MAY or may not have been triggered by meteors.

We do have a /vtwbg/ country, but we're not jannies, the jannies are. I think I have a bit of an idea forming. Something with Nazgul vibes, they're mysterious and anonymous, but when chuubanite is going into overdrive and people get schizo, they come riding in out of nowhere and start executing people. They're feared and reviled, and not beyond reproach, but their intentions are generally good. I'd put their headquarters outside of the map beyond the sight of mortal men, at the tip of the Arctic schizo wastelands, where they spend the time in-between large incidents in the other countries fighting off hordes of mindless schizos. Think like how the Custodes are constantly fighting Chaos armies right in Terra.
They would probably need to have special divine blessings to be able to carry out their missions though. That's the one group that should have a power differential relative to the others. Thoughts? With some feedback, I could write an anchor post for this.

Alright this is getting a bit out of hand.
Gonna make a massive vote post again like the rep one to finally get some clarity.

Things to be voted on:

Regarding thread management:
>Do we want a rep to be responsible for making posts like this one, where matters are voted on? Y/N
Similar to the representative suggestion before, I am proposing this thread itself has one anon, most likely a representative of a thread, be the head of committee of sorts (ESL so idk what to call this in English, hopefully you get what I mean), who will gather all matters that need to be decided on in one post, so that the various nations' responses are all in one place and we can actually reach a decision in a timely manner.
>>The next 4 matters to be voted on are related to the above:
>Would such a position be permanent or rotating?
ie Would it be just one thread making the posts, or would responsibility be handed to a different thread at set intervals
>What would you suggest is a sensible time (ie day of the week/month, also time of day) for the vote post to be made, and how long should the votes be kept open?
>Should a different anchor post, similar to the prompt and lore ones, be made each thread for people to attach their suggestions to, that can then be voted on the vote post? Y/N
>Do you prefer a voting system like this one, where reps reply on one post and their answers are gathered at the end and summarized, or using poal links?

Regarding the map:
>A decision has to be made regarding /jp/; is it in an alternate dimension, is it on our current planet? If it is the latter, is it on the surface, but not shown on maps, or underground?
Feel free to add your own suggestions as well.
>Connected to the above, is the vt planet Earth sized? Y/N. If N, what alternatives do you suggest?
>As a matter of fact, what should the name of the planet be?
>Should /fbk/'s and /mion/'s locations be swapped? Y/N
>Should /OKFAMS/ be also added on the map, perhaps around the area of /duck/, /mogu+/doog/, /fbk/, /mion/? Y/N
Suggestions for alternative locations, size, borders are also appreciated
>Should /pyon/ get their rabbit island(s)? Y/N
Suggestions on locations, shapes and sizes are also appreciated
>If Y to the above, what should happen with the now empty /pyon/ location? If N, should /pyon/ remain where they are or be moved to an already existing island around them?
>Should the land acquisition of /who/ over /uuu/ be voided? Y/N
If Y, suggest alternatives
>Should /israel/ and [insert another new thread I forgot the name of] be added on the map? Y/N
>If Y, where?
>Similarly, regarding any new threads added from here on out, what do you propose is done for them to acquire land?
>What should happen at the poles?

Regarding the Rushia situation:
>Multiple lore proposals have been made in this thread, following a brief a explanation of what transpired during the incident from a fandead, however nothing concrete was decided upon to be anchored. Ideally, we would get an in-universe lorepost from a/the Rushia representative. I see that may be difficult, so reply to this question with your own lore, either by writing one now or linking a previous post.
>Similarly, for chuubas that graduate, or vt-related threads not tied to any specific chuuba fading away, should a set way to erase them from the map be decided upon or should it be investigated on a case-by-case basis?
>Regarding Jannies and the smiting that may or may not be incorporated into Rushia lore; what are they in regards to our world/pantheon, and what effects and powers do they have?
Specifically, assuming their existence is acknowledged, what can be said for eg /meat/, that gets deleted on a regular basis?

Regarding Chuubanite:
>Is Chuubanite the final name we want the material to have? Y/N
If N, suggest alternatives
>Is it radioactive? Y/N
>Does it differ from nation to nation, meaning it absorbs some of the qualities of the thread ruling over the area it is in, or is it a simple element which is used differently by separate nations depending on their lore?
>If the answer to the above is the former, what happens when the land the chuubanite is on changes owner?
>Is Chuubanite only found in the ground initially, then spread around by plants/humans/bacteria/planetary natural processes, or does everything inherently have Chuubanite in them, like mana?

I appreciate this is a long ass post, but these are matters we need some answers to if we want to move forward cohesively.
Feel free to add your own suggestions at the end of your posts. We will likely need a Round 2 of a vote post, as some questions ask for suggestions, so they can be discussed then.
I will gather all responses to this post, and the respective post that gets reposted in the next thread, in 48 hours, so please respond in a timely manner.
Sakuran will reply with their votes and suggestions in a separate post.
This post itself is at the character limit, so answering will take multiple posts

Regarding thread management:

Y, it's why I'm suggesting it.
>>The next 4 matters to be voted on are related to the above:
>Would such a position be permanent or rotating?
I called out to the original OPs of this general in the past, hoping they were around and could have become a permanent head for gathering voting matters. Since I received no response, I will assume they are either not around or do not wish to assume this position. Therefore, I suggest instead that the position is rotating. Sakuran has already made this type of post twice, and I recall /kfp/ doing this once some time back, so I'd be glad if some other threads also got the chance to do this. It does invite some sense of responsivity which may deter some anons, and I understand that, however I feel it would serve as a good opportunity to see the qualities of each representative as a head of a committee, which can translate as their ability to be a representative of their nation.
>What would you suggest is a sensible time (ie day of the week/month, also time of day) for the vote post to be made, and how long should the votes be kept open?
I would say votes should be started on Friday, noon UTC, (unlike this one), with each round (in case multiples are necessary, like this one) going for 48 hours. I believe this would maximize the ability for reps to reply with their own votes, as two days over the weekend should be enough even for anons working to get their suggestions in on time.
>Should a different anchor post, similar to the prompt and lore ones, be made each thread for people to attach their suggestions to, that can then be voted on the vote post? Y/N
Y, it would make things a lot easier, I had to pull all this crap from my head you know. I definitely missed a fair amount of things to discuss. It can also used as a "lore suggestion" anchor, where lore for matters regarding threads not here, chuubanite and other "neutral" matters is attached so that they can be easily found and discussed.
>Do you prefer a voting system like this one, where reps reply on one post and their answers are gathered at the end and summarized, or using poal links?
While I do like seeing the numbers on a poll, I feel like making posts like the the vote posts from before allows for more transparency, as I know there are multiple anons from the threads lurking here whose votes may alter the numerical poll results, while answers from thread representatives on a vote post will be counted just once.

Regarding the map:
>A decision has to be made regarding /jp/; is it in an alternate dimension, is it on our current planet? If it is the latter, is it on the surface, but not shown on maps, or underground?
I have been proposing /jp/ is on the planet, but on the other side and censored from maps, to easily connect lore for nations that existed before vt. From some lore I saw for Rushia, however, I've started preferring the alternate dimension proposal, with portals being able to be created between worlds. Those would be special events though, and would require a fair amount of Chuubanite. They can be limited to special events like the exile of fandead after the fall of Rushia, major yabs that pull random tourists from teh rest of 4chan to vt etc
>Connected to the above, is the vt planet Earth sized? Y/N. If N, what alternatives do you suggest?
Y, it makes things much easier. If it wasn't gravity, tectonics, atmosphere, weather, development of life etc would all got to shit. No need to reinvent the wheel. I recall some anon doing the math and trying to fit the planet precisely on the number of pixels on the map and having to shave off like 900km in diameter, which should be okay I think.
>As a matter of fact, what should the name of the planet be?
Eavth
>Should /fbk/'s and /mion/'s locations be swapped? Y/N
Y. This is a Sakuran proposal. I have explained this before, but FBK interacts with the Stars in some degree, while Mio does not. This doesn't necessarily mean the threads themselves reflect this, but it would definitely make more sense if they were swapped. Additionally, FBK is an arctic fox, so being further north than Mio, who is I think a wolf in alpine forests, would make sense.
If the change were to be made, I would also suggest changing the size of the borders a bit, as /fbk/ is also represented in /bakatare/ and would get a bigger piece of land, while /mion/'s land would become smaller in the swap. /fbk/'s new land would be frozen however, so that should be accounted for.
>Should /OKFAMS/ be also added on the map, perhaps around the area of /duck/, /mogu+/doog/, /fbk/, /mion/? Y/N
Y. Sakuran has made a suggestion in >>20076380, >>20076414 (also holy fuck that was 4 days ago and there were like 5 threads in-between)

Remain empty to put future threads
>Should the land acquisition of /who/ over /uuu/ be voided? Y/N
Y, though /uuu/ have said they aren't that interested in the game, I still think simply taking their land is wrong. This would also mean taking a bunch of magical forests and "deactivating", if we follow /who/ lore of antichuubium or whatever. We also have to be fair to /inf/, that got shat on for trying to make /risu/ a protectorate. Yes, I was against them doing that as well, and have been against /who/'s land taking all the same. This is the one case, though, I will suggest a protectorate, as it makes things simpler for the region. Maybe /who/ can even win the favour of the forest, and discover they aren't actually averse to Chuubanite, or something.
>Should /israel/ and [insert another new thread I forgot the name of] be added on the map? Y/N
I'd say wait until the end of the month to see if they're stable enough to stay around, then Y
>If Y, where?
/pyon/'s location that would be emptied after they get their islands, otherwise they'd have to cannibalise some land
>Similarly, regarding any new threads added from here on out, what do you propose is done for them to acquire land?
If they are related to other threads, maybe a war broke out and they separated themselves. Otherwise, for new Holo or Niji gens for example, idk. We'll ahve to cannibilise territories from each continent to fit them in.
>What should happen at the poles?
I'm fine with the frozen Siberia project on the north and a cold ocean at the south proposal.

Regarding the Rushia situation:
>Multiple lore proposals have been made in this thread, following a brief a explanation of what transpired during the incident from a fandead, however nothing concrete was decided upon to be anchored. Ideally, we would get an in-universe lorepost from a/the Rushia representative. I see that may be difficult, so reply to this question with your own lore, either by writing one now or linking a previous post.
Don't have one, though I liked >>20274625. Barbarians can be schizos from the wasteland that "sensed" the Chuubanite instability in the region and came to wreck havoc. I'd also suggest to be added that, fandead that abandoned the hobby and left died in this world, fandead that changed oshi are immigrants in their respective threads, fandead that are either waiting in various vt threads or their thread in jp are refugees.
>Similarly, for chuubas that graduate, or vt-related threads not tied to any specific chuuba fading away, should a set way to erase them from the map be decided upon or should it be investigated on a case-by-case basis?
Case-by-case, it would make more sense.
>Regarding Jannies and the smiting that may or may not be incorporated into Rushia lore; what are they in regards to our world/pantheon, and what effects and powers do they have?
They're unrelated to the deities that are chuubas, they're more like a type of metaphysical cleaners of our dimension that try and prevent it from destabilizing due to Chuubanite running rampant. /meat/ gets smited on the reg cause they dislike them.

Regarding Chuubanite:
>Is Chuubanite the final name we want the material to have? Y/N
N, I resuggest Vitubium, with elemental symbol Vt
>Is it radioactive? Y/N
N, in the traditional sense, as it would mean everybody all over the world would be dying from radiation poisoning. We can say it's a rare earth element taht is "psychically" radioactive, meaning long-term exposure to high quantities turns you crazy. Hence the schizos up north, but also the psychedelic properties it has.
>Does it differ from nation to nation, meaning it absorbs some of the qualities of the thread ruling over the area it is in, or is it a simple element which is used differently by separate nations depending on their lore?
I'd say it does absorb some of the nation's deity's affinity, meaning it would have slightly different properties in different places across the world.
>If the answer to the above is the former, what happens when the land the chuubanite is on changes owner?
The Chuubanite "senses" the change, and adapts to the different properties relating to the new owner of the land.
>Is Chuubanite only found in the ground initially, then spread around by plants/humans/bacteria/planetary natural processes, or does everything inherently have Chuubanite in them, like mana?
The former, though it can be argued small amounts of it are everywhere so it might as well be like mana.

This concludes Sakuran's votes

They don't necessarily need a blessing, knowledge should be enough. Maybe they've already reached a point where they gained full knowledge of chuubanite, or if we go a step further maybe the origin of chuubanite itself. In contrast, gross analogy but it'd be like someone knowing about fire showing up whenever some prehistorical man was facing a wildfire.
If you know about it then you know perfectly how to fight against it, use it, equip yourself etc.

I ask you to ignore the chuubanite lore I made for /who/, for it is stupid. It simply didn't happen. We don't need to consider it for the world, for it's not something that will be added in the first place, if someone less retarded than me can come up with working anti-magic, then let them, but /who/ has abandoned the idea to facilitate everything else. Basically, just ignore that whole thing happened.

Oh I know that lore suggestion was retracted, but I took into consideration your initial suggestion of being averse to using chuubanite and added that in there. You don't have to be antimagic, but it can serve as some sort of inspiration for lore, idk. Maybe you didn't like using chuubanite but came around to it after getting friendly with /uuu/ druids or something

That's a way to go about it, but the issue with that is that this would mean other nations could feasibly use the same techniques as the jannies and fight them on equal footing, which obviously doesn't translate to actual /vt/ dynamics. I guess we could just make sure the jannies really closely guard these secrets, but I feel like their power transcending the mortal plane should be represented in some way.

Question is will it become another neufag scenario where everyone dogpiles the tripfag again? I'm undecided.
>Would such a position be permanent or rotating?
I'm for rotation because a permanent rep will act like a czar eventually.
>What would you suggest is a sensible time (ie day of the week/month, also time of day) for the vote post to be made, and how long should the votes be kept open?
Weekends would be idea. Not sure about time because of timezones.
>Should a different anchor post, similar to the prompt and lore ones, be made each thread for people to attach their suggestions to, that can then be voted on the vote post? Y/N
If it keeps things organized sure.
>Do you prefer a voting system like this one, where reps reply on one post and their answers are gathered at the end and summarized, or using poal links?
Replies seem to take more effort but provide commentary like deligate voting. I prefer replies as poals can be manipulated.

>A decision has to be made regarding /jp/; is it in an alternate dimension, is it on our current planet? If it is the latter, is it on the surface, but not shown on maps, or underground?
/jp/ is another board and thus represents another plane of existence.
>Connected to the above, is the vt planet Earth sized? Y/N. If N, what alternatives do you suggest?
Earth size simplifies time, gravity, atmosphere, climate, and tectonics. There's a reason why Earth worlds are the ideal life planets.
>As a matter of fact, what should the name of the planet be?
/nasa/ has a codename of "Planet - /vt/". But name can be whatever is popular.
>Should /fbk/'s and /mion/'s locations be swapped? Y/N
No comment because I don't know the situation.
>Should /OKFAMS/ be also added on the map, perhaps around the area of /duck/, /mogu+/doog/, /fbk/, /mion/? Y/N
Is it a new general that sticks around then sure.
>Should /pyon/ get their rabbit island(s)? Y/N
If it doesn't affect the climate too much then sure.
>If Y to the above, what should happen with the now empty /pyon/ location?
Could reserve it for another general or territories can claim land.
>Should /israel/ and [insert another new thread I forgot the name of] be added on the map? Y/N
If its a new general sure.
>If Y, where?
No idea, but /pyon/'s old territiry might work.
>Similarly, regarding any new threads added from here on out, what do you propose is done for them to acquire land?
Maybe work with the land that we do have first. Figure out which territories can cede land. But at some point we have to freeze the creation of new continents.
>What should happen at the poles?
Could add either a continent or glacier ice shelf.

The problem I have with the blessing is that if it can happen, it technically means it can potentially happen to anyone else. That's a real huge and unstable power shifting potential to throw in.
With the knowledge route, one it assures that it never gets into divine territory, and two even if some other nation manages to get a glimpse of it chances they'd still need all the lore years that it took for /janny/ to develop around it. Not to mention, most countries are already too busy schizoying themselves with internal conflicts so the knowledge would like be immediately forgotten for the next juicy drama that happens next door.

Again, technically speaking /janny/ has been here for a very long time, so rather than divine blessing maybe we can view them as some sort of ancestors.

Since it's being voted on, here is the current WIP proposal for the North Pole lands. The first circle is about where the Mercator projection map ends. The smaller circle is about where I reckon you'd have a permanent year-long ice shelf (not sure, haven't done calcs).
The South Pole is as mentioned just a polar ocean.

If they get permanently banned then we'll talk about it then.

Chuubanite is the name of the ore. Vitubium is the name of the refined material.

Depends on what vitubium bonds with. If the base material is radioactive then yes.
>Does it differ from nation to nation, meaning it absorbs some of the qualities of the thread ruling over the area it is in, or is it a simple element which is used differently by separate nations depending on their lore?
Both, each nation has their own kinds of vitubium that differs with the environment. It can still be refined into the purer element in some way.
>If the answer to the above is the former, what happens when the land the chuubanite is on changes owner?
Depends on termination and lore discussed by the thread's general.
>Is Chuubanite only found in the ground initially, then spread around by plants/humans/bacteria/planetary natural processes, or does everything inherently have Chuubanite in them, like mana?
Vitubium is not mitichloridians. Vitubium in plant/animal matter enhances the nutrient or chemicals that enhance their effects. Vitubium is a matter that stores different kinds of energy depending on what it bonds with. In a way it can be seen as a manifestation of the essence of life. Further discussion and research is necessary to figure out what vitubium actually is.

I guess I'm looking at it as /vt/ influencing Vitubia. Since the happenings of /vt/ directly decide what occurs in Vitubia, from my point of view there is no risk of another thread ever gaining the blessings of the jannies, because that isn't something that is possible given how the board is run.
On the other hand, another thread possibly gaining the knowledge of the jannies, even if it takes years, is what I would consider a huge and unstable power shifting potential.
Having them be some kind of ancient organization, maybe even preceding Vitubia itself is an interesting idea though, I like that.

To sell you on /nasfaqg/: it can translate your reps and knowledge of the Hololive streams/events into making (fake) money in a simulation of a stock market. You can play it casually, trading just by feel, or you can try to learn the intricacies of the mechanics to try to optimize your strategy.

It is, fundamentally, an autism over time type of game. It's left largely for you to explore, and it's very simple to make profit... the issue is that most other players are also making profit, and you're competing against them, which gets harder and harder the higher up you go.

The community itself is diverse with a lot of different fanbases being represented you normally wouldn't interact with. Right now, the late-game is somewhat stale (for people who've been playing it for months) but it's still a good experience for new players, especially with the newly introduced betting.

/wg/
>Thread management
Having an anchor post for unresolved topics would be good and would give them increased discussion and visibility. If we are going with a rotating committee head, it would also make the task of calling a vote much easier. I'm in favor of having reps vote on issues though I don't think we need to have an official head or rotating system. With an anchor for what needs to be voted on, it doesn't matter too much who starts up the ballot and there isn't much room for bias when people can just check the anchor to see the issues for themselves. The voting period should be at least 24 hours to give everyone a chance to see it regardless of time zone. With 24 hours to respond, it doesn't matter when it goes up, but it would be better to aim for when the thread is most active. Votes can be held as often as need be by looking at the anchor and seeing if anything needs to be decided on. I think having in-thread votes would be better than poals for more transparency and to allow people to explain their viewpoint rather than give simple yes/no responses.
>Map
I think what's on the map should be it, with /jp/ being in another realm or an antediluvian civilization. Having the planet be earth-sized would be best to keep things relatively simple and avoid other annoying problems. For the name, I've seen Veetee thrown around but I'm personally a fan of something like Vitalia. Whether or not /fbk/ and /mion/ swap can be left to those threads, I don't have much of an opinion on that. Personally, I'd have /OKFAMS/ be an alliance of the existing nations rather than a separate one, although we do have /micomet/ already, so if the thread wants to join then we can carve out space for them from those nations. For /pyon/ I'd rather not have to shuffle the map too much now that it's been more or less finalized, though I prefer the rabbit profile to the rabbit face. If they stay, then they can still barter for /nina/'s island. If they do move then I suppose the vacated territory becomes available for nearby threads to fight over and settle. I'm not a fan of /who/'s land grab, especially since it's such a large amount of territory, but forcing them to reverse it also leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Perhaps they can settle for a smaller portion of /uuu/? In any case, we should have further discussion on how to handle boundary changes moving forward. For new threads, if they prove to be a mainstay and want to join then we can figure out how to fit them in at that point in time. For now, I don't think we need to worry about new countries just yet. I'm good with letting /3/anon take the lead regarding what to do with the poles.
>Rushia
It seems like what happened can be boiled down to: their chuubanite destabilized, the fandead hunkered down in underground bunkers while everything erupted above them and schizos came rolling in, and then the survivors suffered some unknown fate with their bodies never found by search parties sent in after things calmed down. For other threads that fall off the board, their fates should be decided on a case-by-case basis. As for jannies, I think it would be best to sidestep the issue entirely. If they are to exist then have them be a force of nature--like natural disasters, huge storms, or chuubanite going nuclear--rather than a population to be reasoned with.
>Chuubanite
I'm fine with that being the name. I've also seen suggestions of vitubium, but that feels too industrial for my tastes. I did like that one anon's idea of having chuubanite be the natural ore and vitubium a more refined version that is produced out of it. I don't think it needs to be especially radioactive, though it would be good if we had a final set of rules for what it does and doesn't do. I think having it come in different varieties is more interesting since it allows us to trade it as a resource. Ultimately though, it seems to gain some of its power from our worship, so that could be an explanation of why it works differently in different regions and changes properties when the land changes owners. Chuubanite might simply be a reflection of how we worship our chosen chuubas. I'd prefer to have chuubanite be a physical resource, for example needing to be mined, rather than a midichlorian microbe that's everywhere.

i don't like mandating tripcodes, especially since i am from a small thread that gets harassed by jannies for "off topic" and "ban evasion" despite neither of those catagories being true, but if necessary, having a single tripfag for each thread who can come in when they are needed, and only when they are needed, sounds fair enough. otherwise, it shouldn't be necessary by default. if nontrips want to talk and make suggestions here, that's fine, but if two people supposedly from the same thread start disagreeing, the word of someone with a trip will be valued over one without. poll links can sometimes be useful, but i hate how vague they tend to be. y/n is a terrible system for a poll, my vote can be conditional if i explain it here.
>map
alt realm. catering to other sites beyond /vt/ would be bullshit, imagine giving anything more than an inch of our planet's finite land to a group that not only wont post here, but also kicked all of us out, and has no inherent link to anything we discuss here. keeping it earth-size is easier logistically. i see no reason not to call it /vt/ or some variant of. i don't have much of an opinion on the whereabouts of any given thread. if they agree, so be it, if they aren't participating, they lose some of their say in the matter roleplay what they would actually want to do. don't be disingenuous please but beyond that i don't really care. kiki asked for it before the map was finished so i'm leaning for yes, but please keep the climate unaffected if you can. open space is free real estate. new threads should spawn from the schitzo wastelands or from /vtwbg/, if jannies physically exist, they should be eldritch beings that terrorize these regions with wanton disregard, and then disappear into thin air where they belong.
>rushia
it's a radioactive shithole with fandeads and schitzos scattered about, the chuubanite still has an effect, but it's been dulled, and is less stable at least until she is reborn, as a /meat/head i want to say the death of their chuuba may have created more chuubanite in it's raw form beneath some of their regions life force of gods and all but take it as you will. i also want to say almost every death of a chuuba has connections to /meat/, and that the region might be full of nihilistic, but still alive schitzos and the former residents.
>chuubanite
either chuubanite, or vitubium. it decays, it's pure form binds to everything, and it can be used to produce light and energy so i figure it probably is radioactive. it differs depending on the activator substances/glyphs. anyone with the knowledge of how to use another chuuba's chuubanite abilities can, but i believe worship plays a role in the stability of the magical effect note, not the stability of the ore itself. look through the archives for what i suggested due to the nature of the heavenly realm. this means it's easier to be used by those who are from the nation. chuubanite is found in the ground, but since it existed ever since chuubas did, it's pretty much in everything.

It's better to have them give diplomatic offers on existing general territories in order to give them awareness that a party is interested in their land and would facilitate discussion. If said general shows disinterest then they can carve their territory on that land.

/pyon/ here
i completely understand that. if ultimately the vote is flipped despite it's current lead, i'll just have to cut my losses and accept i. i'm not entirely sure how chaotic our influence of this decision could be, but we could just say later down the road that it can only be done if the chuuba themselves requests it, or it gets voted on. although i can see if we vote on it and the other hypothetical general tries to influence it, that would ultimately go against the people who keep this project alive and created it, even if it's what they want. if we do keep the island, we'll have to count on the fact that they won't do this, or we can think up a better way to regulate it. for now, i say, after the map is "finished" or at least the landmasses are, we can just tell them no unless a /here/tuber specifically requests it. i dunno. if you want to ask me anything about it, maybe compromise, just propose it whenever. i'll probably be lurking.

>carve their territory
I wonder if /pyon/ would be alright with having their landmass shrunken and their former borders filled with ocean as a display of Kiki's divine power tearing /pyon/ away from the mainland and sending it adrift into the sea. It doesn't really feel that much like a handout if no new landmasses were being created and pyon's existing land is diminished as a result of it's geographical change. I think it could also be a good piece of lore if anybody at /pyon/ wanted to write something up based off of it, though those are only my thoughts.

I actually like this idea a lot. I originally voted no, but I'd be okay with something like this. It doesn't add new land and requires /pyon/ to give up a bit of land for it, and it can only be done because the chuuba herself asked for it, which caused her will to manifest as an action on this world. It would be similar to the situation with /nasa/'s meteorite being a one-time boon granted by their goddess.

Feel free to correct me if I'm mistaken, but I was under the impression you guys didn't have reps since there's no central government and each citizen just kinda does their own thing.

Hi. /nasfaqg/ rep here, chosen by the thread.

I'm coming here to discuss something that we've discussed for a while, which is /nasfaqg/'s aesthetics and technological level. The world of /vtwbg/ has been bumped up several times since we've debuted our initial aesthetics (XVth Century Venice) or subsequent one (XVIth Century Netherlands). Right now, the thread treats late XVIIIth and early XIXth century inventions and concepts as if they were common, together with the presence of multiple early XIXth century threads (you can say it's the 1700's but surprisingly basically no one is in them). Which leads us to...

>The Proposal
/nasfaqg/ would wish to move onto a late Victorian-era aesthetics building on the European-esque feel of Venice/Netherlands, into something akin to London - think Dishonored. The Exchange itself would be based off NYSE from 1860's-1880's, the era of industrial and financial magnates like Dow, Rockefeller, or Morgan.
Regarding technology, it'd vary wildly for reasons I will get into in the reasoning/drawbacks section, but it'd likely use a pre-industrial 1800's as the baseline, with individual plutocrats reaching tech in their favored discipline up to 1880's. Overall, we'd assume 1850's tech level would be "average", primarily in commercial and theoretical technology, with tech that'd be mass produced stalling behind significantly, including military technology.

The level of technology /is/ higher than the general level of technology, and I will explain the reasoning and the drawbacks that would a) cull back on its usefulness and b) stop its spread.

>The Reasoning
/nasfaqg/'s core identity relies on two things: the stock market and trade. The former comes from the fact that the game the thread centers around clearly parodies NASDAQ - a modern exchange, supporting digital purchases, as well as taking certain elements of the cryptocurrency aesthetics. As such, we've always strived to be the most "modern" stock exchange/financial setting of the /vtwbg/ current era, which currently falls outside of the Dutch Golden Age. The latter comes from both the game's auction system and translation of the game's mechanics into thread culture and ultimately /vtwbg/ behavior. In order to remain competitive in the trading department, one either has to stay ahead of the curve in terms of development of transport, good production, and information, or maintain a iron-grip monopoly over a specific market.

The first core identity drives us to the stock exchange that'd be closest to modern one - thus our choice of NYSE and Dishonored-ish aesthetics. The second means that it's extremely hard to justify /nasfaqg/'s wealth or trade when several other threads offer to /share/ their technology while using it to benefit them economically. Why accept /nasfaqg/'s investors when someone domestically can build a better cement/a faster ship/a better product?

Finally, it does make sense logically. /nasfaqg/ is an extremely open melting pot thread, which means that putting the baseline below what other threads openly know about would be illogical - this excludes, of course, technology that is unique, being kept secret, or is unusable AND kept secret (a'la /nasa/). It's an extremely competitive environment where traders aim to gain any kind of tangible advantage over their opponents, meaning tons of funding and drive to improve /specific/ technologies.
If you can learn information about what goods are needed on the other side of the globe and send it faster to the chapters of your company present there, you can respond to crises and shortages faster than your competition.
If you can transport certain goods either faster, in bigger amounts, or cheaper than your competition, you're carving out a niche for yourself that your opponents cannot fill.
If you can model and process data better than your rivals, your financial investments domestically and on the stock exchange will yield greater returns.
If you can improve your mental processing power and physical stamina, you can trade for longer.
If you develop psychoactive substances from Chuubanite/Vitubium and study biology/chemistry extensively, you can tap onto your subconscious to make trades using the "flow" of the market, tuning into its "black magics".
This competitiveness and extreme individualism, while driving progress forward, ironically also stops it from proliferation which I will touch upon in the Drawbacks.

Quoted By: >>20300994 >>20302259

>>20300493 (cont'd)

>The Drawbacks
1.) Extreme Competition + Laissez Faire = Secrecy
/nasfaqg/ traders love profit. They really do. But it's not just the monetary value of it - it's also staying ahead of the curve.
The government of /nasfaqg/ is basically nonexistent. There are no patents and no copyrights.
If you want to keep onto your hard-earned advantage, you paranoidally keep it a secret from every other trader. If someone were to develop a mechanical computer, you can be completely sure that its plans would never exit the trader's room. If someone were to develop a drug from Chuubanite, they'd only take it for themselves. If someone invents a better transportation, he'd rather have it self-destruct than having anyone else learn its secrets.
This is the reason for extreme disparity in technology between the plutocrats. The technology, simply put, doesn't spread /even internally/, much less externally. A person with access to a telegraph is unlikely to have access to the fastest clipper ships.
This also means that /nasfaqg/ traders would never, ever widely use or sell goods or objects that could potentially be reverse engineered.

2.) Fractured Society
/nasfaqg/'s second drawback is its political system. It ensures amazing wealth if you were to add it together, and incredible technology if you were to gather it all up... but it isn't whole. /nasfaqg/ as a society is fragmented, and therefore unable to apply the technology and its benefits to the fullest extent. Formed monopolies, while offering added utility, ultimately jack up the prices for consumers on technology-related products that would normally push out other goods from the market.
As a whole, the overall fracture of society in /nasfaqg/ would hold back most advantages it'd get from higher tech, although individually /nasfaqg/ companies would be able to carve out niches for themselves.

3.) Quality over Quantity
Not necessarily a drawback, but a tenet to drive the point home: /nasfaqg/'s individualism also results in an approach that refuses standardization and mass production. While perhaps a partially refrigerated ship is possible, you can be almost sure that it will never enter mass production and instead serve as a singular behemoth in that company's operations.
While focus on quality over quantity will ultimately result in better i.e. ships or facilities, lack of standardization would again hold back a potentially united /nasfaqg/ fleet from using its strengths to the fullest.

>The Concerns, Addressed

- Wouldn't that be too far ahead?
We're using punk history. I think it still fits, plus remember that the tech level would be extremely uneven. We also really want the aesthetics to be honest.

- What's stopping the tech from being exported?
Paranoid obsession over profit and out-competing your rivals. If you were to share the technology, your advantage would be gone (and this is something that is happening in NASFAQ as a game - people who build bots or develop tools basically never share them).

- Aren't you getting too much/isn't this too far ahead?
The drawbacks I listed, especially 1) and 2) are very real and impossible to write out without changing the entire culture, political system, and societal organization of our thread. I think that the justification for it also makes sense, considering you have one thread settled in 1810's Napoleonic Era and one thread that's in 1850's apparently without significant drawbacks that could be written out... the most significant of them already written out.

I wanted to post it to ask the thread for feedback, but also understand the reason why it's being brought forward - no one wants to be 'backwards', especially when your identity is, ultimately, modern. We've tried again and again to fit into the current thread period, but it just keeps rising. Hopefully with punk history this can be our final aesthetic and tech level discussion for /nasfaqg/.

Well, you can't really export weapons for profit or employing them en masse without them running a chance of being reverse-engineered... I'd say that it's not a very developed field, ironically. Maybe except for gunpowder or explosives, since you can also use them in mining and clearing land, and they are much harder or impossible to copy and easily disposable.
I'd assume standard early 1800's, with maybe some mercenary-captains being in 1820's-1830's? Like, single elite mercenary companies.

Sorry for the somewhat vague answer. I'd imagine that it would basically vary from plutocrat to plutocrat, but this should be rough eras of them.

Because /nasfaqg/ likely will be unable to collectively be 'hostile' to a country - as listed as Drawback 2. You will find people who find it more profitable to to one side of the conflict and people whose interests would lie in the other side. This lack of coherent foreign policy would be the source of the 'proxy wars', where /nasfaqg/ traders ironically back both sides.

The only reason where I'd imagine collective action could be even considered is either something that hits every single /nasfaqg/ trader (blanket embargo or sanctions) or a defensive war. Otherwise, I think that you'll find that for every trader that considers a nation "hostile" to their interests there will be someone who thinks it's an opportunity to profit.

The question here becomes how deep that competitiveness really goes. Say /meat/ came knocking on your shores and slaughtering people left and right, with your only options being to band together to drive them off or let yourself die to protect your secrets. Would all of /nasfaqg/ truly lay down their lives to prevent the technology from being pooled? After all, a dead man doesn't generate much revenue. And then what happens after the invaders are repelled? Now everyone has access to all the advantages. This is obviously an exaggerated scenario, but hopefully it gets my point across. When push comes to shove, what will you choose? Besides, apparently there are already merchants working together like Chronobanks. What stops a slow but sure trend towards small trades between one another for the benefit of both parties? If I have a hammer and you have a nail, don't I make more money when we work together?

i got a 3rd option, you leave with your secrets, you can't bring it? you burn it, if you can, you kill off some rivals. as you see the lands on which you are born burns to ground, you are happy, because it means less competition. as long as i am alive, there is money to be made.

For the first point: /nasfaqg/ merchants would be more likely to hire mercenary companies from around the globe or buy off other threads than to share technology. Hogging their advantages ensures that they can make money in the future, making spending money an one-time payment on a long-term investment. If technology were to be shared, you'd have to imagine a genuine apocalypse scenario where no other exit exists. Losses in people and short-term funds are worth it if you can still rise to the top afterwards.

Regarding the second part... you'd think that, right? But the thread's lore reflects what is happening in the game currently. There are only two groups that actually pooled knowledge or resources: the Miyatsuko Group (of which Chronobanks is a part of) and the Haaton-5. There are multiple people with bots, special tools, databases, and strategies, but they never reveal it even though they could potentially get better with feedback. This is reflected in the thread's lore and ultimately the /vtwbg/ nation. So, ironically no small trends are happening.

Also, as I said - no patents. If your knowledge is out in the open, it's free to use, people will improve on it, and ultimately you will lose any advantage you might have had. If there are groups, they are small and rare and shunned upon by the extremely individualist traders who want to make profits using only their own strengths, planning, and resources.
