What happens if you're banned from all the sinkers and CTE?

by **Ikania** » Sat Nov 22, 2014 1:57 pm

Title says it all. I'm banned from Lazarus, and I was wondering: what would happen if I somehow managed to piss off Balder and Osiris, then CTE? Do bans reset if I revive my nation? Do I just get transported to the Rejected Realms? Or does it act like normal until I leave, after which I can't come back?

I believe you go to TRR, but I'm not quite sure. Now I know what to try with some raider puppets of mine...

Huh... I've never thought about that before...

My guess is that it resets. I think when you CTE you are clear from all ban lists, but I'm not quite certain.

Shows you can still revive while being banned.

Thinking on that note...

If a nation is Banned by Mod from creating new regions, and is perma-banned from every possible region, what then? Where could they go other than TRR? Does the game cope with that?

I would test it, but I don't want to create a bajillion temporary regions, plus it's likely to be a bit tricky to get every Mod, Admin and every region in existence to agree to being roped into such experiments... :lol2:

Not a tool in our arsenal. Mores the pity.

Time to invade Lazarus again :twisted:

As a regional founder, nations I banned that CTE are automatically removed from the ban Los unfortunately. Kind of stupid result that needs to be addressed.

That's a very good question. I think you'd go to TRR since I'm pretty sure the Delegate can't ban anyone there.

That's right - TRR is the only eject/ban free region in NS. After all, if someone was ejected/banned/banjected from TRR, they wouldn't have anywhere to go!

follow the link tano posted for the answer. Everyone else in this topic is just guessing.

Entering a region via refound does not check the banlist. You can be banned from only one sinker, but you will still have a 1/3rd chance of refounding in that Sinker. We saw this occur when the imperials lost control of Lazarus, they let the former delegate who was banned cease to exist, and they got lucky enough that it refounded in Laz past the ban (even though she was not banned in Osiris or Balder to my knowledge). The hope was they'd have to spend the influence to ban her twice.

We tested this in Lazarus, for security reasons. You just end up in one of the rebirth sinkers, with no trend of favoritism towards a specific one, regardless of the circumstances.

I wonder what would happen here if they had been banned. Like, would the nation show up twice on the banlist?

No. We've tried.

They did, though, give some accommodation by removing influence from regions you did not CTE in, no? So even though you may be able to revive in the region, the chances of being able to stay very long are quite minimal.

Indeed.

What happens if you're banned from all the sinkers and CTE?
