"Along with Norway, Denmark inherited Iceland, Greenland and the Faroe Islands." (pg. 19-20)

Yes, the phrase 'inherited' has been used to describe the development of empires. Spain actually inherited the Netherlands (more specifically, their king did) too.

I suppose we can try and see if it flys with the mods. Did you bring the eight-ball Uni?

Observing Naivetry was co-founder and an important leader of Equilism and member of the region's military, the E-Army,


Um, since when is Nai co-founder of Equilism? I certainly respect Nai, but that region was around long before she was...

That would be where I heard Nai was co-founder, I have no idea obviously, I joined the last days of 08.

Could be wrong, but didn't Nai resurrect Equilism as co-resurrector basically?

On the co-foundership: I believe they indicate with that that Nai has (shared) control over the founder nation of Equilism. This nation originally belonged to the player behind Equility (who was a fellow Dutchie :P ) and nowadays Nai and Westie control the nation.

On the "inherit" bit, I don't see any (legal) problem with that.

Exactly. This point should be clarified though because it reads to me as if she co-founded the region...

Afraid not :lol:

Perhaps simply removing the "co-founder title" or maybe rewording it, though that could be tricky while dodging Rule 4...

Let me start off saying that I support the concept of this resolution: commending Naivetry for a variety of contributions to this game.

However, I do feel we should get it right.
Daynor wrote:Believing Naivetry led the region effectively into a period of higher activity than The Rejected Realms had ever experienced ...


How is this measured? Cause I honestly doubt it is true, if I compare my recollection of what TRR was in 2003-2004.

Back then the regional population of TRR was double of what it is now. See: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=72928
More importantly, the invasion/defense game was alive and kicking with TRR playing an important part. Kandarin was actively maintaining relations with many key players throughout the game, and the RRA was fully participating in daily defenses. With invaders (and on occasion defenders too) kicked to TRR it was a continuous center of activity, not just as a region in and of itself, but also of lots of interregional activity.

"than TRR had experienced in years"?

You're probably spot on actually, I forget I missed the golden age. :(

Yep, that's a good modification.
