Well you're the guild's pirate king, old habit and all.

You get the idea though. Intentionally setting off a chain of a events that force both sides to get more and more hostile, despite both wanting to hold back on battling it out, so that basically, they end up spilling over into the neutral areas, and when they do, the terrorists in the area try whatever they can to get them to engage each other so that they can profit off the whole affair, etc.

That would also cause the neutral worlds to be priority targets, because when it all escalates, both sides race for getting them to join their side instead of the enemy's.

I think I'll start off on my own when the time comes.

]My characters and ghost planet. I'm fixing it to work out better.

I never said I was dropping out of the RP. Just clearing this up, an FYI.

You sure made it sound like you were dropping out.
Regardless, you can make your system, but it most likely won't be available just yet.
As for your FU, see the 1st Page.
I'm discussing this already with Nelo,

And I figured, but that works out to my end very nicely.

Hey K, what would you think of becoming a martial artist instead of a Jedi/Dark Jedi. rofl

But otherwise, I agree with Steller. Why the sudden, massive drop in systems? Its not exactly too cramped, but it is certainly pushing us all into a conflict. Everyone is going to be point and center when the bombs start going off.
Its getting restrictive, this rp is.



I dont see a problem with this, I just want to know why, and when exactly you plan on "adding more in later". Because later is always quite far away.

Restrictive? You weren't around when we first did roleplays. It was one planet, and only one planet, no if ands or buts. The fact is that this isn't exactly restrictive at all. We're creating five, six systems, each with a multitude of planets. And I bet that half the characters never even visit the planets created. So what's with all the bitching about things that nobody is going to use?

By the way, there's 15 planets, and 12 characters. and yet, we're goign to add even more fanon material to keep track of? I'm not even counting magma balls and asteroid rings. I'm just talking planets.

Perhaps a better question is "What is not currently in this sector that you can't live without". Because as far as I can tell, there isn't a need to flesh out more systems. Creating more planets is fine, but if we're doing it just to do it, it's wasting time and effort.

Most of the people here weren't around. I'm not saying I had a problem with it, I was asking why.

I can only visit one system the way this is now, how many times do I have to say it! Plus its a system no one else can go... That's not an RP thats a jail cell!

Thats a good point, Stellar, Ek, and Rodyn cant leave their respective systems.

The majority of the players are neutral, but they actually have a side to stick with, thus basically left to role playing with themselves, unles others interact with them.

Steller, weren't you talking about joining the SDF or SR though?

I doubt he'll say anything that we haven't already discussed.

I'd be helping catch Cale in the final stages of the RP... which would probably mean I'd be stuck doing nothing for the first 100 pages the way this is going.

...This is infuriating. Hell me and Cale alone created nearly a dozen systems for this RP anticipating uses for each of them, now all we're using is what? 2 of them.

Plus I know Cale is already going to break this rule within the first two pages. He's using that black hole system. So give up on this... it's not going to work, people will go where they want in the sector.

Plus what smuggler is just going to be running cargo in one system? Thats insane and 100% guarantee of being caught. They can see you take off and land.

you just answered your own question.
And its restrictive because people can't handle freedom.

No I'm not. You said it yourself that the Pit is uninhabitable.

There's six systems at most.
You don't understand the politics of contraband, otherwise you'd realize that no system is safe from a good smuggler. Soldiers are always aquiring things the quartermaster can't get for them, and the laws on Silphium are quite restrictive, meaning that someone who can ship it without having to pay for it will make a killing.

Who is buying? I know we got sources for contraband at Celtros and the shadow port, but we have no buyers.

The sector base for the Empire has imperial personnel, no politicians to bribe or galacticly knowledgeable citizenry to demand such goods. So aside from light demand from the imperial garrison themselves there's no one to sell to on my planet.

The only other buyer I see is Cellana, but if you're taking off from Celtros and heading toward Cellana I'd be money the local system patrol is going to demand an inspection of your ship.

So what will the smugglers do, run from Cellana to the shadowport and back again? I can't interdict that, it's neutral space, and wouldn't bouncing between two party/black ports mark them as known smugglers?

I said polar orbits are impossible round the pit, normal orbits are fine. The X-ray emissions are directed out the north and south poles, any ship in between those poles is completely unaffected.

Look, people. Its not that hard to understand.
At most there will be six star systems to explore and act out in.
As the RP continues, there will be more systems added until we flesh out the system.
Each system contains multiple worlds and locations. We dont need to make an entire galaxy because people will not need one. As Nelo said, most of those involved won't need a huge number of worlds because they won't visit all of them.
