Tried that (albeit on a smaller scale); doesn't work.

It seems much more likely to me tha the idea of conquering the world is what is really a CRB. How does one go from bonking animals on the head with a bone club to thinking about ruling the world? Do you think (1) that he got the idea from his experiences of living in Cantr or (2) that he got that idea from OOC stories and history? I am betting on #2.

Well to my charectors the world is
1.exactly 5 places he visited all and most asleep
2.Eaxctly 3 places only been to one heard about 2 others
3.world is were ever she stole from which is 2 villages in total\

As you can see that not much world to take over and sleepers are so violent these days

Most populated locations have a map of some of the islands, so your char knows it's a large world.

No one individual or group will ever control entire islands as there's always other groups that oppose. Sure they can be wiped out but others always crop up. Plus on top of that, Cantr is rife with plotters and backstabbers. Even if you think someone's on your side, doesn't mean that they won't change your plans to their advantage the moment you're out of town.

Try running one town for a while, and you'll probably get over it. :lol: It's mostly drudgery.

I wish you well on your world domination plans, I however, know the difficulties in leading a group that controls a small region. It is not easy to have active, loyal representitives control a town for you. Imagine all the little towns that have useless resources. No one wants to live there. I'm not trying to smash your dream, I'm just saying you will never rule the world, you will never rule your island, and you'll be lucky to control 3 linked towns at once.

If your characters are working together, that's a Capital Rule Breach.

If they all separately came up with the same idea, that would be a remarkable coincidence.

Am I right in thinking that none of your characters rules even one town yet?

Okay I am getting alot of talk about how the world is to big and to many people are godie goodies. Well all I have to say is that my charies dont know that :P they dont know about all these goverments and what not all they know is their spawn place and the 3 or four places theyve been were their was only a local goverment. Also Chris its okay for multi-charries to come up with the same idea. They only plan to rule not in the same wa,shape or form and they havent even met so how could they work together?

Like....do one who doesn't work right with womans/men near him/her because he's always hitting on them :lol:
and make a crazy one that's really lazy and tries to make everyone do their work for him!
and...and....do one who's really really rude and will probably die because he told the leader of the town to $%#5 off!! :D

Yes, if is an english island, then i have a character on that island, and action is needed. Maybe it will keep the new players from dropping, and the old players still rping.
When you hope for something, you often believe in something. When you believe in something, you often have pride in it. Being proud often leads to a hating of some group.

No, good RP should trump "random dictatorship acquisitional syndrom".
