Unthinkable RPRules and AnnouncementsGetting Started
There are a few ways to make your first land claim in Ukthinkableworld- Claim a piece of white space.
- Request permission to claim a protectorate from another player.
- Request permission to claim a piece of land from other player. This rarely happens, so don't get your hopes up, but won't hurt to ask
You must get your piece of land approved before posting your DoI, but once you get it approved, make an In-Character post in the Declarations of Independence subsection to let others know you're around, and you're all set!
Annexation
To annex, go into the annexation subsection and make a thread. You will need to make a minimum of seven posts for the annexation, and must have some level of resistance to your annexation. There is no time limit for annexations, however the Admins may determine that the annexation has been inactive too long and reset it, however this rarely ever happens. As a general rule, you cannot make an annexation if your nation is less than 1 month (or 1 in-game year) old. Military and War Stats (Provisional)Battle points will go like this. This is only the provisional system until we get something better. 5 points granted automatically 2 points for every 15,000 people in military (Determined by finding 0.05% of your post OpUnthink population) 2 points for superior military supplies (Determined by your tech year. If a tie, these points are omitted) 6 points for superior tactics in the battle (Determined by an unbiased GM) 3 points automatically for being the defender Equation: 5+2x+(2?)+(6?)+(3?)
2* Other Rules- 1 month = 1 IG year
- No harassing
- No crossing the IC/OOC border
- Don't ignore the GMs. We can and will take action.
- Just...don't be an idiot.
The current year is 1951. The maximum tech year is 1913.

Right now here's the rough draft for the Battle Points.
5 points granted automatically
2 points for every 15,000 people in military (Determined by finding 0.05% of your post OpUnthink population)
2 points for superior military supplies (Determined by your tech year. If a tie, these points are omitted)
6 points for superior tactics in the battle (Determined by an unbiased GM)
3 points automatically for being the defender
Equation:
5+2x+(2?)+(6?)+(3?)
2*
*Answer rounded to nearest whole number

We need DoI's before any other IC actions, as a general FYI. I'll be making mine soon.

We also need someone to make us a good, in-depth timeline from WWII to OpUnthink to provide the users with an alternative history. If anyone's up to the task, we'd be very grateful.
Signed,
~Admin Team.

I don't think the battle points are a good idea, come to think of it. They seem far to complicated. Perhaps if we drastically simplified them... But otherwise, we could use a much similar means. Also, does on have to fight battles in order to annex land? It only seems fair...

And I can work on the alternative history.

I need to clarify the calendar system.
The new month starts on the first of the new month.
The old month ends on the last day of every month.

Ok thanks I thought it was just 30 days from the forum start date Well, while I originally planned on that, we really should simplify it to make it easier to remember for people coming in. So while this month is going to be a little wonky, we should get fixed in by December. |

Considering that OpUnthink has resulted in nuclear winter, be aware that the majority of Earth is dark and freezing cold year-round. This is especially so for Europe, North America, and Eurasia.

Indeed. Fortunately, India wasn't hit quite as harshly, but our agricultural sector has definitely taken a beating.

I explained it privately with Abha, but I'll explain it here. For now, in case of a war or battle of some kind, we will be using the points system as a provisional system until an alternative option is brought up, if one is.

You can't post IC about a nation which hasn't DoI'd.

As a quick note, please no posting as a guest. Hopefully soon I will turn the ability to post as a guest off, but I'm away from the computer for a few days.

Since Abha is granting independence to Sri Lanka as of the Paris Referendums, let me detail the rules for puppet states since it appears as though Abha intends to set one up there. To establish a puppet state requires going through the same process as annexation. Substitute everything saying annex in the quote below and put "establish a puppet state:"
"To annex, go into the annexation subsection and make a thread. You will need to make a minimum of seven posts for the annexation, and must have some level of resistance to your annexation. There is no time limit for annexations, however the Admins may determine that the annexation has been inactive too long and reset it, however this rarely ever happens. As a general rule, you cannot make an annexation if your nation is less than 1 month (or 1 in-game year) old."

I didn't think it would be a puppet state. We could all decide what it ends up doing. It's just being held until someone decides they'd like to be Sri Lanka. I guess it would be under my protection, and would probably be allied with me, so I guess its a puppet state?

We call it a puppet state if it is de jure an independent nation of yours, but you RP it or its government is backed by the Indian Commonwealth. But yes, under your description above, that's a de facto puppet state. |

Logs for election procudure, to take effect next month. I'll still manage maintenance of the forum and the map, but most all else will be the gms. I'll put more description in the rules soon.

For all future RPers, please do not use real life (RL) names in the RP.
Also as a general note, the next "election" will be on December 18th.
