User blog:Flamefang/Nation RP Poll

Brief Overview
As you probably don't know, I've been in the process of making a working nation roleplay over the past year or so despite numerous delays, cancellations, and other problems. I used to participate in this form of roleplay, and despite my long period of activity here, still prefer it to the kind practiced here simply because it opens more doors and possibilities like actual gain or loss for a player. Nation roleplay is more complicated than what we do here, but that complexity makes it more interesting and more involved for everyone participating. Don't be turned off by that, though, because whatever does come of this project, it'll certainly be watered down for a more general audience.

I've designed this quick poll to get an idea of what people might like to see were I to proceed with this project. Please create a comment with answers to each question, and there's no need to be any more in-depth than you want to be. One word answers will certainly suffice, but I'd always like to see some elaboration. Most of these have to do with world building, as in the kind of nature of world the rp would be taking place in has. Others may have to do with complexity, or other things. Your opinions will be highly valued, I assure you.

Thanks for helping out! ~ Flamefang (talk) 04:59, May 31, 2013 (UTC)

Poll

 * 1) Would you prefer that the world has Magic or No Magic?
 * 2) If Magic, would you prefer lots of magic or little magic. In other words, many people can use magic or just a few.
 * 3) What technological period? Ancient, Medieval or Renaissance? (Nothing modern or future, these are difficult)
 * 4) Would you prefer multiple races, or just humans?
 * 5) If multiple races, what kinds?
 * 6) Would you prefer to be able to control individual characters?
 * 7) If so, describe how.
 * 8) Would you prefer to have control over your battles, or would you prefer simple dice rolls?
 * 9) Would you prefer to have lots of control over your economy, or little control?
 * 10) Would you like to be able to advance technologically?
 * 11) If so, how elaborate would you like such an aspect to be?
 * 12) How many users do you think you would want to participate? (Think carefully about this one)

Extras

 * If you'd like more information about Nation Roleplaying, feel free to send me an IM or approach me in chat. I'm always willing to talk, especially about this subject.
 * For those interested, here's an example of a nearly finished nation in an unfinished and abandoned Forum Nation RP. This nation was my own, and never saw the light of day, so elements of it might make an appearance in our final product. This example is highly detailed, much more so than most are, and the amount of detail a user wants to put into their nation is entirely their choice within reasonable limits. (Link!)
