Hello everyone. Thought i'd make a thread to announce my presence here and whatnot
:) In case you're wondering my name, it's the english translation for "Suur-Uusimaa" which is the name of the nation i intend to use in RP (Uusimaa is a Finnish province in which i live), and i originally chose Finnish name instead of English one because at the time i didn't really think that i'd use the nation in English language NS regions :) (if me using "Suur-Uusimaa" for "Greater Newland" isn't okay, an admin can feel free to change my name to "Suur-Uusimaa") Anyway, i'm a Finnish guy who's been playing NS for about a year or so now, most of it in Finnish regions of Pelit and Suomi, but for about five months or so in Europe region as well. I like biking, history, science fiction, heavy metal music and roleplaying :) |

Well welcome to Q102
:) Good to have you here. Your name did confuse me for a minute anyway
;) We have no problem with you using the Finnish name at all as most of the names here are imaginary. I'll let another Admin work out what to do about it as I am just saying hello :D Please feel free to join in anywhere you like on the forum. |

Well, what i meant was that i'm going to call Suur-Uusimaa Greater Newland in RPing, and such. Oh, and thanks for welcome. :) I'm a fan of Battletech and Mechwarrior games, and you'll probably see that in some aspects of my RPing. No worries though, no mechs ( ;) ), only references to Battletech chars, organizations, etc. :P |

Well it's good to have someone join so soon after arriving. Did you ever play the paper Battletech games or are you younger than that? Myself I am also a history fan, we have at least one other person here into cycling and quite a fe RPers already. You should ask for a place on the map to get you going, Not sure how soon it will get done as our cartographer is away for a couple of weeks. |

No, i haven't played the paper ones, but don't know whether it's because of age or general backwater-ness of Finland. :unsure: Oh, a question:Is the NS population used in RPs here or are there some kinds of special rules in effect? |

We use NS populations and NStracker/NSEconomy data for economies. With big nations it is nice if you can come up with a RP reason for the sudden arrival of so many people, but not a requirement. :) |

well we do ask all nations to register using their nations name, but lol, you have kinda done that. However I do think we need a little clarity, so if its O.K with you could we alter it to either Suur Greater Newland or Uusimaa Greater Newland? That way its a compromise. How about that? Anyway welcome to Q102, its very nice to have you here indeed! I hope you do get involved in the RPing here, its always very inyteresting and feel free to start your own threads aswell. ;) |

Well if that it is necessary, it can be done. I shall invent some IC:ly justifiable explanation for why a nation with various ethnic groups and cultures has a Finnish name...maybe a ruling noble famile is Finnish in culture. :) |

You can always say your nation's language bears a remarkable similarity to Finnish ;) My nation's language is strangely like Greek :D |

I dont think we need totally alter the name, afterall, this is just a translation, hopwever nev ifd you specifically ewant it changed we can do that too, I dont mind either way. |
