This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Greentongue;791286I like that map. It seems highly populated. Is it mostly human settlements and mostly peaceful?

Mostly human, but not peaceful. the northern eastern section was overrun by horse barbarians a 100 years ago reaching down to and including Eastgate. The previously dominant culture has a successor kingdom on the western peninsula centered around Medris.

The value of the project in its setting management. So it worth a risk for that. I have a good feeling about the view of the maps with countries showing over the geography.

It feeling like the choice I made about Tabletop Forge a web based VTT. Tabletop Forge didn't pan out but Roll20 did. In the end Tabletop Forge was folded into Roll20 and everybody was happy.

Worldspinner I think has a shot at leveraging the Internet to make something interesting. But I don't have enough info to say whether it will be another Roll20 or a bust.

The Magic 8-ball says the Future is Cloudy but the signs are favorable.

Five worlds only for paid-up subscribers? And they graciously tell you that you can print small size maps "for free" at home, but for larger files you will have to use their POD service rather than being able to create large pdfs to print at your printer of choice? Pass.
You can shake your fists at the sky. You can do a rain dance. You can ignore the clouds completely. But none of them move the clouds.

Yeah. Gamers can quality control pretty much anything into oblivion.
