By the way, I wanted to start as well in Ikalak with Evi etc, but if this is going to be a tyranny, I will not join at all maybe.
I am against this procedure actually that already found majorities can determine a whole continent here.
Especially since some people are not on forums at all...but oh well, i can say I have 9 people then who will join Ikalak if and if.
About the Theocracy, I find it useless to have a Theocracy on an Island where religions are not allowed. A Tyranny in Sandalak would be better therefore.
I may also say that the tyranny form was the one who won the WI most times. Why killing then something that has worked?
RP was of course always part of WI, but as something voluntary and which evolved naturally, not something determined from the start.
I may also concur here with Fleugs, giving so much weight to RP from the start will also encourage players who are schemers to bring their gameplay to WI.
