I voted Far East. I've never played on the Colonies so I wasn't going to judge that continent and all the othershave brought me far more enjoyment over the years. Maybe I've just had the wrong experiences on FE but even if they'd had been better the map with it's small amount of huge regions is a turn off too.

I will go wit EC too.
The place is actually a big mess and will only be funny again when the big realms get destroyed. IMO.
Never was at the Colonies, and only one time at Atamara, with a advy that was in jail next day he arrived. I didnt know what to do with him so abandoned him there. He is frozen there since ever.
FEI was ok but boring. I love Dwillight and Beluaterra.

Atamara sucks. EC is boring, but at least there are wars and there isn't a political gridlock.

I'm on Atamara now in a position of some power.

It's extraordinarily dull.

Atamara sucks! There is no scope for advancement in most realms and the political intrugue is plain boring.
Just stay alive and kicking, raise your voice when its needed. Through reason you can show the mistakes of others, something violence can't do.

I don't break rules, I bend them- a lot.

Atamara is not the place for diplomats and those interested in playing the political game right now. It is a place for the strat gamers and order followers who like the big battles.

Once something breaks, either the MiCE or Darka, things will get more interesting for the diplomats.
If at first you don't succeed, don't take up skydiving.

Dwilight.

I've been all around it, in all sorts of position and it has always been boring as heck. Various things have shaped it so there's little room for interesting wars. Part of that is just how the map is laid out, part of it is how realms have shaped up and how a certain religion has spread.

If you've been all around it, how can SA have prevented you from having any fun?

Because SA is by definition unfun and anti-fun, obviously.
