Hi everybody,
Welcome to the public OOC discussion of ‘what the bleep to do with Icicle Isle’. I have no clue how to work it out IC before January 15th, which is our new, extended deadline due to the holiday season (thanks officers!), so here we are. I’ve DM’ed everyone individually but that’s not helping for a group discussion, and we probably all want to know everybody’s opinions.
@[Officials are being tagged so they can keep track of this if they want to.
Nerine is the ruling kingdom in the North which means either Icicle Isle can be a Territory or it could be a herd (like Taiga, which is more or less a free-zone for everyone, but with one leader responsible for the well-being of the people living there).
This probably depends on who gets to lead it? Or could be part of the negotiation process?
Long story short, there’s a few options I’d like to put out here for leaderships/combinations so everyone can consider. Everything seems to have some downside for me in one way or another, so feel free to react, reject, propose other things and I’ll try to keep this main post up to date.
Suggestions:
A. Leilan proposes Jesper to rule because he is more ‘neutral’ (and diplomatic) than him and perhaps the others can accept him instead. For me this would kinda be giving up on the whole thing, but so far it is the best solution IC that I could think of. Or Jesper as an addition to Leilan, in co-ruling, idk if that would make Phasus feel secure/happy?
B. Phasus&Leilan try to co-rule (idk how exactly that would work, yet? Probably badly) and I don’t know if Nerine would accept this. To be honest I’d prefer stability over something that could easily ’explode’ IC at a later date so this is a big MAYBE on my part, but I wanted to put it out there nonetheless so as not to skip it immediately.
C. ^could also be Jesper&Phasus, that may or may not be better
C2. All three -> I foresee constant bickering there
D. If Cam returns fully and Set does not, then probably Cam&Leilan could co-rule like they originally planned because Phasus is simply outnumbered, or Jesper&Cam. But this is heavily based on speculations of activity and I can’t estimate if both or one of you can return and be active, that’s for you to decide. It could also be an explosive situation IC, which at this point I kinda want to avoid.
E. If Set returns fully and Camomila does not, Set should probably strike a deal with Breckin considering she leads Nerine, because I didn’t get the idea that he likes Leilan but let me know if I’m mistaken. Depending on the outcome of that, could be a tense situation or a more stable/neutral one. inactive so far
F. We can let the officers decide like they planned to do.
G. We can post an IC vote (deadline to respond Sunday the 13th so we can count and decide if it’s herd/territory before the deadline).
H. Or an OOC poll for other players, much like with COTY voting. rejected
In all cases, it could be helpful if we could provide the reasons OOC and/or IC why we’re (still) in the running? Idk if you want to though, I don’t think at this point that we absolutely need to since we have discussed this IC before, but maybe this could be helpful to outsiders reading this thing. I don’t mind either way.
If there’s any concerns about this thread or this post or if you have additions/ideas, I promise that I won’t bite (I live overseas so it’s too much effort to fly over anyway). Please just PM me. Please tag me if I need to update this post with a new idea or scratch something.
Love, and thanks for considering,
Vanilla
