New Nation: Kooluk Empire

[Acheron]

Congratulations to you ELC on this honor, I wish you the best of luck with your flourishing nation. I'm really curious which direction you will take the culture that I know so little of.

I know that this is closed to chit chat and only for volunteers for Kooluk but I too am curious about the region names. I know not all of those are from the game so what was some of the inspiration for them?

EDIT: O, right. Somehow that escaped my mind. I really need to play Tactics like nowishly. Than I will be informed, like yall two.

[Vextor]

They are all from the game.

[KoRnholio]

'The game' benig Rhapsodia, not Suikoden IV.

[SurfRune]

I want to join woof!

It's still legit because the 15 member quota has not been met. However, Surfrune is way too new.

[Elc]

Actually, Kooluk didn't receive 15 volunteers and Sars did confirm that the free transfer is still valid until we hit that magic number. Only 9 people, save SurfRune, have volunteered and been transfered to Kooluk, therefore there are 6 positions remaining.

I'd just like any potential volunteers to make sure that they do want to transfer, instead of just trying to take advantage of a free pass out of a nation you may not like. What Kooluk is looking for out of these transfers are productive members of the nation, not somebody who just wants to lurk. We've gotten enough of those through the random sorting, and I'm sure we'll get more still. (If you want to do that, you'll need to pay the 1,000,000 potch immigration fee)

Surfrune joined right after me and I got the free pass to join. Of course, it's apparent that they haven't really posted so in that regard, good call.

[Drizzt]

Yes, and originally it was not taken into consideration that the newer members of Suikox should not really have been allowed to change nations, since they had not spent enough time familiarizing themselves with the forum as a whole, and their natural home. However, Sars then unofficially put it into the ruling of this new nation that members who were relatively new to this site could not possibly have the right reason to change their nation so readily, and are in no need of signing up to Kooluk. Furthermore, as Elc said, if for some reason those new people really had a special desire to join the Empire, then they would be free to post around actively at this site, and earn the money for an immigration pass. Seeing this as an easy and free way for a new member to change nation would not be good form, to say the least.

That would in essence explain the reason as to why you were allowed to move into Kooluk, Username, as in the beginning gaining some members from this free 'ride' was something that could fill up Kooluk quite a bit right from the get go. But once things had settled down, and Kooluk was implemented into the site's New-Member-Randomizer, we started to get plenty of new members that way. So it makes sense that for the remaining 6 or so free accounts open to 'slightly' long time members here at Suikox, that they should be going to people who are active around the site, are willing to commit themselves to Kooluk, and would just like to perhaps have a fresh start and have some fun that a new nation tends to bring. Sound fair? Indeed.)

And in case anyone sees this post and wants to ask some questions about Kooluk, please don't post them here, as Sars said he does not want anyone posting in here unless they are intent on joining the new nation. You wouldn't want to unwittingly get transferred to our nation would ya? *Cough Blue Thunder* :wink:

Instead, send either Elc or myself a PM in regards to your possible query, and we shall see what we can do to help you. Thanks.

-Traz.

After the phase I wish to move to Kooluk, seeing as I have to spend one phase as a merc.

Just to let everybody know, the remaining transfer spots have now been reserved, the first of which went to Ley several weeks ago. The list of reserved members has already been sent to Axiose and the transfer will take place at the conclusion of the current phase.

So, if any further members wish to join the Kooluk Empire, it is only fair to announce that, in addition to the obligatory immigration permit, Kooluk will require a payment of 10,000 potch from accepted applicants, unless they are invited into the Empire, in which case the 10,000 potch payment will not be necessary.

I would like to thank everyone who has shown an interest in being a part of the Kooluk Empire and I hope the experience is worth it for those who have volunteered. ;-)

And with that happy ending, this thread also ends. Good luck to Kooluk!
