Alternative History:Map Game Oversight Committee

The Map Game Oversight Committee, presented by Archon of the Omniversal Collective Monster Pumpkin, Strategos of the Edele Adelaars Scrawland Scribblescratch, and Lieutenant PitaKang.

A map game is a role-playing game in which each player controls the actions of an entire nation or people-group. A map game must always have a main page that includes a map of the area encompassed by the player nations and all posts by the players and moderators. All map games must have moderators that control NPC events and people, guiding the world and prevent inter-player conflict.

In the same manner as TSPTF requests, each map game has a time of two weeks to gather the votes which declare it successful or unsuccessful for making.

 * We hit this one first, but I think with dedication we could revamp and restart the game. Thoughts? [[Image:1.png|23px]] Imp (Say Hi?!) 18:44, February 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not a member of the mapgame committee, but I'm a moderator of the game so I'll put in my thoughts. First of all, I display interest in reviving it, but I think we need to revive it later since 95T will outcompete it until it'll fall into inactiveness. ~There was a candy,  and it said,  "Bruh, I'm coming for you, bruh. Oi, g'day mate you wanna mate?" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Southern Independence

 * Creater: Orangebird763
 * Map Games Started Before: 0 (this is my first)
 * {Starting: 1866} The Confederate States have won the Civil War, now known as the Confederate Revolution. The United States is left torn by war, and must rebuild. Will the United States recover? Will the young Confederacy survive? Will your country live on, or crumble into ruins? (I'm sure I'm not the first to propose this, but I think we need another game like this.)
 * Length of turn: 6 months (0.5 years) per turn, 300 turns to 2016.
 * Aye voters

 * Interesting I would like to thank Feud for making Borealia possible  03:08, February 28, 2016 (UTC)

 * Just a note, I will be making a page for this soon, as soon as I figure out all the nations in 1866. --Orangebird "SPACESHIP!" --Benny in the Lego Movie (→My wall!←) 21:07, February 28, 2016 (UTC)

Pagan Conversion

 * Creator Jbwncster   (Talk)  RustySilverGear.png 20:24, February 24, 2016 (UTC)
 * Map Games started before: 2
 * Description: The year is 657, the start of the First Islamic War and the first few British Isles kingdoms became christian. Will you lead your nation to success. This map game is designed to compete with 95T as a high quality game.
 * Length of turn: 1 year
 * Yes voters

 * One concern I have is the length of the turn. At this rate, it will take about four years for this game to finish. I don't know if you intend to spend four years running this game, but I reccomend either placing a date for the game to end by or increase the turn length for the beginning centuries. "This is not your grave  but you are welcome in it.

 * Great premise I would like to thank Feud for making Borealia possible  03:09, February 28, 2016 (UTC)

 * Needs more development on the page before it is passed by me. Flag of the Xanian Empire.svg Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 03:38, February 28, 2016 (UTC)
 * Discussion
 * Not a member, but I'd just question the logic having two map games running with a POD within 100 years of each other, and being at the same approximate timeframe at the present. 03:27, February 28, 2016 (UTC)
