Region: Taijitu
Eh, no thanks, before I stopped activity we were all pretty discouraged due to player/mod response and the cartographer ignoring us. Can't speak exactly for others, but for the most part we just wanted to do dumb RP with mcm to counterbalance bad rp responses he was getting. While fun to plan out at first, think we all lost interest because we were more interested in story-driven worldbuilding, like writing a collective book.
As for Funk/Myro, who cares what TNP thinks now? they're cool dudes.
I wouldn't say Taijitu RP/Worlduilding is better, just different. Other NS-RP communities like TNPRP treat it more like a spreadsheet simulator of risk and arbitrary numbers, and many people there also treated worldbuilding as a way to express their personal beliefs like they were creating their own version of Moore's Utopia. Meanwhile, our worldbuilding was usually about having a setting surrounded by dumb hijinks and more character driven stuff. Myroria likes to make morrowind with a royal crisis, I liked to write the antagonist, usually with communism, Putin-esque schemes, and crime, Khem's worldbuilding was like taking a trip, etc.
It's like the Plinkett review, where he asks his friends to describe the protagonists. If people asked me to describe nations in Taijitu-RP similarly, I think I could come up with some good answers. In TNP-RP, no idea, I could only really describe their system of government or how many times they sent millions of peacekeepers for any problem.
TL:DR - TNPRP, you do you, TaijituRP, you do you or not, we haven't done anything in awhile.
