Barbados Regional Message Board

Ahoy! RV Unrelenting Sea is passing through to explore your featured region. Our hearty congratulations!

Bim Shire, TRUMP ALMIGHTY, The Featured Region Express, Star horde, and 2 othersBite My Biscuits, and The featured region book

The featured region book

A Really Old Book™ falls from the sky. It lands open to as very specific page. Written in absurd, over-the-top calligraphy, the page reads:
Congrats on being featured! Within this book, your region is:

In the Appendix

Nothing here. Boatload of embassies, though

Oh no not another featured region ranking nation :O
Inspired by Bite My Biscuits and The Featured Region Express. I don't know, it looks like fun.
Rankings are based on how much space in the book your region takes up. Work in progress! Suggestions would be awesome

Rank

Explanation

Be gone foul thing

This is reserved for EW GROSS BAD NASTY regions that are just awful. i.e. hateful messages, fascism, homophobia, and whatnot. Not even in the book.

Appendix

For regions that are more of an afterthought. I don't like it, or there hasn't been any activity for a long time. Sadly, this applies to most regions. Your name is in the appendix. (dead region)

Small Section

For regions that are okay. Nothing special going on here, but it has embassy activity, someone has posted within the last two months, or another redeeming feature. You get a few paragraphs in the book.

Small Chapter

Most common ranking for good regions. Some activity, pretty nice, and I like the theme. You get your own chapter in the Really Old Book™.

Full Chapter

Regions with their own chapter that's more than two pages long! I really like this one, it's got lots of activity, and overall is just a great place.

2+ Chapters

For regions that deserve more than just one chapter. This ranking can vary from 2 to 5 additional chapters, depending on how so very cool this region is.

+ A Small Picture

This rank is ADDED to whatever rank you already earned. We have elected to print a small image of your region in the notoriously image-free book. Awarded to regions that I have a personal bias towards or just really like. (One of my alts lives there, I love the theme, etc.)

+ A Full-Page Picture

Your region is so special, so rare, and so one-of-a-kind that we added a full page image of your region to the Really Old Book™, which is typically known for its lack of pictures. (This ranking is ADDED to another ranking and is recieved if your region is truly 🌟special🌟 even if it sucks in general. Rarest ranking.)

Rank boosting: If your region is featured on a particularly special day (Christmas, N-Day, etc.), your ranking is boosted by one. If, by some bizarre chance, you already have the best possible rank, you win at feature day. Congratulations.

How nice!

Pizza here for the featured region, is this the right address?

Bim Shire, TRUMP ALMIGHTY, The Featured Region Express, Star horde, and 2 othersBite My Biscuits, and The featured region book

That is one job that I would hate to have, Pizza Delivery. Scary what kind of customers you would run into. Of course with GPS and map services improving to the point that getting around is getting much easier.

So you know this woman… Rihanna as the youths refer to her. I love the youths by the way, they voted for me almost as much as the elderly did. Anyways, she was from here right?

I’m wondering if there are any other interesting facts about your Caribbean Nation. Believe me, I love the Caribbean, nobody loves the Caribbean more than me. CROOKED Dems love to Criticize my foreign Policy, so I figured NOW is time to learn some fast facts about Barbados

Congratulations on being the featured region! Bigly 🥳🥳🥳

Mmmmm😋. Love the taste of that brass

As a train pulls into the Barbados train station, an announcement is made.

*Now arriving at Barbados station on Track 1, is The Featured Region Express to [Insert next featured region.] Please stand back from the yellow line and please watch the gap while boarding the train.

When entering the station, FRE Train Conductor Kai sticks his head out of the train''s locomotive window, waves, and yells: "Congratulations on becoming the Featured Region of the Day Barbados!"

The train stops at the platform, and opens its doors, waiting until the next region is featured to depart from the Barbados station to the next station.

Region Score (What Class would I let the members of this region sit in on the train, based on the region score the region gets):

Coach Class: Dead region, region with no activity or little to no activity.

Premium Coach Class: Semi-dead region, region with some activity, embassy active region, your average ancient lands associated region, this is the region's 2nd time being featured, or I like the region.

Business Class: Region with a lot of activity, this is the region's 3rd time being featured, or I really like the region.

First Class: Region with a ton of activity, this is the region's 4th or more time being featured, or I love this region so much, that if I weren't congratulating featured regions, I would most likely reside in that region for awhile, or make it my permanent region.

Class Upgrade: If a region is based on an IRL location that has a train station, the region's score will be upgraded one class.
