The Great Texas Land Grab

The Great Texas Land Grab will occur for one week. We do not know how any other way to do this fairly so we are just going to go for it. We are also going to telegram all Texans on NationStates about this as well. If you do not get what you want, we are sorry. We know this may be a little chaotic, but this is just something we will have to endure.

There are roughly 238 maps slots. Texas has 268 nations. Texans also have a lot of puppets. Let's try to get everyone's primary in before we start loading up puppets please. Texas also has a lot of "silent partners" that will not want a map.

Here is how this is going to work. Nations can select the map coordinates they want on this thread for one week - through Sunday the 30th at High Noon Texas Time (CST (GMT-6)). If two nations want the same territory, then we are going to give priority to the nation that has been in Texas the longest. We will use the official New Citizens Arrival Dates thread to determine when a nation arrived. This will only come into play on Sunday the 30th and only on disputed territories. We urge you to work it out amongst yourselves prior to our having to declare a winner. We may suggest a first choice and an alternative choice. Let's not go beyond that.

After January 30th, all territories are first come first served based on the post time on this thread! We are opening this thread to Guests, so you do not have to be registered to post here. Please use your nation name on your post if you are a guest.

The flags will be put on the nations at that time and the customization can begin. Nations are also encouraged to provide the Additional Information in an email to NewTexas or PAX HEARTLANDIA on this board or to the email addresses on each page on the website. It will simply be more personal.

Any questions should be posted on the Questions, Problems & Suggestions thread.

Have fun and let's try not to kill each other.

Channelview would like a small speck of a peninsula, carved from Greenspoint. Really small. Microscopic actually.

Due to the last minute arrival of the new frames, the Grand Opening of the Texas Mapping Project will be delayed until Sunday. It will be worth the wait!

Thank you for understanding.
