Naming The Landmasses

I think that to improve the colonisation process, the landmasses should be named. I don't have any names yet, but still all the large landmasses should have names.

A 3/4 majority of the nations currently in the landmass must agree to the name. The landmass names will be on the map.

<b>White Region</b>
3 Members must agree to a name with ZERO votes against.
(Glassed Tachbe can only ABSTAIN)

<b>Blue Region</b>
5 Members must agree to the name with ONE vote against.
(Arh....AM can only vote AGAINST)

Well, my idea was that in a region with 3 nations in it, the vote would have to be unanimous. And I think that the nameless regions should be referred to by color.

Well if you are referring to your region, there are 5 Nations in it. One, However, is Glassed Tachbe, who being absent from the region, has no vote, so must abstain, but is still a recognized occupied territory. So there goes Unanimous. Samonina and yourself are active, so theres 2; Salmantic is away and will only check back sporadically and Ostya only signs on when we ask him to, so I hope that clears up the reasoning behind 3 (1+1+.5+.5+0) = 3; with ZERO votes against.

I was actually referring to the yellow region, which has 4 nations

The yellow region is too large to be named at this point. less than 50% of the land is occupied, even if there were 12 nations taking the same amount of space, it would remain nameless until at least 2/3rds of the land was covered.

Oh, okay. That makes sense. Although if 12 nations took the same amount of space, I think that some of the nations would be annexing.

I think the cyan region has enough covered now to be named.

EDIT: Cool! 50 posts!

With 7 nations occupying the yellow bit of the mis-spelled archipeligo (plus myself and NEWI informally naming the lake 'Bekk') I think that the Yellow Continent should now be named. Any suggestions?

I don't see any objkections to the lake being called Bekk. I also see no rason why there is a 'k' on objections or there is not an 'e' in reason, but that's a story for a different day. I propose the Yellow Continent be called Marligantis

A suggestion would be to have each nation currently on a landmass come up with a name for that landmass, and then have a poll to see what name the nations of that landmass like best.
