Oh yeah, and here's the new, revamped-ish map.

I haven't gotten to rivers/lakes/forests yet, I've just been remaking the coastline. There's a portion on one of the main islands that I haven't remade yet.

When you return, I'm planning a new fantasy world inspired by this conversation. Here's the link to an interest check about it, if you want to check it out. I'm planning on mixing in a lot of stuff all at once and then presenting it up front in the OP, and then working with what I included in the OP instead of ignoring it and making something else up.

Is this like the country you want to make to see if you're better than me? If so, it's good so far.

Two things. First, no that's not what this is.

Second, how many times do I need to IP ban you? This is getting ridiculous. I'm inclined to make it so that guests can't post at all just to get you to go away.

So I guess I did end up making a map despite having said earlier in this thread that I'd probably be bad at it. Funny how that ended up happening.

SPOILER: Click to show

Anyway, I think that it's a perfect example to demonstrate how rivers actually should work - you can see lots of tributaries joining on to the main river, and the river itself doesn't do anything even resembling splitting until it's fairly wide and has an islet inside of it, and then a delta. It's not a perfect map by any means, but at least the river makes actual goddamn sense.

Holy fuck, I've read one page of this and I can say with certainty that I've never seen someone so absolutely fucking ignorant of geography, population, geopolitics, and literally anything else used in building a nation, as you. It's fucking insulting to me as a world builder to even think that you could be considered under the same name as me.

[Hey guys, Vsauce Lego here]

Also what the fuck is up with your rivers? There's no rhyme or reason to them. Can't tell where the fuck any of them go or how they flow. It's not even all of them either, so you clearly have a basic idea of how rivers work, but, like, what the fuck?

You're basically just sort of reiterating much of the criticism that the four or five other people here have jumped on, but it's insane how much he failed at the utmost basics of worldbuilding. It's even crazier how instead of taking any advice at all he just kept making things worse for himself.

I honestly couldn't be assed to read much past the first page. It's just insulting, really.

It gets both worse and funnier. Some highlights include the beginning of page 4, where I redesigned his flag to adhere to the design principles in Good Flag Bad Flag, and the end of page 5, where I accidentally said map a half a dozen times when I meant the word flag.

This whole thread reminds me that Happy is a real person who lives amongst the rest of us.

That just can't be the case. He can't be a real person. Nobody can be that much like Happy.

Happy isn't a human being. He's human pond scum. That's the difference.

You, uh, do realize he's still here, right? He's going to read this sooner or later. It may not be the best idea to call him that.

If he's smart he'll remember that this was a year ago and look back at it with hindsight and acknowledge that he was being stupid.

That's fine. I'll gladly call him that to his face tbh.

As of tomorrow, this trainwreck will be a year old.

That sounds like something you'd say about a person's birthday. "As of tomorrow, this trainwreck [referring to oneself] will be (however many) years old."

I can say it sort of about Fantasy RP, which had its roots in a joke made by Duck and I on this thread, but that's not really a trainwreck.

I still find this thread to be entertaining upon a reread.
