Claims, Expansions, and territory decay.
You will tell me, the mapper, how many systems you have either already in the RP, or how many you are claiming. You will then direct me to where to place you on the map. If you have any complaints afterwards, please, bring them up to me. If you have any and I mean any space expansion posts from before you claimed on the map, please, link them so that I know how many systems to give you.
For new players to IOC, just make a post where you colonize more than 50 systems. If it's adequate, it will be considered. If it isn't I'll help advice you on how to make it so the post is adequate, and viable to be accepted.
Territory Decay. This will be a controversial one for some. If you CTE, or leave IOC, or you stop RPing entirely for three months, your territory will begin to decay, and become claimable by other people. This decay will continue until either you return, or your territory is gone completely. The decay, once it begins, will speed up rapidly.
