I have a request to re-draw the borders of three provinces : "Gem mountain", North and Southwest. You can see that the city of Dapperdan is in the Gem mountains, but not in my province. I request the we redraw the borders so that "Gem mountains" borders reach 1 tiles SE of Dapperdan and 1 tile North of Dapperdan. My second request is the 6 tile chunk of the Southwest province that reaches into the Gem mountains and that is also beside Dapperdan become part of the "Gem Mountain" province. Any one who can attach an image, please do! This is the revised proposal from the input of Chieftess. I am not smart enough to make a pic, so anyone who can, please do.

edit. Some old discussion on the old proposal can be found here.
 
I vote no. There is no call for moving Dapperdan to the "Gem Mountain" province. It shares border and hill territory with North Province but there is absolutely no simple travel from Dapperdan to Gem Mountain - you'd have to hike over 4 tiles of mountain to get anywhere in there.

The border should be the mountains so giving Gem Mountain the grassland and forest from Southwest province is also a bad idea.
 
Dapperdan is surronded by moutains on all sides with gems on them. I dont know how anyone can say its not in the " Gem Mountain" province
 
Dapperdan has mountains around it but only the ones to the west and south have gems. The ones to the east are part of the defining spine of mountains of the North Province. The only movement from Dapperdan that does not go into a mountain tile is to the east where there are hills.

The name "Gem Mountain Province" was given solely for the purposes of discussion while we were establishing these borders. It was not intended as a mandate to include all lands surrounding those mountains that contain Gems. If that were the case, we should also consider expanding the North province to include all lands North of our capitol.
 
Sorry, Goonie. I have to vote no.
 
@40J.

I understand what you are saying, but you said borders follow terrain. Thats what I am trying to do. Make the borders follow the terrain!

Actually this is going well for my proposal I think. The 3 that I knew would vote no have already done so...

Mountains are the terrain. The gems are also on the mountains! Have you ever even seen a pic of what we are talking about?
 
I have made one, but have tried and failed in the discussion to post it.
 
I vote yes. The mountains should be in 1 province, and the panhndle is a bit of an eyesore.
 
I voted yes.... for the above reason and this one:

Goonie is a dedicated govonor.... He shows potential. If we limit him to this small Size 1 and 2 city province then we might lose a chance to get a great govonor.
 
@Strider - That's not a very good reason. Goonie had his pick of 6 provinces with nobody to contest his governance and he chose this one. If he wanted a bigger province with more cities he could have had one.

@Chieftess - Unfortunately the proposal is for the mountains plus a city, grassland and a forest and an additional tile on the other side of Dapperdan.

I can't believe this proposal has a 50% approval when there isn't even a map of the borders! This is just crazy.

Maybe he wanted this certain province. The pride to have a large amount of gems in the terrority... Who knows why he choose this province, but he won it and now I believe he deserves a bigger province. He is perfectly able to do the job and not letting him do it isn't very good.

It's not crazy... It just shows that some people like the idea.
