I have to agree the majority of players seem to be lingering in the Shire, or even moving down to play there. I notice this mostly in my own rpging habits - I started off in Gondor, in Castle Maladil. Once that finished, I went to In War in Rohan - that never finished, and there was a lack of games to play in, so I felt that if I really wanted games to play in, I had to go to the Shire.

This seems to mean that the Shire is becoming less and less about a beginner level - Corsairs and Corsets, for example, does not seem Shire game quality - I'm sure it's higher than that. There are many people currently playing in the Shire that are certainly at Rohan standard, or Gondor.

I do agree Rohan needs more games - the problem is getting people to submit proposals. I feel a tad hypocritical saying this, as I often mean to do that myself [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] but never get round to it. I also think there is a lack of confidence among the players to a certain extent - like I said before, a lot of games started in the Shire, I feel could be in Rohan. Perhaps if the Shire moderators feel a game may be up to Rohan standard, it could be started there. This would mean more activity in Rohan, a place I really only go for the Inn.

The board could be a good idea, but it seems quite time consuming and a lot of work, and it seems the moderators in the Shire have a lot to do already.
