Alright so after a discussion with Bh on the server about how much time passed between 1.0 and 2.0, its clear that we don't really have a established timeline. So I think we should try to establish that, and also establish what is and is not canon, in preparation for 3.0. (please add your opinions & discuss as I go down the list)

So first up, how much time passed between 1.0 and 2.0?: I personally don't think it would have been "to" long, since some characters from 1.0 did reappear in 2.0, such as "Lord Duff", and "ex High Lord Jamhalo" (sub topic: how long can a Dwarf live?). Not to mention some 1.0 factions like Diamond Nations & Emerald Hills are still around and stronger than ever.

Next, should 1.5 be canon?: I remember we generally decided it wasn't before, but I honestly don't see why not. Maybe we say it took place on the other side of the planet?

Third, How much of our world have we explored?: Some groups like EH and the United Factions have had time to expand quite a bit, but I like the idea that most of our world is still a mystery, and that some groups (like the Elven faction) can just come out of nowhere without having any previous encounters with our existing factions.

Fourth, What races exist in our universe?: I'm personally open to most races existing, particularly ones from fantasy universe's, such as Dwarves, Elves, Orc's, Trolls, so on. Yoshi's I'm not so sure of... maybe if they're just lizard people?

And finally, how do we want to go about 3.0, in terms of were we go, and how much time has passed: (I feel BH has a bit more say on this topic, since he's already started planning 3.0's main storyline and its connection to 2.0) From what BH has mentioned so Far, 3.0 will almost be a direct sequel to 2.0, and the United Factions will have collapsed.

(My plans for 3.0) I was personally planning to "maybe" bring the Emerald Hills back as a major RP & player faction, (since a lot of people have asked me to make Emerald Hills 2.0 XD) and I also wanted to continue the Elf Vs Dwarf war that's erupted in 2.0. So as far as location is concerned, I'm hoping we move more into EH territory, but at the same time, I still want it to be on the frontier, so there's room for other major factions, like DN.
