Talk:Sword Sharp (5e Campaign Setting)/Geography and Environment

Misplaced Decimal?

Just pointing out that your largest "continent" is only slightly larger than the American State of West Virginia (24,230 mi²). Assuming a roughly square size with average terrain, the average human could walk across this continent in 7-9 days. By contrast, Tolkien has stated that just the Shire had an area of roughly 18,000 square miles. So your "biggest continent" is about one and a half Shires. Spanambula (talk) 06:15, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

One, you haven't changed anything concerning the scale of anything, you just added some more backstory. Two, there's nothing negative about this, just pointing out your provided scale is really, really small. Like your planet is smaller than Pluto small. If you don't want to sweat details like exact square miles and percent of land mass to water then just don't include it, it's no big deal. But if you do include those fine details, and there's nothing wrong with doing so, then those details should make sense.

Three, while I'm not going to go out of my way to be mean, by all appearances all of your currently written material here is far below wiki standards. We're waiting for you to actually finish something you've started here so we can actually fairly evaluate it and help you improve it. We can even help you with things like spelling, punctuation, grammar, syntax, communication, comprehension, playability and game balance. I mean, a wiki user here has adapted Pokemon for D&D, so it's not like everything here has to be super-serious. We have non-native English speakers who make content here, so it's not like we're grammar Nazis, but there is an expectation of basic writing proficiency. Like I said, I'm not trying to be mean, and I keep saying that we're here to help, but we're not gonna lie and tell you that your material is great when it's seriously sub-par.
