New RP Discussion

[BoneSatellite]

Kelll has proposed the idea of carrying on two RP's simultaneously, so that nobody has to wait (Tamari, in particular) until the first RP is over to start the new one. Let's start chat'n 'bout it.

[Rychon]

I have enough trouble remembering all the names and descriptions for this RP!

[Tamari]

*grins* This is really sweet!

I would love to join in a new RP, but only if many people want to join. Since if it's mostly for me the RP won't go so fast (me being in a different time-zone from most of you...)

What kind of RP would people like? Something with easy names (Rycho)?
We could use the, not so original, but fun, formula of modern day people (with easy names) that end up in another world somehow. It can be interesting if the method and the world are special enough ^^

[Ebility Deranged]

What about a modern-day RP? It'd make it totally different to the last one.

[Tamari]

... A modern day rp? Like, in America, Australia, the Netherlands or some other country? We would have to be real careful not to make characters like ourselves then ^^ It's always more fun to play someone very different from myself.

But what about the story? It would be fun to have a lot of different characters thrown in together. Maybe a summercamp, or jamboree of some sort as beginning?

Or something completly different: a small village somewhere where strangers coming to visit ^^, or a big city where people from the country get lost... Oh never mind.

Ebi: What did you have in mind?

[Voyd]

i think its fun to play someone of a similar attitude and personality to me; but they actually have reasons for being like they are! ^^;

another rp sounds good, but would it be possible to hold it off until the end of the current one? I'd really like to participate (and spend a lot longer on my character for one thing...) in this one, but I'm kind of in agreeance with Rychon. I'd end up calling everyone by random names that I'd make up more likely than not.

But anyway, a modern day one does sound good; i take it we are having magic exist as well? If so, are we on 'earth' or some other world where we dont have to be geographically correct?

hrmmm... if we're on earth... i vote somewhere where no single (or group) of forumites have an advantage with knowing exactly what or where everything is; levels the playing field? unless they were willing to have an uber-long massive post on everything about that place. Which I doubt many people would fully read anyway ^^;
in which case... i suggest mexico or latin america? *shrug* if anyone lives there, feel free to pipe up and we can go over other plans of action.

[Tamari]

I've been to Chili... ^^ But I don't think that's a bad thing. We need to have some sort of idea of what the place looks like, right?

Perhaps it would be best to do it in another world. That way we can change things the way we see fit. With magic and stuf.

[Kelll]

gah, modern day rps, ill not be in this one.....

[Ebility Deranged]

YES YES! Ooooohh... WAIT.

What if it was set in Oregon?

[Voyd]

heeheehee! ^^

we could have it in this world and have magic as well...
but we'd have to decide what races and stuff....

why Kelll?

[Neoflame]

i had the thought of us all living at Castle Moss an it comes under attack by space aliens or watever an we find a hidden vault with a bunch of weapons( Gundums, Zoids, all manner of guns an explosives ,an Mech Armour an watnot). but no magik. level the power field

[Voyd]

hrmmm, but what would we do with the castle moss thread then? what about the people who arent in the rp but want to go on the thread? and what about everyone who doesn't know about all those sorts of weapons and stuff? and copywright :p

[Neoflame]

set in eether past or future

[Ebility Deranged]

Naw, then there'd be like ZIP chance of plot.

[Neoflame]

we could have an evil char that betrays us to the invaders an lets em into the castle before we find the weapons. thats plot.

[Ebility Deranged]

Not really.

[Voyd]

and then there's Tamari's point that its more fun to play characters at least slightly unlike us - plus it takes longer to create them if its from scratch

[Neoflame]

well, at leest lets decide. magik or no? i vote no. we have it in the first one. time fer a change.

[Voyd]

hrmm, i personally would vote yes, because im partial to magic myself, but anyway....

are we still having Fae and such to at least maintain a semblance of being linked to the CL forum properly anyway?

[Snowy]

ehe...can i be indifferent? i'll make up my mind whether to participate or not once details are clear...cos i suck at rps ^^
