A quiet conference was held, and tropes that do not apply (either because they are badly outdated, or because they are misapplied), or refer to events that have been excommunicated from the work. For instance, fourth wall breaking for shiggles is now potentially a suspendable offense, so are "boss battles", nobody knows who half these characters even are, troping creators rather than the work, and we really don't need to be immortalising a paedophile's proxied advances on me, or another different paedophile's personal fap fodder that he foisted on a bunch of sixteen year-olds. Also removed several ZC Es. (And a few more paedobits.)


In the game, all avatars are together in a room where they interact together. It originally started out a fun, lighthearted thread, but got darker and more like a Forum RP. As a result, the game was split into two different threads, the less structured version called the FG as it was once located in the Forum Games section., and [[Roleplay/OurAvatarsWereInARoomTogetherTheContinuation the plot-y version]] called the RP as it was created in the Roleplaying Section. The continuity here is looser than in the Forum RP. It can be found [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13236601070A71890800&page=1 here.]] Please read [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12983510570A63380100&page=1#1 the rules]] before joining. Additional tips to make the roleplaying experience fun for all can be found [[RoleplayingTips/OurAvatarsAreInARoomTogether here.]]

The character sheet shows more character-specific details (duh), and is always being updated (at least, by some users). Go check it out!

%%Someone bug me about the character sheet tomorrow, that thing's even worse of a mess.



* ActorAllusion: In-jokes occasionally pop up relating to the actors that played the characters, or sometimes the tropers themselves
* ActuallyADoombot: Mini-Majora



* AnthropomorphicPersonification: Sheogorath, of Chaos. Dialga, of Time. Angra Mainyu, of Evil. Cloud, of the Lifestream.
* ApocalypseHow: The fight between Azathoth and Cloud nearly triggers a Class Z.
** The Absolutist planned to bring about the total annihilation of all time and space after his Ascension.
* ApocalypseWow: Cloud's Planet is destroyed after a deal with Jareth goes bad.
* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: Aven becomes a universe and has to leave the others behind after successfully defeating the Absolutist. The Lodger is implied to have done this when he left for the forest, but it's up to interpretation.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Goku shows up with the Dragon Balls. RealityEnsues. Specifically, Ujasiri is driven to grief by finding out something she didn't realise she wanted to know, and Hope [[ForWantOfANail dooms his timeline]].
* BeachEpisode: Galactus gives the Room a beach complete with a beach town, naturally it's entertained by everybody and is still acknowledged by some of the people in the Room.
* BerserkButton: Boris's designer clothes; don't mess with them.
** Cloud and doctors and/or scientists.
*** You really shouldn't interrupt Near and Rosarita's romantic moments if you don't want to get thrown across the room with half of your ribs broken.
*** Hurting anyone Majora considers a friend will result in you ''wishing'' she would kill you.
** Do not mention Ed's height around Ed.
*** Accordions.
** Go ahead, try to hurt a woman when Zidane's around.
** You don't mess with Vi's friends ever lest you want your eyes punched out through the back of your skull.
** Nor do you insult Heidi's mech and get away with it without a fight.
* {{BFS}}: Zack with the Buster Sword, and Cloud with his Fusion Swords and this just the beginning of the list...
** All of Matt's swords, and FF!Gilgamesh collects these.
** [[VideoGame/AsurasWrath Augus]] takes this to an extent beyond all the others, at a maximum length of the distance from '''THE EARTH TO THE MOON!'''
* BigBadDuumvirate: [[Series/DoctorWho Davros]] and a [[Franchise/MassEffect Reaper]] named Auditor entered an alliance, though the full extent of their partnership and their nefarious schemes has yet to be revealed.
** It likely never will be, as this arc has long since been buried under the [[strike:sands]] pages of time.
* BigDamnVillains: [[VideoGame/AngryBirds Mighty Eagle and his army of birds]] almost single-handedly defeated Discord during his reign of terror.
* BigFriendlyDog: [[HyperboleAndAHalf Simple Dog]]/[[FanNickname Am Dog]].
* TheBigRace: An areal [[{{Franchise/Pokemon}} Pokérace]] that started out with just a Dragonite and a Ho-Oh (with Mary and Pikachu as passengers respectively) and turned into a multi-competitor event with several legendaries making appearances. [[OlympusMons Arceus himself]] showed up at the end and commemorated the event by creating a constellation and a beautiful crystalline flower.
* BossFight: They happen every now and then.
* BreakTheCutie: Daisy's reaction to [[{{Jerkass}} Czer]] and Pentigan [[{{Squick}} screwing around with each other]] after she waited months to see him.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Both averted at all costs, and ruthlessly smashed in for the lulz. Dante and Yog Sothoth seem fond of this. Naked Snake cuts the crap and flat out communicates with the rest of the [=RPers=], including his own.
** Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff end up doing so when they learn a bit about how posts can get formatted, so much as pointing out out of character spoilers in their own posts and trying to use the smiley mark up to further their plans..
* BusCrash: Young!Cloud
* ButtMonkey: '''Cloud'''.
** Zidane, to an extent.
* ByronicHero: Cloud, to the letter. Bardock occasionally shows hints of this. [[Literature/TheInvisibleMan Griffin]] is an exemplar of this trope.
* CallBack: Cloud, being a long runner and mainstay in the room, drops some of these at times. His alternate timeline's doomed self's tennis ball that Gordon gave him, the dog tags with his name on them during his run as the Cycle, and Aradia's gun are a few things he's cited.
** [=NoLegs=] returns after an almost ten-thousand page gap between appearances for an April Fools joke. He later [[spoiler:is unceremoniously killed by Mituna in a skateboarding accident.]]
* CantStayNormal: Cloud, not for lack of trying, mind you.
* CatGirl: Daisy turns into one for a bit.
** Chii as well, due to her persocom ears. She even acted like a cat during one King's Game.
* CasualDangerDialogue
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: For several characters.
* TheChewToy: Clippit can't help getting on others' bad side, which frequently results in him getting hurt in various amusing ways.
* CloningBlues: Lok, who was a clone of Cloud. Tried to replace the original to have a family like he did. Failed miserably. Died alone, and forgotten by everyone.
* ClusterFBomb: Mituna Captor, Revy, and Gunnery Sgt. Hartman.
* ColonyDrop: Majora's Mask attempted to make the moon fall. Guillo trying to ''destroy it as it fell'' certainly didn't help.
* ComfortingComforter: [[BigBrotherInstinct Cloud]] will do this for nearly anyone, but particularly Daisy and Delta.
** Rosarita does this for Near, albeit with more romantic intent.
* TheCorruption: What can only be made of [[Webcomic/SweetBroAndHellaJeff GEROMY and The Big Man]]. Their appearances spreads jpeg artifacts and threatens to make everybody into a shitty Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff parody of their original self.
* CurbstompBattle: Cloud vs. [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure Egg Walker]]. All it took was a single slash, which removed all 4 legs from Eggman's machine.
** Eggman seems to have appeared only for these. The second one was right after the first, with it ending in someone slicing [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog the wrecking ball]] in half. The third one he did somewhat better, but the [[VideoGame/SonicColors Nega-Wisp Armour]] wasn't up to the task. It turned into a curbstomp once Sonic showed up.
** Rust Monsters had never stood a chance...
* CuteKitten: Serena, Sissel, Victus and [[BalefulPolymorph Daisy]].
* DarkerAndEdgier: The RP thread for this one. Also, the story arcs in the FG involving Jenova and the Traveller.

significantly different interpretations



* DeliberateValuesDissonance: Cloud has no problem with the concept of child soldiers, and treats death much more casually than several others in the room, if not a bit more respectfully.
* DemonicPossession: Not technically a demon either time, but this happens to Volkov and Cloud.
** Happens to Cloud a ''lot.'' Done by Angra Mainyu three times, Azathoth twice, Yog Sothoth twice, an anonymous Elder Thing once, his SplitPersonality several times (though these are usually voluntary, and have happened much less after he takes over Jenova), Jenova six times, and Soul Edge Twice.
** The first occurence with Soul Edge is notable in particular for causing the Junon Incident... namely, [[spoiler: Cloud went on a bloodlust/Jenova-fueled rampage and leveled a third of the city, killing thousands. By the time he managed to throw off control, the damage had been done, and after spending three months in confinement by the WRO with a lobotomy chip in his brain, he was allowed to go, with a TrackingChip implanted in the back of his neck as punishment. ]] It later happened again, with Cloud failing and attempting to permanently take control of Soul Edge, but he was reigned in by Toras Tarvok before much damage was done.
* DisneyDeath: Majora. She only managed to fool about half of the room, as said people weren't quite as GenreSavvy as the other half. Said other half mourned her death, only for her to pop up later in a different form to watch the fun.
* DrivenToSuicide: "Roberta" and Cloud.
** SuicideByCop: Attempted by Cloud[[note]]separately from his prior, successful attempt[[/note]] with Majora after his memory of his family is erased and Fen is killed.
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Ray and Spoof-Cloud. Seemingly Cloud at one point, but this turns out to be part of a BatmanGambit.
* DrowningMySorrows: At one point, [[VideoGame/HalfLife2 Doctor Wallace Breen]] and [[VideoGame/KnockKnock The Lodger]] get together and agree that both their lives are for lack of a better word, shit, and drink together.
* DysfunctionJunction: Hell, ''everyone'' that winds up in the room has issues one way or another. Cloud especially so.
* EmotionlessGirl: Julie, anyone?
* EmptyPilesOfClothing: When a character goes through a particularly dramatic [[BalefulPolymorph transformation]], although this is occasionally [[MagicPants averted]] for convenience.
* EveryScarHasAStory: Used to be a popular conversation starter for someone to talk about how they received a certain scar.
* FriendToAllChildren: Cloud, to a ridiculous degree. The number of TykeBomb[=s=] he's befriended is staggering.
* ForWantOfANail: Gear Leader's Kamina comes from a world where Simon died in place of him. Because Kamina could never push himself as far as Simon did, Yoko and Kittan are dead and Team Dai-Gurren has been in a losing struggle against Lord Genome for seven years.
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: Riki's chasing around a treasure chest that spontaneously causes traps wherever it goes! Cloud's just gonna do his katas.
** Oh no! Lilith's been heavily injured by holy powers! Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff are just going to continue dealing with a flood of arrows and their own shenanigans while Cloud the Cycle does random mundane things to avoid getting involved.
** Good gracious, Haseo's rampaging in the room while Asura, Leena and Raven try to stop him! Meanwhile, Cloud and Tarvok are busy catching a mouse outside.
* GagPenis: [[ShinMegamiTensei Mara.]]
* GargleBlaster: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nITLob098W8 The Vytautas Mineral Water]]. It's Earth's juice!
* GenderBender: Happens to Gilgamesh, Cloud, [[WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries "Malik"]], Hazama and Ryoji
* GratuitousRap:
** Davesprite and Hella Jeff's slam battle.
** Davesprite, Dave, Dirk and Violent J's three on one Juggalo-coolkid throwdown.
* GuiltComplex: Gordon Freeman, Silver, Lodger Jr. and Cloud.
* [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday Have I Mentioned I Am Homosexual Today?]]: Yes, you read that right. Invoked by Cloud to try to shake off the [[{{Yandere}} Courier.]] It doesn't work.
* HotSpringsEpisode: Estelle drags Yuno to onsen. A minute later, everyone from the Room is in there as well. Complete with Cloud being a {{Butt Monkey}}, hot lesbian action between Lilith, Casshern and [[spoiler: Tomo]] and more various hijinks.
* INeedAFreakingDrink: Cloud, multiple times, [[DrowningMySorrows which always leads to him getting drunk.]] The grand total is thirty times, and it is believed he may have developed a bit of a drinking problem.
** [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Gendo Ikari]] too. He only visits the room for two reasons: to make sure Rei is safe and to get hammered.
* IncredibleShrinkingMan: Happens to Bang Shishigami, and later Cloud.
* InfantImmortality: Averted with Daudz.

* KickTheDog: Thanos imprisoning Cloud in a cage in bird form. Which generally wouldn't be a problem, but Cloud has a huge problem with confined spaces due to a few things that happened in his backstory.
* KilledOffForReal: So far, Anomaly!Cloud ([[MercyKill put out of his misery by Dante]], Azathoth (killed by Cloud), Daudz (killed in his infancy by Cloud), Zagi (absorbed by Cloud during one of his Episodes), and Dr. Breen (betrayed and shot by one of his former employees).
** Breen seems to be back as Breengrub now, though.
* KillTheOnesYouLove: Cloud has the misfortune to wind up offing Ray, Zack, Tifa, and Daudz, his own son. The ResetButton was pushed via time paradox for the latter two, [[KilledOffForReal writing the last one out of existence entirely.]]
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: Happens on occasion.
* LeeroyJenkins: ''Roxas.'' He attacks literally ''everything,'' including (but not limited to):
** Liman and Kaneki
** Cloud
** Random people in Silver's memories
** Robots with blood on them



* LudicrousGibs: The aftermath of a [[VideoGame/KillingFloor specimen]] attack on DJ Scully's room. He's still trying to figure out how to clean the mess.
* AMindIsATerribleThingToRead: Poor, poor Silver can hear everything the people around him think. Meaning he is constantly under assault.
* MindRape: Done to Cloud, frequently. Guy can barely go a week without one. Did it ''to'' someone a few times, when suitably pissed. Griff was also subjected to a couple, first from the Absolutionist, who wanted to judge him for his "sins", and later Majora, who wanted him as a puppet.
* MomentKiller: Excalibur, in as much as this is possible when it's not a romantic moment.
** Naked Snake enjoys doing this. He thought it was a good idea to sneak up on Near and Rosarita's love scene, and the response [[MegatonPunch was inmediate]].
** Singed occasionally does it as well and let's not even get started at Hazama...
* MoodWhiplash: Frequently.
* MsFanservice : Arturia....for some reason.
** Lilith.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12983510570A63380100&page=6680 Cloud was finally taken in to get his tracking chip removed]] in what would have been an in-and-out procedure. Fen freaked out and attacked the WRO officers sent to retrieve him, half the room followed him to Edge, more problems were caused when Fen was seen and people pointed out her existence was a time paradox as far as they knew (as well as a biohazard), an overpass was destroyed, Penti made a threat that got taken seriously and was arrested, and Cloud had to have his chip put back in, as well as a kill-switch, as collateral. Good job, guys!
** Hope made a wish on the Dragon Balls to remove his friends' brands... forgetting that they were still wanted by the authorities, now without any powers to protect them, and leaving his own brand very much in place...
** Aven flooding the Absolutist with Lifestream caused him to Ascend to near God-like power and become an entire universe.
* TheNthDoctor: The [[Series/DoctorWho Doctor]] himself. His 10th and 11th incarnations have been in the room.



* OfficialCouple : Pierce and Enkidu.
** Dante and Lady
** Cloud and Tifa
** Near and Rosarita are on their way as well.
** Griff and Shizune used to be one. [[spoiler: The former left the latter in favor of Majora.]]
** Daisy Sue and John Egbert.
* OutOfFocus: A lot of characters tend to fall off to the wayside after so long, if by lack of player interest, a closure of events for them, or a player's inability to participate in the game.
** Gordon, Near, and Gendo come to mind, there definitely hasn't been as many Striders running around since before, Mega Man, Dib, Plumps... etc.
* PhysicalGod: The Hitoshura and Shuma Gorath, ditto with Raiden, Shao Kahn and Celestia. Plus Angra Mainyu. Cloud becomes one after Azathoth screws with him several times.
** And now the three Hylian goddesses and Majora can be counted as well.
* PlayingWithSyringes: A younger [[ButtMonkey Cloud]] from an alternate timeline was unlucky to be in the room at the same time as Hojo. Things did not end well, and when Gordon found out what had been done to him, [[PapaWolf he was not pleased]].
** Later, after the trial with Azathoth, alpha-timeline!Cloud finds the doomed universe that Cloud was in, and, after merging with his alternate self, shows up with the tennis ball Gordon had given him all those years ago, thanking Gordon for what he did.
* PoorCommunicationKills: There are two [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Masters]] in the Room - [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure Shizuka Joestar]] and [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Homura Akemi]]. Neither of them has any actual wish to fight the other, but their Servants led them to suspect that the other Master is plotting against them. As such, there seems to be apprehension developing between the two.
** Ultimately [[AvertedTrope averted]] with a mini-PeaceConference.
** Further averted when Shirou Emiya was introduced and Tallis became another Master; the other Masters just confirmed that they have no will to fight each other as quickly as they could.
* PrecisionFStrike: Daisy, of all people, drops two f-bombs in a row when the Planet is destroyed and Cloud dies as a result.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Cloud gives a [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12983510570A63380100&page=6646 long one]] to [[SmugSnake Penti]] and [[{{Jerkass}} Czer]] that continues for several pages after he starts messing around with Daisy after the latter hadn't even seen him for month -- years, even, [[TimeyWimeyBall from her perspective. ]]
** Gilda gives one of her own to Griff.
* RedOniBlueOni: Dante and Cloud, and John and Dave.
* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Suddenly, duckies! Which then proceeded to fill the room, leading to a massive ducksplosion (that's a word now).
** It then happened again, almost 1,500 pages later.
*** Gordon Freeman adopted a duck and named [[YourTomcatIsPregnant her]] Eli.
** Pikachu.
* RunningGag: [[DynamicEntry Those poor windows....]]
** [[AnnoyingVideoGameHelper "Would you like help?"]]
** [[ButtMonkey "Being Cloud is suffering."]]
*** [[BreakThemByTalking Which suddenly stops being funny when Hazama uses it.]]
** "There's a sign. Why does nobody ever read the sign?"
* ShootTheDog: [[spoiler: Takao, when he kills Tsubaki.]]
* SlapSlapKiss: Tifa, to Cloud. Frequently.
* SlasherSmile: The [=RPers=], or one [=RPer=] [[@/{{GameSpazzer}}in particular.]]
** Make that [[@/DeathChariot two.]]
*** [[@/FergardStratoavis Three.]]
* SleepyHead: Daisy and several other characters are prone to falling asleep at the drop of a hat.
* SomethingThatBeginsWithBoring: Done when time gets stopped briefly and everyone is stuck.
* SpeakNowOrForeverHoldYourPeace: Played with during [[{{Squick}} Makoto's (kind of) and Kotonoha's wedding]]:
-->'''Cloud:''' If there are any objections to this union, keep it to yourself, because tough fucking shit.
-->'''Rosarita:''' I'm sorry, Mr. Strife, but that's just ridiculous. She's marrying a severed head...
-->'''Cloud:''' Oi. I said keep it to yourself.
* StalkerWithACrush: The Courier, to Cloud.
* {{Steampunk}}[=/=]{{Magitek}}[=/=]{{Technobabble}}: Used frequently to explain... half the things that happen, really.
** Spouted by Tesla, the Doctor and Cloud often.
* StringyHairedGhostGirl: Alma Wade
* StylisticSuck:
** Webcomic/SweetBroAndHellaJeff, the two massive tools from the [[HumorMode world famous]] comic we all know and love.
** Clout Storf, Slippyrot, and Sac Fyar, three bastardized VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII characters.
** Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way from the infamous MyImmortal.
* SweetDreamsFuel: Daisy, who practically runs on {{Moe}} and many of @/LilQueenDaisy's other characters. Also Pikachu, who is very cheerful and always willing to draw a picture for his friends.
* TalkingIsAFreeAction
* TeamPet: While technically Clippit's, The Elephant could be seen as this. Later, Plumps the [[{{Pokemon}} Oshawott.]]
* TenMinuteRetirement: Averted with Cloud. Got fed up and left for over a month, and still isn't officially "back" yet.
* TimeAbyss: Happens to Cloud.
* TimeyWimeyBall: Sometimes, characters from the same series appear from different points in the timelines, sometimes leading to parallel universes. Sometimes, it's even the same character.
* TheDogBitesBack: Cloud rises up against Azathoth and actually succeeds in killing him.
* ThoseTwoGuys: Roy and Ludwig. They will go at each other for their faults and slip-ups, but it seems they do care for each other.
* {{Troll}}: Fergard Stratoavis' [[VideoGame/BlazBlue Hazama]] lives and breathes trollery. He even uses assholish emotes, for crying out loud.
** Higginbid's DOLAN also loves screwing with people.
** All of those are however topped by [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Discord]] and by several orders of magnitude as well, what with the chaos he's able to bring in span of few seconds.
** ''ZELRETCH.''
** Majora, to the point where she ''faked her own death'' just to screw with people.
** Xellos loves to mess around, up to the point where it's not even funny.
* TomatoInTheMirror: Emerl finds out what he is -- a gizoid, a weapon created by an ancient civilization. It takes quite a bit of doing to calm him down.
* UnspokenPlanGuarantee: Used by Cloud and Boris to assist in taking down the Traveller.
** A semi-meta example, as explaining the plan would inform the antagonist's player as well.
* VomitIndiscretionShot: [[HyperboleAndAHalf Simple Dog]] is prone to randomly throwing up [[{{Squick}} and then eating it again]].
* WebcomicTime: Lampshaded by Cloud somewhere along the lines of:
--> "Maybe it's just me, but the past few weeks I've been in that room somehow feel like months. It's weird."
* WideEyedIdealist: Examples include Rennor, Pikachu, Daisy Sue, Emerl, Selphie, and Rock.
* YouAllMeetInAnInn
* YouDoNOTWantToKnow: [[VideoGame/MegaManZero Zero]] says this to [[VideoGame/MegaManX Zero]] after [[VideoGame/MegaManX Zero]] asks how X is doing.



* YourCheatingHeart: Pentigan had an affair with a [[{{Squick}} gender-bent Czer,]] cheating on his then-girlfriend, Daisy Sue.
** Griff cheated on Shizune with Majora for a while. He is eventually found out, but still shows signs of romantic intentions with Majora.
* ZombieApocalypse: [[Webcomic/BrawlInTheFamily WApocalypse]] actually. It starts on [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12983510570A63380100&page=1433 page 1433]].

Backing out list of rules; that one should go into the forum thread, not on a public wiki page


In the game, all avatars are together in a room where they interact together. It originally started out a fun, lighthearted thread, but got darker and more like a Forum RP. As a result, the game was split into two different threads, the less structured version called the FG as it was once located in the Forum Games section., and [[Roleplay/OurAvatarsWereInARoomTogetherTheContinuation the plot-y version]] called the RP as it was created in the Roleplaying Section. The continuity here is looser than in the Forum RP. It can be found [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13236601070A71890800&page=1 here.]]

The rules are as follows:

!Rules

* NO RAPE. This should go without saying.
* NO PLOT. If any plot bunnies should spawn, make sure they stay bunnies -- i.e.: ''small.''
* NO GODMODDING. Can't believe I actually have to make a rule for this...
* This game is meant for interaction, so interact. Large walls of text within one's own characters is highly discouraged.
* IC is your friend. Stick to it!
* Try to respect the wishes of other players. If someone doesn't want something done to their character, don't do it.
* Fanservice for the sake of fanservice is prohibited. If the sole point of the character/scenario you are using is to indulge in your fetish, we will ask you to stop, or revise said character/scenario. If you become subject to questioning about this rule, we will ask you to provide proof that you are not violating it.

!'''Addendum:''' We have a one-strike-you're-out policy regarding these rules. Break them and you ''will'' be told to leave. You have been warned.

!Additional tips to make the roleplaying experience fun for all can be found [[RoleplayingTips/OurAvatarsAreInARoomTogether here.]]

[[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12983510570A63380100 Our avatars are in a room together]] is a [[PlayByPostGame Forum Game]] on the TVTropesForum which was started by @/Fuzy2K on the 22[[superscript:nd]] of February, 2011 and had reached 16,300+ posts by mid-December of the same year, and nearly thrice that by the one year mark. The game is much like the We Are Our Avatars RP, but takes place in the same room where all the avatars are in.
