Discuss the RP here, or any other topics that come up!

Speaking of the RP, i'd like to pose a question to you all. After reading through the initial post i made in the signups, What excites you most about this RP?

For returning players, i'll ask another question: What did you like best about the first RP, and what do you hope to see improvement on in the sequel?

In general, it's the concept. Hopefully, I'll be able to get into this RP right away, and improve my writing.

How much of the last RP should I read?

The only true thing you needed to know was given in the initial signup post, but if for nothing else you could read the last RP for fun. It's 2450 posts long, to my knowledge.

Be aware that there are serious pacing issues in the beginning, though. It was my first time. Also, we've used the discussion thread to make small talk with each other. Just don't use it to gossip, and we won't have any problems. It makes everyone feel a little more human, even me.

Now, back to Paragon's question. I would consider this RP an excellent writing exercise because Bringing Everybody Down To Normal*

and removing memories can help you figure out what makes your character tick without the past's baggage hanging on them. And what's left at my last character's core? Approval!

As a heads-up: I will NOT be able to have regular computer access until the 29th of August. Before then, you'll be able to expect minimal activity from me.

[up][up][up] I should've kept that in mind before creating Redd, but since I like the concept of him, I'm keeping him.

When is the RP starting again?

When Motree and I get our school-issued laptops back; August 29th. Or the 30th. I'm not entirely sure, because only freshmen have to show up on the first day, and I'm not totally sure when this day is.

Bumping this up.

We'll probably be delayed yet again, but i'm trying to do everything in my power to get the RP started ASAP.

Sorry, guys. I only just found that this thread had been created.

It's kind of funny. Sufficiently advanced stupidity is like sufficiently advanced science; eventually, you find something you can't solve.

I have a question, too- Aaron, do you want me to make a separate wiki page for A Game Of Truths, or are we just keeping it all on the A Game Of Chance page? Or is this my decision?

[up] I'm... not sure.

We could make a second page for it and then if we have a third, perhaps A Game Of Lies, we could make a main page, like an index, for the series.

Since there weren't a whole lot of tropes for last season, it might be more economical to just keep them together and put in folders and redirects. I've already added folders on the character sheet.

Neopie, I'm not at liberty to answer that.

Crystal, I'm leaning towards making a new page, but if you've already started revamping the old one then we'll just use that.

If anyone feels like combing through signups, discussion threads and RP threads for tropes, feel free to do so. Specifically A Go C, of course.

Dragon, interesting suggestion for a name, I'll have to remember that one.

Okay! We have our redirect, the main page has been tweaked, folders have been added, and tropes have been sorted. And it took me about twenty minutes on my 3DS, where you can't copypaste anything.

Good night.

I have the same problem on my phone. AND I can't scroll without gratuitous enter. I feel your pain.

So, I dunno about you guys, but I'm looking forward to some paranoia-inducing tense thriller-style action. Perhaps somewhat less for me, since I imagine playing a villain might take the edge off things a bit. Then again, the baddies are hunted, so maybe not?

Yep. You have two (and perhaps even three) factions who want you all gone, so...

Why am I having a pipe dream of running one of the factions in the next RP?

By the way, is there a group that does surveillance for the Game?
