If I used Asura instead of Holly...

1) Who would be disappointed?

2) Would I have to nerf him?

Hm.... Jay?

Chihiro from Spirited Away?

@Jam: Then people might get into a race to see if they can enter their subplot first.

-would not be disappointed-

Oh, heck yes, you'd have to nerf him. Just have him slightly higher than Arena levels, and you'll be good, I think.

but i just explained why it works in the fg and not in an rp format

and if you just don't have any forward motion, then why aren't you just doing it in the fg

i mean it's not like you need some epic grandiose and complex plot for a subplot

its primary purpose is just to give the rp something to do

but it is still an RP, and as such there has to be a unified goal at least some people in the group have to work towards, otherwise it's just the fg

aimlessness is bad when the entire point of the very concept of storytelling is aim

...Hm.

Okay, yeah, you do have a point there.

...Maybe we could just do this until we decide on someone to GM a subplot?

I'd honestly think Holly would be more fun, but if you prefer Asura then do it.

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

Because it doesn't work in the FG. Do you know how long I sat there shitposting/explaining to people that just walked in what was going on while you did your private thing in space (not in the room) with Tats? Avatars in a room. Period. No plot. The RP has the same format, only we can leave the room and develop the plot.

@Pyro: I did consider Jay, actually, seeing as how he was there before. Chihiro would only work if I hadn't swapped out Haku for Alpha after ten pages.

What Spaz said.

Let's figure this out before we start.

Here's my suggestion:

We start with no-GM.

If we get dissatisfied, we choose one later on.

This gives us time to find our feet with this new format and see if it's viable.

#108292: May 19th 2013 at 5:51:25 PM

wait what

so a no-gm format doesn't work because it does

the wording of that post is confusing

and i'm fairly certain the format of the RP and the FG are vastly different, as they should be

the room itself in the rp is basically the equivalent of a loading screen where our characters just fart about until a new GM is picked and the next plot starts

which is why the RP is titled Our Avatars Were in a Room

if we're just going to make the RP into the FG except everyone is off doing their own thing then i just don't see much of a point in having the RP

Well, this was an unexpected development.

Is this the reason the RP is going back to the Room now all of a sudden?

I'm... not actually sure what you're saying, Duffy.

The RP was created so we could develop accidental plot bunnies that would spawn in the format of the FG, but couldn't actually develop. Us voting on GMs, believe it or not, is an optional thing we picked up later, but not actually necessary. You joined during the voting days, as did everyone else here sans Pyro and I. But we never needed a poll. It was just something to do as an emergency in case we experienced a lull with no new accidental plot bunnies.

I know who I'm using, by the way.

It's called that because we couldn't think of a better title and we were in a hurry, and I was too much of a pussy to suggest the one I was thinking of, Voidbound.
