My name is Lord Terrible, and you might know me from such forums as BWBoards! I am partially a mod with the purpose of supervising and enhancing your RP'ing experience here! I have this idea for a roleplaying system... I am practically the game master. It would be regular roleplay, like that of the Good/Evil/Neutral threads at bwboards, with the exception of me having the power to edit people's posts, and make additions, improvements or alterations to the unfolding of the storylines. I would be a peripheral character, not interfering with the action unless godmodding takes place, for example. Basically I only ensure that everyone is having fun, in a good clean way I'm a good guy. I won't abuse my modly /godly powers... much... All we need is a topic for a roleplaying scenario. Or we could make a continuous one, like BWBoards, where one plays himself and keeps the character throughout. So what do you say?

I am deeply interested. Here's something we did on Miracle Sunrise. It was quite fun, but fizzled out as people stopped caring. Which was a shame, 'cos I was enjoying myself... You may need to register to see that, BTW.

Hmm... I don't really know whether I like the idea of the "leader"... The same with just changing someone's post...
Cause that could be really annoying. You kill someone after an epic battle, and the leader decides: "Oh! HE may not die!" And changes the post to being bashed back...
I like Ammy's idea... It'll be thinking work as well...
But I might join if it's nice... I'd use the Good, Neutral, and Evil threads then...
All we'd need to start would be AT LEAST 1 good god, one evil, and if we really want some fun, one Neutral god...
If neccesary, I could be neutral, since I'm officially Neutral-Good...
Some extra ideas:
Getting a Good, Evil and Neutral thread could confuse other non-B&W members later... You might want to think of putting it in a B&W RP board...
Let people themselves make their own threads from the first post...
No former powers, all begin as newbies, without any weapons...
You might like to make a map of the area...
And might be a good idea, also getting real cities to power you in the RP boards... Could be handy for sending in armies if we ever get that far. It could be fun to let your followers aid in the defence... Arrows away! Get those catapults up there!
Might be more interesting then the turrets... You should also think of this... Turrets or not?
Also, think of creature rules!
Oh, and I'd prefer no real topic... Just keep your character...
You will only mod the B&W RP threads (good, neutral and evil), won't you? Cause I'd hate to have to complain when you'd barge in in another RP thread, and change stuff there!
Improve that Miracle Sunrise! I',m not gonna register just so I can check it once! Let all enter!

Solar, you do not trust me. I said I was only going to interfere in cases where gameplay was compromised. Here's what I described for Kaiser:
Me: so if KRG goes "I shoot a clip of acid bullets after you, and you are hit 5 times in the stomach and now lay bleeding on the ground Kaiser: lol! Me: I edit his post, and makes another saying what really happened Me: "KRG fires away madly at Person X, strafing his arm lightly, KRG now defenseless as his clip is empty"
Also, I never suggested a B&W-board style RP. There is so much more to it than that. I only mentioned the continuous way as a method of RP'ing, instead of minor scenarios like Ammy's, which will eventually end.
And I will only be the gamemaster in the threads designated for it.

Improve that Miracle Sunrise! I',m not gonna register just so I can check it once! Let all enter! I'm working on that. The board's chief administrator is a bit over-zealous though so don't consider it a sure-fire thing.] I'm fighting for the power of Guests! May all be welcome in the Legion!

I'm intending to end up in a paradise of powers where you can fight or have peace just like in the b&w boards, just not as gods (though you can increase your powers eventually). I just put that scroll in it to have a start and a prologue, it's much more attractive that way , plus then I can riddle you .

Seems discussion ground to a halt here : / Wanna do this or not? It's the same principle of D&D, with the gamemaster just making sure everything's going the way it's supposed to... And if so, will it be singular scenarios (like Ammy's), or a continuous scenario, like the BWbooard one, with all due quests and such. Remember, it doesn't have to be someone vs. someone else, the concept of a GM enables you all to unite against a common foe, controlled by me

It looks Good enough... Most interested in Ammy Rp though!;D
But if you do it, do it good... And don't forget time, what the chars are (gods/humans)... Etc.

We're all waiting for you to tell us to start LordT!
Perhaps it could all take place place in one "realm" and in this "realm" we could find quests that exist.
e.g. In the city of X a villager informs me that the Vampire King of Murdoch has a scepte of ultimate doom hidden in his dungeon at location Z. I shall quest there!
*Is killed by the vastly more powerful vampire guards*
*Respawns*
Oh so you want to play rough ey?
*Killed again*
etc
That way its partially continous, but somethind different each time

Yeah ok, we'll just play it safe, with the tried-and-tested fantasy world ;D I'll get to work then... vendor inventories and prices, spells, quests... I'll return when ready

Need not be a fantasy world. Only used it as an example. You're welcome to do absolutely anything!

Ok then, but I spent time making this here map, so we better damn use that whatever we do!! ;D I don't want to be the one deciding everything about the game, after all, you're the ones that are going to be playing it So what do you feel like... we could have a samurai-ish theme? Or anything we feel like really...
