New lounge RP

[Arashikage]

Okay, DZ said we could have a new lounge RP.  Since this is not jusy my RP, we should all talk about it here.  Like, where is it, who is what canon character, FCs, what's going to happen, what's not going to happen, and things like that.  What do you guys think of a city or town RP?  Or maybe A cruise?

I personally wouldn't mind a scenery change at all. Anything is good for me really, so long as we can use our old characters again.

Of course the rule about "No Fighting" I wish to keep perfectly intact. And as for Canon characters, I would say people could be them, but if they are just going to stop at one point while still playing them, and give no reason to anyone, preferably the new GM, that the Canon character be up for grabs to others who would like to play them.

A great point, we shall see to it that that happens

[CrypticQuery]

:shock: Wow, I missed two days and the RP section almost implodes! .  I wouldn't mind a change in setting either .  Maybe an airport, mall, etc :P

[Guest Mr. Mario]

Hmm...a town RP sounds good...that is depending on the location. (Corneria, I assume?)

[Fluxy]

Yeah, well, that is behind us now and such.

And a main Mall or something close in sounds good. I mean, a town is really spread out, and that seems a bit too big, but that is just me. Something like a world mall center, so more things could be there, seems like a great idea.

[Kursed]

i think  a supercomplex  like a mall with a  hotel or something sounds good.

[Fluxy]

I like this idea as well. Can we get a view of others that like, and are okay with this idea?

[Guest Mr. Mario]

It's great idea. (Maybe I should draw the maps. JK!!)

[Arashikage]

Yeah, a supercomplex sounds good to me

Why no fighting? In an interaction RP, certainly not all characters will get along, and most DEFINITELY not all of them can be "the better man" and walk away.

As for canon characters, I never really did like the involvement of them in a lounge RP. This sort of thing is for OUR characters to develop and learn, and every single one of you argued that in the topics past. Thus, if Fox/Krystal/Peppy/whoever shows up, I vote they are under the exclusive control of the GM.

And a supercomplex sounds decent, maybe I'd like it better if I knew exactly what it was. I do like the idea of a cruise, though. It's more "enclosed" and has more reason for everyone to stick around in one place, as opposed to a hotel or similar establishment (Seriously, who'd pay to stay months at a hotel, when a cruise lasts about that long and is only paid for once. It's expected for people to be there for a while.)

[Fluxy]

Alright, so unless there is some huge revolt about it, it will be a supercomplex.

Now, the thingss we still need to touch base on is the right of using Canon characters, as in who wants to have who, if anyone wants one of them that is, and we need to find out who will be the GM and possibly the side Gm, just in case the GM is not online.

I don't mind being either, I just don't want to take this away from someone who REALLY wants to do it, but all in all, we the users are the ones picking him or her.

As to no fighting, you weren't there for it obviously because the fighting that happened in the hotel and action was over running it WAY too much and easily got out of hand, so as of now, I propose no fighting, or if it is to be done, do it in private RP, then come back with the results. I get what you mean, but the fighting caused WAY more issues than what people think now are causing issues.

And for your ideas on Canon characters, I know what you mean, but in the most part, we all have been using our FC's the most. The only one using a Canon character was Kursed, seeing as the others weren't being used at all for the longest time. Having it limited to one Canon person per player, if anyone wants one, seems like it would be fine with the amount of FC's that get played even more with anyways.

And I get what you mean. A supercomplex is a better place to say your character would be over there longer than a simple hotel.

[Arashikage]

I would like to run for GM, if that's okay.  and the no fighting rule, how about no major fighting that would hijack the RP?  I mean, that way we get some violence when necessary, but it doesn't hijack anything.

So basically no huge shoot outs, but maybe a few fist fights?

[Fluxy]

This is much more understandable, and exactly. No hijaking of the RP, as that IS a rule of RP'ing here. simple ones, as long as it is not frequent and not out of control are fine.

[Arashikage]

Right, if you have a quarrel with a character and your character would hit him in the face, then do so, but don't cause like, 3 different characters to have a huge fight with 4 others, and things like that.  A little bit of violence is fine, but we can't have a huge violent storyline that will hijack the topic

Yeah, but having multiple characters per person is a good way to clutter things and make things hard to follow. That's why I suggest the canon characters be left to the GM, or removed entirely. I also propose that we put a limit on the number of FC's a player can have as well, to keep things reasonable and smooth. I also nominate myself for GM/side GM. 

As for the fighting, what exactly happened last time? It SHOULDN'T be a problem as long as everyone is competent and knows how to RP. It SHOULDN'T cause any big issues as it's all just a story, and certainly all of us can take a few flung fists in stride and use it for depth rather than petty bullshit drama that only bogs the RP down.

Alright, and is a suggestion. And, as you said yourself, if everyone knows how to RP, the ammount of characters shouldn't be an issue. That said, I do agree to not have a huge amount of characters running about at the same time. I suggest you can "Have" Multiple characters in it, just  not your entire cast [unless it is a small amount like mine] out and about.

The whole hotel was being hijaked by the players at that time, causing stuff on purpose that had nothing to do with a hotel. That was the fighting I meant. A simple small brawl here or there I am fine with, so long as it doesn't cause issues, or get more than that, a simple fight. It is hard to explain fully, but it got WAY worse than that, Milky. And yes, it SHOULDN'T cause issues, but the way it was done by others in the past, it did. That is why I bring it up.

And this is why we need a GM who's willing to observe and keep the RP clean. This is partially why I nominated myself, because I know hijack BS when I see it and I'm NOT AFRAID to bring it up, as you people know.

Anyhow, yes. Just as the fighting should be restricted to brawls (Why would a gun be allowed in a public place...?) multiple characters should be limited to 2, maybe three, at a time.

Personnally I think any limit on characters is a bad  idea I don't know many people who can handle 3-4 at a time anyway.

Yes, I agree. And as for GM, we should cover that last, and get the rulings based first. Glad to see you are wanting to do it though.

Yes, just brawls. There are no reasons for guns in a public place [At least for the players that is]. And I agree on the 3 active characters per person rule, as long as for those who have more that they want to play, are allowed to switch in an out in a way to not cause any clogging, or issues [Which I know can easily done and moderated].

Yes, if they want more, they can be rotated in and out. We don't need 20+characters to keep track of, and before anyone argues that we don't have to, the GMs will by principle and the rest of you should just to make things better for everyone. Having factions is okay, but totally ignoring the other factions is bad. This is why we need a limit to the number active at one time. 3 sounds good for the sake of being agreeable, but personally I think 2 would make things easiest. Discuss as you see fit, ladies and gentlemen.

[Arashikage]

3 is fine with me.  I don't see any need for any more at one time.  But if you need to play an NPC or a character with no significance except to help you get past a point(IE to check in, or order something at a resturant), it should not count against those 3 characters

Alright. And I think with the way most people in the hotel posted, 3 should be fine. And I do agree with you about the factions, and switch outs and such.

Now then, since that issue has been covered, I do believe the that it would be okay to start seeing who wants to be the GM really. And I think it would be wise to have two of them.

This way, most likely at least one will be on. And second, it means that nothing will be decided by just one person, but yet by conversation of two people.

That said, I don't mind being one of them. So, if you want to be one of them, and already haven't said so, please do now so we can get an idea of who wants to and such.

Of course. That much should be obvious.
