Re: SBS Notice Board

What, for doing all your work for you?

Also, I have a concept in mind, going to wait until I get home to type it out though, its gonna be a doozie if I can remember all the backstory that running through my head :)

Re: SBS Notice Board

As with several other Roleplays on the forum, I intend on joining this. I get the feeling I may be extending myself a bit far... but they're all too good to give up on. Snake, my character, should be PM'ed to Nunu sometime within the next few weeks, as I had already completed half of it while I was on the other forum.

Re: SBS Notice Board

Are you going to treat this as a casual roleplay? Or will you try to convert it to a semi-lit+ roleplay? :p

...Semi-what? *looks it up*

Oh, haha. :mad: You made a funny. :p

</joke>

<srs bsns=spelling>
...Though in all seriousness, if anyone states that they want/do not mind having their posts critiqued and/or optimized, I will attempt to do so (Assuming that I have the time... Which, honestly, is not looking likely at the moment, considering all the roleplays + Uni...)

Besides, most of the posts made by the remaining players are significantly literate anyway; certainly enough so for proper understanding of what they are attempting to convey.

Re: SBS Notice Board

Generally I try to stay literate, however due to a recent drain of creativity fluids I've been reduced to badly structured dialogue in opposed to my normal posts. Then again, I don't push myself as hard for SBS in comparison to the extent I go to for other roleplays I'm in so...

(Other roleplays require me to write about 1-2 pages per post at minimum, so I use this one to relax on the side...)

Literate =/= large post, and there's nothing wrong with your dialogue, or being dialogue heavy in general - in fact, I find I tend to be too heavy on actions, which is far more detrimental than having a lot of dialogue.

*twitches*

T..that's just...

...holy crap. I only write 1-2 pages on my rants and criticisms for whole stories. The idea of writing up 1-2 pages for each post...

*passes out*

Not kidding there, I have a Microsoft word document over 200 pages from a roleplay I've been in. And they're all MY posts.

Probably so actually. :V Most of us have been bored enough to actually write one-shots/short stories on the side while roleplaying.

Re: SBS Notice Board

How can you actually roleplay with posts that long anyway? Unless its a roleplay where one player is in a library and the other is a book, I don't see how that works. I've always considered it one of the flaws of online/text based roleplays that characters often end up taking turns to respond to five different questions at a time. It sounds unnatural. Same as there's only so much action you can describe at any one time without automatically god-modding.

If you've got a lot of discussions between own characters, or solo actions, then that works. But for general role play? How...

Resolved by discussing with each other out of the roleplay for ages, asking for permission to do this action and that action... etc. But yeah, it does get monotonous at times.

*Does a little jig*

No, this doesnt mean Im back on permanently, just posting to say while I've got the time that act as if Art and Emily have never been in the game as I'm taking them out and replacing them with Alex the Pokemon Trainer. He'll be slightly different from last time though.

Re: SBS Notice Board

I am disinclined to double post in a game thread, so instead I'll ask where everyone went.

And I'm waiting on the others to post, since I had the last thread in town.
