I sent Shoh a pm.

And seriously, my average post length on this site is two paragraphs. Four's my all time maximum. I may have taken a long hiatus where I wrote a couple of short stories and a full 38,000 word story, but yeah. When it comes to RPing on this site, I've never been near advanced standard.

@Shohmyoh So yeah, I don't think I'll be able to join this as a player this time around after all. I will definitely be lurking around and waiting for a round two, but for now I really need to put a little more effort into my own life.

(it's mostly getting money...)

I don't think I'd be able to put in all the time appropriate of an idea this rad, and I feel it's unfair of me to ask you to wait when p much everyone else here is ready to get started (although it is cool of you that you actually did wait!) Sorry if I caused any inconveniences.

@corneredbliss Thx good vibes totes received.

I'm going to hang around and read this as you guys go though, if y'all don't mind. It's rare that you see RPs with interesting premises that have clear set ending conditions. I think this will do really well, especially judging by the quality of the CSs' so far.

@Darcs I understand, and hope things work out for you. Feel free to check out the thread when you can! And good luck with your own RP, by the way. Looks interesting.

I'm sending @Blue Dog a PM to see if he's still interested. And @Whitestar19, you can be next in line if another spot opens up, if you like.

@Shohmyoh

I would love to, but unfortunately, I've joined a bunch of RPs at the moment. If there is someone after me, then they may go ahead. Good luck with this RP though! It seemed really interesting.

Why thank you!

And glad you've got an idea you like, Silver Carrot!

Blue Dog will be joining us, so I'll edit the roster accordingly.

So, I'll ask you guys the same question I ask just about everyone I meet: what kind of music do you like?

I usually switch up what I listen to every month or so. Right now I'm digging prog rock, been listening to a lot of Yes and King Crimson lately.

I think everyone had a prog rock phase. Mars Volta used to be my jam. Just don't dig too deep, Shoh. Eventually you find yourself listening to hour long drone songs just to feel normal.

I used to be one of those classic rock guys where music stopped being made around 1982. These days I try to stay with newer releases on the more "indie" side of things, although I've been falling behind lately. Only got a handful of new albums last year. I'd say my taste nowadays tend to lean towards either folksy or baroque rock, some electronica, and punk. Been listening to the newest Titus Andronicus album that came out the other day. So good!

Oooh yes absolutely Yes. I have such a soft spot for them haha, and they're amazing of course. I have a chance to see them sometime in August, hopefully that goes through.

You know, I've been falling behind lately, too. Kind of a bummer, but I'll catch up eventually. Lately I've been (re)listening to a lot of 90s-2000s grunge/alt rock (i.e. Audioslave, Live, Tame Impala).

I've been persuaded into listening to a lot of Touhou music lately by a friend, so that's a thing. Otherwise, I like to dabble in super angsty punk rock because it's awesome. <<
Rise Against remains in my favourite bands, but um...
Someone on the chat shared something called Postmodern Jukebox with us earlier, they're a band that do vintage covers of modern songs.
I happen to be unable to get enough.

Man, you guys have good taste. I don't think I'm in too much danger Atrophy, as much as I love Crimso some of their stuff is too weird and discordant even for me.

Hope you get to see Yes Bliss! I've only listened to Fragile and 90125 so far, but they're both damn good.

Been quite a while since I've heard Rise Against. I should give them another listen.

I'm a classic rock kinda guy at heart, but I've broadened my horizons quite a bit the past few years. Even got pretty deep into hip hop, something I never thought I'd say.

@Shohmyoh Oh my goodness you must give Close to the Edge and The Yes Album a listen when you get a chance. My favorites, aside from Fragile. Funny enough the three of them came out one right after the other - probably why I like them so much.

I decided to write a sample character based on my own rules. Most of it is done but I'll have to type up and edit in the rest when I get off work tonight.

@Blue Dog @Silver Carrot Maybe this will give you some ideas? Even if not, this was fun to do!

I have ideas, but my job as a night shift leaves me really tired from 3pm-8pm (from when I wake up to when I get ready to leave again.)

Plus I was at the cinema today.

Fingers crossed I'll have enough free time to do my CS tomorrow.

If my CS isn't done by tomorrow, consider me dropped out, as that means I won't be able to contribute enough with my current lifestyle.

Well, I hope that won't be the case but I'll hold you to it.

I do have a back-up plan to keep this thing moving.

Alright, here's how I'm gonna proceed.

When I wake up in the morning I'm gonna open the thread for new applicants to fill Silver Carrot's spot, but I'm not gonna let someone have the spot until I see a full character application and accept it. Whoever gets a satisfactory application in first will get the spot.

Also @Blue Dog please let me know if you're still interested in this.

Anyone who's already got a character, feel free to go ahead and put up your first post if you want to. It's totally up to you. I apologize for the delay thus far. The main problem is that this RP can't function with only 3 characters. I could do some tweaking and go with 4 instead of 5 if it's necessary, but 5 is what I planned around and would be ideal.

I have 7 trial ideas so far that I've plotted out and tested, and I've got a skeleton script for my next two posts, so once this gets underway things should proceed much more smoothly.

The thread's open for applicants now.

Also holy triple post batman.

Also also I listened to the Yes album Bliss, it's quite good! 'I've Seen All Good People' is probably the song I liked best

Yay! Mhm, my favorite Yes song by far. Glad I could spread the love :)

Totally fine with the delay. To be honest been quite out of it for the past week, but I'll definitely try to get a post up sometime early in the week. Still very much in for this.

Pfft, I forgot to finish my sample character. I wrote the last part after a long ass day at work and it came out kinda sloppy, so I wanted to go back and rewrite the backstory and personality. I'll finish it soon and edit it into the character section, maybe it will help out potential players.
