”Goooooooooood morning world! I’m your host Eric Blyton!
Over the past 6 months our panel of dedicated judges have been roaming each and every American state in search of one thing, talent. Over this time they’ve selected 24 of the country’s most talented teenagers, all showing great potential in one art or another. We’ll give them specialist training in their art as well equip them for their future in the spotlight. We will be assisting them in thriving and gaining status. But with their image and the prize of $100,000 on top of a guarantee to display their art in front of thousands on the line will they live up to fame? Burnout? Or crash under the pressure?
Got your interest? Here’s a brief aimed more toward participants Over the past 6 months three high-statused celebrities have been holding auditions over the country to find the artistic prodigies of America. You’re one of them, you talented teen! Over the next few months you’ll be living together in fame manor here you’ll take regularly scheduled classes in your art. You’ll get publicity, opportunities to display your art and paparazzi. But because fame isn’t enough pressure after the first 2 weeks each competitor will have the chance to display their art weekly. From there each panel member will give you a score out of 10. The 4 lowest-scoring competitors will rely on the people of the country to keep them in the competition. The two with the most votes are safe and the other 2 unfortunates have to leave Fame Manor and their chance of winning $100,000 and a guaranteed opportunity to display their art in a professional setting to thousands!
Here’s how it works
Eliminations:
Yes, characters are eliminated and your most probably will. If you have a problem with this this is not a roleplay for you. No we have that settled to the point of this hider. Now these characters are chosen at random. When your character is accepted I will give a number to place on the upper left corner of your CS (please ensure you do this). Dice rolls will determine who is eliminated and GMs will determine the two who stay. Dice rolls will be done on RPG so you can verify there’s not cheating or favouritism or whatever. (You can see who’s eliminated before the post goes up too but what fun is that?) What do I do when I have no characters left in the running? When all your characters are eliminated you have 2 options; 1. Leave the IC completely until your character is called back for some reason if they are (all characters may have the opportunity to return for the final but that’s something that I’ll consider closer to that point) and just lurk or whatever it is you want to do (feel completely free to stay active in the OOC) or; 2. Continue in the IC as NPC/side characters (it takes a whole crew to run a reality TV program!) Are there any exceptions from the system? The only exceptions to this system is if; 1. Both of a RPers characters are eliminated in the same round, a reroll will be mad to replace the second character rolled. The only point both of a RPers characters can be rolled at once is hen e get to the final 4. 2. A RPer decides they want (or have to) leave the RP/withdraw a character and have no intention to (or can’t) surrender their character to another RPer (this is another case that both of a RPers characters can be eliminated at once). Your remaining characters will be eliminated at the next elimination (unless you cause them to do something reckless and rule-breaking to get them kicked out, which I personally think will be much more entertaining and fun, either ay they’d be counted as eliminated)
What I am looking for!
co-GMs
I'm looking for 2 keen, understanding and fun-loving Co-GMs! What to co-GM this RP? This is what I require/would like of you.
First off I need you to be able to comply with all the participants requirements (including having a character or 2 :3)
To also hold a 2nd/3rd character of one of the panel.
I need you to be an understanding and caring co-GM but with a will to continue the RP
To stay active in the OOC and IC as much as reasonably possible. Now I understand sometimes life is lifey and gets in the way, if that happens and you get busy for a bit I totally understand! It happens, unfortunately we have other things but RPG to attend to.
A decent RPer
Experience preferred but not required. This is my first well-formed, well-written RP I've GM'd and anyone happy to give advice and give me a hand would be amazing!
Participants
interest (duh!)
Preferably play 2 characters but if you want to play one that's fine
I'd like a nice mix of male and female, it doesn't have to be completely even but I'd like at least a few if both!
About two well-written paragraphs per a character per a post, however, I understand sometimes one paragraph is all that's possible in some situations but generally I'd prefer at least 2.
Activity in the IC (and preferably in the OOC too. I don't bite, I swear! (She says while Love Bites (So Do I) is stuck in her head XD) I understand sometimes life makes it difficult and too hard to do stuff and if that's the case there's no problem! Ish happens
No making your characters perfect at every art. Yes, people are multitalented but can we please not have, let's say, an actor who also is stated to be more talented than all the singers and dancers in their own area. No. Now the said actor can display a skill in vocal and dance, no problem, but not to the standard of people who's core area it is. No stating your character is better than the rest in an area place.
Enjoy yourself! Seriously, have fun. Let your characters go crazy, run riot and have fun! These are teens allowed to focus on what they love in a bigass mansion. Seriously, as long as you comply with the rules have fun with it!
Rules
I know, boring, but we gotta have them
~ Save the drama for the OC ~ No god-modding, overpowered or unnaturally skilled characters ~ romance is allowed but sexual scenes are to either be fade-to-black or done by PM. ~ Keep it PG-13 please. ~ Feel free to bring in NPCs, they don't need a form, just work some description of them into your first post using them ~ The 'main' parts should be reserved before you make a form to lower the chance of disappointment, I'll keep the first post updated for easy finding :). After you reserve your character you'll have 5 days to post your form but I'm willing to extend this if you can't do so in the time for good reason (but I can only hold it off for so long) - Forms to be posted in OOC for approval ~ The most important thing- enjoy yourself ^-^. I'm not a very strict GM and I'm quite in easygoing person, I won't kick you out go off at you unless absolutely necessary, ask anyone in chat, I'm not a scary person ;) (but they'll probably say I am now 'cus I wrote this XD)
Ok, if I find enough interest this thingy will be prettified with pictures and pretty banners. It'll also have open parts and a CS form and stuff on the post :). Any interest? Any questions?
@Ally610 Hey great to see the interest! I'll lookinto choosing co-GMs for certain when I have enough interest to know this can go ahead but I'd love to have you onboard!
Hey Souffle, I'm interested and willing to help if needed. Few questions first, is two characters the max here and what is the age limit? As sometimes you can have talented children as well. I was thinking of making a talented child.
Great to see your interest! It's been too long since we've RP'd together! For the moment 2 participant characters are the max though that may change depending on the response but if you give a good reason as to why you zhould have more I can bend the rules a bit
The age limit's 12-18, however, if you want to make some cutesy 10/11(/whatever) year old who swaggered into auditions anyway and blew the judges away I can make an exception for your character :)
@Ally610@The One I'm thinking of making a thread in the actual RP side also as that sometime draws attention interest checks don't, what do you 2 think?
