A colleague here and I are considering starting a new open world/slice of life game in the Advanced or maybe Casual section. This game will be of a familiar tone and concept to what you may have seen or participated in before, but with a more focused and involved approach from the leadership. There is no magic or dystopian angle for those of you reading this that may not be familiar. It’s simply a game of everyday people living out their lives in a fictional/fun city setting. Drama, romance, bring the world to life how you want it to be.

If there’s enough interest we will be introducing a completely fresh setting with new locations and perhaps a few unexpected twists and turns just to spice things up and keep interest alive and new membership flowing. We would be wide open to suggestions and we want this to be a community project. Everyone is invited to take as much stake in the game as they please. Your plans/input/ideas are going to be valued, i.e., you can expect things like time skips and major events to be discussed in the OOC openly and feedback encouraged.

It is not our intention to thumb the nose at past games, but to continue a genre and setting that we were truly enjoying. We want you to know that we’re committed to sticking with the game and if you decide to join then know that we would like a similar commitment from you as well. We’re not asking for a blood oath here, but if you wish to join we ask that you please consider a long-term approach for your perspective character rather than just a single scene that you may be envisioning that lasts a few posts and then fades.

Hello, a second player spawns.

So to sum all this up, we just want to create a Slice of life RP, we aint going to vanish like ghosts and are committed to making a fun RP for everyone as long as they want to play with us. We both enjoy the genre and want to do things a little bit different, embrace ideas from everyone and also keep it alive with our own to keep things fresh and creative.

So, if you want to join, have any questions please do post, we don't bite! (This Post is certified Vampire free)

@PrinceAlexus

I enjoy Slice of Life roleplays. Will there be any specific plot? How will the GMs keep everyone interacting if things come to a halt?

Peeked my interest. I enjoy a good slice of life.

@QT

Biggest thing for us is keeping people vested in the game so it will really be what you want to make it for your character and for yourself. That being said, we'll try and introduce random events from time to time to stir the pot. From what we've discussed, most of these will be things, good and bad, that annoy or please people in real life: Everything from bad weather or a traffic jam to maybe a character winning the lottery or coming into a long lost inheritance.

As far as a large, over-arching plot, we may have some loose goals, but that does not mean you as a player can't create one for yourself and others that might want to go along. Just for example, maybe your character wants to run for a city office? Or wants to start a business. These are off the top of my head, but you get my point. You can create your own long-term plots or you can have a character that throws parties and drinks his or herself into oblivion every weekend.

OK. So I was the one planning to keep things alive, and bring life to it.

The idea was that every 1-3 time skips we would use more communal events that bring as many charecters into one place, allow interactions outside of smaller groups. Allows for more relationships, rivalries and Ic drama.

Also these events will throw in surprises, changes or such alterations to the general dynamic to keep things alive. These would vary depending on situations that arise and charecters as needed.

That's the idea to keep things moving. Also we going with a rule of sorts that people have to advance things with posts, not sip a coffee for 10 posts.

General plot wise, we where letting people work with there own ideas. However if there's intrest in a over arching plot then one could be worked on.

We are welcome to anyone's ideas and suggestions in making the RP the best one possible.

@QT

Thanks. I hope you enjoy our idea and join us.

@KahleenCuthald

Oops. Seems I got ninjed there.

@Pilatus

If course all in all. The idea can change, grow and adapt to how it best fits the players. We are not set in stone and will evolve.

@Pilatus@PrinceAlexus

I am very much interested in a cute and interesting slice of life RP such as this but without all the ghosting that typically goes on around here. I'm not going to point fingers nor name names but yeah. The thing is though that I'll be unavailable from next week until sometime in early November. I don't suppose it'll be possible for me to drop in later? If not then that's okay. I'm good at dealing with disappointment. All the best.

@TwelveOf8

your welcome to join at any time.
and we all understand everyone has busy lives. it will always be open.

We also need to work on the city more, we have the plans in place etc, just needs work on getting things polished up and converted into our format. we where first gauging interest and seeing if people liked the idea in general.

@PrinceAlexus

That is understandable. Feel free to PM me if you want to brainstorm some ideas. I have a lot of free time right now. If not then whatever. Thanks for the invitation.

@TwelveOf8

You can drop your ideas right here if you like, but if you want to keep them on PM no big deal. Send them to either one of us or both.

@Pilatus

Cool beans! I shall do just that!

@Pilatus Is this still a thing?

@KahleenCuthald

Would be great if it was, but just doesn't look like enough interest right now.

@Pilatus That's unfortunate. I am looking for a good slice of life rp. Oh well

Welcome, yep that's our plan too.
Your in the right place, we just need ernough intresting to justify starting it.

How many people do we need? Are we looking for a large group or like a small tight friend group?

Probbly for a decent person range. We need 4-5 players.

We will be likely allowing secondary characters, one max to make sure theres room for everyone to develop.

More would be better though, we can do small group of course if it's how people like it and it goes.

We are open and willing to flex depending on how things work out.

We would rather adapt and accommodate and have a good RP.

@spooner

@PrinceAlexus Did you try posting the interest check in two forums? General interest and Casual interest? Maybe that way more people spot the Interest Check?

Not yet, but that's a good idea.
I'm on my phone but i can do that at computer if Pallets agrees.

I'm thinking we are looking high casual level.
Not speed posting, few paragraphs min and such..

But not expecting like 500 word min counts, strikes for bad grammar or like I've seen on others. That's just intimidating, and this is for fun not a marked essay.

The lengh is whatever fits the post. Be it 3 paragraphs or 30.
