[OOC] Myriad Reality

[Etcetera]

That sounds like Fandom and Discord RPs to me.

@ZAVAZggg

MR is very similar to Discord RPs, with a bit more depth. But we like pagination, so we're here.

Fortunately, here there's no actual GM, so the direction it takes is based on all of us respecting each others' ideas.

@Etcetera

Exactly its similar that we all add to the story just as with that one ^^

And yet it was on this site, but as i said that was years ago, can't remember how long
I ended up eventually stopping to visit this site, went to discord myself and in time took a long rp break
But i for some reason felt like looking back here and now here we are haha

[DELETED jdl3932]

Well I meant it's more like those RPs in the sense that the players don't know how to write. They just throw out one action event after the other with no moments for pause or development.

I would disagree with that notion. I've seen various members of MR write extremely well—it just happens to be the case that this isn't a book. There's also a lot of time for character development without action sequences going, but focused on dialogue rather than thought and description, kind of like a movie.

Right, but I meant the RP that Drake was referring to. If it were this one, I wouldn't be here.

I've played in enough balls to the walls RPs like that to have a very strong hatred for them.

Ah, I see what you mean now—that clears it up. Fortunately, RPG has a lot of content, some of which I like more than others. But there's something for everyone.

@ZAVAZggg

I am not that good at explaining so i may have messed up a bit haha
That one actually had enough development, main plot, character and more
But that might have largely been cause we were a pretty tight group that also communicated outside the forum and there were other rules to speed stuff up as well
It was set up rather well
But yeah like etxetera said, each person has his / her own taste haha

Made another animation.

I like this one. You might enjoy the short game "Marble Marcher," which is a similar concept in real-time.

@Etcetera

Mhm! I've read the rules and guidelines!
There's just one teenie weenie thing-
I write in 3rd person,and I don't know if that's allowed here-
If it isn't, that's totally fine!

@Bloopie

Yeah, ours is a bit different in the sense that we only use first person. Everything you write is assumed to be dialogue, and everything in action symbols (asterisks) is supposed to be an action as if viewed from a camera. That can be in either first or third person, but usually the subject is removed, since we all know who the subject is anyway. For example,

*Runs up to the group*
Hey there!

Alternatively,
*I run up to the group*
What's up?

If that works for you, let me know if you have any questions or ideas.

[Bloopie]

Ya it works! Thank you so much!
I do have a question about adding characters.
Do we put the form in the reply box???
