Comedy is King

[malmshodes]

This rp is not accepting new applicants at the moment.

I love humor and I love writing. I'm not as good at the latter as the former, but that's something I'm hoping to work on, and I'm hoping to find some people on here interested in doing it too. Not sure what exactly I want to do for this rp, just know that I want humorous characters and crazy adventures. Would love to have this as something episodic. None of the episodes would need an end, really. I mean, if we get into something they can keep going, but generally I'd like for us to do a different story every week that could range from anything to fixing an upstairs toilet to battling Cthulhu, or whatever comes to mind. I don't know with any certainty if this should be a 1x1 thing or a group, but I'll put it on here and see if there are any bites.

Here's a small list of some humorous media , in descending order of fondness, that could serve as inspiration. Hopefully this'll help catch interest or jog that special part of the brain that goes "Hey maybe there's something to this. I love that too!"

Diskworld
Futurama
Adventure Time
the Hitchiker's Guide to the galaxy
Venture Bros
Invader Zim
Anything from A. Lee Martinez

Can we be anything we want cause I think you will like the character I have.

[mindpalace]

Hey this sounds cool. Interested!

[Rikuo3]

I'm interested.

[bleedingrose]

Definitely interested!

[GoyaVive]

I'm definitely in!

[malmshodes]

Cool. I think we've got enough for our crew.
So, what I'm thinking is we'll make our characters. I can't think of anything that should be off limits, so use whatever kind of character you'd like just don't go over board and making home OP or anything that goes against basic rp etiquette. As for settings and everything else like I said we'll do it in a episodic way so each week everything well be new. Unless of course anyone can think of any mechanics that they'd like to see pass over from week to week?

Also, I'm brainstorming now so if anyone has any ideas feel free to put in your two cents.

@Blackmist16

Sweet! I love Borderlands 2 & 3. Handsome Jack now there's a villain. I'm fine with him, just change your CS so it matches the CS template for the rp and your good to go.

@DemonTongue

There's still room.

[Sixsmith]

Still room you say? Why not Zoidberg?

[Cuccoruler]

Many of the good comedies actually have a straight man! Someone needs to be the straight man

[Rikuo3]

Can I be like an animal or creature? Kind of like the Cheshire Cat in which I can either be helpful or really annoying, mostly annoying, to all the characters.

@Cuccoruler

Hmmm. Well, I'll make the straight guy if nobody else wants to.

@Rikuo3

Sure, sky's the limit, and then beyond it.... I guess after that you'll just keep on going till you poke the eye of god. At which point it might be prudent to halt, desist, and RLH

[GoyaVive]

If no one else wants to, I could be the straight man.

[malmshodes]

@GoyaVive

Sounds good.

I've got a full shift today so I'll try and get an OOC up sometime today or tomorrow so we can start by Monday.
