Apologies to all writing partners both current & prospective. Been sick for two weeks straight (and have to go to work regardless). No energy. Can't think straight. Taking a hiatus. Sorry again.

Where's the personality? The flavor? the drama? The struggle? The humanity? The texture of the time and the place in which this conversation is happening? In a word: where's the story?

here we go again

@TheMadAsshatter Yep. Sorry. It became clear through yet another player's posting activity (signing up for other RPs less than 12 hours ago, but being "unable" to keep up with this one) that we were going to lose another person very soon, if we hadn't already.

Plus Fyre is having connection issues or some-such, so even though he wants to be here, he is unable for IRL reasons. I'm sure he'll tell me what happened whenever he gets back online.

That leaves four people, two of whom are all alone IC without any travel buddies. If you were writing a post then you've been screwed the most out of everyone who's still here, for which I apologize, but that's the way it is. If I can make it up to you somehow, shoot me a PM.

Edit: You too, @Xandrya.
All right, mates. I tried to keep it alive despite the odds, but now that we've lost even more people to inactivity and apathy, I suppose it's time to acknowledge this RP's death. We've received no new apps in months, and of the apps we did receive, we had a pathetic 36% player retention rate; these numbers are unsustainable, so I'm calling it quits and leaving CnSn to the wolves. We kept it on life support for a while but it's time to finally put the thing to rest.

I take most of the blame for the RP's failure. My OP in the OOC could have been longer. I could have been warier of incoming players, performing background checks on their posting histories to see whether they had any histories of abandoning RPs. I could have made the IC posts immediately engaging and exciting instead of trying to ease us into slow, methodical character development. I could have done a better job of advertising the game.

@Xandrya@Fyre Unholy@SilverFallen@TheMadAsshatter The inactive/deserter players obviously ought to be ashamed, because I know I'm not the only one they've fucked and will continue to fuck on this site, but you four are blameless; you stuck it out to the end, even when morale was low, even when others were leaving in droves. For that you've earned my respect. If I GM again in the future, I will accept any of you into the RP with open arms.

See you, space cowboys, and thank you for the fun times, brief as they were.


p much my sentiment exactly

everyone post-Jonathan is awesome so far, but Joseph is the awesomest.
Good guy with a good heart; but he's written shallowly.

I like him well enough, but all the protags from Battle Tendency and onward are more charismatic, more fun, and just...cooler.
F: Explain why I don't want to write a really long and detailed post and getting dragged into a multi-page argument that will no doubt involve a grand amount of passive aggressive remarks, snark and barely veiled insults because there is nothing in it for me?


"I'll write a long, detailed post explaining to them that I don't care enough about their opinions to bother writing the long, detailed post which they want me to write. That'll learn 'em.

"Also I'll morally proselytize in the process."

huh
@Raddum Well, of course. Jonathan is the biggest pussy in the entire bloodline, and he was still manlier at age 12 than any 3dpd will ever be.
@Raddum holy shit guys this babby has never even posed erotically with other muscly anime men in an RP before, what kind of pleb garbage even is this rn
@DruSM157 Araki names most of the characters in JJBA after Classic Rock groups/musicians/albums/songs.

So anyone who doesn't follow in this trend is a goddamn disgrace to the franchise tbh. This stupid fucker, for example.
@Raddum ... Thin Lizzy and Twisted Sister, then?
