Bio

My name, as you may have noticed, is Sven. The last part of my username is a historical reference to an important person in Dutch history, William the Silent to be specific, an important leader during the Dutch revolt. If this didn't tell you already, I love history. I eat, breath and sleep history. Anything involving a historically correct setting will most likely draw my interest, whether it is during the first or perhaps the second World War, the colonial age, or even the the ancient times during the Roman Empire.

Now to sum this up to an easy and bite sized piece of information, I will most likely be down for the following scenarios or genres in terms of roleplay:

- Apocalyptic settings, whether that be Zombie or natural disasters. (Both post-apocalyptic and during the apocalypse itself.)
- Roleplays during the first or the second World War are things I enjoy immensly and that is something i'm very knowledgeable on as well.
- Ancient Rome, love it. If you have anything to do with that or possibly with things like that such as the Greek city states, I will most likely be interested.
- Videogames, roleplays based on video games such as the Metro or the Fallout series are things I can also enjoy.

Was playing poker for the last few hours, I have not received a single reply on the messages as of yet. I want atleast eight people, the number I had set to start with initially. (That is including me.)
Private messages have been send in groups of four, with the exception being the people that are currently posting in here and do want to continue. Eight of the original twelve have received the message asking them to express whether they are leaving or staying, if enough people choose to stay then I will be able to continue our roleplay, if not then i'll be forced to archive it.

For now, to save myself some time. I'm witholding the creation of my IC post and waiting on the responses.
Wrote the whole private message, send it and then closed it only to find out that I can not send it to more then five people at once. Lovely.
I will contact all the participants of this roleplay on whether or not they are still going to be active. In my experience the OOC is usually a bit more lively, this one is as good as dead if a select few people do not try to engage conversation, which is something that leads me to believe this is dead. (For example, without looking I think only three people, including me posted something in the OOC in the last two weeks. My posts during that time have also been referencing lack of activity and my assumption that this was dying.)
A favourite quote of mine is ''Lack of weapons is no excuse for defeat.'' True as that may be, if I do not have participants for the roleplay then persuing it would be futile.

Edit: I don't fancy closing it either but what's the point with only four/five people.
@ViolentViolet It is getting quiet, from what I can tell there are a total of four maybe five people, including me still active. I think the other people have abandoned ship.

Would it be worth my time to get another post up and continue my efforts to revive this or should I just close it down all together?
I'm being a bit of a hypocrite here but I myself am busy these few days, if things work out I should be able to post Sunday.
@ViolentViolet Better late then never, I understand school can cause difficulties.
@ViolentViolet Loving it, haven't read it yet but there is a post so i'm happy. Lets get this train back on track.
@Pripovednik Finally someone who posts something, it's annoying how easily people give up on something. I don't see this thread as dead, I may just start a group message to get everyone's attention back here. I don't fancy wasting my time.

But seeing as everyone is ignoring my posts they seem to want out.
