Traveller's Café: Discussion, brainstorming & advice

[Sentinel XV]

So, I had this idea for an RP. You've been living your entire life in ignorance. Gorging on simulated junkfood, spouting out the same meaningless phrases over and over again, and going from attraction to attraction like mindless sheep. Scenery appears out of thin air before you, but you're too caught up in the illusion that you don't know, and you don't care. But then it all changes. They approach you, show you the truth. It's all a program, it's all a fantasy. The spell is broken. But how do you escape?

Introducing... THE ESCAPE FROM ROLLER COASTER TYCOON.

Escape from this Roller Coaster Tycoon?

Never really did enjoy Dunkey's videos, but I guess he knows his target audience.

[Kershya]

Yeah, Constania is running one right now. It's called Elementals: The Black Beast. Speaking of, I'll be posting there shortly.

Thanks, it looks interesting. I'd rather wait for another rather than join midway and for some reason it doesn't look like something I want to join. I'll just wait...

If you want to join a starting RP, there's mine. It's called Mystic Empyrean.

RP Name: Children of the End
RP Creator: The National Dominion of Hungary
Type (Character, Nation, Faction): Character
Genre/s: Post Apocalyptic, Modern Tech, Monsters/Epidemic,
Detailed Description: A group of survivors must stay and alive in the post apocalyptic world of Pandynosa. The fantasy world of Pandynosa is much like our own in terms of technology. In this world, government, order and society itself has fallen to a lethal epidemic which turns its victims into mutated marauding beasts. Players must work together to fight off these creatures, bandits and the environment itself as food, water and shelter is now scarce.

The RP will be rich in character development if you like that.

RP Name: 6.25 The war of change
RP Creator: Greater corea
Type (Character, Nation, Faction): Character (bit of nation)
Genre/s: History/ alt hist. Action, (adventure?).
Detailed Description: A character RP based on the Korean War. Only the events prior to the Incheon landings happen (although they may happen differently, it does have to have a similar effect). From there it's pretty much up to you to fight, kill, and escape daring and dangerous scenarios. Ultimately the result remains unknown, depending on the advances made there will be a different ending to the story. Battles are set and depending on division you may or may not be involved in a particular battle, the results are dictated by me depending on troop count, equipment, and terrain.

Also reposting. Not that it was posted too far back...

Dammit. Now I'm going to have to push back my Alt-history Korean War RP until yours is done...

Also, why did you feel the need to repost when it was literally less than 5 posts back?

Not enough attention. I figured it was gonna be pushed further but maybe not. Would you care to join me?

[Seljuq Kyiv]

Regrettably a repost.

Hmm, I'll need to give it a bit of thought. I'm reading the IC thread now, but what is the current state of the world? Wars, alliances, who's doing what, etc. I'd just like to know before it's too late to realize I've jumped into a FUBAR in the making or something.

I also understand some people have left, and the front page is no longer accurate. Who's playing what nation?

Maybe this could clear up a few confusions.

1870 is one hell of a year to live in. The dozens of German kingdoms have combined and either aligned themselves to Prussia, Austria, or South Germany. Austria has Belgium as its protectorate and the Netherlands is under a Anglo-Austrian condominium. All Dutch colonies have been annexed by Austria.

The German forces combined in a military alliance and pushed through France, mirroring the Franco-Prussian War of '70-'71. An Egypt autonomous from Ottoman rule has joined this alliance under the Austrian banner and has taken most of its colonies. With Napoleon III taken prisoner, the Third French Republic was announced, but some time later a number of cities rose up to form the French Commune, and the nascent Republic takes refuge in Versailles, which has been abolished and exiled by Egypt.

Paris has been raided by Egyptians and the Austrians, then marched through by Prussia and South Germany. However, it remains strong in the face of the occupation(s) and looks to establishing a united France, though is threatened by Britain who has guaranteed the position of the Third Republic as the sole legitimate government of France.

An independent Albania has risen up and has been bequeathed land belonging to Albanians, achieving some sort of success. The Ottomans have established a nominally independent Armenia as a buffer state between it and Russia. The Ottomans have also formed an independent Sultanate of Egypt with the additions of the Levant. Together, Egypt and Albania plan to be united in nuptial ties.

Russia has invaded Mongolia, and have orchestrated a successful rebellion in Xinjiang, as well as an uprising in Armenia. Japan has Manchuria under its grasp.

Argentina has launched several false flag bombardments on certain countries in order to drive out the West from South America. There is talk of establishing the Latin American Economic Pact. Mexico, Italy, Colombia, the Ottomans, and Chile are united under the MICOC (or as I call it, the Coalition of Milan). Mexico is invading Guatemala. Russia has blockaded Argentina and is negotiating a surrender.

Also, Spain has Korea. Italy is mobilising to capture the Papal States and unify Italy once and for all.

The Great Powers (and Sweden) have assembled in Cairo to discuss the state of affairs and a possible partition of Africa.

EDIT: In other words, from a Co-OP who's been here longer than I have: viewtopic.php?p=17912501#p17912501

The 1870 Real World RP is in need of (on a scale of priority) an active Prussia, Italy, China, and much more.

I've always thought you to be rather mindful. A stellar example of mindful, really.
Still a sheep though.

I'll take that as a compliment. (being mindful that is, not the sheep part, that's just a given)

And so are pigs, octopi, and humans. They're rather magical like that.
