Nat: Night's always in some bizarre state somewhere between "intoxicated enough to kill a hair metal lead singer" and "annoying Mormon missionary sober".

Swith: It's because you're so awesome. God himself refreshes the screen before he types just to see if Nightkill has written anything while he was off somewhere else.

The app is likely to be pretty simple, because I don't want players to go "Fuck this shit, it's too much work!"

Because while I have a reputation ( :rofl: ) and people are likely to put in more effort to join a Nightkill rp, because that's something to be somehow proud of, some rps tend to be "Each post is way too much fucking work, fuck this shit" and then interest dies rapidly.

So I'll try to find the ideal balance. OP will be massive though and I admit that you guys will have to learn a bit about Eastern culture, but I'll helpfully label things like "Social attitudes" which will help with that.

...

Okay. I no longer want to join. It's too much work that I'd rather put into my own stuff. Sorry.

@Indi: I know. :)

I mean, I dislike advancing towards the inevitable middle age and losing my baby privileges, but hey, that's how things roll in this world.

Middle age is... how far away now? :P


Decades, which is why I'm not worried. It is one year closer, though. But meh. :P.

So here's a description that I think works.

Oh, I completely understand. It'll be a big project and that's why I'm considering I might just work on it for my own self, though when it starts it'll likely just be around the same posting level and quality as EH.

It says something about Hinduism that shapeshifting monkey warriors are nothing special.

No, I mean the "researching Eastern culture" thing. That's just too much of a commitment for something that's not mine.

Oh, I just mean that as in read one or two Wiki links I'll provide. I'll probably even end up paraphrasing them for Western audiences because you're all lazy, lazy bastards. The "research" will likely end up being looking up authentic Indian names for your character.

I'm not lazy. It's just that if I'm going to spend a few hours doing something, I'd rather it be working on one of my own projects.

After seeing that movie, I thought "Well, guys, we're done here. Good show. You could never live up to the hype. See you at the next round of reboots."

I am now terribly excited for what these bastards are planning.
