Should I tell a lie, the truth, or the truth truth?


I prefer truth to bullshit.

Which is why I have no idea why I keep going to NSG.

Alleniana wrote:I like this a lot. To be frank, I imagine a lot of people could have claimed to have known this, essentially, beforehand, but it's very good at putting it into words and elaborating where others might only have a more vague idea. Also, enjoy the inclusion of nation RPs, which usually doesn't happen anywhere except where they congregate. Only places where I disagree/criticise;
1. A reboot will only be less successful if it was influenced by the first one. If you reboot an RP that had a failed takeoff there's no reason it might not have better luck and take off into later stages. Or, if you reboot it in such a way that very fundamentally alters it, as in MiM 1 vs 2, or the reboot is simply a continuation for, perhaps, such purposes as changing OP.
2. Emphasis on players who leave is a tad much; a not-insignificant minority had structures that allow this to be much less significant, especially modular (i.e. portals connecting universes that are liable to shut off) or mechanic-based ones.
3. Some alternative models/ideas don't really fit in, to a degree (e.g. the overwhelmed OP, colliding visions for the direction of the RP, interest being leached to other RPs), though I can't blame you for leaving those out.
4. "even though being out of schedule lowered the hype a bit" actually, it was quite on schedule :P I purposefully stretched the schedule to prevent myself from being overwhelmed by the "early craze". Addendum to that; perhaps you could do a bit more on the role hype plays, as well as on interest/planning threads, which is a somewhat more grey area.

Eh, I kind of disagree with the "interest burn" theory, but the rest seems fairly accurate, I suppose.

Mmm, I thought it was quite accurate, at least for most of the RPs I've been in. Character RPs do tend to be (at least popularly perceived as) more long lived, though, so perhaps it works differently on that side of the gap.

... Marrying your cousin is illegal in West Virginia.

It's not in Virginia though. Leading me to believe we're being scapegoated to cover up other people's transgressions.

It's not too hard to say that regions where cousin-marrying is a problem will legislate against it, and nobody else. :P
