I get that you guys might not have the time to join. But that doesn't mean I wouldn't still appreciate your advice. :(

What are your big concerns? Is there any areas you specifically need help in?

Nothing specific. I really just want to make this a good, decent-sized RP. And you guys seem pretty good at that sort of thing. (Especially Doughboy. XD BA is awesome.) So any tips and tricks you can give me would help...

I'm not sure what advice you want. Do you want me to look at the idea? The canon? The app? I can't give advice without knowing the question.

But here's some general advice.

1). Be excited about you RP. The number one cause of RP deaths in the multiverse is a disinterested OP.

2). Lead by example. If you don't care what kind of posts are made, then write however you like. But, if you want quality posts, then you have to write quality posts. If the OP is writing one liners, then the players will feel like that's ok. But if it is, great.

3). Plan your plots ahead of time, especially in a mystery scenario. I usually story board it, so I know the general beginning, middle, plot twist, and end. If you have a clear plot, then you're more likely to have engaging story lines that make sense, as writing on the fly can lead to you changing the end goal without a good reason.

4) That being said, make your players feel as though their choices matter. Care about your plot, but don't punish them for taking creative solutions unless it's canon/game breaking. And if you're giving them a choice, make sure the choice matters. If I choose something, there should be consequences for my action.

Dunno if that helps, but I tried. Now to go write a BA post.

There's been no activity at all in the RPs I'm in, so if you all want to chit chat in the bar at 9 AM in the morning, that'd be great. Bio's able to make a darn good cup of joe.

And I'm interested Charlia, as long as there's activity to be had.

I'm also interested, Charlia.
