Kylaris RPs have the issue of not really attracting too many people who aren't in Kylaris, affiliated with Kylaris members, or haven't RPd a Kylaris RP before.

???

Kylaris

To be fair, that is most rps now adays

I was right when I said we were entering the Dark Ages of P2TM.

I think that has been the case for all of 2016

[G-Tech Corporation]

Personally, I'm just hanging out waiting for that Reatra RP.

[Elepis]

is that a bad thing?

When we don't even get through one page of IC, and OOC activity is fueled by shitposting/Piedmont-style godawful players, Id say it is.

They are good IC posts though

Doesn't matter. No plot actually develops. They may look and read pretty, but there's no story crafting or development.

Ugh, too true.

is it better to have a plot with bad posts or no plot with good posts. I suggest we bring in corporal punishment to make Kylaries post

Dont worry, I'm still a shill for the Kyloominarty.

Very easy to join, I like. 442299

Hello and good morning.

It isn't morning here you time-appropriator.

It is but if you're going to reserve you may as well fill out the application. I'm still working some stuff out with Narintia via TG, he's banned for another 3 days but if it gets enough interest I may just go ahead and make a thread. I know Sanabel was talking about reserving Bohemia.

PoD is too recent for what I wanted to do with Bohemia. Maybe I will do Novgorod, idk.

That'd be great because we will need someone experienced to play Novgorod as they're a middling power stuck between hostile Sverge and Muscovy. I think I'm going to wait another day or so to start an actual thread and wait until Narintia is back.

Personally, planning my next moves in P2TM is fun even when I don't get to implement them. It isn't ideal for a RP with wither out after 3 or maybe even 4 pages, but it's still worth it overall.

The P2TM Renaissance for me would be when we come up with a better method of having RP war that is monitored well and doesn't kill the RP when a small disagreement over something military is sparked.

Pimps Inc came up with an idea about that about a month ago. You actually organize mp matches on a game such as empire total war, you agree on what units each side has and you fight the battle. Then you talk about it in the IC.

Too labor and time intensive for someone like me, with school, a job, etc. And that's coming from someone who manages to get on a lot.

I think the future of RPs, as the number of quality players dwindles, is smaller, private ones. Such as what Austria and Bavaria was attempting with his Middle Ages Balkan RP. Where we can get 10 or so dedicated players, and move slowly, easily settling disputes without noobish foibles that appear in large open RPs.

Wouldn't such RP's be harder to sustain? Large ones have people RPing till the bitter end (admittedly lower quality ones generally)

That's the issue.

Hmm, what if we did RPs that cover a smaller area? The biggest inhibitor to interaction tends to be geographic separation, and lack of a real need to interact.

I have had an idea for awhile to do a "nation" RP in something like post-apocalyptic Britain, where you have little "nations" on a very small scale interacting.

Yeah, I think smaller-scale RPs are a good idea. It's a pity the Balkans died, but sometime in the far future I may do a Hundred Years War or a Wars of the Roses RP.

I once contemplated a future Britain split up like that (incidentally when George Galloway announced he was running for Mayor of London), with the nationalists arming themselves and Corbyn with a Red Army.

Another possibility is a country at mad civil war, with countless number of factions, all of them splitting, uniting, allying, etc. Sort of like Spanish/Syrian Civil Wars, just without international interference.

Still, I think those won't be able to replace AH RP's of a global scale. They would be a nice side dish.
