[P2TM Chat] The Restaurant at the End of the Multiverse III

[Rostavykhan]

hello

ALOHA, KIMOSABE

[Rostavykhan]

Maybe it's just me listening to Initial D music a lot recently, but a retro Sci-fi RP with 80's and 90's aesthetic about illegal racing a la Red Line sounds kinda dope.

I don't even like racing that much, but...I dunno...

On another note, I'm still working on PT and FT nation factbook thingymabobbers.

[Zanera]

The only thing that makes me uneasy about the get-up is that animal skulls, but then again it's Halloween and it sounds like it'd fit the whole thing.

If I ever dressed up again I'd probably just get a Grim Reaper costume and wear a couple of black veils over my face. Just enough where I can see and my face would be unseen. Carry around an hourglass and a fake scythe...
I'm pretty unimaginative.

Considering that I still look 15, tempted to dress in a sailor fuku for Halloween, but that sounds too cringey.

Whatever you wanna do mang...

While this may not appropriate place to talk about RP ideas, I just want to talk about it (while juggling my life in the RL work) with some people I know here frequently. I've been having some bizarre ideas on RPs lately.

Let's just say I felt like I want to make a Three Kingdoms-style fantasy AU settings. Complete with guns and magic. Well, guns and magic are fun~. Anyway...getting on the three faction empires in my RP idea, they're all technically Chinese states which sets on the continental mainland which is roughly twice bigger than East Asia. Cosmetic-wise, the three empires are based on my imaginations I had in mind recently and favourite parts of histories of mine to which I've read. These three empires in question fought each other for dominance of the continent.

One is a Sinofied Muslim Turco-Mongolian khaganate in the north which built their empire through unique conquests. Basically, Chinese Mughal Ottomans.

Second is the Isolationist Ming Dynasty in the centre. Lots of Hanfu and all the 'traditional' Chinese stuff, lots of strict Confucianists. Stereo-typically Imperial Chinese.

Third is a South-East Asian Buddhist state in the south, covering the Canton and parts of Southern China. You could say they're like Nanban empire complete with tropical SEA Buddhism. Prolly Thai-focused.

In case you're asking, the reasons I feel like Chinese themed settings. Well, you can hardly see much RPs here with Chinese settings.

So any thoughts?

no

I can't really say much on the setting, because it's sort of mixed for me...but I do like the idea of more oriental settings. I especially enjoy China as a setting, moreso than Japan or Southeast Asia.

Korea and India are interesting as well, but China is where it's at.

[The North Fort]

Can mafia be run here or is that somewhere else?

[Rostavykhan]

Can mafia be run here or is that somewhere else?

It's allowed. Just about anything is.

On another note, was thinking it would be neat to make a temporary Halloween discord right before the 31st, and make it an open thing for anyone on NS to hop into. Have a voice/story time channel for scary stories using a youtube bot, and one for Halloween music. Maybe even a channel for costumes and images.

I think it would be a neat idea anyways. Thoughts? I might just do something similar on one of my other servers and make it a small thing, but an open server for NS I think would be neat.

It is somewhat clever to let zombies convert C+C. It means one dedicated region member, even in closed regions, could infect a clean region when everyone else is offline. Historically they love trying to depress survival numbers to make being clean/death free without selfishly closing the borders very hard to do.

You what'll be really clever, though? A different gimmick altogether. We've been doing this for years now, and I've pretty much stopped caring for the past few games. ._.

[Kassaran]

Ghost busting would be cool. They start having ex-nations begin coming back and haunting old thread's and threads that died after hitting five hundred can be opened again to be posted on. A grave diggers fantask come to life! Let the seven hundred page limit begin. The only problem is that threads that died can only be resurrected once, to say their goodbyes and settle unfinished business. At the end of the night, ghost busters (staff ) come in and finish everything off in time for the day to end.

The thing is, I don't see the difference.

We could use a new one.

Yus, but what are the odds of that?

Good point.

If in doubt, always count on those in authority (especially if they are techies) to be as lazy as possible. You shall never be disappointed!

[The Mystery Bard]

Feeling slightly conflicted and unsure right now... :-/

It's become a minor nuisance to me any more.

"Let's log in and... oh, someone sent me a telegram. Wonder who it could - wait, no, just a regional leader letting me know about this 4 year old thing that started as an April Fool's prank but became an annual occurrence for some reason."

:| nobody loves me

Sure, but that's not helping ease my decision, chum.

After nearly a decade of Text-based Roleplaying on various sites, I'm resigning from it permanently here and now on Nation States.

I am out of ideas, inspiration, and honestly, faith in the Roleplaying community.

I honestly can't force it anymore so, putting it bluntly; "I'm done."

TBH, I feel sad.

I've always loved writing and roleplaying and it has always proved to be a warm pastime and also an effective escape from reality for me.

But, I've just lost my passion for writing and my love of Roleplaying.

I plan to stay on here on NS myself, but from henceforth the majority of my presence will be in the other forums, the discussion and debating ones and whatnot.

Ah, another failed RP then? Well, NS has plenty of other options for interaction; A+F always has some good debates going on.

You can always opt for roleplaying with one or two people in a closed RP. It's been done before, though mostly in NS&II.

The pace will likely be slower, but you might prefer it.
