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

[Talchyon]

Hey guys. Talchyon here.

I want to encourage you to try out being involved in a comedy RP. I know, most times comedy RPs are not your standard kind of RP and so the writing is not what you may be familiar with.

That said, I have been involved in a bunch of comedy RPs and I can say that most writers are funnier than they think. I have seen a lot of first time comedy writers who tried it, and found that they were actually really good..

So give it a try. And while we're at it, there is a new comedy RP up and running. The Infinites:The Dork Knight is accepting apps. And who knows? You too might have a knack for this kind of writing that you just didn't know you had.

[Constaniana]

Huehuehue.

Rup colourised 2018

Elementals has been in an iceberg for the past 100 years.

Well, thanks to global warming, it should be free soon.

Thanks, Obama!

Elementals was a fantasy RP I ran for three years, with a reboot, a WWII spinoff, cool characters, and Entish pacing.

What's the RP series about?

Magical superhumans in a Napoleonic setting fight anti-magic Nazi cults, demons, and try to find a kidnapped love interest.

Or, in other words, the first season of Legend of Korra. *nods*

Man, I never thought it would be so hard to find information on how big rat colonies can get. Is it 2? Is it 200? I don't know! D:

Signs point to “bigger than 2”

That's not wrong.

I couldn't find a maximum. I found a specific website saying females in a colony range from 2-6, but that's at low population density. From what I gathered individual colonies stay at that 2-6 range, but there can be a lot of them close together.

Yeah, that was one of the sites I found. It didn't impress me. So, I just made up my own numbers. Family (2-8), Colony (20-100), and Plague (200-1000). I pity the players who try fighting 1000 rats at a time.

Rats fall.

Everyone dies.

I once had a player named Lord Drabble who tamed rats and would send squads of them against his foes.

Consider: Warframe RP

Consider Also: Frame AND Operator, or even mostly Operator, focus.

Well the largest rat king documented consisted of 32 rats, so I'm assuming there were probably 4x that number for so many rats to tie the knot.

[Reikoku]

I can't help but imagine this as the rodent version of 1000Cats.

Just no.

How would people feel about a tank warfare RP?

[Pax Nerdvana]

I'm in!

I'm in!

Iḿ thinking of doing it similar to Ace Combat: Broken Line

A mercenary band, maybe in the same universe as Ace Combat

Maybe not

That would be cool.

[Ameriganastan]

Damn it. I had this cool idea for an RP (A dimension fractured into several different realms that evolved into things like a jungle world and such)...only turns out I was beaten to that exact idea by Magic The Gathering. Stupid frigging card game...

I hate it when that happens.

Why let that stop you?

Eroris is practically Elder Scrolls but it keeps going and growing.

Heck, there is this RP setting called Equalia that is perhaps literrally MLP:FiM but with Elves, Humans, and Wizards rather then Peguses, Ponies, and Unicorns.

These types of settings permit and RP to attract more then the fan base it's based on as players tend to get nervous stepping into something they are unfamiliar with and typically if an RP is set in a world from a game or book players may bicker over what is and isn't viable in the setting. Thus a reflection/stand in version of the setting that doesn't need to address alternate history scenarios does rather well.

Magic the Gathering recently killed off my favorite, and my brother's favorite characters and is starting a new batch of planswalkers. It's in that situation right now where a lot of the characters are now dead and it feels a bit like a reset as the game returns to the first plane (the plane the first series of cards was set in). So if your idea is like MTG I say go for it regardless due to the situation MTG is in and the success of other reflection/stand in RPs.

I don't know. I have a complex about feeling like I might be copying stuff. I remember when I tried submitting something to the SCP Foundation once. Turns out I'd somehow copied Swamp Thing wholesale despite never hearing of him til then.
