If you can find the weeks you'd need to do it, you should go through Elfen High 2's OOCs sometime. There is some crazy shit in there, not all of it stuff we really should have, strictly speaking, been allowed to get away with in what was ostensibly an OOC thread for a roleplay.


The major ones like Elfen I am putting aside for another day, it is just absurdly massive and it is awesome. I find it interesting going through these old RP's though because I've gotten to see the whole rise and fall, reboots to resolution and it has been interesting. Also sad here and there.

The original Elfen High is also in the archives. I always planned on writing a decent recap, but I think that should be Night's job.

Say "hi" to him for me. He never gave me any contact details, as far as I recall. Also, send him this. He'll know what it means. Maybe.

It'd actually be nice to have a chat with the group HINT HINT.

Would anyone be willing to tackle some interviews for me? The structure of them is basic, and done through TG. I initially ask if they would be willing to answer questions and then if they reply yes, I will ask a series of questions on the state of role-playing now compared to when their RP started. The questions can differ but once you've collected a substantial amount of answers just post it in this thread.

I would like interviews from Elfen High, I know Astro said he could contact Nightkill, but also from Personification Life. I have already contacted Cerillium, so just a few more from these massive RP's would be helpful. Any takers?

Offhand, we should also definitely cover Adventuring Days. Good times.

No worries to everyone, I have a feeling all the RP's you know and love will be covered as I am creating an extensive, albeit exhaustive, timeline so we have somewhere to start for everyone to dig through these RP's for story lines, fun characters, and great posts.

Currently I'm on the RP "Elementals" from 2013. Though I can't seem to break past 2012 often times without finding another heavily interested RP. Will update as I progress!

Thanks for stopping by the mess that is a history of P2TM

Update for all: I have been getting amazing stories and lessons from players on what they learned. Camicon's in particular has been an invaluable well of quotables. Thanks to all for leaving a look here and there.

If anyone has a story or specific detail they feel will get overlooked while I am still busy making the timeline, please feel free to TG me or just leave it here in this discussion thread before the official is, well, officially made.

PL's OP: Dabfia, Swith Witherward, Cerillium

I haven't forgotten your questionnaire, Esselman. My work schedule was sinister. I'll work on it this week and send it back to you. Apologies for the delay.

If you're looking for examples of some of the earliest RP from F7, try The Parkus Empire's Dark Knight or Nightkill's Role of Deities. Zarkenis Ultima's Super Teens Stuff had a good run. Unfortunately, too much history was lost to autoprune.

There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears, and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination.

Hello there.

I've been meaning to drop by and post to offer my help, since I've been lurking the thread for a while, but I've been putting it off until now. Anyway, main reason I post is to correct Cer: though I posted the IC thread for Super Teens Stuff, I wasn't really in charge of the roleplay. The OP was, IIRC, Headingtonia (I did a quick check of the thread and they still seem to be active, interestingly enough; they're one of the few non-ex nations there), but due to inactivity the reins passed to Unilisia after a while.

If I recall, there was a sequel to it, too, though I wasn't very involved in that.

Hope that helps your historian task :P I'll be happy to help with anything else you might need from me.

Oh, and before I forget, I see Cer brought up The Role of Deities as well. It's a similar case as with STS: The OP was a nation called Albertasby (I believe she returned with a different nation; I can hunt down that info if you'd like, though no promises).

Border of Reality was a good one, too.

Think Zark ran that. Or maybe not.

That one was run by Rupudska. If I recall it had three episodes and a short-lived reboot. I think everything's still around; the only thing that the autoprune swallowed was the original OOC, I think.

Slight correction: GAMA wasn't done only by me. Quavv was the original OP, but I took it over when he found life starting to bog him down.
