Rate AN's rp quality

[Timlandian Federation]

Rate AN's rp quality, you can rate on: details, length, organization, etc

Look at posts and stuff like that. I didn't know where to put it, so I figured I'd put it here, on F7, the only thread I actually know.

"I'd say it's alright. Not too bad, not too good. Formatting is meh, but otherwise, it's solid. I'd say... 7 of 10."

[Doslonsu]

I don't see them much unfortunately, so I must give a 6/10...

> They're really quite formal when they write their dispatches / factbooks for their nation, which I believe are tied heavily to their roleplay, considering the databank linked in their signature.
> Considering that they've only been on NS for a bit under two months, they also strike me as being rather prolific, which ought to count towards a solid quality of RP when coupled with their usual style ;)
> A favourite of mine is how they've used bbcode to make certain parts of those dispatches / factbooks more thematic. It's something that mere text on the RMB or over the forums can only accomplish to a limited degree- though said limits are more pronounced in the RMB-side of things -which might help a tired reader's eyes be guided to the key points in those compositions.

_{^{I tried not to spew fluff-}}
8.9/10
Lovely work :)
I feel like they've been doing a wonderful job on conveying their nation through their writings thus far~
I look forward to what they come up with in the future.

> They seem to use factbooks and dispatches in a bit of a more limited sense, mainly being for conveying information or stories rather than the bbcode functionality they provide.
> From what I read though, they're definitely not posting anything incomplete on their nation, with how all of the stories/information provided through their factbooks and dispatches contribute thoroughly to the narrative they might be aiming for.

7.65 / 10

I feel like it'd be a bit better if there was some more story-based (... as I believe RP is supposed to be, anyways) factbooks/dispatches rather than informative ones :P

The mainly news-like style of their RP is still rather unique to me; maybe I'm just underappreciating it-

[Isla Byron]

/unreserved because i finished

i'm not sure where to start.

ALSO MY BAD BN I SHOULD MAKE A COMPILATION OF EVERYTHING COOL NEXT TIME

-to start, their factbooks are insane. i don't even know where to start, it sets the tone perfectly with how mechanical it is. the shuttering of each section with the conveyor belt of code adds so much raw AURA.
-RMB forum stuff makes me tweak. i can't really elaborate why yet, it gives me the ick. i would like to apologize for this because it would probably bring down the overall score purely over personal preference.
-the writing is really good, it is hard for me to elaborate on it. i've opened up maybe eight tabs worth of reading and maybe given myself more than i can chew, but i can clearly see the consistent quality of all of these works. i cannot emphasize it enough. putting 3,000 words of... words on the rmb is insane though, both in the sense that it's impressive and deranged. i would just make a google doc at that point or something. there's also some cliche language, it's rare, don't worry. i think i saw one 'took her breath away' and lost it forever after that. i should also add that a lot of the samples i picked are over a year old and are probably far from current or relevant. woops.

i had moderate difficult in searching for more current posts. this is probably because it's unnecessary to do so. i just wanted to say it.

i have read the halloween of 2068 post, i think it was very well made! i liked-ed it on the actual page. it's brilliant, i don't have much to say. i just thought the last line, the one about a hot knife through cold cheese was funny. how about a hot knife through a soft leech?

on a five star scale... girl, you're a.. black hole. that's supposed to be five stars together.

[Union of Albandrite Socialist Republics]

I don't see enough to make a judgement.

0/10

[Ineva]

8/10. Even the nation-state's first posts are really quite impressive in both length and quality--i.e., not just filler words or circular phrasing you'd put in an essay to meet the required word count, but actual thought-provoking work.

Isla Byron, you still have your reserved tag for Path...

[The Grand Athena And Nike]

7/10

Some are short but it still gives alot of info

[The Indios Bravos]

Yeah uh...
No rps...TBD/10, but I will add they seem pretty summie

[Sardinia-Sicily]

A lot of WIP's but from what I have seen it is quite good

8.7/10

[The Grand Athena And Nike]

9.2/10
Short overviews but the lore is amazing so it doesn't matter

[Isla Byron]

Isla Byron, you still have your reserved tag for Path...

i know i know i just came back from the gym gimmie a second /skipme

i fixed it :)

[Tiami]

I have not seen a lot in terms of RP to make a proper judgment. For now, 0/10. I would assume this will increase as time progresses.

For the BN, here is a list of current RPs I am in:
Flicker
Descent Into Hell
Lost Prince

And a wiki.

[Pathonia]

I don't think I would've known that you were this involved in roleplay without the links-
I took some time to read some of them, and whew-
_{^{My difficulty with reading online text in general might've led to a bit of skiiming- sorry ;-;}}
You certainly write a lot! :o
In the various RPs your involved in, you're very in-depth with the way you write out the story.
You're not caught up in any of the minor details, and manage to keep the narrative going throughout the pieces you composed~
It's clear to me that you definitely devoted substantial time to making sure that your RPs are polished and neat overall, which [I mean, I'm already leaning towards a 10/10 at this point, but whatever-] definitely helps bump your score up xP
In my experience, it tends to be that only the most devoted NS users make a wiki for their nation.
Clearly, you weren't an exception-
The linked wiki is loaded with every conceivable little piece of information and factoid that somebody would conceivably want to know about o.0
It's just mind-blowing to me, the scale of your RP, reaching from the stories written in your RPs, all the way to that wiki that- unless I'm mistaken, anyways -you probably managed to write yourself-

To me, your RP quality is undoubtedly a 10/10
Nice work, Tiami :3

[Rosettan Overwatch]

Oh...
My...
God.

PROS:
- Beautifully written, nice formatting
- Extensive, covers nearly everything one can imagine about a nation
- 乇乂丅尺卂 丅卄工匚匚

CONS:
- Extremely large

10/10. No words. Although sizeable, you manage to break it down into such a glorious fashion.

BN, you can do anything in the Information Databank, or even my Constitution if you want.

[Click Ests Vimgalevytopia]

Size is pretty good, and you do a good job keeping readers engaged. I’ve read a lot of roleplayers who just get possessed by the keyboard and never write anything of substance. You do not fall into that category. 10/10.

[Eusan Federation]

6/10- the work in II is rather barebones, but outside of there there’s a thing or two to behold. Absolutely could be worse, and my rating would be higher if there was more to judge.

[Isla Byron]

im biased because of all the ""people"" here on ns i've ever known eusa is the only one that's asked me to rp, and no one else has ever done so again, which is a fact i hate. telegram me now rpers. after she contacted me, we wrote just shy of 20,000 words worth of google doc and has been nothing but courteous, patient, and also pretty smart. there's been more than a couple of times where she picked up after some of my mental slack and made me realize that i was over- or underthinking it.

i will not do her dirty with a number rating that fails to paint my emotion, so to put it tersely, i think her roleplaying is pretty good.

my shit here.

just do the first spoiler, it has all the important thread links, the rest are just seasoning for the isla byron canon.

[Xerxias]

9/10. Well-written, fun to read, and funny. I love the diction choices!

Was this the base?" he thought, checking the license plate of the parked vehicle. He'd step out of his sedan, swinging the door shut rather loudly like he always did, and scanned the area for any signs of entry or contact. He'd heard about the Akagi group before, mostly in passing, but this was the first time he got to see them live. He always wanted to see just how these criminal masterminds got away with so much robbery, and, better yet, just how they were able to steal military-grade equipment and vehicles.

"Maybe, just maybe, if the Borderlands had that kind of equipment..."

The base was, oddly enough, not as heavily guarded as he thought it was. He’d assumed maybe they would be suspicious of a random vehicle tailing them, but it seems they paid no mind. It looked like an abandoned warehouse, perhaps a manufacturing plant of some sort, but the only barricade was a simple lock and chain closing the gate. Would they shoot him for breaking into their base? Maybe, but he didn’t see a door or anything. He was too head-over-heels in regards to the situation to consider his own safety anyways. He’d jam his shoe in between the wires of the fence, resulting in an uncomfortable but tight fit. Jesper could only fit the tips of his shoes into the fence wiring, so he made sure not to lose his grip in case the discomfort got to him. Although his toes crumpled in pain, he managed to scale the fence. Would a lockpick have been easier? Most definitely, but he didn’t feel like swinging the gate open in case of potential intruders.

[Sardinia-Sicily]

I would say 8/10. From what I read seems to be pretty solid at the rp, especially in dialogue. Looking forward to seeing more work from the AN.

[Quasi-Stellar Star Civilizations]

3/10

Not the best I've seen. Only a couple sentences per post, not much detail. But certainly better than some I've seen.

[Independent Republic of Boldonia]

4/10 a few unformatted sentences per post. It's not bad, I've seen worse, but at the same time I've seen better.

[British Arzelentaxmacone]

I’ve never really RPed with Boldonia all that much, however as a fellow frequenter of the II board I have had the pleasure of seeing their high quality and well thought out posting, which never falls short of excellence. Settings are described in good detail, and characterisation is alright, but what really stands out is their knowledge of RP-common topics. They are learned when it comes to military-based content and also possess a good knowledge of the political side of things. The only criticism I have is that characterisation could be better, but other than that, great!

A solid 9/10!

(BN, please no low effort response!)

[Pathonia]

(I try to put in effort here- y'all are amazing writers on the forums!)

>10k forums posts.
>80% of them on the Int'l Incidents.
Even without an in-depth look at your RP works, I can see that you're a rather prolific RPer! :O

From your more recent posts, I can see that you're quite adept at writing immersive dialogue posts in the various forum RPs you're involved in-
^{You're involved in a lot of RPs, now that I'm scrolling through more of your posts- Your energy for RPing is definitely outstanding- o_o}
Within all that dialogue within your RPs- which might just be my favourite aspect of your RPing -you managed to wrap up some amount of description within it.
I've usually struggled to format my descriptive text with the same paragraph as dialogue, it's quite refreshing to see how seamless your posts work into the various narratives~
While my review is probably still a bit skewed to your more recent forum RP posts, I can definitely see that you lean into an RP post-length of around a paragraph, making it quite easy to grasp for any unacquainted reader.
I'm not yet sure if your factbooks play all that much of a role in your RPs, but I did notice that they're primarily made up of paragraph-ish lengths of text, as sort of informative segments roughly comparable in size to the length of your RP posts.
Your [Outdated] B.A. overview factbook is definitely impressive in length though, and I'd like to laud the effort you must've put into that factbook- and perhaps other incredible ones I'd missed -for the details you managed to pack in it :p

Whew- I hope this isn't struck as being 'fluff,' I try to be thorough-
Yeah, you've always struck me as being a rather major forumside RPer, alongside QSSC~
At least, one that's major and stops by F7 :p

I believe, with your consistent short/sweet RP posts, your seamless description and dialogue, and the occasional nifty factbook, that you're quite deserving of a 10/10 :3

_{^{Most every RPer on the forums has blown me away- I feel like I'm handing out 10/10s like hot cakes >.< Though, they're probably deserved!}}
-

Of course, BN, a low-effort response in this thread would be at least mildly quite disliked by moi ;-;
