Sup guys! I know we were kind of post chainy this week so if you guys don't get posts in before Monday, I won't hold it against you.


I wanted to ask you guys a question though. This RP gets clogged because there's only six players, so we tend to go in an even rotation. So if one person, say, usually posts on the weekend but everyone else posted before them and they don't post until Saturday, then no one else is going to be able to post that week, nahmsayin? And that's fine, cause everyone's still posting like...weekly, but it also makes the RP move real slowly.


So I wanted to ask you guys how you feel about expanding the maximum amount of players we have on this thing. I was thinking I'd be cool with like...8 bros. I normally do ten but idk about that for this RP because I usually do 10 with the assumption that characters will spread out, whereas in this RP the characters are usually all in one spot. But, the teams will be splitting into smaller groups to handle more things at once soon...sooo...how would you guys feel about that? Would you be cool with adding more players, and if so, should I bump the max up to 8, or 10?
 
I'd be okay with 10, so long as those 4 additions are serious about it (well, serious enough to post consistently).

If we're going to be breaking into smaller teams, it wouldn't be such a terrible idea... but in the whole when everyone is meshed into one group, I don't think a couple more players are going to help the speed. I mean, I'm always up for rping with new people cuz like Kalin has been super cool already :D And I'm always ready to rp with new people, who have new interesting characters and everything... but I don't think you'll be solving the problem adding more people; I think the problem will more be solved when everyone isn't in the same place. That is just my opinion though; I have no factual evidence to back it up or anythin besides the rps I've been in and for all I know I could be completely wrong! Just admitting that now xD
 
Guys... Artemis can 'go down with the ship'... for her sacrifice? Like those moves where someone has to stay behind because reasons, and is ultimately the hero and stuff? So it could be that she has to stay behind to finish bringing the ship down... and then they can find her in the wreckage later? Alive but vegetable state?

They gotta save the abductees that are on the ship though :o They can't crash it, they have to land it in Area 51 :3
 
@Kayzo @theglassangel


Alright Imma dew it. Imma add 2 more players and kind of test the waters. The general idea is, we feel compelled to wait and go in a circle cause the groups so small and it's just like "alright may as well"


But if we had more posts coming in, I think we'd move on like we do in most other RPs, wait for people who are especially pertinent to respond to at the moment and post afterward, even if everyone hasn't necessarily gone yet. And hopefully this way posts might turn out a bit shorter and we won't have to cover a week's worth of shit in our posts. That's the idea at least. It might not work but I wanna experiment since I'll be running another RP with a small group of bros and I just wanna...test the waters.


So if you guys have any recommendations tell me :3 Weeee~


Also I'll post today

@Kayzo @Kalin Scarlet @CloudyBlueDay @theglassangel


Alright guys, so yo. Check it. I've been writing my post for this RP. And you know what I realized.


We're totally just fucking going through the motions of this RP. I have other RPs, and they're interesting because you post, and you're not expecting what the fuck is gonna happen or you're just real hyped and anticipating it what you know is gonna happen but you're not sure what's gonna happen along the way.


But lets be honest.


We know the Yuri Bros are gonna fuck up the aliens and we know Obscurity and Thunderbird are going to join the team. We know the Anti Yuri Bros are gonna break out of prison, WE KNOW THAT SHIT. WHATEVER, THAT'S COOL, BUT HOW FUN IS IT TO REALLY TO RP THAT.


Not very, m8. It's not very fun.


So here's what I'm thinking. I say...FUCK ALL THAT SHIT. We know what's gonna happen. Let's just timeskip to the meat of this RP. Which can be fucking summarized in two sentences.


"ALL THEEZ PRISONERS BROKE OUT AND THE YURI BROS NEED TO TRACK 'EM DOWN AND PUT 'EM BACK IN JAIL."


"ALL THEEZ PRISONERS BROKE OUT AND THEY NEED TO COMMIT CRIMES TO MAKE A LIVING."


I mean like, like totally fuck it, that's what it is, that's what we all came here for. We came here for a team of super villains fighting a team of super heroes and oh yeah, they're all lesbians. Yay. That's what the RP's about so why don't we just skip to that. Why bother setting it up? I say we revamp this whole RP, and timeskip to the meat of what we all came here for and go from there. What say you all? Really, I want to hear your thoughts about this. Cause I know for me personally, this RP just isn't as exciting as it used to be. And even its "used to be" isn't as exciting as other RPs I've made.

My view:


I think it's actually super important we started out at a bit... of an 'we know what's happening, and we're writing it' because it gave us to strengthen pre-established relationships.


For me, I knew I wanted Alice and Gallie to be pals... but thanks to angel I understand they are really freakin' close... maybe they don't paint nails and braid hair and shit, but they're emotionally close. There's an actual bond, even if they know little about one another. It's an odd friendship.


With the heroes, we got to do a quick fight scene and see how everyone writes those, see who takes leads and who doesn't... and of course we've been following you mostly on this because it's like.. 'well Blaze, how is this going to pan out... we win but how do we win'


I think it was important we did that, but I'm all for getting to the meat now. Things are established, cept for the team name.... So yeah, lets have some fun!! (fyi, I was having fun with my posts :P but you're right, not as much as other rps we are in together)
 
Okay, first, real god damn sorry about posting that shit in the wrong tab LOL. I was like, almost done with my post in my workshop and ready to come over here but I just had an epiphany about the whole thing and I was like "FUCK IT" basically guys......................


I think I structured the way this RP works pretty badly. And, I kind had no choice but to do so, because I had no idea where this was even gonna go.


BUT NOW. now I see how this RP is sort of supposed to work now. And now I see how we can fix this and make this more fun for all of us. And it's so simple, it's literally just...skip to the fucking fun part.


Yeah, those of us who have been here since the beginning have a better understanding of relationships now, and that's great. The great thing about that is the new players can establish those relationships just off top of their characters being new to their respective teams.


I just think we can really soup this up into its full potential immediately and go from there. Especially now that literally a third of the team has been replaced by Cloudy and Kalin and on top of that, we're gonna add new bros.


I see so much potential to go ham rn, why even fuck with the boring expositional shit at this point, ya know?

Been there, done that... at least you didn't post it into the wrong roleplay.


So Blaze, are you going to lead us into skipping the fun part?


There's a lot of potential here, but then I never doubted that Blaze :)
 
But seriously, what will we do about the villains? I think we should pair them all up depending on who gets along with who and go from there. It'd be terribly boring to self roleplay, and even with two people they'd still get beaten up by the yuri bros.
 
i honestly don't think we should pair everyone off bc every character reacts differently to every character. i mean, unless the situation calls for it (which i don't think it has so far), the villains should stay together. besides, it gives us a chance to look at and get the feel of what differeny side... let's say, alice has when talking to... marionetta or rebel7, ya know? i mean, characters broke out together, so it would be wise to stick together xD character favouritism/bias is just as bad as self roleplay.

Ya know what. I think I am.


But I gotta think about this for a minute first.


I'll get back to you guys about it but basically here's what I'm thinking.


We're gonna time skip to the bloody juicy part of what we all came here for. "Super heroes huntin' super villains and OH YEAH. They're all lesbians."


That's for certain, we're definitely going to timeskip.


But I also said we'd be adding more players to this. And a timeskip is the best time to add new players to an RP.


We just have to situate when exactly that timeskip will be, what will be happening, and I also want to properly formulate my ideas about how this will mechanically work. So give me a minute, and I'll have another stupid announcement to make.


@Kayzo @CloudyBlueDay @Kalin Scarlet


I gotta say...thank you guys for being super patient with me. Because I'm still pretty new to this site and forum RPing in general. I'm still learning a lot of things about the medium. Before, I had to put a focus on activity, because I noticed RPs die here very often cause of activity problems. But now that that's all squared away, I'm looking at my RPs on a different level, and I'm beginning to really understand how to put together a successful forum RP. "Beginning" being the keyword. I'm sure I have a lot to learn but I'm hyped to learn it. Anyway, I just wanted to say, thank you guys, for all that you've contributed, and for your patience. I'm gonna properly formulate my thoughts, and we'll be back to normal with this thing by Sunday evening this week!


And when I say "by Sunday" I mean I wanna get back to posting normally by the end of the week. I don't mean "ignore this RP until Sunday" because the fact of the matter is....I'm gonna need you guys' help. You're the most important element of the RP, and I'm gonna be referring to you guys when I'm thinking about ways to make this whole thing function better. We're all gonna have a big talk about Yuri Bros this week, yeah? Yeah. Alright cool. I'll talk to you guys about it either later tonight or tomorrow. Either way...stick around, and get prepped for some


SUPER YURI DISCUSSIONS.


bye.
 
also, i mean, isn't it weird if the heroes win the first try against the villains? like damn dude, the yuri bros haven't developed to the point where an entire group of villains that escaped from jail would all get their asses handed to them. i thought that the nice glimpse of how the heroes fight together and how the villains escaped from jail is honestly enough expo for now xD . i say we let the villains win the first couple of rounds until the heroes develop, bound together and kick ass.

I can roll with that.
 
Alrighty gather around everybody.


@Kayzo @CloudyBlueDay @Kalin Scarlet


Alright so here's what I'm thinking. So we're going to timeskip to basically, the very next day. Artemis is in a coma, Thunderbird and Obscurity are kicking it in the power tower for helping with the aliens, Millarca got kicked out in the middle of the night for trying to drink Thunderbird's blood. On top of all that, the power tower phone stopped ringing cause after the whole Silverhold thing, it's pretty much just assumed that the Bros have work to do.


So for them, it's quite simple. We'll load up random miscellaneous threats in the neutral characters tab, and we'll have the team delegate who's going to take care of who and who they'll be teaming up with at their leisure.


As for the anti-bros, we gotta find a way to bring 'em altogether and then we'll go from there with them. Any ideas about that?


My idea for Marionetta's pretty simple. She's "wounded" due to having only one body left and her factory's been seized. So she basically just tagged along with one of the other escaping characters forcefully. Like a lost little robotic puppy.
