Realistic or Modern The Dead Hills - Out of Character Chat

Main
Here
Hopefully that was a good little intro post, I know it wasn't much, but should Jane survive Jennifer's wrath, there'll be a lot more to come. ;)
 
Oh shit, it’s my turn to post again. Looks like I’ll be getting another out soon.
 
Catharsis Catharsis so Cosmosis Cosmosis cant write right now, so I’m writing his characters (Simon and Jake) for the time being. Just a heads up. You and his character can run to the pharmacy and back. You don’t have to really write much dialogue between them. You can have Jane shout to him in the pharmacy if he does it doesn’t have any medication or supplies, and have him say yes or no.
 
For the purpose of getting the story moving, I gg another post out and had a quite a bit happen in them. I want to get this closed soon.

Also, I may or may not write my new GM approach/policy tonight. If not, I will tomorrow.
 
Okay, so I’m deciding to post that GM post now. So before I start, let me just say that I don’t quite have a step-by-step how to get rich scheme uhhh I mean step-by-step plan on my new idea for running this.

So here’s a bit of honesty. When Cosmosis Cosmosis and I started this reboot, I wasn’t quite sure how this would go. All I know is I wanted this to work. Far too often, RP’s on this website never really last.

—and that there is the most annoying and discouraging part of RPing in general, at least for me.

So far, it’s on better ground than I admittedly thought it was going to be. So far, I’m very impressed at how it’s going, and the writers we have thus far.

With what seems to be a solid little crew so far, and a reason conversation about a really good GM of a different RP I’m in, I decided that I’m going to run this thing a little different. It’s not anything that really will impact it for you in any way that substantially alters how we write or anything.

But instead, I’m going to be as proactive as possible with everything in the RP. I try to be as proactive as possible. Whether it is more than it is now, or not, I’m going to focus a lot on being proactive with y’all, I clouding discussions on how we want to proceed.

Now that brings me to another point, a rather larger one. I want to find a way to implement a sort of choice-branch system. Now no, it’s not going to be a scenario, then “choose x for y result, choose y for x result.” I want to present ideas on how we could go about scenarios differently. I want to kind of create a sort of branching path with the choices of things. I want to have ideas on how things could go, one way or another, for certain choices. Maybe choosing Path Poop will lead to Outcome Shit, or Path Shit will lead to Outcome Fucking Hell m8. I think it would be beneficial because it would show how the story can go, one way or another. It gives more flexibility, and different options with how to continue. Now I’m not quite sure how I can implement it, but I will think about it, and we can work on it all together. I’m open to suggests on this and anything.

The last thing I want to do is to allow us all to come up with story arcs, be it for a character, or for the story overall. I want us to have a flow of ideas on what we could do. Let’s share ideas, and build this to be great.

With that being said, I have a wee confession to make. So you know how the RP states there’s a dark secret hidden in the hills of West Virginia that groups are all fighting for? When I wrote that I had no idea what it is, and to this day I still don’t have it all thought out completely yet. That said, the whole nuclear bomb part will have something to with it. It’s a working concept.

And with this, to make this world pop out and become special, alive and unique, I, and anyone else who wants to, make new characters and/or groups, go ahead. I’ll be making more characters and groups. Some friendly, some not. BUT! This is determined by how our characters act and what they choose to do with new groups. While some will be hostile no matter what, some will be in the middle. Our characters can or can’t become allies with these groups, or even join them, should they play their cards right.

To end this, I’m just trying to make this bigger and better. I want it to thrive, and keep going. So long as we have ideas, and people still willing to write, we’ll keep this going.

I hope the new ideas and policies make some sense to y’all. I hope you like them. I’m open to any constructive criticism or suggestions. Tell me what you think! :)

Alright, lads, this is my bedtime. This is Dylan, signing off for the night. It’s 1:50 for me (which is late for me as well lol).

So, again, this is Dylan, signing off for the night. Night, y’all. Or good morning. One or the other.
Bai!!!

"You can have Jane shout to him in the pharmacy if he does it doesn’t have any medication or supplies, and have him say yes or no"

Confused by this statement. Honestly planning on cheating this time and finding everything okay.

Hm let me clarify it, with the typos as well. What I mean to say is that Jane and Simon can run to the pharmacy. I was saying you could GMod Simon and have her call out to him to see if he found any sedatives, medication needed, tools/supplies, etc.

You can cheat it, I don’t care. Quite frankly I want to get Archie better now. So cheat it, go for it!

It's either that or Milly and Jane get their heads blown off
 
I’ll see if I can get a post out before I leave today. I have to do a couple of things first. I might be able to squeeze one in, but no promises.

Also, since idalie idalie cant really post, being Archie is about to get sedated for being an annoying, noisy shit, you can just wait until we get the surgery over. I don’t know how much of it I’ll write. Truth be told, I want to get this over with. Would everyone be okay with a mini time skip during some parts of the surgery so it’s after and we all can post? Maybe jump ahead to directly after the surgery?
