Perhaps I shall rejoin. Have to read up on what happened since I last posted. Hope no one turned me into a Gungan. Laughing

Great guys, I've also heard from Mara and she's expressed interest in rejoining once her finals are over as well. So that just leaves IR2.

@darthrevan1 this means things are looking very good for a revival of the RPG. So you can start cooking up a character for the expedition. (we'll figure out how to fit you in once you've gotten your character set up). I would recommend looking through the story thus far to get an idea of what is going on (linked in my previous post). This thread provides a timeline and also a background of each character in the RPG: http://www.eucantina.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1191

The common characters in use are Jedi, non-force user so a character along those lines will have the greatest ability to interact with the rest of the characters in a non-combat situation. We have a two Sith (only 1 currently being played) so you are free to do that or create a non-force using bad guy if you so desire though.

the rules are that any new characters have to be approved by a majority vote of the current players (to avoid things like adding too many bad guys or a character that has no shot in fitting into the story). So when you have a character set up post it in the following thread and we will discuss it there: http://www.eucantina.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=318

What would everyone think of doing a Darth Elmo RPG?

It would work really well as a short wild-west type RPG.

If people think it's a good idea, I'll start it and hopefully there won't be much chat activity overnight as I'm on my phone and I want to copy and paste this evening's Darth Elmo chat onto Word for later but I can't (because I'm on my phone).

So let me know what you think and I'll try to come up with some ideas to flesh it out. If no one wants to, I'll just write it myself and put it in The Library.

I fear the actual Darth Elmo's fury if we were to make him into a game.

The world is a mess and I just need to rule it.

Just testing the waters, but would anyone be interested in a more informal Role Playing thread? One where any can join or drop when they want, and there's less pressure on continuity?

The idea would be we pick a setting, and people can pop in and out of the setting as they please. For instance the bar in Mos Eisley. You walk in, get a drink, cut someone's arm off, business as usual.

Now the settings could change, but each setting should allow for a crowd to be present. If there's space travel, it should be on a public transport with lots of people on board. If we go somewhere, it should be a public event or public place. Could be Jabba's Palace or a concert on Coruscant.

The main objective would be to keep it fun, and to allow everyone to play without anyone having to read every post in the thread. If you read the previous three posts, you should be good.

If anyone's interested, post here. If there's enough interest, I'll kick this thing off.

I like the idea, we could effecitvely restart the Jedi Expidition thread this way. Not erase everything that went before but modify our plot to be much more focused on the public spaces idea.

I still think we should keep the character approval idea though for the sake of keeping things with some organization and fitting in the time line we are playing. (it also seems to be a good policy so other players have an idea of a character's background and how we should react to them)

Another thing I might suggest is taking the idea from the "How Many can you name?" game and put a time limit of 48 hours (or even 24 hours) to respond before other players can move a scenario on to the next step. For example, with the Cantina setting if I start a bar fight everyone has 48/24 hours to post what their character does before myself or someone else makes a new post continuing the story. Mainly this would come into play when the RPG starts to slow down, if the game is progressing rapidly we wouldn't have to worry about the time.

Well my idea for a new RPG thread would be very very different from Jedi Expedition. I'm thinking of something very informal. No character creation/approval in separate threads. No worries about canon. And zero waiting for anyone else. As long as someone else has posted before you, you can post. The idea is to keep things moving very fast, but to keep it very loose and fun.

For example, if I felt like being drunk Yoda for a couple posts, I could do that. Someone else could be angry Chewy, rip off Yoda's arms, beat him in submission, and then maybe my next post would be Cad Bane coming to pick up on a bounty on Chewbacca. Other people could join in as Dengar, Bossk, or their own creations. But everyone would have to play in the same scene setting and interact with the other people there.

Think of it as a Star Wars Detours Roleplay.
