@ Jon- Awesome! I'll send you a PM about it. And now, the post that everyone's been waiting for... DETAILS ON THE RP CONTEST! Rules: - It must be an original RP. No stealing the plot of other series, of any medium. - No crossover RP's, sorry but they can get kind of confusing. In addition, this kind of falls under the category of "no stealing the plot" since you'd have to work in other RP's. So for simplicity's sake, no crossover RP's. - I know most people draw inspiration for RP's from other series, and many people do this successfully without copying the plot of another series. So please, list all of your sources. - Don't use any pictures. I'd rather this be a standalone RP based on text only. Naturally, if you plan to put your RP into action in Gendou City then there's nothing stopping you from using pictures there, but for the sake of the contest no pictures. - You can submit 2 RP's into the contest! No more than that, and once you submit your entry(s) you can't "exchange" them if you get a better idea. - Anyone can join! You don't have to be an official member of the club (Although if you've met the qualifications to join the club, I'd really appreciate it if you joined!). - Please don't post your RP's to Gendou City until after the contest has ended. I'd rather have the playing field be fair and unbiased for judging. Once the contest is entirely over however then feel free to post your ideas! Prizes: - As long as there are 3 entries to the contest, there will be a first, second, and third place. - All three prizes get some sort of GFX banner for winning, made by me. - The first prize will have all three of the judges enter their RP if they decide to post it in Gendou City! - Second and third prize just get the banner for winning and no guarantee for judges entering the RP (Although if they liked your RP enough there's a good chance they might enter it on their own accord), but naturally the banner is recognition for winning the contest! Judges: - Toyumi (Me) - ??? (Possibly Jon) - ??? (Still open, PM me if interested in judging! Must be okay with joining the winning RP and not submitting an entry to the contest. I'd also prefer if the judge is a member of Gendou RPer's United.) RP Layout (Must be followed for all entries to the contest): - Title: - Plot: - Setting: - Rules: - Other Sections: (Eg. Notes, roles/factions, etc.) - Character Sheet: (You don't have to create a character for the contest, but you must have the outline for the character sheet) - Sources for Inspiration: All RP's must be submitted to me, and not to any of the other judges! I'll send the other judges all of the entries once the contest is over. The due date for entries is January 8th, 2014, so you get a little bit over a week to come up with awesome ideas! I may extend the due date by a couple of days in the future, but for now plan on this to be the due date. I'll create the new RPer's United thread right after this post, so I'd appreciate it if all discussion of the contest is on that thread instead of this one (Since this is nearing the 1000 post limit I don't want it to get cluttered fast with questions about the contest).  |

@Toyumi - Yeah, I'd be fine with that. I have ideas for RP's, I just don't think I'd be able to draw any of them up fairly quickly.    |

Just dropping in to say hi. And... RP making contest? Whoo! Count me in, but then again, if it were to be held like this time or some months later, I doubt myself to be able to craft another RPs or even participate in another RPs because of my heavy workload in uni. So yeah, that. Oh right, this thread is getting near-er to the 1000 post limit, early congratulations! Yay~!  |

@ Misha- I don't think that just having the RP brought to life is a good enough prize, I mean it's not like I can stop other participants from posting their RP if they wanted to. Plus I was going to announce like second and third place winners too, to give them credit and say that their ideas were also very good to RP. @ Ugo- I like that idea actually, although myself I can never really be too sure of commitment to RP's with uni. But I could certainly join and try to keep up at the very least haha. @ Jon- If you'd rather not participate and create an RP then I would love to have you as a judge. There's only going to be a time frame/time limit for creating the RP and not the judging aspect of it, depending on how much material this contest gets I can expect judging might take up to a month. And thanks for understanding with the Pokemon RP, like I said I'll try to hop into it again early next week. @ Emiya- Great! I'm really glad to hear that people are interested in this contest! As for "archiving" the thread, that could be something I could work on over my winter break. I'm posting the new thread anyway so I might as well add on an archived part to it haha. |

RP making competition...? Hmm, maybe I might pitch in but don't expect anything big from me XD (I have some ideas but these might end up with half-baked) Since the thread is reaching the 1000 post mark and will be closed, I wonder is it possible to archive the thread? I remember that during the beginning of the RPers Club there are a lot of information, discussing about stuffs like RP sportsmanship, how to prevent a dead RP etcetc. Is it possible to uh, maybe extract the information? (but this would be a daunting task, sifting through hundreds of posts @_@) Just a suggestion though :x   |

I kind of like the idea, although I don't know if I'll get to participating. @Toyumi - That's fine. I'm hoping to do a post tonight in Pokemon and I intend to continue with it for as long as at least one other person is with me. I do want to see it through to the end, even though it's been taking forever. |

Hi everyone! I'm done with my first semester of uni, so I'll be around for about a month. Although, some plans came up recently so you might not really see me be active until another week, but I'll be around. And wow, this club has almost 1000 posts! This thread has come so far since I started it so many years ago, I'm glad to see people liked it enough to come and stick around and chat. I'll work on making a new thread that should be up in the next couple of days for when this one gets closer to the 1000 post mark. Also, I've had an idea of maybe running a contest on here? A make your own RP sort of thing, and whoever's RP is the best (In the eyes of the three judges, one of which will be me) will win. There won't be any real prize for this, other than knowing that your idea had the greatest potential out of all the others in the contest. I'll work out the idea more in the coming week, but what do you guys think? Keep in mind though that you might have only have 2 weeks or so to create your idea when the contest starts, so keep that in mind as well. Also, if you're not interested in making your own RP but you still want to take part in the contest, then you can always be a judge. Just let me know in this thread if you'd like to be in the consideration for being a judge. I'm basing the other judges based upon their RPing experience (If there are more than two people who want to be judges haha). Or if you could either be a participant or a judge and don't care which of the two you are, just comment that as well. Like I said, I'll figure more of this out in the coming week, it's just a very rough idea at the moment. @ Jon- If you and Haseo want to continue the RP, then just feel free to go without me. I'll be tied up a bit for the next week (And maybe a little bit of the week after too), so I'll just read along and pop back in whenever the chance presents itself, and whenever I have the chance to post at the same time >.> @ Night- I remember you, welcome back! :D |

@Haseo - That's fine. I've been pretty flat out with work lately because of the time of year it is. Hoping to get another post done early next week, maybe Sunday. As for The End of the World, I'm going to wait another day or so and see if Emiya gets a reply in before I make mine. |

Hi all. Basically the same Finals update here too. For the next week or two EotW will more than likely be on hiatus. The next arc is about to happen, and I certainly want to not be distracted (or be distracted from) when kicking it off. I can still post in Camelina since I don't have quite as much responsibilities in that one. Though I'll just say I'm going to play back seat and hope the not so common rpers take initiative this time. o.< I can possibly see things choking up while people wonder when to start the concert, so get at it people! |

@Jon: Just a heads up, but it's finals time for me. I have papers to write now until Monday, and finals from Monday to Thursday with me flying home on Friday. I know it's not a large problem, but I just thought I'd let you know that the soonest I can get a post out is next weekend.

Ahah, sorry for disappearing on and off and making people wait on me in End of the World. It's been a combination of Uni work and getting involved in school events. Finals are coming up too, but I'll try to squeeze in whatever free time I get into posting. I'm personally interested in joining Landon's new RP. But since it's already started, I'll go ahead and wait for a better time to jump in (presumably the welcome ceremony). Whatever the case, I hope it goes well, since it seems to have attracted some different people! |

@Toyumi: The internship was kind of difficult, been working in 12 hour shifts and all. Glad that I managed to survive and finished it XD That is nice, having a lot of ideas XD And yeah, I think you are right. Starting an RP is easier than maintaining it till the end. As for the situation in the City well, in TEW (The End of the World and After) we are basically waiting for Ugo's next post. Mirrors however, that's... a complicated issue. Glad that another simple slice of life like Camelia University appears though... |

@Toyumi - I understand that. Haseo has expressed interest in continuing the Pokemon RP regardless, so it will likely just be me and him for a time. I'll probably keep your character dragged along in case you end up wanting to post at any point, but I'm also going to see if anyone else has interest in joining the RP to at least give us three active people again. |
