I'm not one to give up so easily. Isn't there something we could do about it? We dont have enough practice, Maybe the problem is(no offense to the dearest and most repsected Game Master)that we are being too SERIOUS about the whole thing. I think that if we kind of lightened up then it'd be ok. Can we try it again?If you dont want to Feraway I can.
No WONDER I wasn't gettin' any PMS my STUPID box is too full. Why wont it tell me that dang it all?

If you want to try it, go for it. I have absolutly no problem with that and if you succed, more power to ya. But i think I'm going to take a break from the RP thing for awile. The weather is finally getting good, might go out and do some yard stuff

Rána Eressëa · 02-20-2002, 08:01 PM

Ah, there is hope yet! Lil' Sam, if you still want to go on with it, I've got your back. We don't really need a GM, let's just write what we write. But, hm, if Feraway's quitting, what do we do about her character? We are at her house after all.

Feraway Hawkbriar · 02-20-2002, 08:48 PM

Well, you could just restart it in another thread and do it your way from the beginning. But if you dont want to do that...well... I'd...kinda prefer not haveing my charecter used, but if you feel its necessary you can use my charecter...I dont mind very much. But since I'm not involved anymore it would only mean extra typing for you.

btw, the people who volunteered to play Merry and Pippin are Nariel Starshine(Merry) and Glorious Glorfindel(Pippin). Just so you know.

Nariel Starfire · 02-21-2002, 01:03 PM

I would gladly volunteer to play a couple of extra parts. I bet we could continue the game as it is if one or two people took over Feraway's and FF's parts. And, if we just have fun with it, I bet we could save this RPG!

Glorious Glorfindel · 02-21-2002, 03:03 PM

I will also gladly b in the role play, i don't really care which character i play, as long as he/she is short and light, and maybe has blonde hair!
tee hee hee

samwise of the shire · 02-22-2002, 06:43 PM

Ok you guys. Rally. We have two choices:#1.To start ALL over again with new charecters and new players and all that or #2.We could start where we left off in the old one and introduce them on the way to Gwens. I think that the former would be easiest. What do you guys think. And Welcome Nariel and Glourious to the RPG.
Sam

Glorious Glorfindel · 02-23-2002, 08:47 AM

Thanks Samwise!
hhhhhoooommmm
i think it would probably b easier to go with the first option Samwise!

Rána Eressëa · 02-23-2002, 02:02 PM

Number One.

Evenstar · 02-23-2002, 09:11 PM

Definitly number one!!

Nazgûl Queen · 02-24-2002, 12:35 AM

Definately number one....
And could I possibly play one of you're friends from school as well as being your Dunadain guide in Middleearth???

Nariel Starfire · 02-24-2002, 01:03 AM

Number One

Can I be a teenager as well as Merry? Also, are we keeping the same plot? I hope so...

Wayfarer · 02-24-2002, 04:44 PM

I'm confused.

What just happened?

Wayfarer · 02-24-2002, 05:57 PM

*Shakes head tiredly*

Primary observation: I am appearently the only person here who has any XP with RP. Am I right?

I must honestly say that there's no need for a GM with the type of thing we're doing here. Because we're not using stats and numbers and all that stuff, and we have lots of people to take the place of NPC's.

My experience has been that a RP goes smoothly when everybody converses and decides on what to do. ( I.E. 'We're just making small talk now') and then continues from there. Changes in what's going on (I.E. ' A dragon has attacked our city') are generally introduced by a single person, who is always smart to announce it ahead of time ('<OOC: I'm writing something now, can everybody just stay where they are for a while?>)

And, even if everybody is agreed on everything, you need to have a feel for RP as a whole, and your character in particular. And those both take experience.

*Ding*
Your Level has increased!
You have become better at Windy Monolog!
A disgruntled poster glares at you, what would you like on your tombstone?

samwise of the shire · 02-24-2002, 06:17 PM

Number one it is. We'll start a new one and you guys'll post your bios and character descriptions. And yes if you want to be a teenager as well as a Hobbit or Duendain or whatever that's actually a GREAT idea. It will be called Deigned Worthy of Legend like the first one. I'll start it now.
Sam

FrodoFriend · 02-26-2002, 11:12 PM

Wait, why is Tanaquil back on DWoL? I'm not writing her, but she is my invention (and I use that name a lot).

samwise of the shire · 02-27-2002, 06:03 PM

Because I thought you were gonna keep on going to write there. I dont remember you saying anything about not wanting to be in there. Who wants to stay in the RPG? I need to know. Or you need to start posting.
Sam

FrodoFriend · 02-28-2002, 01:28 AM

Well, I quit originally, and I wasn't planning on joining up again. RPs really aren't my thing, apparently.

Rána Eressëa · 02-28-2002, 09:03 PM

I don't know. I'm a little dazed and confused and flooded with homework and presentations at the moment.

Wayfarer · 02-28-2002, 09:11 PM

You girls just need practice.

Lots and lots and lots...

Erm... check this out. You might find it interesting.
