Re: VIP Roleplaying Board announcement
I must say, this idea catches my interest. When you get the chance, I'd love to undergo the trial.
Unlike most everyone else, I don't have any questions; although that's more due to my questions having been asked already.

I'd also like to try my hand at passing the test, I await your trial prompt with great interest.

Re: VIP Roleplaying Board announcement
Although I already posted in the other board, I'll mention again that I would like to be part of the new boards as well.
Re: VIP Roleplaying Board announcement
Hmm, although I'd love to join; my state activations tend to be a curse. Also, for the test, I tend to suffer shyness and confusion between a supposed 1 vs 1 deal and will most likely blow it out of proportion. In order to get a feel for it I'll more than likely have to see an already approved test. In the meantime, I'll ponder whether or not I should join.
The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.

Re: VIP Roleplaying Board announcement
Combat centric would be any RPs, to me, aren't about the amount of fighting that takes place, but how much the players and GM seem to focus on how combat compatible the characters are. If everyone can wield a weapon, its probably combat centric. If anyone has a power of some sort that can cause damage, its probably combat centric.TheDragonfiend wrote:Hmmm what constitutes as "combat-centric" the literal translation where its just fight fight fight... Or something else like "oh ill fight if i have the opertunity weather its a good idea or mot but i wont fight without reason"... Cuz i tend to get pretty aggressive with my playstyle as my character grows and attains a more... Acceptable level of fight survival unless of course im playin the romantic card in that case i just fight to protect my love and all that jazz...
Anytime where the game puts players in a mind set where they have to think about fight survivability or power level, is probably combat centric.

Re: VIP Roleplaying Board announcement
I'd suggest that it has to do with how situations are resolved. If combat is what the characters turn to in order to resolve the average situation, it's going to be a combat-centric RP. You might all be FBI agents, and therefore all carrying service pistols and be well-versed in their use, but if the RP's theme is that shoot-outs are an incredibly bad idea, and if you get involved in a fight, you'd better have a darn good reason, you probably aren't in a combat-centric game. In that sort of a game, it's probably more investigative-themed, with a strong focus on skill use and talking your way out of situations, even though "everyone can wield a weapon." If the average complication results in a fight; it's combat-centric. If the average complication results in a role-playing event (talking your way into or out of a situation, defusing a bomb, starting a fire as a diversion, whatever), then the game isn't combat-centric, even if the characters are combat-capable.Kilroywuzheere wrote:Combat centric would be any RPs, to me, aren't about the amount of fighting that takes place, but how much the players and GM seem to focus on how combat compatible the characters are.

And then there's people like me, who're trying to leverage novel writing skill and extensive tabletop experience into something that works in forum style RP.

Re: VIP Roleplaying Board announcement
Hmm, I'm a little on the fence about this, I've only played in 2 RPs and both of them have died not too long since I joined (Still hoping that Roll to Dodge isn't dead).
Problem? Take it up with my Panzer.

Re: VIP Roleplaying Board announcement
I don't know if I'm eligible considering my 2 disappearances, but as I do believe I'm finally back for good, I would be interested in this.

Re: VIP Roleplaying Board announcement
I second this... it's been three days for me, and maybe I'm just impatient, but shouldn't I have at least heard something by now? Really, anything. Or am I alone in not hearing anything?D3ADKi113R wrote:Also, just wondering, how long till you will get back to us on our answer?

Give it a little time. You're not missing out on a whole lot yet.
