Gone Gonzo Posts: 1853 Joined: 13 Dec 2007 | Once the cyberpunk lynching game is done, I'm going to run one of my own (hopefully). I have a very strong idea of what I want to do, but I'd like to know what 'the public' wants. It's pretty much entirely realistic (with maybe a few stretches of truth). Would people like if it featured a massive conspiracy or spirits, or something else out of the norm? |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1719 Joined: 13 Sep 2007 | I'm sure whatever you did would be good, but perhaps you could give some details onwhat you want to do, Larenxis? |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2665 Joined: 8 May 2008 | sad thing is...I don't know what RP stands for...no one ever says, and I've never seen one on a forum before...sad...I know... anyway, comedy. |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 794 Joined: 22 Mar 2008 | You dont know what RP means? HANG YOUR HEAD IN SHAME. SHAAAAAAAME. Anyway, the acronym RP stands for roleplay, as in roleplaying game. So from the polls, I see that the horror genre is in the front, which pleases Cthulhu... I mean me, not a star travelling entity of madness. Maybe a horror themed RP is what the public wants? |
Copy Clerk Posts: 65 Joined: 27 Jun 2008 | I dont mind what type of game it is as long as I get some sort of sniper rifle or some other weapon which has good acuracy. Stupid picture wont work... |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1853 Joined: 13 Dec 2007 | Well, my idea is for a lynching game, so horror is part of the bargain. I shall frighten you with murder and adjectives! But yeah, I don't want to share the idea right now, as I'm still doing research. Maybe I should do it after the lynching game after the cyberpunk one, so I can read a book or two. Curse you, historical situations! so interesting, but so little information on the wikipedia page... It'll probably be set between 1998 and the present, (if I go with the idea I'm chasing after) by the way. |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 794 Joined: 22 Mar 2008 | Great idea, and its helped even more by your upside down 666 post count. =P |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1259 Joined: 29 Dec 2007 | I like RP's where I get something to go for and have to aim for it. I don't like open ended questions and RP's. |

...couldnt just call it rpg eh? I am in shame anyway |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2892 Joined: 4 May 2008 | I chose "other idea", so here I go with the whole "specify" bit. You are a ragtag band of misfits trying to topple a totalitarian government. BUT the entire plot must have an offbeat sense of humour. |

I've already signed on! Yeah, I was wanting to do a D20 Call Of Cthulhu game but two main reasons I haven't: |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 794 Joined: 22 Mar 2008 | So, does everyone want a horror RP next time? |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 706 Joined: 19 Dec 2007 |
Colour me interested. In fact, select a random colour, *name* it Interested, and colour me that. |

You are green. Happy |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 794 Joined: 22 Mar 2008 | So a tie for fantasy and horror? I just hope it isnt fantasy, at least not the next RP. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1065 Joined: 12 Jun 2008 |
I have played a few Cthulu games, I would say only 4 though...and only 2 of them were done by people who were good and it wasnt their first time lol. |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 768 Joined: 1 Jan 2008 | I want a Team Fortress 2 RP.Anybody willing to start one? I'm taking the sniper! |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 794 Joined: 22 Mar 2008 | So it looks like people want to be in a fantasy RP. How about something from "A Song of Ice and Fire"? Or would that have too much realism involved? |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 794 Joined: 22 Mar 2008 | Damn, people here really like their fantasy stuff. Here I was, hoping for more horror fans. =P |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2900 Joined: 27 Apr 2008 | personnally I vote other I had a good idea for a mafia RP but I don't have the time to write or DM it |
Paperboy Posts: 21 Joined: 18 Jun 2008 | A fantasy setting that strays away from the usual: elf, orc, gobling, bullcrap! |
Copy Clerk Posts: 107 Joined: 23 Jan 2008 | I haven't seen many proper comedy RPG campaigns out there, there should be more! |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1259 Joined: 29 Dec 2007 | I've got an idea, but lack the motivation to do something with it fast. There's more but its all ideas been ironed out and plot work right now, should be cool if you like that sort of thing, you know angel, the spook's apprentice things along those lines. But I might not even got it to print, so to speak. This is what I want *Not gore. |

So the aim of the game is to have fun, right? But what if your short on idea's, and you lose your buzz halfway through the game? Players dropping off like flies? Well, I hope this topic can help!
What, you ask, is this about? This topic is hereby dedicated to RP ideas, and can be used to discuss what people want to play in and what people want to try next. I hope that you all contribute strongly and positively to this thread, and give out a lot of great ideas.
So, I guess I'll go first. What I would like to see is a horror themed RP, naturally set in the HP Lovecraft universe.
I dont really have much else to say, so I guess I'll be waiting to see what you think.
