What you have is okay so far.

In any case...anyone else? I guess the role-play will start once we get five people signed up.

Can I have a scientist in this RP?
Yeah, they're acceptable...but I'm not quite sure what benefit(s) they'd have...

Ok.  And one of the rules don't make any sense.  Is there or is there not blood and gore allowed?

Oh, I just saw that. Sorry, I wrote it while it was still pretty early in the morning. Fixed the spelling mistake.

So we've got 3 so far. personally I don't go in for excessive blood and gore, So any violence I engage will be restrained. If violence serves the storyline then so be, But violence for violence's sake is poiontlesss imo...

I didn't expect excessive blood and gore - just a little bit. And I understand about you being restrained and all. But granted, since we have prehistoric creatures of all shapes and sizes running around, there's bound to be a bit of carnage.

Holy cow! Really? That's surprising. Well, now that I've re-read what I've written, I've realized that I wrote that when I was really hyped up about role-playing it. But, well, now the hype is gone, so...um...

Reality has set in  :lol:  But yeah, you can rp with one other person, in fact its really quite simple. It's a mmatter of give and take. The story we have made basically goes like this : I'm into magic and fantasy, He's into  Star Trek and other Sci Fi.  Sometimes the combination works, sometimes it doesn't.We try and set boundaries (No omnipotent creatures etc) but basically we just let our imiginations have free reign.  What we do is play off each other, and my inbox is fill of pm where we have hashed out question about characteres in the RP.  If you read from the beginning, you'll probably get lost as every now and then we bring back a character or subplot froim 20 pages previous... But It's worked well for nearly 300 pages, and we're already planning a sequel... :lol:  So if you care to read it .. be sure to read all of it, or as much as you can. Skim if you want...

Nah. I think I'll manage without a list.

YOu may think Threehorn is a good role player.  But believe me, he isn't.  He is extremly selfish when he joins other people's RPGs.  He swooped down and butchered my very first RPG to the point where it was unrecognizable, he changed the appearance of my character without my permission and he took over the story like Hitler took over Europe.  I'm not the only person who's been attacked by Threehorn.  F-14's Star Wars RPGs were also screwed by him as well.  

Whatever you do, don't let him join your RPGs.  EVER!  :angry:

From what I've read so far (I'm currently on page 2 of the Sowarkard topic), I don't think Threehorn is a good role-player. Posts less than a paragraph in length are often the tell-tale sign of a newbie - in the site I usually role-play at, there's three, sometimes four paragraphs a post...or maybe I'm just saying that because I'm used to writing a lot in responce. I dunno.
