Okay.
Fuck.
Lets try this again you guys.
If you didn't know (which is completely possible) I put a session together a lil while ago.
If you didn't know that then you also didn't know that it was pretty much a trainwreck cuz I did it stupidly at first but I think I got it this time.
Okay let me stop acting stupid and start taking this seriously.
In the first try at a session, things took a turn for the worst when a bunch of people didn't actually want to take part, or just kinda dropped off the face of the earth for a long amount of time and just didn't have the time. Those of us that were still around were just being silly and stupid all the GODDAMN TIME then nothing got done and it constantly needed to be kept in check otherwise people would start dying for no reason what so fucking ever.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I said fuck it and started it over on a better note..which is this.
Now the biggest difference between this and the last one is that This one has a LOT of rules and guidelines to conduct in the chat and for making your character. lemme start listing them off so you know what you are getting yourself into.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CHARACTER CREATION
This is important because if you have a character that you normally get on as, you will be prone to making him..well..just you, and not quirky at all.
When I say interesting I do NOT mean they all have main character syndrome. You have to make your characters fun to interact with and not just make them you with superpowers or you who is also a bear I guess? Give your character layers is what I'm trying to say here.
That is right there will be no god tiers in this session. Mostly the reason behind this is the power struggle that was going on with it. Due to there being no god tiers in this session there will be NO ONE with their full set of powers to their titles..or even any powers at all in most cases. So dont plan on going god tier ight?
This session isn't just a team effort, it's a effort of self as well. You can have your character go out and do their own thing for a while if you feel like they need to grow and develop in small or large (but not too large) ways. Of course this will have to be recorded so other people can keep up but I'll get more into that in a bit.
RULES
What this basicly means is no random nerfgun/pie/whatever fights every damn day. there will be no more "oh right and i set you house on fire" shit anymore and no alchemizing shit just to fuck with people. NO MORE. NONE.
At the same time there will be little to no forced drama going on. no characters going off the deep end and killing people for no plot related reason, fighting for the sake of having a rival or going out of your way to make your character DARK unless its suppose to be done silly and they aren't really that way and they just put up a act for people for no real reason.
Seriously people are getting pissed at me cuz of this. cut it out.
Pretty much explains itself.
While im giving a lot of freedom to do what you want and taking away a few things as well in this session..if i say flat out not to do something..i will normally REALLY mean it. So PLEASE..unless its for a good reason..dont do what I say not to do..ok?
By this I mean for the love of god PLEASE do not project the way you are feeling that day out of the in character chat or activities..we are role playing to escape remember? If you are dragging your day and frustrations into the role play, you are just plain doing it wrong.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Any and all rules or character creation guidelines that may resemble things that have happened at one point with certain people are purely coincidental.
ANYWAY
A few more things I need to say before we start the sign up.
First of all once everything is set up again I will be making ANOTHER thread about the session itself. you NEED to add content to it..often..most of the problem with the first session was that NO ONE REALLY KNEW WHAT THE FUCK WAS GOING ON EVER...or at least I didn't. So needless to say this time around it will NOT be happening that way.
Along with that if you don't feel like you will be able to take part on a regular basis..there isn't really much reason to sign up...so just keep that in mind.
Oh and one more thing. there will ONLY be 8 people in this session....but I think I will be doing some interviews so if 8 people already signed up in the thread, don't be scared to jump in too you might just get in anyway.
So yes shit lets start this sign up.
If you want in then RIGHT NOW all i need you to do is say I or IN or something along those lines.
SO GET CRACKING.

CHARACTER CREATION
- YOUR CHARACTER SHOULD BE A NEW CHARACTER THEN WHAT YOUR NORMALLY GET ONLINE AS
This is important because if you have a character that you normally get on as, you will be prone to making him..well..just you, and not quirky at all.
- YOUR CHARACTER MUST BE FAIRLY INTERESTING
When I say interesting I do NOT mean they all have main character syndrome. You have to make your characters fun to interact with and not just make them you with superpowers or you who is also a bear I guess? Give your character layers is what I'm trying to say here.
- THERE WILL BE NO DAMN GOD TIERS THIS SESSION
That is right there will be no god tiers in this session. Mostly the reason behind this is the power struggle that was going on with it. Due to there being no god tiers in this session there will be NO ONE with their full set of powers to their titles..or even any powers at all in most cases. So dont plan on going god tier ight?
- YOUR CHARACTER HAS HIS OWN STORY! LIVE IT THE HELL OUT!
This session isn't just a team effort, it's a effort of self as well. You can have your character go out and do their own thing for a while if you feel like they need to grow and develop in small or large (but not too large) ways. Of course this will have to be recorded so other people can keep up but I'll get more into that in a bit.
RULES
- THIS SESSION WILL NOT BE OVERLY SILLY OR SERIOUSLY.
What this basicly means is no random nerfgun/pie/whatever fights every damn day. there will be no more "oh right and i set you house on fire" shit anymore and no alchemizing shit just to fuck with people. NO MORE. NONE.
At the same time there will be little to no forced drama going on. no characters going off the deep end and killing people for no plot related reason, fighting for the sake of having a rival or going out of your way to make your character DARK unless its suppose to be done silly and they aren't really that way and they just put up a act for people for no real reason.
- NO STICKING YOUR HEAD INTO OTHER PEOPLES SESSIONS
Seriously people are getting pissed at me cuz of this. cut it out.
- YOUR WEAPONS CANT BE SO OVERPOWERED THAT YOU CAN BEAT EVERYONE IN ANY FIGHT EVER
Pretty much explains itself.
- IF I SAY TO (OR NOT TO) DO SOMETHING, THE THING I SAID DOES NOT STOP BEING A THING IF I AM NOT LOOKING.
While im giving a lot of freedom to do what you want and taking away a few things as well in this session..if i say flat out not to do something..i will normally REALLY mean it. So PLEASE..unless its for a good reason..dont do what I say not to do..ok?
- PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TRY AND LEAVE HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT THINGS OOC AWAY FROM IC
By this I mean for the love of god PLEASE do not project the way you are feeling that day out of the in character chat or activities..we are role playing to escape remember? If you are dragging your day and frustrations into the role play, you are just plain doing it wrong.
