ooc Camping Trip. (Romance Based RP)

[Descant 1,898]

So it moves from romantic to Titanic... It would be awesome if that rhymed.

Anyhow, Yea I like the cruise idea.

GEN-YUS! We could name the RP "Romantic goes Titanic", and name the cruise ship the Romantic. Some of the people who sign up might not realize that means it crashes.

[Marathon 562]

Yeah the cruise ship idea is good. But ill go with whatever we decide to do. Oh and Morningstar, you kind of made a huge mistake telling my OC about the accidental killing. Incase you havent noticed Stacy is sensitive. saying something like that is not the best idea with her.

[MelancholicMemory 2,027]

I have an idea that might tie all the ideas together. Here's a description.

 

Several months after the camping trip our characters gather to take a cruise to some destination. They are not alone on the ship. Several other characters are there as well (Descant, this is where you come in). However the ship crashes and sinks, leaving our heroes to attempt to salvage there vacation while trying to survive and find civilization.

 

Essentially I want to emphasize relationships and an almost romantic comedy kind of feel over the idea of making it a tragedy like Titanic or a Man vs Wild scenario, though I love the idea about the S.S. Romantic. I think we should start looking for new people for the RP as soon as this drama with Yavolin dies down. Also Airy and Scamps should totally reenact scenes from the Titanic like someone said before. That would be awesome!

 

Also I have a brilliant idea for how the ship sinks, but you'll have to wait for the RP to see it.

Yes actually, the cruise was mentioned in the RP already, Sky had told Marisa that for a first date him and her could get set up on a cruise ship, then Marisa suggested we bring everypony along.

About the cruise thing:

 

Every time I see ideas about a cruise, I have to think of a Pokémon episode from the first season (episode 16, "Pokémon Shipwreck"). In this episode the protagonists try to escape from a sunk ship which had sunk at the end of the episode before. As I like this idea, I'd suggest to use this in a new RP as well. (Just an idea.)

As long as you don't make me trade my Butterfree for a stinking Raticate, I'm fine with this idea.

Don't worry, you won't get my Rattata... I couldn't ever give away a Lv1 pokémon that's able to defeat a Lv100 Arceus xDBut we're getting off-topic.I don't think the "Escape from the ship" plot is enough for a whole RP, but as we might sink anywhere, we can also have the problem of finding land or being rescued. This also can take a few days^^ (And if even that isn't enough, there still is the lost island idea.)

And it's not like we have to crash the ship the first day. It can crash at the end of day two, and we could spend three days on the island. Assuming we actually choose to do an island.

Looks like the RP is wrapping up. Is it safe to assume that most of the characters who went camping will go on the Cruise? If the mare:stallion ratio proves necessary, I could use Rose Petal instead of Descant. Both links are conveniently located on my sig.

It is probably best if you use Descant because we are currently lacking in male characters.

That's what I figured, but seeing as there was a lot of interest in joining this RP at one point, I doubt I'd be the only one jumping at the chance to join the sequel. So I just thought I'd point out that it doesn't matter which I use, in case we do get a flood. Make sense?

Yeah, it makes sense. I just think most of the new characters would have to be male anyway because of the current inequality. The way I see it, we could have 2-3 new female characters and 4-5 new male characters.

well i can always RP two characters if we have to. Ive done it before its not a problem for me. I actualy kind of enjoy it.

I'd prefer not to, but I can RP two characters. I can have one of the Twins come along if it seems necessary.

hmm, perhaps i can bring Little Hop in. Two best friends on a cruise and then they end up meeting everyone else on the ship. I think the sequle is going to turn out better than this one.

I'd prefer to just recruit some new people because it will add more variety to the RP and make it more interesting. If nobody wants to join though, I guess we could just RP as multiple characters. I have plenty of other OCs to bring in too.

Alright, well someone needs to start the OOC discusion thread. I dont know how to do it so i cant.

[Nicolae Carpathia 140]

I will when i get home, but ya'll have to wait awhile becasue i have to ride the bus just to get to my house.

[Descant 1,898]

I would, but I'm not sure how either, plus I'm kind of in the middle of a take-home test, so I'm kind of busy. Just make sure, whoever starts the thread, to provide a link!

[MelancholicMemory 2,027]

I'm going to go start the OOC discussion thread for the new RP. Hopefully we'll get a lot of responses.

Okay. I hope I'm one of the first!  

Make sure you mention it's a sequel to this RP. Plz

[MelancholicMemory 2,027]

The topic has been made. Here it is: http://mlpforums.com/topic/40644-the-ss-romantic-romance-based-rp/#entry960015

Everybody go over there and confirm your participation in the RP, okay? Descant, make sure to say which OC you're using.

[Windy Scamper 403]

Hey, in case people forgot...

Airy andScamps are stuck in a cave

Basically, don't start the new one without us, please!

We're just setting up the new one. Surely some time passes between the Camping Trip and the Cruise. A week, at the very least...
