[Azure Flames 303]

seen like it wonder if it will stay like that or some drama will change it up  

 

and lol im a dude too so i wonder what Rambler person is thinking   

 

 it kind of hard to play a female character XD cant think of the right things to say or act sometime 

 

 

my original plan was to read the trip and wait till the island before coupling up but i saw the coupling already start practically so i just stuck with Rambler

Aha XD It is hard to play a female character, Even if I'm a female myself XD Girls are very complicated though, Its very true.

And the Coupling, Gods xD Some things have already gone a certain way between Palette and Wildcard XD I don't even know what to do with it now that I've posted it

The biggest issue I am facing is that I am not awake when most of you guys are posting xD

And another way to get a bit of diversity and dynamic in the RP would be that the ponies on the island have to "team up" and spend time with ponies other than their partner like it happens on almost every trip every now and then.

I am definately looking forward to leave the blimp soon.

PS: It's not easy to write a male character's lines either. I have a bit of a block sometimes and RPing is sometimes quite challenging for me^^

I'll go look at it. Sorry if I caused a problem. The only problem now is that I need twelve more characters.

 

Okay, yeah. I would basically have to delete my entire post for that to make any sense, so I suggest we just pretend that somewhere in between waking up and giving him the book, I explained what happened as in my post.

[Pixel Mouse 84]

Don't know if you guys are noticing, but we are currently only one post away from hitting 100 total posts.

Also I like the look of this island. Looks like Scarlet's idea of volleyball might come to pass.

[Snowdream 221]

ok so sorry i have not really posted much lately.

 

so we have a couple of options:

 

The island could be inhabited, or uninhabited (would be no houses or other ponies)

 

how do you want to do the 'team' thing, and we will do that after the OC's have had a bit more time together, to get to know each other.

 

so basically what are your thoughts on things.

[Azure Flames 303]

it depends 

if inhabited is it going to be like 1)natives, 2)a private resort, or 3)one private mansion 

 

if 1) then i dont mind native if they are not the cannibalistic type

 

if 2) then if goes more with the romance theme we are going for

 

if 3) then it depend on the mansion is it like a fancy recently built one or a haunted on that looks spooky which i can see some scenario playing out in either mansion types

 

if uninhabited then then im imagining something like a cross between survivor and some reality dating show

 

im good with whatever we go with

 

for teams, Whatever you wanna do is fine

It would be kind of creepy if the island were completely uninhabited, so I'd prefer there were natives or something. I don't really care about the rest.

I would go for the mansion/resort theme. Why would somepony send out tickets for a stay at the Island without having shelter for the guests?

I think a beautiful resort at the beach and a bit behind that there is the wilderness seems fine. Maybe somepony has just decided to use the island for tourism, but the island isn't fully explored yet.

To the team events I would suggest that different ponies are doing different activities tasks sometimes

And if you want you can search for a nice island map that we can use as a template for our roleplay

Hey folks, something I think we could implement, is, in the example of Somber and Peach, perhaps when they are out of earshot of the rest of the group they could PM each other on the forum instead of posting their conversation publicly in the thread.

That way, it adds not only mild secrecy and drama, but also prevents subtle god modes by players reading others posts, and then reacting based on them even though their character technically couldn't hear the conversation.

However, I will note that I think when players do have a "secret" conversation, the lead-up should be public, then we know that information has been exchanged. (Though we don't know what.) Somber beckoning peach was a perfect lead-up in this way.

Really what I am saying is don't PM unless it's OOC or you've posted publicly that you and CharacterName are entering a private message, or have a lead-up to a private conversation.

Once the conversation is interrupted, posts would have to be public on the main thread, or the newcomer would be added to the PM so they can see what happens next in the conversation.

Also in terms of simplicity we should say that unless it effects the story in a substantial way or/and you simply don't want what you talked about to be public, don't PM in every private situation, just the important ones. That way the story keeps moving and the thread stays active.

Little complex, but I think this could make things very interesting.

Yes? No? Maybe? Ideas/thoughts?

Sorry but I am not quite sure I understand. (IMA BLONDE! (May take a bit for me to understand)) can you try explaining it again? XD I get the whole out of earshot not seeing thing, but I'm just wondering if people might get lost.

If two characters want to have a discussion that they don't want other characters to hear, then they can create a scenario like you and Somber Tunes and private message each other so the things they discuss are private.

For example if Somber Tunes wanted to tell you about his secrect about the (for example) evil turtles. He could basically do what he did in the RP. He would beckon you over to him, allowing everyone to know that you and him where discussing in private.

 

 

That way, when other people read the thread, they dont see Somber talking about turtles.

Now what if Somber told you that in an upcoming challenge, the turtles would somehow bite and injure anyone who got near them. Now you know not to go near the turtles, but no one else does. Thus, you avoid the turtles but everyone else gets bitten.

 

This is handy, because if Somber told you that the turtles would bite you in the public thread, anyone who read it would probably avoid the turtles as a half-intentional god mode. I would guess that most people here would probably try to play it as if they actualy had no idea and walk into the turtles, but even still it would prevent the few people who did intentionally avoid the turtles. (It's basicly anti-god mode.)

 

 

Then, in the regular thread, maybe Scarlet Rose walks up to you. Now that Scarlet has kind of "come into earshot", you can't use the personal message anymore, because then Scarlet wouldnt hear you, even thought she's next to you now. So now you have a choice.

 

 

You can add her to the private message, and tell her about the biting turtles, or you can post back in the public thread, and stop talking about the biting turtles so no one will ever know.

 

 

It also adds the element of secrets between players. What where you and Somber talking about anyway? It both breaks trust between characters and makes trust with whoever you're having the private conversation with stronger.

 

 

Really it's just for drama, I think it would make suspicions about other characters way deeper, and make drama feel real, as there are actually secrects between players, gaps in what people know about each other, even when OOC.

 

Is this a little easier to understand? Sorry, I ended up typing way too much and got carried away with my ideas... xD

[Budding Night 1,043]

xD I haven't been reading this thread latley O_O Seems like I need to more often xD

 

I think your idea with the private PM thing is a great idea, Pixel, I can see alot of good intentions for using that

 

And as for the Island Layout (or whatever you want to call it), I agree with Wildcard, Whats the point of a free vacation without hospitality? Also, @Snowdream, If you want I can sketch up afew wild maps for the island, I could do alot and most of them would be pretty different. Do you want me to have a shot at dat?

[Budding Night 1,043]

Why does it seem that no one really sees my posts apart from Wildcard?

I feel so close to being alone

Hmmm... I see your posts. Don't know about the others though.

If I can see them I would assume that they can, but I'm not sure...

[Azure Flames 303]

srry  

i notice that you posted but there were so many post coming in all at once i just started skimming everything so i can get a post in

[Pixel Mouse 84]

Uhhhhh guys...? Why did MoonSparkle randomly post in our RP. I guess as she's an interesting character to add in, but she never signed up for RP. Is someone here using her as a second account?

[Undyne 1,483]

MoonSparkle went up to scarlet with blazing eyes, "what do you think your doing?" she demanded lashing her purple tail, "how dare you intrupt my star gazing, i will throw you all out" she exclaimed glaring at all of the intruding pony's

 

"Well wheres your apology?" she demanded the small ginger hair starting to bristle along her orange body, getting bored of waiting for a answer she used her magic to lift scarlet and the other pony's into the air "your staying like that until you tell me what on earth your doing here" she snorted

 

She retreated a few steps before sitting down

MoonSparkle, you have no permission to post in our RP unless you receive permission by Snowdream. And we are full as of now, so do not post in the RP anymore please.

Throws telescope at Rose before walking away muttering about spoling my rp fun

 

Casts a spell causing all the ponys to turn into toads, "well next time you will let me in your role play" she taunted them before opening her orange wings and flying away

[Budding Night 1,043]

MoonSparkle, Don't post in our Roleplay, There are no more sign ups and you were not given permission to post.

 

 

Well anyways guys, I'm heading off to School Camp for a week and can't post So please excuse me for being inactive, I'll will post when I return, Goodbye! /)

[Undyne 1,483]

Azure, it does screw Somber over quite a bit. He's not used to yelling, or just talking in general. So, that exerted force had basically been too much for him.

[Snowdream 221]

uh guys? no one is posting in the roleplay... why? no one has posted for over 24 hours... i am waiting for

 @ to respond...
