Hmm. Great writers.. And no RPers... This somehow reminds me those Clash of the Titans gig the old timers played around with. Not necessarily an RP, but everybody can join and put their 50 cents in about how Bobnito's Char is way better than Rolando's and all those little stuff.
Hmmm.
Even if I would suggest doing that, I'm not entirely sure. Would the esteemed writers want a weekly showdown between two characters just for the sake of violence between said characters? And would they join/vote?
Jack Ripper, what do you think?

QUOTE(Lady Saga @ Mar 7 2012, 05:16 PM) I don't get it. What's the diff between roleplayers and story-writers?
Well roleplayers, in the forum interact with several people on a topic, Um, how do I put it; Jericho glances at his side to Lady Saga, "New to town?" he asks placing a hand on the map on the side of his belt. then in the next post you will RP as Lady Saga answering Jericho's question and moving on with the plot. Granted I do not give the best example, but it's something like that. While story writers Rp alone without waiting for someones response, does this make sense?

Truly? Well, thats good news! And don't worry about sucking at RPs. Just have some fun while the plot flows forward. Thats what I did in my first real rp. Look at The Shards of Broken Emperors RP. There is another similary named RP, so dont be confused.
Anyway, in my first RP, I immediately crossed daggers with a fellow RPer and after a fight, we joined forces and set off a mutiny on the boat we're in. KEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE. Good times.

OH I get it. So that's literally like play-acting style of roleplay. BAck in the tabletop days (DnD, TFT, Runequest, etc.) there were 2 styles of gameplay. We used little lead figureines on a hexboard to simulate gameplay. Some other people play-acted everything with no little models. I could never get into play-acting myself, even I have my geekiness limits! I remember going to some kid's house back when I was in high school, and those guys play-acted everything. I couldn't get into this! I preferred lots of books, numbers, stat sheets, etc. And of course, those little painted figures. But here on the forums, I don't have a problem with this style of RP. How would we start? This post has been edited by Lady Saga: Mar 8 2012, 04:43 PM

Or we could just have an RP coffee shop here and use it as a warmup. Like, I dunno. Maybe our characters are the working class and after a hard day of work, we go there, have a conversation, some barfights, overhear a talk between a ranger and a suspicious looking wood-elf....
Like I said, a warm-up of sorts. Before doing the main-thing.

Ohh, I like this idea, we need the character sheet first, but after that we could do the Coffee shop warm up, so us who are not used to RPing in forums could practice?

Whooooooah. That is one hell of a list you got there. I'll probably post my character later today, becuz.......
I'm still thinking what kind of errr, Inn or Tavern we should practice our RP skills in. I suggest the Inns in Chorrol, since you know. Its fitting that way.
KEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE.

Or Skyrim. Anywhere, really. I just said Chorrol because we're in a site called Chorrol and... I'm a geeky guy, I guess I just like total immersions. Hmmmm.. How about Riverwood's inn? Atleast theres actually a mill there and we're VERY familiar about its geography.

I don't mind in where, but if it takes place in Cyrodil let it be very close to the time that Oblivion takes place, Likewise in Skyrim, that will make things way easier for me. Riverwood's inn sounds nice,if chosen, now to find out why my Orc is there. Once we decide a time and place, I'll write up the character sheet
