Hey there MDS! I have been aware of the fact that you are a celebrated RP host, and I couldn't help but ask: How do you do it?
MDSVeritas repliedHow do I host RPs like I do? Well, I like stories and I really like games (currently working on my game development degree in fact), and I know that in RPs people like to be able to tell a collective story that is managed by a bunch of people but is still interesting and makes sense. So I come up with a story premise that is interesting, and then make sure the RP is designed almost like a game; fine tuning the elements so that players have the right instructions and tools to play off each oth...
Javelin434 repliedWell, that is the definition of a Roleplay, but from what I've heard it sounds like you have a special "gimmick" that sets you apart from the rest of the RP hosts. Do you have any idea what that might be? I figured asking the source would yield the best answer
MDSVeritas repliedWell a roleplay can really run the gamut in terms of what happens in it. It can be focused, open-ended, vague, specific, character driven, or plot driven. The specific type of RP I try to make are focused and specifically meant to play off characters. Some RPs will just open with a "Here's what the premise is, go!" Which is fine, but often leads to people not knowing what their options are, and can generally mean people not feeling directed towards any goal or knowing what goa...
MDSVeritas repliedgoal they should be trying to make for themselves. I try to stay really active in my RPs and tailor a situation that pushes players towards something and forces them to make tough choices through their characters. For one, I start all teh characters in a specific location, I give them distinct trials that test some element of their abilities, camaraderie, or morality, and I usually add in some mysteries and twists for them to discover and unravel over the course of the story. This way players...
MDSVeritas repliedplayers can start and move through a full journey. This means it isn't as open-ended as some RPs, but by being a little more focused and honed in players can really easily know what to aim for, who to aim for it with, and what next step to make. That leaves them with the actual fun part of RPing; the actual role play elements of acting out their character towards those goals and with those people. I try to handle things like environment, trials, and world design so players can focus on ho...
MDSVeritas repliedhow their characters would act. I also try to specifically add in moments where their character's must make really tough choices or chose between friends. This way the story is always about the players choices, not just my plot. I want my RPs to be a story players write for the most part, so I want to be able to take care of all the issues that come with trying to collaborate with a bunch of people in improvising a story in real time. I always think that characters are the best part of an...
MDSVeritas repliedany story, so I try to give players in my RP the fun of being able to focus on that part, while I take care of the background work of pacing the plot and keeping them active if they get bored, letting them relax if they get too busy, and let them feel like they're progressing in a real story, not just improvising a never-ending tale of character talking and fighting.
MDSVeritas replied(Also, sorry if my initial comment seemed uninformative. I wrote quite a bit more, but didn't realize that comments here cut off after a certain point. More or less I went over a shortened version of what I just said)

Well, i got my drivers trst tomorrow....im really hoping ill pass...
got my permit on the first try with ease, but itll just make me sk happy to pass my deivers tomorrow! i habe work RIGHT after so if i fail it might make me a little disheartened foe the rest of the dayJavelin434 repliedComing from a natural driver, just wanna say take it easy and don't get so nervous. Stay calm and you'll do fine. An unspoken rule for driving is to always remain calm... And to triple-downshift whenever understeering into a 90 degree turn when above 70 mph while activating the e-brake at the same time,,.
Soul Eater Evans repliedno pressure no pressure no pressure no pressure no pressure no pressure
javelinDracozombie repliedI remember my turns tended to be too wide and I got nailed for it, but I still passed.

Don't expect me to be on much tomorrow. I'm not getting Smash until way later in the day, and I don't want to come on and see all the hype I'm missing out on before then. ;_;

Welp, I can honestly say I survived tornado force winds!
Alicia Maddox repliedFortunately, it wasn't really a tornado. But it was tornado force winds that did all the damage.
Soul Eater Evans repliedi had a strong wind hit my apartment once.
a branch flew off, hitting the electric wire, causing a brown out

there was a bomb threat scheduled for tomorrow at my school, kinda don't wanna go now :l
Amber Cole repliedoh my! 0.0 that's crazy! Stay safe! Don't want any KH13 members blowing up! or anyone for that matter
MasterRoxas13 repliedStay safe lalala if you have to stay home please do , I don't want anything to happen to you
stay home if you have to. I think your parents would understand. Lalalablah repliedThey didn't cancel school because it wasn't a big enough threat, but they still arrested the kid and charged him for a felony
MasterRoxas13 repliedWas the kid just saying all that because he was getting bullied or was it because he was just crazy. Did he even know how to do something like that in the first place. a few kids from my high school made threats similar to the one your school went through and they got arrested right away. One of the kids who threaten to bomb my school, I was friends with so I just face palmed because I know he didn't know how to do something likes that nor did he have the means to actually do it.
Lalalablah repliedNo he just transferred a couple weeks ago, I think he did it as a joke the way it sounded
MasterRoxas13 repliedSo he transferred to another school to your school? It is sad how some people think something this serious, is a joke. Did he get expelled or suspended for doing this?
Lalalablah repliedYea he came from a bad area, and well he was charged with a felony so he's definitely not coming back
