I think we should have multiple ones, so that if someone doesn't like the plot line of one, they can choose another. Also, look at my post under the other thread. Maybe allow people to create threads, but only one for each city? Just my strange ideas.

For now, we should have ones in Remora, Belezza, and Giglia, as those are the cities we know most about! Once more books come out more cities get opened! Oh yes and when will this start?

yeah, I guess. don't know. I think... people might like to investigate an unknown city. We should have them for everyscity, but only one thread per city?

yes, I dont think that we have enough committed people to have mulitple stories going on at once. It would be very confusing as well...
The most popular suggestion seems to be that The RPG is based in Bellezza (at least from what I've read

GAH! Do you ever feel like you want to swear very very loudly? Really? I Just typed out an UBERLY UBER UBER long post for the RPG, with the premise, guidelines, character list, rules and general ettique. It's taken me nearly 40 minutes, to find all the research, copy out the character list, look up definitions, come up with the guidelines and phrase the premise decently. really. This post was kinda masive. but for some reason I hadn't got it copied into notepad, like I normally do when Posting anything of substance. And the computer has just gone an bloody deleted it. *screams and runs around in circles tearing hair out* C'est la vie, I'll do it again tommorrow. And BTW, I'm anticipating the game starting in about two weeks time, to allow people to claim there characters, and there will be fun things like question and answer posts, to allow people to get into character, and begin to understand it a bit, and also to let other people in the game know what your take on the character is. Also, as a side note, I will not be taking part in this RPG. I don't do much thread based RPG anymore (I generally find them too over run with Marysues...) But the main reason is that I've already committed myself sometime ago to a journal based RPG called Days of Wrath, in which I have chosen to play possibly the most complex character I've ever had the chance to write. It's also AU, so it's going to be quite hard work and time consuming, but enormas, enormas, beyond imagineing amounts of fun. I'll probably be pimping it in the HP section of the site, so head over there to be pimped. Also this november, I've signed up for NaNoWriMo ( www.NaNoWriMo.org) Where I am going to attempt to write a 50,000 word novel in one month. That's 2000 words a day. That is very hard. The idea of NaNoWriMo is to encourage you to stop worrying about spending hours pouring over one paragraph, and get it down hard and fast, and not worry about the quality, for now get it down, however bad it might be. Because pouring over each individual paragraph and word comes in the editing stage, and you cannot write a novel editing it as you go along. NaNo is meant to get you into the habit of writing everyday, and writing first, editing later. Also, working to a deadline is a magical way of making things happen. It's an excellent idea, but quite time consuming. I also have exams... *pouts* However, I will be modding away, and helping to come up with plot ideas and character advice, and am looking forward to this very much indeed! Look forwards to the opening of the OOC thread tommorrow!

Most of the RPGs I'm in are "no mary-sueing no godmoding no powerplaying no cursing no..." well, you get it. They're strict enough to be extremely fun. Poor you, about hte computer thing. So, Belezza it is.
