The more time I spend in You Enter a Dungeon (a RP subreddit), the more I'm discovering that I seem to have a modus operandi when it comes to these random RP threads. I seem to like to look for holes, some way to twist things in a way the GM didn't expect or intend.

In one thread, the GM set up a game:

You're in a stone room about 15 meters ( Read more... )

The "end game" (such as it is) of Neko Atsume is to get a memento from each cat. There's a small chance of it randomly happening each time they visit. It's usually small items a cat could pick up around the house or yard.

Shadow, no Ritzy Bitz for you! Take that back outside, ewww.

The DM of that "You Will Die" RP thread on reddit finally posted my death. Though I hadn't mentioned the nine lives idea, he thwarted it.

There's a part of reddit I visit, You Enter a Dungeon. It's a small RP/writing area. One person (the DM/GM) posts a description of a setting, and optionally gives an idea of the characters that might be there, and anyone can post what a character does. DM posts reaction, then player posts again... etc ( Read more... )

Recall how yesterday I posted about the Internet Wayback Machine not having archived a site I was looking for? Well it turns out Google is better than the Wayback Machine. I've never seen this feature mentioned before, I found it by chance.

Google archives stuff!

So tired. My new upstairs neighbors moved in a couple days ago, and sadly they're so loud. Even more sadly, they're loud before 5 AM. I'm such a light sleeper, their stomping keeps me up at night and wakes me up long before my alarm goes off (are they dancing in high heels and work boots? I think so!). Blah ( Read more... )

By chance, I found an old LJ of mine. It's an IC account, for a character I used to RP 5+ years ago. haken-the-dk Not only did I forget it existed, I forgot everything I wrote in it, so I get to read it now as if it were totally new to me ( Read more... )

I remember when I had to make an effort to NOT post more than once or twice a day. I'm not sure if my life is less interesting now or what, but now I have to make an effort to not let weeks go by between my posts. On one hand, that's sad. On the other, I feel like posting about "nothing" would be boring to people. I do still read my friends list ( Read more... )

While I RP a lot, it's rare to be in a situation where my character and another person's character really "click" -- when the two characters (and perhaps the two writers) work so well together that the sum becomes greater than the parts. There's plenty of good RP without that click, but when it happens and the characters (writers?) really connect, ( Read more... )
