Tales of the World RPG?

Ugh. I hate having a cold. My sinuses have been having a field day and my nose won't quit being a nuisance. I'm really glad that I don't have work tomorrow or else I'd have to take a whole box of tissues

Bad Cherry, bad. Be confident.

I think people in the Tales fandom would actually be interested in this rp. (Or at least, that's the gist I'm getting from the people I've rped with.) o_o

It's just... how formal do you want this to be? ^^; Cause I'd be in if it weren't overly formal with its logs and journals.

I still have reservations about even bothering with it.

I'm not sure what you mean by "formal", but I didn't think my ideas were that formal. Character logs (keeping journals for the characters) were going to be optional, and mostly just for the player's benefit - something like you see in TotA where you can check your progress in the game that's written from Luke's PoV.

The only thing I can think of that's formal about it is there can only be one version of each character and the character would have to be in-character. No AU versions and stuff because, as you know, I hate crack and having two of the same character would make things difficult. As far as any other specifics, I hadn't really thought that far...

(Sorry to respond with my writing journal, but I'm too lazy to log-out.)

Ah, by formal, I meant requiring logs (as in, third person RPing) and journals (first person rping within character journal). For some reason, the more informal rps just do rping in a central community like compound_rp, only without the logs) and don't do either journals or logs.

I figured as much; allowing for more than one version of each character is basically a staple of the dressing rooms. I'm not sure what else to add in that department, sorry.

Oh, that. I was going to have quest logs be in third person, but it looks like the first person examples in the community you linked work just as well as (if not better than) third person would. Character journals would be first person, but they would be completely optional and NOT required.

And there wouldn't be a post length minimum like "write at least 3 paragraphs" or anything. I hate those... they're limiting...

I guess I was probably going for semi-formal. You'd have to request that another character join your party for a quest from that character's player but as far as characters just getting together and chatting around town or planning a festival or something, it'd be pretty lenient. Major plot-related quests would be planned by the mods but everything else is up to whoever wants to do it?

Those were my thoughts...
