    Zcreative, welcome to the RPGs, send you a PM to answer your questions. Didn't want to start a rant here, was afraid Teele might be tempted to use his newly aquired "Decimate"-button ;)

    Well, what is not, may yet become ;)

    And couldn't you have told me! That would have saved me the 5 minutes it took to write my own PM, I could have... *looks around* ... I could have been...

    Ah screw it, nothing here to do but write PM's and browse the site a bit. Stuck at school while waithing for the rest of the people of the debating-team to show up...

    Did you know we can create polls! :eek: (Yes, I only just found out, and yes, I am actualy so bored I don't mind that it's stupid I only just found that out. And yes, that was a correct sentence. And yes, I'll stop typing now :D)

    Just lettin' you guys know, I'm starting work on a new pair of guides for the RPG forums. As I put 'em together, if you guys wanna keep tabs on my accuracy, and offer advice/suggestions as to what should be included, that'd be great. :)

    To replace the guides Oasis made? Or just o add some stuff?

    Either way, I'd be happy to help out.

    To replace his. I asked Raven, and he gave me the go-ahead to do so. Normally, I'd just add to them, but Oasis' guide is copyrighted, so I'm not allowed. I'm certainly going to give credit where credit is due, however, and make sure I mention the old guide in the new ones. :)

    LOL! Doubt it would happen. Oasis is on kind of erratically and I don't think I've seen him do anything major around here since I started. Even so, far be it from me to neglect to show proper appreciation for work well done. :)

    I know I learned a lot from Oasis's guide. Night and day from when I tried (disastrously) to run and RP on a different site before reading it.

    Phoenix was the first RP I tried running here and it was a history-making barn-burner (what can I say? I had great players. :D) so hooray for a dedicated RP forum and some handy instructions!

    Suggestion: When you have your TOC pretty well knocked into shape, why don't you make a post for each section (and a couple of empty-ish posts at the end of each chapter for expansion - they can be soft-deleted until needed). Then you can make each TOC line a link to the appropriate page in the thread. Also put a Back to TOC link at the bottom of each post.

    Now we're all done sucking up to Teele (remember, I think your the most awesomenest GOD-mod), could someone (that's you Teele) figure out what we're going to do with 51?

    Emerald, well, vanished... 6 days since his last activity, and last time I checked, he didn't report a trip or any other type of absence. And with 51 GMless, we can't really continue.

    The place turned into a ghost town.

    So, what are we going to do? I've heard some people talk about a replacement GM. I've got to say, I'm not a huge supporter of that idea. Not because I don't have faith in you guys (I love you guys, especialy the awesomenest GOD-mod), but because 51 has some real mysteries in it, and I don't think any of us really knew what was going on... meaning that the GM would have to reinvent several aspects of the game, which requires time.

    So even with a replacement GM, it would take a long time before the game was up and running again, and I'm not sure if that's what we want.

    So, what do you guys think?

    ((Posted it here because of the GOD-mod-presence, and the fact this will reach a wider audience, who no doubt all have something sensible to add.))

    Alrighty, here's the situation:

    Two currently active RPGs: Exodus and Continent.

    One still waiting to start, because the GM wants more players: Ancient Legend.

    One just finished: Sanctuary.

    One stopped in its tracks due to its GMless nature: 51

    Now, I'm going to PM Emerald about it right now, but if he's gone for a while longer, he might not get to it anyway. I'm also going to talk to Chad, see what specific ideas he had in mind for it, and then, if the plans look good, we'll let it ride.

    Otherwise, I'm gonna have to lay it to rest.

    In either case, I'm going to see about releasing a new game we have on queue. ;)

    Gloom Kitty doesn't worm her way in! She can split the RPG's apart, like that bearded guy did with the sea :p

    Hey folks. Just letting you know, I'm taking the liberty of modifying Raven's 'RPG Games Coming Soon' thread into a 'Current and Future RPGs' thread. This will be another idea grabbed from one Oasis had up when I first joined, but was dropped not too long after. I'll be making updates to this thread as games are added, released, and finished.

    :)

    Well done on editing the thread Teele its a lot better now. You know whats going on more now and when to expect everything.

    AS much as i owuld like to carry on with 51 i dont know if it should without Emerald he clearly hadsome plans that we don't have an insight into and i wouldn't want somewhat to guide it in a different direction to it.

    I noticed ancient legend got archived it never had a chance to make it. 21 players was to much i think.
