rpanons | Everything is under control

Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt. "People may notice site slowdown/cache error pages. We're working on fixing. You can help: finish posts at 3k comments, not 5k or more." - Dreamwidth@Twitter

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.

So how about this: a game is your typical jamjar, based in a city, whatever. But to start off with, the city is a completely blank slate. All buildings are plain, nondescript buildings, all shops are named things like "bakery" or "gas station", and even the people are completely blank slates, like stick people or something.

When the characters are apped into the game, they bring in one thing that changes the setting somehow. For example, Character A may be from a world where the roads are actually waterways, like in Venice, so suddenly the roads in the city are waterways and all the cars are boats. Or maybe Character B is from a world where everyone keeps dinosaurs for pets, so suddenly the nondescript 'pets' are all dinosaurs.

Along with bringing one change whenever someone is apped, once a month there would be a game of some sort, and the winner of the game would get to bring one change from their home world to this world. Also there would be other ways to earn the right to make changes, possibly through buying the right? And changes could be overwritten by other changes, so if Character A decided that he didn't like Character B's pet dinosaurs he could win a plot game and change the pets in the city to normal dogs or something else. The plot of the game would be that this is a new universe, but it needs to be shaped in a creative manner, and once the Gods are satisfied with the changes made they'll let everyone go home.

Does this sound interesting?

This sounds very interesting!

What about making it a DR-style game, though?

No apps, no activity check, multiple versions of the same characters allowed.

Changes to the game would need to be approved by mods, but I think DR-style could work, yeah.
