Uhh

Rundown: [community profile] 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.

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.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

This is all super helpful, thank you! i have an additional question, what kind of availability do you need to have? when are games usually run?

No problem. There is a lot of late night stuff happening in Deco, particularly with the mods, who live on the surface of the moon. I've never once stayed awake past around 1:30 AM CST just for a game and I'm really, really active, but it's commonplace for games to start around 4-5 PST and go into the night, so if you work night shifts and can't tag during that time, it can be difficult. On the other hand, non-mod NPCs regularly run Earth time games for human beings, so it's not as if you won't be able to function at all. Furthermore, it's worth noting that even if your character doesn't personally attend a game, you'll be rewarded if your team wins. Which isn't to say it's good to avoid games -- they're fun! and if no one on the team attends you can't win -- but having to miss some won't necessarily cripple your character.

DA Unrelated but describing the other side of the world as being off the planet is kind of eyeroll-y.

"Moontimers" is a pretty commonly used term among Decollage players, including those who are actually in Australia/NZ, so it wasn't meant offensively. But fair enough.

okay but if it's someone asking about your game? pretty much implied that they're not in it yet/aware of your special terms for people on the other side of the world than you. just sayin

above anon!

Is there a timetable for when games generally happen?
